Answer 1

Ans) A 4- day old newborn who has an elevated bilirubin level and requires phototherapy.

Explaination:

- In a newborn, higher bilirubin is normal due to the stress of birth. Normal indirect bilirubin would be under 5.2 mg/dL within the first 24 hours of birth. But many newborns have some kind of jaundice and bilirubin levels that rise above 5 mg/dL within the first few days after birth.
