02.03.2016

Phototherapy lamps are a needed piece of equipment to treat jaundice in children. Jaundice is a problem that is encountered on daily basis and approximately 75% of our children manifest jaundice upon birth. If not treated it can cause damage to the brain and leave long-term consequences for the child.

In 2016 we have delivered 5 phototherapy lamps, made possible through Cycle Kosovo for Children and Let’s Dance for Mothers and Children events. Delivery of phototherapy lamps is on annual plan and strategy of our foundation.

FACT: Phototherapy lamps are used approximately by 30-35 babies every day.
