Setup - Wrap-Around Panel
This section explains how to prepare your baby for a phototherapy
treatment using the wrap-around ber optic light panel.
The ber optic panel must NOT be covered by anything except with
the cover provided. Any other type of cover could cause a reduction
in light intensity. The setup instructions must be followed exactly.
This panel provides full coverage around the baby’s torso.
1. Place a disposable or reusable cover onto the panel with the
light emitting side of the panel facing the sheer side of the cover.
2. Place the covered panel under the baby’s torso, positioning it so
it is under the baby’s armpits.
3. Wrap the panel around the baby. Use the tape or hook and loop
tabs to secure the panel around the baby.
4. If the disposable cover becomes soiled, discard it and replace
with a clean one. The cloth cover may be washed with mild soap
and water.
NOTES
For a larger or more active baby, you may want to tape the panel to the baby’s
diaper.
To be sure the panel is not wrapped too tightly, insert your nger between the
panel and the baby’s body. Your nger should t easily.
You may wrap the baby in a blanket or put the baby in a sleeper.
WARNING
If using tape to secure the panel, do not adhere the tape to the baby’s skin.
