Intended Use
The BiliSoft LED Phototherapy System provides light therapy for the treatment of indirect
hyperbilirubinemia, commonly known as neonatal jaundice, in a hospital or home setting.
Description
The BiliSoft LED Phototherapy System consists of a light box and a detachable fiberoptic light
pad with a long, flexible fiberoptic cable. The fiberoptic cable delivers light from a high
intensity LED module in the light box to the fiberoptic light pad. The flexible fiberoptic light
pad is placed in a soft BiliSoft Pad Cover or BiliSoft Nest that is then brought into contact with
the patient’s skin. The patient is exposed to light in the wavelength of 430-490 nanometer
range (peak 440-460 nanometer).
Units are available with two fiberoptic pad sizes: large (25cm x 30cm) and small (15cm x
30cm). The large pad’s nominal spectral irradiance is 35 µW•cm
