Primary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
Real-time estimation of bilirubin in neonates using multi-spectral and digital image data obtained from the hand-held device.  Sampling every 12 hours. In addition to this, the study will incorporate screening for bilirubin in neonates delivered at SSSGH at 72 hours of life as a part of the unit’s standard operating procedure. The hour specific Bhutani nomogram will be used to guide subsequent follow-up.

Brief Summary  

In the proposed research, we intend to develop and test a non-invasive transcutaneous bilirubinometer for neonates. The proposed device addresses the concerns and gaps in technology in a developing country like India namely:

- Low-cost

- Simple operational procedure that doesn’t not need trained professionals

- Dual-detection technology for better reliability

- Multi-sampling method for enhanced accuracy

- Automated internal calibration without the requirement of manual calibration

- Instant data transfer to the mobile-phone

- Zero maintenance charge (excl. electricity for charging)

The device will replace the capital intensive imported equipment in healthcare centers and present a novel and unique ‘MAKE IN INDIA’ product.
