A method of providing phototherapy to a patient. In some embodiments, the method includes the steps of placing a patient on a rigid support surface of a phototherapy device, the support surface being adapted to support the patient without substantial deformation; transmitting light from a light source through a first portion of the support surface to the patient; and limiting light transmission from the light source through a second portion of the support surface.

Phototherapy method

A phototherapy system having a rigid support surface adapted to support a patient without substantial deformation; a light source disposed so as to transmit light through the support surface; and a mask adapted to permit light transmission from the light source through a first portion of the support surface and to limit light transmission from the light source through a second portion of the support surface.

Phototherapy device

A phototherapy system and device is disclosed, including an array of light sources from at least two distinct spectral light regions. The first spectral light region represents the treatment color, and thus is chosen for its phototherapeutic value. For instance, blue light may be the treatment color for hyperbilirubinemia. The second spectral light region represents the balancing color, and is chosen for its ability to mitigate discomfort that may be caused by viewing the treatment color. When blue is the treatment color, yellow has been found to be an effective balancing color.

Phototherapy system and device

An apparatus and method for evaluation of hearing loss is disclosed. The apparatus and method use evoked Auditory Brainstem Responses (ABR) to determine if the subject is able to hear iteratively administered click stimuli. The present invention evaluates the sufficiency of the patient connections, namely earphones and electrodes, to the evaluation device. More particularly, the present invention determines if the earphones are detached or deformed, if the electrodes have been reversed, or if the electrodes have become detached.
