In general, neonates have relatively higher levels of bilirubin composition, but their metabolic function for bilirubin decomposition is lower. Therefore, most neonates will experience physiological jaundice at a certain period after birth, and it is also easy for them to develop jaundice when ill.

1. Identify the cause and take appropriate treatment.
2. Reduce serum bilirubin through blue light therapy, advance feeding, and maintain bowel regularity.
