With the increasing popularity of wearable devices and the Internet of Things, its application range is not limited to 3C consumer products, and more flexible and lightweight wearable smart products will be launched in the future. Recently, students from the University of Rhode Island (URI) will be introduced. The medical jumpsuit combined with LED phototherapy has been developed so that newborns suffering from jaundice can receive phototherapy at home, and doctors can remotely receive their physiological data.
Due to liver or spleen problems, patients with jaundice cannot normally metabolize bilirubin in the blood, causing yellowing of the eyeball and skin. At present, the mainstream treatment of jaundice is "phototherapy box", which uses the light inside the box to break down bilirubin, but the internal baby can not be in contact with the parent during treatment, and protective glasses are needed to protect the eyes.
The wearable device called "Jaundice Suit" is a baby jumpsuit with hundreds of LED lights that can cover the baby's arms, legs and torso, and the jumpsuit can be networked and collect physiological data of the human body. The internal LED lights can also be controlled remotely. Researcher Joshua Harper said the device compensated for the lack of equipment in the past.
Jaundice Suit's built-in LED light can decompose bilirubin in the baby's body, preventing children's eyes from being damaged by phototherapy. In medical research, doctors can remotely measure heart rate and activity status, and record data outside the hospital. Parents It is easier to participate in the care. However, the disadvantage is that it only covers the trunk and limbs and requires longer treatment time.
Huang Yier LED phototherapy research is effective
The Swiss Federal Institute for Testing and Development of Materials (EMPA) also had similar research results in early November. It developed wearable LED phototherapy pajamas for newborns of Astragalus, using special weaving methods to combine fiber optics with textile technology and set up with LEDs. For the light source of the fiber optic light pipe, the weaving angle is controlled to keep the wavelength of the light at about 470 nm and can be irradiated onto the skin.
Neonatal jaundice is one of the common conditions in infants. All countries have invested in related research, and with the advancement of LED technology, LED light therapy has also appeared. According to a 2015 study by the Aalborg University Hospital in Denmark, blue LED light with a wavelength of 459 nm and green pine LED with a wavelength of 497 nm have therapeutic effects on jaundice.
