Phototherapy Unit

A Phototherapy Unit is a medical device used in neonatal care to treat jaundice in newborns. Jaundice occurs when there is an excess of bilirubin in the blood, causing yellowing of the skin and eyes. Phototherapy works by exposing the baby’s skin to specific wavelengths of light, which helps break down bilirubin into a form that the baby can excrete naturally.

Phototherapy units are widely used in NICUs, neonatal care units, and pediatric wards.

Benefits :

  • Effective Jaundice Treatment: Rapidly reduces bilirubin levels in newborns.
  • Non-Invasive Therapy: Safe alternative to blood transfusions or other interventions.
  • Easy Monitoring: Allows caregivers to observe and access the baby during treatment.
  • Energy Efficient: Modern LED units consume less power and have longer lamp life.
  • Compact Design: Suitable for hospitals with limited space.
