Research and Design of Neonatal Jaundice Detector Based on Color Sensor

Objective: To solve the problem of invasive detection of neonatal jaundice and prone to infection. Methods: A neonatal jaundice detector based on color sensing was proposed. The microprocessor controls the color sensor to read the RGB color components of the skin reflection, and performs a multiple linear regression model fitting with the serum total bilirubin to calculate the corresponding neonatal jaundice index. Results: The paired T test with JM-103 shows that the measurement results have good correlation. The Bland-Altman method was used in neonatal measurement to analyze and verify its consistency. Conclusion: The clinical comparison and verification show that the monitor can measure neonatal jaundice index, and the design has good applicability.
