RESUMEN: La ictericia neonatal es el signo clínico y visual de un incremento de bilirrubina en sangre, causando una coloración amarillenta en la piel del neonato. Esta patología, que aparece con gran frecuencia entre los recién nacidos, es potencialmente mortal, por lo que es de gran importancia la detección precoz y la puesta en marcha de un tratamiento efectivo. Durante este proceso se precisan una serie de cuidados de enfermería, los cuales se recogen en este documento. La finalidad de este trabajo es sintetizar la información encontrada tras la realización de una búsqueda bibliográfica en diferentes bases de datos, como Pubmed, Scopus, Dialnet o Web of Science. De esta manera, se detallan diferentes conceptos relevantes acerca de la ictericia del recién nacido, como la fisiología y etiologías mas frecuentes o los diferentes métodos de medición de bilirrubina, así como los tratamientos para la hiperbilirrubinemia mas utilizados a nivel global. Además, se evidencian las principales funciones y cuidados a llevar a cabo por parte del personal de enfermería durante la hospitalización de un recién nacido con hiperbilirrubinemia, como el mantenimiento de la lactancia materna y el vínculo entre padres y recién nacido, la realización de masaje abdominal o los cuidados relacionados con la fototerapia.
ABSTRACT: Neonatal jaundice is the clinical and visual sign of increased bilirubin in the blood, causing a yellowing of the newborn's skin. This pathology, which appears very frequently among newborns, is potentially fatal, so early detection and effective treatment is of great importance. During this process, a range of nursing care is required, which is outlined in this document. The purpose of this work is to synthesize the information found after performing a bibliographic search in different databases, such as Pubmed, Scopus, Dialnet or Web of Science. In this way, different relevant concepts about newborn jaundice are detailed, such as the most frequent physiology and etiologies or the different methods of bilirubin measurement, as well as the most used treatments for hyperbilirubinemia at a global level. In addition, the main functions and care to be carried out by the nursing staff during the hospitalization of a newborn with hyperbilirubinemia are highlighted, such as the maintenance of breastfeeding and the bond between parents and newborn, the performance of abdominal massage or care related to phototherapy.
