BiliStop

BiliStop is the most evidence-based, up-to-date medical decision aid for providers on the best timing to STOP phototherapy in babies with jaundice. After a quick check list, and typing in a few values readily available to any provider taking care of newborns, BiliStop gives you an instant estimate of the risk of re-admission if you are to stop phototherapy now.

BiliStop uses the algorithm derived from a large 2017 study “A Clinical Prediction Rule for Rebound Hyperbilirubinemia Following Inpatient Phototherapy”, published in Pediatrics by Chang, et al. The app itself was then studied in in a Mayo Clinic IRB approved clinical research, tested among providers who care for newborns, proving that BiliStop helps providers achieve more accurate answers than not using BiliStop, with a high end-user satisfaction.

Without collecting or storing any personal information, BiliStop not only can help you make better decisions on when to stop phototherapy, but also can save a lot of precious time for you. In just a few seconds, BiliStop can help you make life-saving decisions, no matter how experienced/inexperienced of a provider you are!
