The liver of a newborn often has a low detoxitation capacity. Treatment to reduce bilirubin is usually required if a newborn icterus occurs in the first day of life. Photo-Therapy has proven to be a reliable method in the treatment of high bilirubin levels. Light transforms the bilirubin into a water soluble state by a photochemical reaction. This transformation enables precipitation by the gall bladder and kidneys. The blue part of the spectrum, with an absorption peak of 460 nm is particularly effective for the disintegration of bilirubin. The Dräger “blue” fluorescent lights emit rays precisely in this range and are, therefore, ideally suited to the treatment. With its high reliability and low running costs, the Photo-Therapy 4000 is recommended as an effective piece of pediatric equipment for use in the breakdown of high concentrations of bilirubin.
