Bringing newborn care home: An integral mHealth solution for neonatal jaundice management.
Picterus is creating a digital platform for at-home neonatal jaundice screening, empowering families to monitor conditions and streamline healthcare referrals, improving outcomes and resource efficiency.
Projectdetails
Introduction
Neonatal jaundice (NNJ) affects 60%-80% of newborns worldwide (84-112 million/year). Ten percent will develop severe jaundice (SNJ), which can cause permanent brain damage or even death. This results in approximately 114,000 newborns dying each year, with 75,000 suffering severe long-term neurological impairments.
Current Challenges
A fast, point-of-care, affordable method for NNJ screening and monitoring in the first 2 weeks of life is crucial. However, current methods are insufficient, including:
- Visual assessment
- Transcutaneous device
- Blood test
Health systems face increasing pressure on their resources. It is imperative to develop more sustainable models of care and empower patients and their families.
Project Overview
Picterus is developing the first digital platform to enable NNJ screening by parents and caregivers at home. This platform will facilitate timely referrals to healthcare services.
Features of the Platform
Our recommendation tool will allow families to:
- Monitor NNJ at home with their smartphones.
- Enable healthcare workers to efficiently manage a greater number of families by avoiding unnecessary visits.
