Chapter 1: Safety
It is important to know and understand the safety measure to be followed before using the phototherapy device. The precautions mentioned below are to prevent possible risk of injury to the patient or the operator and ensure correct usage of the equipment. WARNINGS • • • • • •
• • • •
• • •
Possible Risks: All phototherapy methods have possible risks including, but not limited to, bronze baby syndrome, diarrhea, hyper-pigmentation, minor erythema, skin reddening, skin blistering, and potential retinal damage. Monitor the patient closely for signs of these conditions during phototherapy. Photo Isomers: Bilirubin photo isomers might cause toxic effects. Porphyrins: Porphyrins are the by-products of the photochemical break down of the bilirubin molecule. In some cases, exposure of porphyrins to phototherapy could result in a localized reddening of the patient's skin. Therefore, skin assessment is recommended with all types of phototherapy per hospital policy. Photosensitive Drugs: The light generated can degrade photosensitive medications. Do not place or store any drugs near or in the illuminated area. Dehydration and Insensible Water Loss: The radiant energy from phototherapy lights can increase a patient's insensible water loss. Take appropriate measures to maintain the patient's fluid balance while administering phototherapy. Skin Temperature: Phototherapy light may affect the temperature in thermoregulation devices (incubator, radiant warmers or heated mattresses) and could result in raising the patient's body temperature when the device is in use. It is recommended to use an incubator, warmer or bassinet in skin controlled (servo) mode. Always monitor the patient's temperature to avoid temperature fluctuations during phototherapy as per hospital policy. Reflective Foils: Using reflective foils to increase the efficacy of phototherapy may cause hazardous increase in patient’s body temperature. Eye Protection: Do not look directly into the lamps. During treatment, always protect the patient’s eyes with protective eyewear. Periodically, as per hospital protocol, verify that the patient’s eyes are protected and free of irritation. Operator Safety: Users may experience headache, nausea or mild vertigo if the user remains in the irradiated area for a prolonged period of time. Using the Lullaby LED Phototherapy System in a well-lit area or wearing glasses with yellow lenses can alleviate potential effects. Regular monitoring: During treatment it is recommended to follow the measures as specified in the following guidelines: • Measure the patient’s bilirubin level periodically during treatment per hospital guidelines. • Turn off the light when checking the patient’s condition and skin color. • Follow standard procedures for monitoring patient temperature and fluid status. • Verify that the patient’s eyes are protected and free of irritation as per hospital guidelines. • Maintain a distance of 35 cm between the light unit and the patient for optimal light intensity. Adjusting Height: Do not adjust the height of the equipment with the patient directly under the unit. Secure the light unit in position before placing the patient under the device for therapy. Do not place the device in the path of any elevating bed. Hot surface: The lens surface on the lamp enclosure assembly could be as hot as 70 °C during operation. Do not touch the lens when the lamps are in ON condition.

Following EMC Regulation: Medical Electrical Equipment needs to be installed and put into service strictly according to the EMC information provided in this manual. Portable and mobile RF communications equipment can affect Medical Electrical Equipment. Environment: When using the Lullaby LED Phototherapy System adjacent to other equipment, it is important to verify normal operation in the configuration in which it is used. Do not use the Lullaby LED Phototherapy System in the presence of flammable anesthetics or gases to prevent any possibility of explosion under these conditions. When using the Lullaby LED Phototherapy System with Warmer ensure that the Lamp enclosure is not in the heat path of the Warmer.
