Published

on

Innovative digital application predicts bilirubin, the biomarker for neonatal jaundice, helping to enhance early intervention and care

TELFORD, Penn., March 24, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Dräger is expanding its neonatal care portfolio with the introduction of BiliPredics, a predictive software solution from NeoPredics designed to forecast dynamic progression of bilirubin. By leveraging a clinically validated algorithm, BiliPredics can enable healthcare professionals to anticipate bilirubin progression up to 60 hours in advance, helping to support timely and informed clinical decisions.

“Our collaboration with Dräger is a significant milestone in advancing neonatal care.”

Key Benefits of BiliPredics:

Enhanced Discharge Planning: Supports clinicians to help reduce unnecessary treatments, tests, and extended hospital stays through predictive insights into bilirubin progression.

Data-Driven Decision Making: Utilizes an extensive database of over 50,000 individual bilirubin measurements of close to 10,000 newborns with a total of about 100,000 individual patient characteristics. Integrated Jaundice Management: Helps provide a streamlined pathway for screening, monitoring, and treating neonatal jaundice.

Advanced predictive capabilities

Neonatal jaundice affects approximately 50% of all newborns and up to 80% of premature babies.1 BiliPredics offers a proactive approach to jaundice management by forecasting bilirubin progression over 30, 48, or 60 hours. The web-based application presents this data in an accessible dashboard, helping to enable clinicians to implement preventive measures and reduce the risk of complications.

Smooth integration with clinical workflows

BiliPredics requires only a few clinical parameters to generate comprehensive insights. It aligns with established guidelines, including the 2022 AAP Hyperbilirubinemia Guideline, and can integrate with electronic medical records (EMR) to display patient data within the dashboard. The system presents bilirubin trends through comprehensible curves, helping to allow for real-time assessment and intervention.

Strategic partnership to advance neonatal care

“Through our partnership with NeoPredics, we are expanding our offering with an innovative digital solution that strengthens our position as a leader in jaundice management,” said Harald Kneuer, director of neonatal care at Dräger. “By combining Dräger’s market expertise with NeoPredics’ advanced predictive analytics, we are providing healthcare professionals with powerful tools to improve patient outcomes while managing costs.”

NeoPredics CEO, Thorsten Waloschek, echoed this sentiment: “Our collaboration with Dräger is a significant milestone in advancing neonatal care. Together, we are bridging innovative technology and clinical expertise to address critical challenges in jaundice management worldwide.”

Comprehensive jaundice management solutions

Dräger’s neonatal care portfolio includes solutions for both screening and treatment of neonatal jaundice. The Dräger Jaundice Meter JM-105 offers non-invasive, rapid bilirubin measurement, while the BiliLuxTM Phototherapy Light provides effective LED-based phototherapy for jaundice treatment. This approach helps ensure adherence to the latest guidelines, reinforcing the concept of “phototherapy as a drug” with precise irradiance dosing.
