Technology Overview
BiliChek System
Non-invasive transcutaneous bilirubin measurement
Clinically validated accuracy comparable to laboratory testing
Disposable BiliCal calibration tips to reduce cross-contamination
Step-by-step on-screen guidance for consistent measurements
Barcode scanner and keypad for accurate patient data entry
Seamless integration with hospital information systems


Disposable BiliCal Calibration Tips
Designed specifically for use with the BiliChek System, BiliCal disposable calibration tips support accurate measurements while reinforcing infection control protocols. Each single-use tip automatically calibrates the device prior to measurement, eliminating the need for additional reagents or manual calibration steps. By using a fresh calibration tip for every patient, clinicians can reduce the risk of cross-contamination and maintain consistent performance.
BilEclipse Phototherapy Patch
The BilEclipse phototherapy patch allows clinicians to continue monitoring bilirubin levels without interrupting phototherapy treatment. Applied to the infant’s skin, the patch creates a protected measurement site that shields against phototherapy light interference. This enables more consistent and accurate readings during treatment, helping care teams track bilirubin levels without removing or pausing therapy.

About the BiliChek System

Accurate, Non-Invasive Bilirubin Measurement
The BiliChek System enables clinicians to assess bilirubin levels without the need for heel sticks or laboratory testing. Using advanced optical technology, the device directs light into the skin and analyzes returning wavelengths to isolate bilirubin levels while accounting for other skin components. This allows for fast, reliable measurements within minutes, helping clinicians make timely decisions while reducing the unpredictability associated with invasive testing.

Supports Safer, More Comfortable Neonatal Care
Designed to minimize stress and disruption, BiliChek uses a gentle, transcutaneous measurement applied to the forehead or sternum, and when used with the BilEclipse phototherapy patch, allows for monitoring during treatment without interruption. This approach reduces the risk of infection, eliminates needle-related trauma, and limits unnecessary handling of newborns during critical developmental stages.

Streamlined Workflow and Data Integration
BiliChek is built to support efficient clinical workflows with flexible data entry and connectivity features. An integrated barcode scanner and numeric keypad allow for accurate patient and caregiver identification, reducing the risk of manual entry errors. The system can interface with hospital charting and laboratory information systems, enabling seamless documentation, improved data accuracy, and consistent communication across care teams.
Reliable Design with Built-In Infection Control
The system features an ergonomic, lightweight design with step-by-step on-screen guidance to ensure consistent use across clinical staff. Disposable BiliCal calibration tips are used for each measurement, reducing the risk of cross-contamination while automatically calibrating the device without additional reagents. Combined with a rechargeable battery and intuitive interface, BiliChek delivers dependable performance while supporting infection control protocols.- Consumables

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the BiliChek System used for?
The BiliChek System is a non-invasive transcutaneous bilirubinometer used to assess the risk of hyperbilirubinemia, or neonatal jaundice, in newborns. It provides fast bilirubin measurements without requiring blood draws, supporting early detection and treatment decisions.
How does BiliChek measure bilirubin without a blood sample?
BiliChek uses light-based technology to measure bilirubin levels through the skin. It analyzes reflected wavelengths to isolate bilirubin while accounting for other skin components such as hemoglobin and melanin, providing accurate, clinically validated results.
Can the BiliChek System be used during phototherapy?
Yes. The BiliChek System can be used before, during, and after phototherapy. When used with the BilEclipse phototherapy patch, clinicians can continue to monitor bilirubin levels without interrupting treatment.
What age range is the BiliChek System designed for?
BiliChek is designed for newborns starting at 27 weeks of gestational age and can be used up to 20 days post-natal. It is suitable for a wide range of neonatal care settings, including NICUs and nurseries.
How does BiliChek support infection control?
The system uses single-use disposable BiliCal calibration tips for each patient, reducing the risk of cross-contamination. This eliminates the need for re-sterilization and supports hospital infection prevention protocols.
Do BiliCal calibration tips require any additional preparation or reagents?
No. BiliCal calibration tips are designed for single use and automatically calibrate the device before each measurement. This eliminates the need for additional reagents or manual calibration steps, helping streamline workflow and reduce user error.
How does the BilEclipse phototherapy patch improve measurement accuracy during treatment?
The BilEclipse phototherapy patch shields a small area of the infant’s skin from phototherapy light, creating a consistent measurement site. This allows clinicians to obtain reliable bilirubin readings without interference or interrupting ongoing treatment.
