Purpose : To test the usefulness of a new jaundice meter, the JM-103(Minolta/Hill-Rom Air-shields, Japan) which uses a new probe to compensate for different skin pigmentation or thickness, and displayed actual bilirubin level instead of an index number as in the previous model, the JM-102, we compared transcutaneous bilirubin(TCB) with plasma bilirubin(PB) in newborn infants. Methods : TCB was measured on...

Korean newborn infants, regardless the causes of jaundice, who were admitted to the pedia- tric ward and nursery of wallace Memorial Baptist Hospital, Busan, since Nov. 1981. The results were obtained as follows: 1) The transcutaneous bilirubinometer is sufficiently precise to provide a reliable indication of total serum bilirubin concentration level with the resulting...
