Official Title: Determining Prevalence of Acute Bilirubin Encephalopathy in Developing Countries
Brief Summary: The investigators hypothesize that a new BIND (Bilirubin Induced Neurologic Dysfunction) scoring method adapted for the developing world (BIND II, developed by our team for use by health care workers), with additional modifications for community use (the community BIND, C-BIND), will improve the ability to identify infants with ABE and to distinguish ABE from other common causes of neonatal morbidity and mortality compared to currently available survey tools.
