2. Phototherapy
• Phototherapy, also known as light therapy, is a common form of
treatment that uses bright, ultraviolet (UV) lights on your exposed
skin. Phototherapy can treat several types of skin conditions,
including psoriasis and eczema.
• Phototherapy is a form of treatment that uses ultraviolet light to treat
skin conditions. Phototherapy can reduce the appearance of psoriasis
and eczema symptoms. This form of treatment is safe for all ages and
is a common treatment for newborn jaundice.
3. Ultraviolet light
• There are different types of ultraviolet (UV) light, or ultraviolet
radiation, that are part of the electromagnetic spectrum. The sun
produces UV light that reaches the Earth. UV light helps you produce
vitamin D, which is essential to help your body survive. Too much UV
exposure can damage your skin.
• The UV light used in phototherapy is the same type of light emitted
from the sun. Your provider will control the strength of the light and
monitor the length of time that your skin will have exposure to UV
light to prevent skin damage.
4. Types of UV light
• UVB: Ultraviolet light B (UVB) has a medium wavelength that reaches
the top layer of your skin. Overexposure to UVB light can cause
sunburns.
• UVA: Ultraviolet light A has a long wavelength that reaches the first
two layers of your skin and treats conditions that affect these deeper
regions of the skin. Overexposure to UVA light can cause sunburn and
wrinkles.
5. Types of lights
• Blue light therapy: Blue LED lights are similar to the lights emitted
from your cell phone. Blue lights (neoBLUE®) give off a blue hue and
are a common form of treatment for jaundice.
• Red light therapy: Red LED lights are lights that have a red hue. Laser
lights are a form of red light. These lights commonly treat wrinkles,
redness, acne and scars.

7. Devices
• In the inpatient trial, we used a phototherapy unit with fluorescent
tubes as the source of light (Medix LU-6T®) in the control group and
the NeoMedLight Bilicocoon Bag® in the treatment group.
12. Safe Device
• The DALE40 Phototherapy Radiometer is designed for the accurate
measurement of light radiation in the blue part of the spectrum from 400-
480 nanometers.
• The DALE40 Phototherapy Radiometer is designed for the accurate
detection and measurement of light radiation in the blue part of the
spectrum. As an irrandiance meter, it measures the output power of your
phototherapy units, saving cost by eliminating premature replacement of
lamps
• 1-Large LCD
• 2-Accurate to ±5% of full scale
• 3-Spectral range of 429-473 nm
13. • The DALE40 provides continuous measurement of irradiation by
simply placing the detection probe under the phototherapy light
(fluorescent lamps only). In addition to verifying output power, the
DALE40 saves costs by eliminating premature replacement of lamps.
Light measurement is according to the percent response given the
wavelength characteristics curve. The detector probe, included with
the unit, has a wide angle lens which matches the cosine receiving
function of human skin. Measurements are taken in µW/cm2, with a
range of 0-1999. This unit of measurement can be compared directly
to other units of measurement.
