Read the detailed description

During the routine post-natal visit, trained research personnel will inform the mother of the infant or medical practitioner that a study in being carried out to better understand the knowledge, attitudes and practices of mothers and health care providers for neonatal jaundice. The investigators will then proceed to ask the mothers or health care professionals if they would be interested in filling out an anonymous survey that will assess their knowledge of neonatal jaundice and their practices, if any, in caring for this condition. No PHI will be included and no written consent will be obtained as the written consent would be the only link to the person participating in the survey. Verbal consent will be obtained and we will explain that their medical care and care of the children will in no way be affected by their answers to the survey. We will carefully explain that their participation in the survey is voluntary.
