How common are neonatal exchange transfusions in general? I'm reading a source that says it is one of the most commonly performed neonatal procedures and others that say that the procedure is so rarely performed that many have never even seen one performed (i'm assuming because the issue is fixed through IUT...correct me if I'm wrong.) 

1. Are Neonatal Exchange Transfusions less common than Intrauterine Exchange Transfusion?

2. How common is Neonatal Exchange Transfusion to treat hyperbilirubinemia (as opposed to other conditions)?

Would anybody be willing to share a detailed protocol on how a single-volume or double volume neonatal exchange is performed?

Thanks.
