Description

Infant phototherapy units are medical devices used to treat newborns with jaundice, a condition characterized by the yellowing of the skin and eyes due to elevated levels of bilirubin in the blood. These units emit specific wavelengths of light, typically blue or white, which help break down excess bilirubin in the baby's bloodstream, allowing it to be excreted more easily. Infant phototherapy units consist of a light source mounted above a bassinet or incubator, providing exposure to the newborn's skin. The light penetrates the skin and converts bilirubin into a form that can be eliminated from the body through urine and stool. These units are equipped with safety features to protect the baby's eyes and skin from excessive light exposure. Phototherapy is a standard treatment for neonatal jaundice and is often used in conjunction with other interventions such as hydration and monitoring of bilirubin levels. Infant phototherapy units play a vital role in managing jaundice in newborns, helping to prevent complications associated with high bilirubin levels, such as brain damage or hearing loss.
