Revolutionary care for neonatal jaundice delivering NICU-intensity care at the mother's side
Neonatal jaundice/hyperbilirubinemia is one of the most common neonatal conditions, and the incidence jumps to 80% for preterm infants. Phototherapy devices are commonly used to treat this condition, but while in some countries newborns are separated from their mothers for treatment in the hospital, in others, these life-saving technologies are not even available.
Little Sparrows Technologies created bili-hut™ to provide the most clinically effective phototherapy treatment that can easily be set up next to the mother, whether in the hospital or at home, keeping her close to the baby when it matters most.
bili-hut™ is a unique portable high-intensity phototherapy device for jaundice treatment that offers an arched light configuration with increased skin illumination by at least 50% percent compared to traditional phototherapy devices.
The Product - bili-hut™
- sits right next to the mother's bed, in the hospital or at home
-
high intensity LEDs meet AAP recommendations
-
no bright lights shining in baby's or mother's eyes
- lightweight & can be folded flat for easy transport
Multi-directional illumination: The next generation of phototherapy
bili-hut™ has a patented, curved light array that focuses more light uniformly distributed, over additional skin surface area for superior jaundice treatment compared to traditional uni-directional overhead and under-surface devices.
Carefully designed to deliver safe and efficient treatment to newborn in home or hospital
bili-hut™ is a portable phototherapy device capable of battery operation.
Its treatment environment is designed for warmth & comfort, eliminating the need for an incubator.
The use of focused illumination reduces exposure risk to the eyes and single-use ‘nest’ reduces infection risk.

Introducing the latest solution to accessible jaundice screening
The bili-ruler™ is a non-invasive jaundice screening device that enables visual comparison of validated color swatches corresponding to ranges of serum bilirubin to the blanched skin on the tip of an infant’s nose. bili-ruler™ allows to rapidly approximate the bilirubin level and determine the need for further diagnostic testing and treatment.
- The bili-ruler™ has a strong positive correlation with both transcutaneous and serum bilirubin measurements. It was validated on nearly 800 multi-ethnic babies demonstrating equivalency to complicated hospital devices.
- An integrated lighting indicator ensures the optimal lighting conditions for examining newborns for jaundice.
- Precision color matching and state-of-the-art printing techniques assure exceptional color fidelity.
bili-ruler™ comes with a custom case that not only protects the device but also includes the instructions for use and a guide to serum bilirubin ranges corresponding to each color swatch.
