Jaundice

Phototherapy is a treatment with a special light that helps rid

the body of the bilirubin by altering it or making it easier for

the liver to get rid of it.

Bilirubin is produced

by the breakdown of

red blood cells.

when bilirubin builds

up faster than a

newborn's liver can

break it down and

pass it from the body.
