Yellow alert: "exploring the medicolegal dimensions of neonatal jaundice"
GLOBAL JOURNAL FOR RESEARCH ANALYSIS(2024)
Abstract
Neonatal jaundice is a common condition that affects a large percentage of newborns, with the potential to develop into a serious condition known as kernicterus. While most cases of neonatal jaundice are benign, the failure to diagnose and treat it can lead to severe complications, including long-term neurological damage and even death. The purpose of this review is to provide a comprehensive overview of the medicolegal aspects of neonatal jaundice and kernicterus. The paper will discuss the epidemiology, etiology, diagnosis, management, and long-term complications of these conditions. Additionally, it will explore the legal implications of inadequate management and treatment of neonatal jaundice, including the potential for medical malpractice claims and other legal action.
