CHEMILUMINESCENT PHOTOTHERAPY DEVICE

摘要

A portable, disposable, and self-contained medical device for the production and delivery of therapeutic light to the blood transmitted through the non-ocular skin surface. The light is generated by a chemiluminescent dye configured to radiate light in the specific wavelength required by a particular phototherapy treatment. The wavelength of light emitted by this planar device is such that some disorders of health requiring phototherapy are effectively treated. Disorders falling into this category include elevated bilirubin jaundice, circadian rhythm anomalies, mood disorders and potentially a reduction in injury or surgically related bruise healing time.
