GE Giraffe PT Light Meter

Yes, the GE Giraffe PT Light Meter is designed for full compatibility across several GE Healthcare phototherapy platforms, ensuring accurate and effective measurement of light irradiance (420 nm to 480 nm).It is compatible with the following systems:* Giraffe Blue Spot PT Lite* Lullaby LED Phototherapy System* BiliSoft Phototherapy System* BiliSoft 2.0 Phototherapy SystemThis meter is essential for monitoring LED performance and confirming that the prescribed therapeutic light dose is consistently achieved.

The GE Giraffe PT Light Meter is engineered for highly specific measurements essential for neonatal phototherapy.

• Critical Spectral Range: It precisely measures irradiance exclusively within the 420 nm to 480 nm blue light spectrum. This specific range is critical for the effective treatment of hyperbilirubinemia (jaundice).
• Measurement Units: Readings are displayed in µW/cm²•nm (microwatts per square centimeter per nanometer).
• Performance Monitoring: The meter also provides a vital performance alert. It notifies clinicians if the phototherapy system’s LED light output drops more than 25% below the specified performance levels, facilitating timely maintenance and consistent therapeutic delivery.

The GE Giraffe PT Light Meter is a vital tool for maintaining the efficacy and safety of neonatal phototherapy treatments. It ensures that clinicians deliver consistent light therapy for treating hyperbilirubinemia by providing precise, real-time measurements.

Key reasons this device is essential:

• Precise Spectral Monitoring: It accurately measures irradiance within the narrow, critical blue light range of 420 to 480 nm, ensuring treatment remains within optimal therapeutic levels.
• Performance Diagnostics: The meter helps clinicians manage equipment longevity by alerting them when LED output falls more than 25% below specifications, signaling exactly when to replace LED modules.
• System Integration: It is engineered for seamless compatibility with GE Healthcare phototherapy platforms, including the Giraffe Blue Spot PT Lite, Lullaby LED, and BiliSoft/BiliSoft 2.0 systems.
• Clinical Reliability: It provides consistent digital readouts in µW/cm²/nm, supporting rigorous quality assurance protocols and helping clinicians meet regulatory standards in neonatal care.

The GE Giraffe PT Light Meter actively monitors the performance of your phototherapy system’s LED modules.It is designed to provide a crucial alert notification when the light output declines by more than 25% from the specified performance level.This essential feature helps clinicians ensure timely module replacement, guaranteeing that the required therapeutic light dose is consistently delivered within the effective 420 nm to 480 nm blue light spectrum.

Yes, the device is thoughtfully designed for clinical mobility and longevity. To ensure the sensitive hardware remains protected during transport and storage, it comes with:

• A dedicated protective pouch
• A convenient carrying strap
• A sensor cover connected via a cord to safeguard the light sensor when not actively in use.

The GE Giraffe PT Light Meter ensures therapeutic effectiveness by focusing on two critical aspects of light delivery:

• Precise Spectral Measurement: The device is engineered to measure irradiance specifically within the therapeutic blue light spectral range of 420 nm to 480 nm. This guarantees that the measurement is relevant to the treatment of hyperbilirubinemia.
• Performance Alerting: It actively monitors the output of the phototherapy system. The meter provides a crucial alert if the light output declines by more than 25% below the specified performance level. This feature helps clinicians ensure consistent, high-intensity light delivery by prompting timely maintenance or replacement of LED modules.

The GE Giraffe PT Light Meter (SKU: GEH-5697449) is offered in a single, standardized configuration to ensure consistent and accurate irradiance measurements. This factory-new device weighs 1.60 pounds and is specifically designed for use with GE phototherapy systems, including:

• Giraffe Blue Spot PT Lite
• Lullaby LED Phototherapy System
• BiliSoft / BiliSoft 2.0 Systems

The GE Giraffe PT Light Meter requires two 1.5 V AA Alkaline batteries for operation.

These batteries provide approximately 72 hours of continuous operation under normal temperatures, ensuring the meter is ready for use across clinical locations.

Yes, the light meter comes with a carrying strap and pouch, making it easy to transport and store securely.

The GE Giraffe PT Light Meter is designed for clinical use, specifically in neonatal care units (NICUs) for measuring phototherapy light.
