BiliCalc

Designed by a pediatrician, BiliCalc uses the American Academy of Pediatrics 2004 "Management of Hyperbilirubinemia in Infants Greater than 35 Weeks of Age"to calculate the threshold for starting phototherapy based on the patient's age, bilirubin level, and neurotoxicity rk is. In addition, it will also tell you the patient's risk zone using the Bhutani Nomogram. This program allows you to input the infant's age at time of lab or manually input both the birth date and hour as well as lab date and hour. The app has a direct link to source journal articles, nomograms, and a list of the neurotoxicity risk factors. Supports US and SI units (mg/dL and µmol/L). Intended for use by pediatricians, neonatologists, physicians, medical students, and pediatric nurses who treat newborn infants in the hospital and as outpatients. BiliCalc has no advertisements!!! ***************************************** BiliCalc should be used only as a reference aid.
