pediatric pda application in clinical practice pediatricians find categorized reviews of handheld software and programs that are useful in bedside pediatrics this page is about calculation of bilirubin phototherapy requirements
 
  • The name is highly indicative of the function it is really a bilirubin tool.
  • The program is a replacement to the look up of that famous                         
    AAP nomogram posted in almost every neonatal unit.
  • Bilitool simply gather the 2004 guidelines, the nomogram, and                      
    the risk factors together and calculates the estimated risk                           
    and tells us whether we should start phototherapy or not in                           
    a very simple Palm based interface made freely available and                  
    recommended by the AAP's COCIT.

can input the age and bilirubin
level and the result page details
the lower, medium, and high
risk categories. See Left

The Bilitool is sufficiently clear
about the references so that
we are aware of mechanism
by which the results are
obtained. See Right
