neoBLUE ® newborn care LED Phototherapy The neoBLUE LED Phototherapy System incorporates optimal blue LED technology for the treatment of newborn jaundice. Meets AAP Guidelines for intensive phototherapy1 Safe • neoBLUE LEDs do not emit light in the ultraviolet (UV) range -- reducing the potential risk of skin damage Intensity: Delivers intensive phototherapy: > 30 μW/cm2/nm. • neoBLUE LEDs do not emit light in the infrared radiation (IR) range -- reducing the potential risk of fluid loss Spectrum: Utilizes blue light emitting diodes (LEDs) Designed for efficacy and precision • neoBLUE LEDs emit blue light in the 450-470 nm spectrum matching the peak absorption wavelength (458 nm) at which bilirubin is broken down2 Surface area coverage: Exposes length of baby from head to toe. • With a simple flip of a switch, change from single (> 12 μW/cm2/nm) to double (> 30 μW/cm2/nm) phototherapy • Unique red target light enables precise centering of light over baby Designed for convenience • Light enclosure is compact in size and lightweight • Smooth, curved edges of light enclosure provide added safety and ease in handling • Roll stand includes a gas shock mechanism, which maintains a safe height during pole adjustments Designed for multiple configurations • • Rubber feet supplied with light enclosure – allowing stable placement directly onto incubators • neoBLUE system positioned on an incubator Can be easily adjusted both horizontally and vertically, and tilted over a wide angle range Base of roll stand is designed to easily slide under most incubators and cribs www.natus.com
