Picterus Picterus develops and distributes a smartphone app that can diagnose jaundice in newborns.

PICTERUS® JAUNDICE PRO
A jaundice screening device approved for clinical use by healthcare professionals and caregivers. 🌐 www.picterus.com 📩 contact@picterus.com Worldwide, 114,000 children die unnecessarily from jaundice every year. In addition, jaundice complicates and creates extra stress for parents as they have to go back and forth to the hospital just to keep their child's jaundice levels under control. Our app will help solve both of these problems, as we are developing the world's first low-cost diagnostic tool for jaundice that works on all skin types.

Tormod Thomsen had the opportunity to visit the SISHU booth at this year’s World Health Innovation Forum in India, where their important newborn screening work is being highlighted.

Picterus and Picterus Newborn Health are proud to be one of the official partners of Project SISHU, a collaborative effort through the UCLA Global Health program focused on expanding newborn screening in underserved communities across India. SISHU aims to make comprehensive screening for conditions like neonatal jaundice widely accessible by combining training, clinical decision support tools, and affordable smartphone-based devices.

The World Health Innovation Forum brings together leaders and innovators who are driving practical solutions to improve healthcare access and impact. It’s inspiring to see SISHU’s vision showcased on this global stage.

As part of the project, Picterus contributes to the newborn jaundice screening component through Picterus Jaundice Pro, helping make affordable, accessible screening possible using smartphone-based technology.

SISHU is represented at the forum by Dr. Supriya Bavisetty and Dr. Kumar Gavali Suryanarayana, who are sharing the project’s progress and potential for large-scale impact.

Phoenix Medical Systems, our distributor in India, is also exhibiting at the conference and supporting efforts to strengthen newborn care across the country.

Together, we are working toward a future where high-quality newborn jaundice screening is available to all families, no matter where they live.

We’re honored to be represented at the Tiny Feet, Big Steps Neonatology Conference 2025 in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, where Dr. Beatrice Odongkara is attending on our behalf. She is a dedicated NICU physician and the lead investigator of a clinical trial using Picterus Jaundice Pro at Gulu Regional Referral Hospital (GRRH) in Uganda.

Picterus is helping transform how neonatal jaundice is screened, and its potential impact across Africa is inspiring. 🤩

Our commitment remains the same. We want to make safe, accessible jaundice screening available to healthcare providers everywhere. 🌍

Update

We’re happy to share that the planned pilot neonatal screening project in Kapiri Mposhi, Zambia, is well under way!

A total of 50+ newborns have been successfully screened in the past 3 weeks and 5 have been identified for phototherapy.
Kapiri like many other rural hospitals does not have access to bilirubinometers or consistently working labs, making it incredibly challenging to detect jaundice and select which babies need follow up treatment.

Thanks to the generosity of our donors and the dedication of the brilliant Dr. Leah Seaman and her incredible team at Kapiri District Hospital, newborns are now being routinely screened for jaundice using the Picterus solution, and healthcare workers at the hospital are receiving accurate and immediate bilirubin results to make sure those babies who present with jaundice receive the care they need to thrive.

This milestone is just the beginning.
In the next phases, we are in the planning stages for hundreds more newborns to be screened at Kapiri Urban Clinic and the Kapiri District Health Office, expanding access to early jaundice screening and follow-up care for families across the district.

Each screening brings us closer to a future where no newborn suffers the consequences of undetected jaundice and where every child has the chance to thrive. We look forward to sharing more updates as the project grows and to continuing our mission of ensuring a healthy start for every child, anywhere and anytime.

Jaundice is one of the most common conditions in newborns but managing it doesn’t have to be overwhelming for families.
