Abstract | AIM: METHOD: RESULTS: Twenty-eight out of 100 neonates (mean gestational age 37.4wks; 59 males, 41 females) had auditory toxicity. Peak unbound bilirubin, but not peak TSB and BAMR, was associated with auditory toxicity (p<0.05) in neonates with severe (TSB <427.5μmol/L) and extreme hyperbilirubinemia (TSB ≥427.5μmol/L). Area under the receiver operating characteristic curve for unbound bilirubin (0.78) was significantly greater (p=0.03) than TSB (0.54) among neonates with severe but not extreme hyperbilirubinemia.
