Description
Designed by a pediatrician, BiliCalc uses the American Academy of Pediatrics 2004 "Management of Hyperbilirubinemia in Infants Greater than 35 Weeks of Age" to calculate the threshold for starting phototherapy based on the patient's age, bilirubin level, and neurotoxicity rk is. In addition, it will also tell you the patient's risk zone using the Bhutani Nomogram.This program allows you to input the infant's age at time of lab or manually input both the birth date and hour as well as lab date and hour. The app has a direct link to source journal articles, nomograms, and a list of the neurotoxicity risk factors. Supports US and SI units (mg/dL and µmol/L).
Intended for use by pediatricians, neonatologists, physicians, medical students, and pediatric nurses who treat newborn infants in the hospital and as outpatients.
BiliCalc has no advertisements!!!

Excellent tool I'm a pediatrics resident and use this often for over a year. Originally I used on iPhone, and now Android. It gets the job done, and links are right there from sources I trust. Thank you.

Color Confusion The legend below graph says green line is low risk but on the graph green line is on top indicating high risk. I'm confused.

Very useful! Very handy, shows many graphs, very accurate. Doesn't need internet connection to give results. Definitly worth the money.

Bilicalc is the best This product is worth 1 dollar. I paid 5 dollars for another bilirubin software and it was not as good as this one. Thank you.

I like that it calculates the age. I have used another app that uses a scroll for the time and was a little quicker plotting the times. Great app

Extremely easy to use. All the info of bilitool or similar programs in a more accessible format. Highly recommended.
