    The objective of the study is to systematize the effectiveness of transcutaneous bilirubinometer vs. serum bilirubin for detecting pathological jaundice in newborns between 35 and 42 weeks. Material and method: A systematic review study with an observational and retrospective design, reviewing ten studies both nationally and internationally. In the results: The systematic review of the 10 articles highlights that 50% of the published samples indicate that both serum bilirubin and transcutaneous bilirubinometer are equally reliable methods for determining pathological jaundice in neonates. On the other hand, the remaining 50% refers to 10% where serum bilirubin is effective but with some toxicity, and 40% indicate that the transcutaneous bilirubinometer method is more reliable and usable in healthcare settings worldwide for detecting neonatal pathological jaundice by healthcare professionals. The conclusions regarding its application and use in hospitals show that the transcutaneous bilirubinometer is the most effective method as a preventive diagnosis for predicting and detecting pathological jaundice in newborns between 35 and 42 weeks, considering transcutaneous bilirubin as effective.
