Newborn phototherapy

Newborn phototherapy

A Newborn Phototherapy Unit is a specialized medical device used to treat jaundice in newborn babies by using controlled blue light to break down excess bilirubin in the infant’s body. Essential for maternity hospitals, neonatal units, clinics, and home-care setups across Kenya, phototherapy ensures safe, effective, and non-invasive treatment for infants with hyperbilirubinemia.

Modern phototherapy machines feature LED or fluorescent light sources, adjustable light intensity, low heat emission, and uniform light distribution to ensure maximum effectiveness while keeping the baby safe and comfortable. Many units also include height adjustment, digital timers, irradiance monitoring, and protective shields for enhanced safety.

Newborn phototherapy is widely used in Kenya to reduce the risk of brain damage (kernicterus), improve bilirubin breakdown, and support faster recovery. Designed for continuous use in neonatal care, these units are energy-efficient, durable, and easy to operate for both nurses and caregivers.

Whether equipping a maternity ward, NICU, pediatric unit, or home-care environment, a Newborn Phototherapy Unit is an essential tool for providing reliable and safe jaundice treatment. Available in Nairobi with fast countrywide delivery.
