This document presents treatment threshold graphs from the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) clinical guideline 98 on neonatal jaundice. The graphs show bilirubin thresholds for phototherapy and exchange transfusion in babies with hyperbilirubinemia. The guideline was developed by the National Collaborating Centre for Women's and Children's Health and thanks two researchers who allowed their Excel spreadsheet to be adapted in developing the treatment threshold graphs.

Expo is the most significant annual health and social care event in the calendar, uniting more NHS and care leaders, commissioners, clinicians, voluntary sector partners, innovators and media than any other health and care event.
Expo 15 returned to Manchester and was hosted once again by NHS England. Around 5000 people a day from health and care, the voluntary sector, local government, and industry joined together at Manchester Central Convention Centre for two packed days of speakers, workshops, exhibitions and professional development.
This year, Expo was more relevant and engaging than ever before, happening within the first 100 days of the new Government, and almost 12 months after the publication of the NHS Five Year Forward View. It was also a great opportunity to check on and learn from the progress of Greater Manchester as the area prepares to take over a £6 billion devolved health and social care budget, pledging to integrate hospital, community, primary and social care and vastly improve health and well-being.
