Care of the Skin
The skin serves as a protective barrier against chemical, mechanical, and biological
insults. |
The skin |
is also important in |
the |
regulation |
of body |
temperature and |
serves as |
|||||||||
a route of water excretion, |
especially |
in |
premature infants. |
The |
introduction |
|
of new |
|||||||||
intensive-care |
techniques |
has |
been |
associated |
with |
the |
increased |
survival |
of |
very |
||||||
small, premature |
infants. |
The |
immaturity |
of the |
skin |
of |
the |
very |
low |
weight |
infants, |
|||||
coupled |
with |
excessive instrumentation and handling, poses previously unrecognized |
||||||||||||||
problems |
for |
the |
nursing |
care |
of these |
infants’. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Please read, evaluate and implement the following recommendations as appropriate:
1.Please refer to the following standard of skin care recommendations as given in the
literature? |
when utilizing |
this device with all infants. |
Special attention should be |
||||
given to |
sanitation and |
skin integrity. |
|
||||
* |
Observe |
color, |
rashes, |

Clean |

This device is intended only for the treatment of existing hyperbilirubinemia. Use of
this device for prophylactic treatment, particularly of premature infants, is not recommended. These infants have extremely fragile skin? and various clinical studies have produced inconsistent conclusions concerning the effectiveness of
prophylactic phototherapy treatment 45.

Description
The Ohmeda BiliBlanket Plus Phototherapy System uses a fiber optic cable to deliver light from a high intensity lamp to a woven fiber optic pad. The pad is placed in a disposable cover that is in contact with the patient. The patient is exposed to light in the ideal 400 to 550 nanometer range for phototherapy treatment.
On units |
with the |
transilluminator option, |
unfiltered |
light in the visible |
spectrum travels |
through |
a flexible |
light pipe to appear at |
the tip of |
the transilluminator |
cable. The light |
from the cable is used to facilitate vascular sticks or injections. It is also used to find pneumothoraces.
The |
BiliBlanket |
Plus |
Phototherapy system |
consists of a light |
source unit |
and |
a |
light pad |
||||||||||
with |
a four foot long |
fiber |
optic |
cable. |
The |
light |
source |
unit contains |
a lamp, |
light filters, |
||||||||
a variable |
power |
supply |
for |
the |
light source, a |
cooling |
system |
and |
overheating |
protec- |
||||||||
tion |
near |
the |
lamp. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The |
light |
source |
lamp |
is |
a |
high |
intensity, |
tungsten halogen bulb with a built-in reflector. |
||||||||||
The |
reflector |
is |
coated |
with |
a dichroic |
surface |
which |
reduces |
the infrared |
energy |
transmitted. This bulb is specifically manufactured for use with the BiliBlanket Plus.
Although there will be a slight degradation over time, the bulb will maintain approxi- mately the same light intensity throughout its life.

1/General Information
A light filter, positioned in front of the lamp, rejects light outside the 400 to 550 nanom-
eter range. This filter blocks nearly all ultra-violet and infrared light; only the blue light is allowed to pass. This filtered light is focused on the inlet of the fiber optic cable.
Any |
light |
intensity |
may be |
selected |
by the front panel brightness rotary control. Table |
1-1 |
shows |
the light |
output |
values at |
the low, center and high positions. |

Power |
for the |

can be |
supplied by |
any |
standard |
AC mains |
power |
|||
source |
at either 50 or 60 Hz that have |
voltages in |
the |
range: |
90 |

180 |
- 264. |
|||
Power |
enters |
the |
light source |
through |
a receptacle that has |
an |
integral |
power |
switch. |
Cooling
A fan cools the light source unit. A thermal cutout switch located next to the light-filter protects the light source unit and fiber optic cable or transilluminator from overheating.
Fiber optic cable
The |
fiber |
optic cable |
contains |
2400 |
individual |
plastic |
fibers |
which |
transmit |
the |
light |
from |
|||||||||||||
the |
light |
source |
to the |
light |
pad. |
The |
light |
pad |
is |
constructed |
by |
weaving |
these |
fibers |
|||||||||||
into a mat. This patented process produces a |
pad with light over the entire surface. |
|
|||||||||||||||||||||||
These |
fibers |
are |
randomized |
in |
the |
cable |
to |
eliminate any |
local |
intensity |
gradients |
due |
|||||||||||||
to bulb hot spots, dust on the |
filter, |
dust |
on |
the cable |
end, |
etc. |
This allows |
the |
nearly |
||||||||||||||||
uniform, continuous blanket of light. A disposable protective pad |
cover |
is |
|
provided |
to |
||||||||||||||||||||
reduce the risk of cross-contamination and make the patient more comfortable. |

1/General Information
Disposable vest
A disposable vest is designed to secure the fiber optic pad to the infant. With the disposable vest, it is possible to hold and nurse the infant while continuing
phototherapy treatment. The disposable cover should be used for premature infants and full-term infants who can’t tolerate having the vest secured around the midsection.
Transilluminator
The transilluminator light pipe contains plastic fibers which transmit light from the light source to the tip.

Using the BiliBlanket Plus Phototherapy System
The disposable cover is designed for use with both premature and full-term infants. The
|
infant lies |
directly on the |
covered |
pad |
without |
any |
method of |
attachment |
between the |
||||
|
pad |
and |
the |
infant. |

|
WARNING |
А |
If there |
is a concern about |
exposure |
to direct |
light |
from the |
light pad, |
|||||
|
|
cover the patient’s eyes when |
using |
the |
BiliBlanket |
Plus Phototherapy |
|||||||
|
|
System |
to shield |
them or |
when |
the BiliBlanket |
Plus |
is |
used |
in conjunction |
with conventional phototherapy lights. Eye patch use with the BiliBlanket Plus may not be necessary under these conditions:
1. |
When |
using the |
vest. |
|
|
|
2. |
When |
the |
pad is |
kept against the |
patient’s |
back. |
3. |
When |
the |
patient |
is clothed after |
applying |
the pad to the patient’s chest |
or abdomen.
The disposable vest secures the fiber-optic pad to the infant. For premature and fullterm infants who cannot tolerate having the vest secured around the midsection, the
disposable |
cover |
should |
be used. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

The |
infant, |
along |
with |
the |
light |
pad, |
may |
be covered |
or wrapped |
in a |
blanket. |
The |
infant |

will continue to receive effective phototherapy treatment as long |
as |
the disposable- |

covered, |
light-emitting |
section |
of |
the |
pad |
remains in |
contact |

The |
disposable cover |
should |
be |
the |
only |
material between the light-emitting |
side |

pad |
and |
the |
infant's skin. If the disposable cover becomes |
soiled, |
it |
