Clinical Need

The neonatal phototherapy eye masks currently used in NICUs across the world are not able to completely protect a neonate's eyes, as they tend to slip off constantly. A survey conducted by the NeoMates found that 12 out of 16 NICU nurces from Children's Hospital Orange County have issues with phototherapy masks sliding off the patient's eyes. The BiliBeanie introduces solutions to the clinical need for more stable and effective neonatal phototherapy masks.
