National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) in the UK has published guidelines on how to manage neonatal jaundice.

The guidelines provide guidance on the recognition, assessment and treatment of neonatal jaundice in term and preterm infants from birth to 28 days.

A series of documents are published at http://www.nice.org.uk/guidance/CG98

In the full guidance document, there are treatment threshold graphs for infants born from 23 gestational weeks and onwards.
