Neonatal hyperbilirubinemia, manifesting as neonatal jaundice (NNJ), is an important cause of newborn morbidity and mortality. It is important to identify infants with neonatal hyperbilirubinemia at an early stage, but currently there is a lack of tools that are both accurate and affordable.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Objective<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This study aimed to develop a novel system to assess the presence of NNJ. The device should provide accurate results, be approved as a medical device, be easy to use, and be produced at a price that is affordable even in low-resource settings.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We used an iterative approach to develop a smartphone-based system to detect the presence of NNJ. We performed technical development, followed by clinical and usability testing in parallel, after which we initiated the regulatory processes for certification. We updated the system in each iteration, and the final version underwent a clinical validation study on healthy term newborns aged 1 to 15 days before all documentation was submitted for conformity assessment to obtain Conformit\u00e9 Europ\u00e9enne (CE) certification. We developed a system that incorporates a smartphone app, a color calibration card, and a server.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Three iterations of the smartphone-based system were developed; the final version was approved as a medical device after complying with Medical Device Regulation guidelines. A total of 201 infants were included in the validation study. Bilirubin values using the system highly correlated with total serum or plasma bilirubin levels (r=0.84). The system had a high sensitivity (94%) to detect severe jaundice, defined as total serum or plasma bilirubin &gt;250 \u00b5mol\/L, and maintained a high specificity (71%).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Our smartphone-based system has a high potential as a tool for identifying NNJ. An iterative approach to product development, conducted by working on different tasks in parallel, resulted in a functional and successful product. By adhering to the requirements for regulatory approval from the beginning of the project, we were able to develop a market-ready mobile health solution.<\/jats:p>\n
