Managing Jaundice in the Breastfeeding Infant - La Leche League International
Physician's Seminar 2008
Many health care providers regard the LLLI Physicians' Seminar as the premiere learning opportunity for breastfeeding information. The LLLI Health Advisory Council, comprised of physicians in the areas of pediatrics, obstetrics, allergy, nutrition, psychology, family practice and related fields, develop and contribute to the information presented. The annual event was originally launched by the LLLI Health Advisory Council to fill the need for educating their colleagues about breastfeeding.
How do good- and poor-quality breastfeeding affect the levels of bilirubin? A world-renowned expert on jaundice will advise on the management of jaundice in the breastfeeding infant based on understanding the mechanisms of jaundice. Recent guidelines on neonatal jaundice from the American Academy of Pediatrics will be reviewed.
