5. PRECAUTIONS
5.1. BILITEST meets the IEC requirements imposed upon the devices
with built-in power source.
5.2. Never attempt to disassemble the device. Non-expert service of the
device may damage it.
5.3. After BILITEST being exposed to cold, it should be kept in its
Carrying Case for about four hours at room temperature before use.
5.4. Do not leave BILITEST near heat sources, or on direct sunlight,
excessive dust or mechanical shock.
5.5. Do not drop, knock or shake BILITEST. Rough handling can break
internal parts of the device.
6. THE PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION AND THE DESIGNE
OF THE DEVICE
Transcutaneus bilirubinometry is based on the phenomenon of a
diffusion of a bilirubin from a blood into surrounding tissue (derma). The
increasing of bilirubin concentration in blood results in increasing of
bilirubin concentration in derma and, on the contrary, decreasing of bilirubin
concentration in blood (for example, at a hemotransfusion) results in return
movement of a bilirubin from derma into a blood till between these two
systems there will come balance.
The bilirubinometer is the optical electron device, which consists of
the trochlea mobile lightguide head, a control panel and a battery
compartment for three elements of a feed on 1,5 V direct current (such as
or LR03). Appearance of the device is in fig. 1.
23.03.200420.6.2008 11:57:00 AM
Fig. 1.
The trochlea mobile lightguide head consists of an analog display
and an optical part. On the analog display the amplifier of a photocurrent,
the stabilizer of a current of light-emitting diodes, the device of analogdigital transformation are posed. In an optical part two light-emitting diodes,
two interference light filters "dark blue" and "green", and also three light
guides are fixed: two of them for transmitting a light stream from lightemitting diodes to a skin and the third - to return light stream transmitting
on photo diodes, diffused by skin. On the control panel the microcontroller
and the digital device indications are placed.
The device measures the light intensity reflected by hypodermic
tissues, in two ranges of wavelengths. Using and the measured values the
microcontroller calculates the transcutaneus bilirubin index (TBI).
Calculation is made under the formula received in the experimental way and
giving the maximal correlation between bilirubin in serum and parameter
TBI. TBI is complex function of the accepted signals and factors C1, C2, C3,
C4. Values of these factors are established by manufacturer and can be
changed (checked up) by pressing of buttons L and R according to paragraph
9.3 section 9 Probable malfunctions and ways of repairing of this manual.
After pressing the head of the device the following processes begin:
1.The lightguide head is a little planged inside of the device. The
cycle of gauging is started. The device produces a sound signal. The light
stream, alternately emanated by light-emitting diodes, is distributed on
23.03.200420.6.2008 11:57:00 AM
transmitting light guides and gets in a so-called zone of contact - on an

examined site of a dermal surface.
2. Partially the light stream is re-reflected (dissipated) in the back
direction, at the same time there is its absorption by bilirubin contained in
hypodermic tissues and by haemoglobin in the special zone of a spectrum.
The reflected (dispersed in the opposite direction) and changed its spectral
structure light stream passes through a reception light guide. The reception
light guide has the Y-shaped form and "dark blue" and "green" interference
light filters are fixed on its bifurcated ends.
3. The light stream, passed through light filters, gets to photodiodes.
On photodiodes four signals used at calculation of value TBI are created.
4. At the end of gauging (a sound signal stops) the symbol "-O-"
appears on a display and then digital value TBI is displayed. Value of TBI
remains on the display during 20-30 seconds.
23.03.200420.6.2008 11:57:00 AM
7. PREPARATION AND THE OPERATING

7.1. The device should be in an instrument-case if gauging are not
carried out. Thus the lightguide head adjoins to a white rectangular and the
device periodically performs calibration.
At removal the device from a case it is ready to gauging in 10
seconds.
7.2. The device serviceability control is carryed out over control light
filters (RC), fixed in a case.
The check up on RC1 and RC2 is carried out at the installation of
the device, then periodically (once a month) or in case of doubt as a result of
gauging TBI. For the check of serviceability of the device over RC1 and
RC2 it is necessary:
1) Take the device out from the case, and put the case on a level
horizontal surface (table). Surface of RC should be clean. If it is necessary
wipe surface RC with a soft dry fabric (gauze, lawn);
2) Not pressing the device, put it so that the surface of lightguiding
head end face densely adjoined to a surface of control light filter RC1 and
was perpendicular to it ;
ATTENTION: if during a measuring cycle the device will be
inclined under an angle to plane RC results of gauging can be incorrect.
3) Slightly press the device, not inclining it, until occurrence of a
sound signal. Thus on a display there will be displayed at first - - - , next
"-0-", then "number". After ending of a sound signal stop pressing
("number" will be kept on a display about 20-30 seconds). If after the
ending of pressing a display it is displayed and kept - - - , it means, that
the device has not made gauging and it is necessary to carry out gauging on
RC for a second time.
If during a measuring cycle on a display instead of -0- other
symbol was displayed it is necessary to check up installation of factors
according to paragraph 9.3. of the manual.
Measured on RC values of serviceable device should not exceed the
values resulted in section 11 "Acceptance certificate" of the manual (the
same values are specified on a label pasted in a case to the device near RC).
In the same way carry out the gauging on control light filter RC2.
The note: it is not recommended to carry out the gauging near to
bright sources of illumination.
If instrument readings on RC do not meet required ones:
1) Repeat gauging, taking care of perpendicularity of the device to
RC
2) Check up the correctness of calibration.
23.03.200420.6.2008 11:57:00 AM
Check up the correctness of calibration: get the device from a

case, wait for 10 seconds and again insert into a case completely and
without skews. If as a result of gauging on a one of the following digits is
displayed: 0,-0, 1,-1 - that calibration is correct.
In case of occurrence of other digits - it is necessary to make
calibration of the device.
Calibration of the device: get the device from a case, wait for 10
seconds and again insert it into a case completely and without skews, thus
the lightguide head adjoins to the white rectangular and the device utters a
sound signal. If at installation of the device into the case the sound signal is
absent, it is necessary to get the device from the case, put forward slightly
the mobile head from the case of the device, and then insert the device into
the case once more. Wait the second sound signal (approximately in 20-30
sec.), then the display will go out. Calibration is complete.
3) If you were convinced that the device was calibrated correctly and
during gauging on RC its perpendicularity to RC was provided, but the
device shows values not meeting paragraph 11 of the manual, clear surfaces
of RC and of the optical head and check up correctness of factors C1, C2, C3,
C4 installation (paragraph 9.3 of section 9 Probable malfunctions and ways
of their elimination). Then repeat gauging. If after that the values measured
on RC again do not correspond to paragraph 11 of the manual it is necessary
to address to the manufacturer.
Gauging of TBI
7.3. The general references:
It is necessary to make three repeated measurements successively for
rising an accuracy of TBI definition, each time shifting the device on a few
millimeters along a forehead of the child. In case of difference in results
choose average, having rejected the least and the greatest ones.
At carrying out the gauging it is necessary to mean that results will
be doubtful if there are hypodermic haematomas or vascular stain in the area
of gauging (for example, after carrying out infusional therapies). In this case
it is more preferable to carry out gauging TBI on the top part of a breast
bone.
In more detail about a choice of a site of a dermal surface for
gauging TBI it is written in Methodical recommendations "Diagnostics and
the control of newborns hiperbilirubinemia using non invasive
transcutaneous photometric analyzer " Bilitest " type PHA-02.
7.4. It is necessary to disinfect the device before definition TBI at
each patient: holding the device with the head downwards, not pressing on
the lightguide head wipe its end face with soft fabric (a gauze, lawn) or a
cotton tampon moistened in alcohol-rectificate. It is necessary to dry an end
23.03.200420.6.2008 11:57:00 AM
face after processing and to wipe with a soft dry fabric (a gauze, lawn). Do
not allow course of alcohol inside the device.
7.5. For gauging TBI at newborn it is necessary to approach closely
an end face of the mobile head of the device perpendicularly to the chosen
site of a dermal surface and to press the device, smoothly enlarging effort,
till a sound signal. Hold the device on till the ending of a sound signal with
duration of about 1-3 seconds, and then take off effort of pressing.
Occurrence at a display a symbol - - - instead of digital value means that
the mobile head was taken off before the ending of a sound signal and then
the gauging should be repeated. The end of a sound signal indicates the
ending of gauging and occurrence of result on a digital display.
At first the symbol -- is displayed and then digital value of TBI
which remains on a display for 20-30 sec. It is recommended to carry out
gauging for 3 times, each time shifting the device on a few millimeters. In
case of difference of results choose average, having rejected the least and
the greatest one.
7.6. Upon the end of gauging it is necessary to make disinfection of
the device, and then to insert it into the case completely and without skews.
The device with fixed batteries does not demand turning on and off.
The NOTE: If at installation in the case the device shows the
numbers distinct from: 0,-0, 1,-1 on white color standard take out the device
from a case not waiting its re-calibration and insert into a case again. If as a
result of gauging you see on a display again not: 0,-0, 1,-1, leave the device
in a case for 3 minutes for its calibration. In this case it is necessary to cast
doubt on the received results and to repeat gauging TBI.
23.03.200420.6.2008 11:57:00 AM
7.7. The brief order of operations at gauging of transcutaneus

bilirubin index (TBI) on the device is resulted in tab. 3.
Table 3.
Operation
1. Take the device out of the case. The device with fixed batteries does not
demand turning on and is ready to work in 10 seconds after withdrawing
from a case.
2. Wipe an end face of the lightguide head with soft clean fabric (a gauze,
lawn) or a cotton plug moistened in alcohol-rectificate. Then it is necessary
to wipe it with a soft clean fabric (a gauze, lawn) and to dry the end face
after processing. Processing (wiping) should be carried out before gauging
TBI at each patient. Gauging TBI can be carried out only after alcohol
completely will dry up.
3. Measure TBI at newborn. For this purpose approach closely the end face
of the mobile head of the device perpendicularly to the chosen site of a
dermal surface and press the device, smoothly enlarging effort before a
sound signal. Hold on and do not move the device before the ending of a
sound signal (1-3 ) after which remove the device from a skin. The result of
gauging TBI is displayed on a digital display. Occurrence on a display of a
symbol - - - instead of digital value means that the mobile head was not
adjoined before the ending of a sound signal and in this case gauging should
be repeated. The result of gauging is held on a display for about 30 second,
then the device switches to standby mode. Repeated gauging can be
carried out every other second on the nearest next sites of a skin. Carry out 3
measurements and choose average result.
4. Measure the TBI at the next patient according to paragraph 2 and 3 of the
algorithm.
5. After the measurement is completed process the head and put the device
into the case. The device does not require turning off.

9.2. Replacement of batteries

Replacement of batteries should be made when the symbol "UUU"
is displayed during the gauging.
The battery compartment is on the back panel of the device under a
cover. Remove a cover and take out elements of a feed, insert new such as
or LR03, keeping polarity specified at the bottom of a battery
compartment.
After inserting new batteries into the device first will be displayed
the alphanumeric code, meaning the version of the program setup in the
device, and then - -. In 1 second the display fades.
Calibrate the device on item 7.2 of a manual.
ATTENTION! You should be sure that your batteries are of high
quality. The power on three consistently paired batteries should be not less
4V at a current 20 . Therefore the use of re-charging accumulators is not
supposed. It is not recommended to use various batteries or old ones
together with new.
9.3. Installation (check) of numerical factors
The buttons L and R under a cover of battery compartment serve for
installation (check) of numerical factors.
Numerical coefficients are set on the manufacture and written in
Section 11.
ATTENTION! The procedure of installation (check) of factors
always should be finished with installation of factor C4 (even if it is not
required to change it). It is related to that the device "remembers" a mode of
display corresponding to last entered factor. Thus at the subsequent
measurements the corresponding symbol - _ - either -U- or -E- and
the corresponding service data will be displayed.
To install or check the factors it is necessary to get the device from a
case and take off a cover of a battery compartment, slightly pressing
corrugated marks of an arrow in a direction specified by an arrow, and
shifting a cover from the case. Then carry out operations on the sequence
described in Tab. 5.
