A photo-treatment device includes a treatment region that has a front side at which source radiation is to be emitted and an opposite, back side. A plurality of light guides are located beside the treatment region. The light guides capture excess radiation peripheral to the treatment region and redirect the excess radiation toward the back side of the treatment region.

The present invention relates to a phototherapy system comprising an LED carrier (10) for being arranged on or under a subject (100), a set (12; 24, 26; 36) of LEDs (13; 23, 25; 33, 35), wherein at least a first subset (12; 24; 34) of LEDs (13; 23; 33) of said set is arranged in or at the LED carrier (10), a control unit (15) for controlling one or more LEDs (13; 23; 33) of said first subset (12; 24; 34) to switch between an emission mode, in which an LED emits electromagnetic radiation in the direction of the subject, and a detection mode, in which an LED generates a detection signal in dependence on the electromagnetic radiation incident on the LED, and a position determination unit (16) for determining the position of a subject with respect to the LED carrier based on the detection signals of one or more LEDs (13; 23; 33) of said first subset (12; 24; 34) in the detection mode, wherein the control unit (15) is configured to control one or more LEDs (13; 23, 25; 33, 35) to switch into the emission mode based on the determined position of the subject such that their emitted electromagnetic radiation provides phototherapy for the subject. A vital signs determination unit (17) is provided for determining one or more vital signs of the subject from one or more detection signals generated by one or more LEDs of said first subset.

A disposable phototherapy wrap comprising a plurality of light sources, wherein the disposable phototherapy wrap is configured to prevent direct contact and to provide sufficient electrical and heat isolation between the light sources and a body of a patient.

A phototherapy system having sensor(s) for detecting parameters associated with light generation by a light source and circuitry for modulating the light source based on the detected parameters. Also, a phototherapy system having a light guide interfacing with a light source at a connection point, an ambient light sensor, a connector light sensor for detecting (at the connection point) ambient light received by a light emitting pad that is directed into the light guide, and circuitry for determining whether the light guide is correctly connected to the light source based on a difference between the output of the ambient light source and the connector light sensor. Further, a phototherapy system including a light emitting pad having an identification tag and circuitry that modulates a light source based on the identification tag. Additionally, a phototherapy system including a casing encapsulating multiple light emitters and a light emitting pad.

Embodiments of systems and methods for an integrated phototherapy system that can include integrating a bili light, radiometer, and transcutaneous bilirubin sensor are disclosed. In some embodiments, the integrated phototherapy system has a control system that can receive and send data and automate features of the phototherapy system. Data that can be input by a healthcare provider and/or measured by the system can include treatment time, distance between the patient and the bili light, intensity level, irradiance level, bilirubin level, temperature, and the light intensity or irradiance of other light sources or pieces of equipment. The phototherapy system can be compatible with any electronic healthcare records system, and measured data can aggregated and uploaded to such a system.

Light therapy systems for example for the ambulant treatment of hyperbilirubinemia. An intelligent wearable light module for ambulatory light therapy disposed in a wearable light module housing arranged to be worn on the body of a patient for illuminating, during use of the module, the skin of the patient with light of a wavelength corresponding to the light therapy.

A phototherapy device comprising an outer garment wrap and a lamp assembly. The outer garment wrap has an inner surface. The lamp assembly has a base layer and a frame defining a plurality of inner chambers. A LED lamp assembly is positioned within each of the plurality of inner chambers. The lamp assembly is positioned on the inner surface of the outer garment wrap. A protective lamp envelope for receipt of the lamp assembly and attachment thereof to the outer garment wrap is likewise disclosed.

A photo-treatment device includes a non-opaque treatment substrate and a radiation-collector beside the substrate. The substrate is sized for a person at which radiation is to be emitted from above the substrate. The substrate has a front surface for receiving the person thereon and a back surface. The radiation-collector captures excess radiation peripheral to the substrate and redirects the excess radiation to the back surface of the substrate.

Embodiments of a photoarray system are provided. In one embodiment, a photoarray system includes a lixel array comprising a plurality of lixels each supporting one or more radiation sources; a power source associated with the lixel array; and a control system associated with the power source and each of the radiation sources, the control system comprising a master processor-readable medium configured to store at least a portion of data that specifies at least one lixel illumination pattern, the control system further comprising master processing structure configured to regulate use of power individually by each of the radiation sources based on the at least one lixel illumination pattern.

A phototherapy treatment apparatus and methods are provided. In particular, the present disclosure provides a phototherapy treatment apparatus configured to diffusely transmit light emitted from a light source to a patient.
