Innovative medical equipment

Phototherapy light
This treatment supports babies in our neonatal unit who are born with jaundice. Babies who are born with jaundice have too much bilirubin in their bodies, which makes their skin and eyes look yellow. Blue UV light therapy helps babies get rid of  the bilirubin so it doesn’t become harmful to them.

Neonatal ventilator
Neonatal ventilation is an important part of the care delivered in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). Immature lungs and underdeveloped breathing require extremely gentle ventilation and advanced technology. This equipment supports the premature infant’s respiratory system without inducing damage to the lung or the brain.
