What Is A Biliblanket?
A Biliblanket is a portable phototherapy device consisting of an LED pad for the treatment of neonatal jaundice (hyperbilirubinemia) in the home. The light emitted from a Biliblanket is used to break up bilirubin in the baby’s blood, reducing the yellowing effect in the baby’s skin and whites of the eyes.
While using this system parents can still hold, feed and play with their child. The Biliblanket is a phototherapy pad with an LED light source that wraps around the baby’s mid-section to provide maximum coverage during treatment. Blue light comes through the pad’s sleeve, which reduces dangerous bilirubin levels.

How Does A Biliblanket Work?
Biliblankets exert a blue/white light of varying intensity that permeates through a light fabric. The baby is placed close to or on the blanket during treatment. This light helps break down high levels of bilirubin in the bloodstream, which causes the discoloration of the baby’s skin.
What Is The Difference Between Home & Hospital Treatment?
For over 30 years, phototherapy treatment has been used in hospitals. Hospital treatment involves rows of lights shining directly on an undressed baby whose eyes are protected with soft eye patches.
Technology advancements have led to home phototherapy treatment through the use of Biliblankets. The blanket is wrapped around the baby and a pad of woven fibers is used to transport light to your baby.
Home treatment is quite popular with parents, doctors, and insurance companies because you avoid higher costs of inpatient treatment. With home phototherapy, your child can be diapered, clothed, held, and nursed during treatment. Some also consider it a better option because the newborn does not have to be separated from the parents.
