OverviewBL20 Phototherapy Mattress is a neonatal device designed to deliver 360° sandwich phototherapy. It is intended to be used in combination with overhead phototherapy units (e.g. BL60/BL70) to expand effective treatment coverage while maintaining neonatal environmental stability.
Key benefits- 360° sandwich phototherapy to increase effective irradiated area
- Improves overall therapeutic efficiency when combined with overhead phototherapy
- Reduces adverse stimuli and the risk of physical injury during transfers between devices
- Partitioned controller limits incubator opening to minimize heat and humidity loss
Partitioned controller — features- 3 selectable intensity levels, up to 63 μW/cm²/nm
- Timer: count up or count down
Detached design — bottom phototherapy- Detached bottom creates an air gap to slow temperature rise and improve treatment effectiveness
- Integrated compartment for X‑ray detector to facilitate imaging without removing the mattress
Applications and clinical notes- Designed for neonatal phototherapy, particularly treatment of neonatal jaundice
- Used in NICU and delivery settings in combination with overhead units to provide continuous coverage
