The BiliCare™ Transcutaneous Bilirubin Meter:

Accurately and conveniently measures and monitors the level of bilirubin to assess the risk of neonatal hyperbilirubinemia. Perfect for use in the NICU or newborn nursery. 

The BiliCare System measures the level of bilirubin using a patented technology to provide accurate results.
BiliCare technology is based on spectroscopy—measuring substances using light at varying wavelengths.
The BiliCare 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 differences in pressure applied or angle of device.

ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY FOR ACCURATE:

Speed and convenience
• Reduces number of blood tests via heel puncture
• Can use just one measurement or average 2–3 measurements
• Can be used with or without entering baby’s ID
• Large, clear display for easy use
• Resistive touch screen can be used with or without gloves
• Menu-driven user interface minimizes training needs, facilitating use by multiple caregivers
• Memory up to 40 measurements saves time in transcribing and comparing results
• Barcode scanner facilitates quick and accurate entry of caregiver and baby identification

Accuracy
• The BiliCare System was validated in clinical studies to produce results comparable to blood tests
• Repeatability testing confirms reliable results
• Option to enter both patient and user identification facilitates hospital audits and quality assurance

Low cost of ownership
• The BiliCare System is capable of working with or without disposable tip cover
• LEDs do not require routine calibration, minimizing downtime associated with
maintenance and cost associated with service
• Long-lasting, rechargeable battery with cradle allows extended use
and ease of recharging

THE NEXT GENERATION TRANSCUTANEOUS BILIRUBIN METER:

• Simple for the User & Gentle on the Baby
– Reduces the need for or number of heel sticks by providing accurate measurements at the bedside
– Only requires a single measurement per test
• LED Transmission Technology Reduces User Variances & Maintenance Requirements
– Less sensitive to motion artifacts & measurement differences based on user technique
– LEDs do not deteriorate over time eliminating the requirement for routine device calibration
