<p><strong>&nbsp;</strong></p> <p>Bronze Baby Syndrome is a rare, benign, and reversible condition observed in neonates undergoing phototherapy for hyperbilirubinemia. It is characterized by a distinct greyish -brown or bronze discolouration <br>of the skin, mucous membranes, and urine. The syndrome is commonly associated with conjugated hyperbilirubinemia and impaired hepatic excretion of bile pigments. Although the unusual pigmentation may <br>cause parental concern, the condition is not harmful and usually resolves after discontinuation of phototherapy or once jaundice subsides. Nursing management focuses on continuous monitoring of bilirubin levels, assessment of skin changes, evaluation of liver function, and providing reassurance and education to caregivers. Early recognition of the condition is crucial to differentiate it from other serious neonatal disorders and to ensure safe continuation of treatment.</p>
