The dropdown was labeled just "Risk Factors" with option "None (lower risk)"
— ambiguous because AAP 2022 uses "risk factors" in two distinct senses:
(a) risk factors for developing hyperbilirubinemia (screening-only, do not
change thresholds) and (b) neurotoxicity risk factors (do change thresholds).
Only (b) belongs on the threshold nomogram, and a clinician glancing at the
form could easily pick wrong.
Changes:
- Label: "Neurotoxicity risk factors"
- Options: "Absent" / "Present (any one qualifies)" — removes the misleading
"None (lower risk)" phrasing (no-risk curve actually has HIGHER thresholds)
- Expandable details listing the 6 specific AAP 2022 neurotoxicity risk
factors (isoimmune hemolysis, G6PD, other hemolysis, sepsis, albumin <3.0,
clinical instability <24h) with explicit note that GA <38w is handled by
the per-week curve, not by this checkbox — prevents double-counting.
