We present the results of an initial trial of a transcutaneous bilirubinometer under Australian conditions. The method is non-invasive and we obtained an acceptable degree of precision. The meter readings were influences by the site where reading was taken, and by phototherapy. Shading the recording site from phototherapy lights did not improve precision. We constructed regression lines for translation of meter recordings from forehead and abdomen to serum bilirubin levels.
我们展示了在澳大利亚条件下对经皮胆红素仪进行初步试验的结果。该方法是非侵入性的，并且我们获得了可接受的精度。仪器读数受测量部位以及光疗的影响。对记录部位遮挡光疗灯并不能提高精度。我们构建了将额头和腹部的仪器读数转换为血清胆红素水平的回归线。
