Project Description
Accurately and conveniently measures and monitors the level of bilirubin to assess the risk of neonatal hyperbilirubinemia. The BiliCare System measures the level of bilirubin using a patented technology to provide accurate results. It’s technology is based on spectroscopy. The System measures the level of transcutaneous bilirubin in the newborn by transmitting light at different wavelengths through the outer ear. The amount of light absorbed by the bilirubin is calculated according to a customized algorithm.
Less sensitive to motion artifacts
Not sensitive to di»erences in pressure applied or angle of device
LEDs do not deteriorate over time. No shift in power or in wavelength means no need for routine calibration. Optional calibration check allows user to con!rm calibration when desired. The calibration check process is quick and easy & provides immediate results.
