Growing Burden of Neonatal Jaundice

Neonatal jaundice affects millions of newborns each year, particularly in developing countries. It occurs when bilirubin levels in the blood become elevated, leading to yellowing of the skin and eyes. If left untreated, severe jaundice can cause kernicterus, a rare but serious form of brain damage.

Phototherapy remains the gold standard treatment for jaundice in newborns. Using specific light wavelengths, phototherapy breaks down excess bilirubin into forms that can be easily excreted by the infant’s body.


Technological Advancements Transforming Infant Care

The global infant phototherapy device market has witnessed substantial innovation over the past decade. Manufacturers are introducing devices with:

·        Energy-efficient LED light sources that emit optimal therapeutic wavelengths.

·        Portable, lightweight, and mobile units for ease of use in neonatal wards and clinics.

·        Hybrid devices combining multiple light sources for improved treatment outcomes.

·        Advanced safety features to protect infants from overheating or overexposure.

LED-based phototherapy devices, in particular, have gained popularity due to their lower energy consumption, longer lifespan, and higher treatment efficiency compared to conventional light sources.
