The irradiance produced by phototherapy units in use on a neonatal unit was measured. The phototherapy tubes were found to decline at a variable rate. Heat shields used to decrease heat and evaporative losses in the very low birthweight infant reduce irradiance and may appreciably limit the effectiveness of phototherapy.
对新生儿病房正在使用的光疗设备产生的辐照度进行了测量。发现光疗灯管以可变速率衰减。用于减少极低出生体重儿热量和蒸发损失的隔热罩会降低辐照度,并可能显著限制光疗的效果。
