Picterus AS

At Picterus, we are dedicated to transforming newborn care with cutting-edge medical technology designed to screen for jaundice, a common condition affecting many newborns. Jaundice requires timely detection to ensure effective treatment and prevent potential complications, such as brain damage.

The Picterus® Jaundice Pro app is a medical device that works with the Picterus® Calibration Card. The app uses our patented technology to analyze the color of images taken with a smartphone camera to estimate bilirubin levels. The Calibration Card adjusts for lighting conditions and optimizes smartphone camera performance. Results are provided within seconds, making it fast and accurate.

Picterus Jaundice Pro is optimized for both hospital and home use. It allows caregivers to perform multiple screenings of their newborn and contact healthcare providers for further consultation. This is particularly important as bilirubin levels often peak 3-5 days after birth, potentially outside the immediate postnatal care period.

Picterus Jaundice Pro provides reliable screening results and is non-invasive. What sets Picterus Jaundice Pro apart is its cost-effectiveness. Offering a more affordable alternative to traditional jaundice screening methods, it doesn't compromise on accuracy. The app has been tested on over 5,000 newborns worldwide and provides reliable results across various skin tones. Additionally, the device is flexible and user-friendly, allowing it to be used in non-hospital settings as well, offering convenience for on-the-go screening. Furthermore, the results from Picterus Jaundice Pro can be shared through our platform, allowing caregivers to conduct screenings at home while enabling doctors to remotely monitor newborns' bilirubin levels, ensuring timely and effective care.

The app is available for free on both Android and iOS, and it works with a wide range of smartphones.
