Phototherapy and the use of heat shields in very low birthweight infants.

P R Stutchfield1, N Modi, A M Weindling.   

Abstract

The irradiance produced by phototherapy units in use on a neonatal unit was measured. The phototherapy tubes were found to decline at a variable rate. Heat shields used to decrease heat and evaporative losses in the very low birthweight infant reduce irradiance and may appreciably limit the effectiveness of phototherapy.
