Revolutionizing the Phototherapy Industry

For more than three decades, phototherapy has been the standard for treating neonatal jaundice. The benefits of utilizing phototherapy devices instead of sunlight include: 24 hour treatment, greater efficacy by narrowing the spectral range to 430-490nm, improved temperature regulation, and the elimination of harmful UV irradiation to the patient from sunlight exposure. The BiliBee LED is a highly-portable device that utilizes an LED illuminator pad for the treatment of neonatal jaundice (hyperbilirubinemia). Treatment is applied by placing the patient on the BiliBee LED pad while a disposable sheath separates the infant from the pad’s surface. Treatment is intended to be applied 24 hours a day until the infant’s bilirubin levels have been effectively lowered to an acceptable level according to AAP guidelines.

AAP GUIDELINES FOR PHOTOTHERAPY EQUIPMENT

• Irradiance level of at least 30 ±10µ W/cm²/nm
• Wavelength between 430 nm to 490 nm
• Larger surface area especially for combating extremely high bilirubin levels
• The distance between the infant and the light source is critical to the Spectral Irradiance Level

KEY ELEMENTS FOR PHOTOTHERAPY EQUIPMENT

• Irradiance Intensity
• Light Spectrum
• Surface Area Coverage
• Distance
