EP 81 - Jaundice
from Pulse Check with Archer Nursing · host Archer Review
In this episode, Dr. Morgan Taylor, DNP, CPNP, CCRN breaks down newborn jaundice, one of the most common (and often misunderstood) conditions you’ll see in mother–baby, pediatrics, and on exams. We walk through why newborns turn yellow, how bilirubin is produced and cleared, and—most importantly—how to recognize when jaundice crosses the line from normal physiology to a true emergency. Using a real-world bedside scenario, this episode helps you connect the pathophysiology to what you actually see and do as the nurse. This episode is essential for nursing students, new grads, and anyone caring for newborns who wants to feel confident distinguishing “normal yellow” from “act now.” If you’re prepping for exams or clinicals—and want jaundice to finally make sense—this one’s for you.
