Technical specifications :
- The cylindrical body of the submarine is made of shock-resistant and heat-insulating fiberglass , as the submarine's calf is antistatic .
- Contains a number (16) Fluorescent bulb (UV rays)
- Philips type (TL-52) Wavelength (400-540) Nanometers .
- The bulbs are easy to disassemble and install, surrounded by a transparent casing that isolates the bulbs from the child .
- The casing is calibrated in such a way that any liquid accidentally spills by running away from the treatment bulbs without any short circuit .
- The shelf life of the bulbs from 2000 Ali 2500 An hour of work .
- The device is equipped with fans for cooling the bulb compartment, transformer compartment and electrical circuit .
- The front face of the submarine is covered with a layer of Black class (femme) to protect the treatment supervisors from UV rays .
- The device contains two cumulative time counters to measure the total operating hours of the bulbs to determine the time of their replacement (each eight bulbs has its own counter in case the submarine is operating at half its capacity of only 8 bulbs ).
- The device also has a timer (Timer) to determine the duration of the session .
- Each processing bulb has a ” signal ” (Led) bulb attached to it so that it stops working simultaneously with the stopping of the processing bulb
What is the difference between submarine therapy and phototherapy treatments that are placed over the nursery
- Reducing the percentage of children's blood replacement by 96 % Even in cases where the percentage of bile is reduced to (20-24) .
- Reduce the treatment time by one day (three or four sessions ) the session ranges between 3-4 hours and each session is interspersed with a quarter of an hour for the baby and breastfeeding .
- The child remains lying in bed and there is no need to stir during the treatment due to the spread of treatment bulbs in a circular shape around the child (360) degrees .
- The hospital is provided with a large number of nurseries because the treatment of the child from bile with phototherapy is carried out by placing the child within the nursery and exposing the Rays from outside the nursery through a phototherapy device that contains four or five treatment bulbs only, which takes several days, sometimes up to ten days, and this is due to a negative financial return to the hospital and the child's parents .
- Number of processing bulbs (16 treatment bulbs) After measuring the light intensity and comparing the two treatments, the light intensity reading for phototherapy is 4% .
- The light intensity reading ratio of the submarine reached 19% There is a huge difference between the two types and this difference shows a distinction and a big difference in the speed and feasibility of treatment .
Important notice :
- The baby's eyes and testicles should be covered during processing .
