Phototherapy Light Meter

Last Update: January 11, 2013

Global Healing has developed a validation instrument for tube-based phototherapy lights. Phototherapy, the primary means of treating bilirubimena, requires a means of measuring irradiance, and commercial units cost more than $2,000, a cost that is unreasonable for hospitals in low-resource settings.

Global Healing is giving away 1,000 meters to hospitals in the developing world who have phototherapy lights. For more details and information, and to apply, click here.
