What is it indicated for?

For in vitro diagnostic use in the quantitative determination of total bilirubin in serum and plasma of adults and neonates on the ADVIA® Chemistry systems. Measurement of total bilirubin, an organic compound formed during the normal and abnormal destruction of red blood cells, is used in the diagnosis and treatment of liver, hemolytic hematological, and metabolic disorders, including hepatitis and gall bladder block. A total bilirubin measurement in newborn infants is intended to aid in indicating the risk of bilirubin encephalopathy (kernicterus).

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
