Minimum distance from rods of phototherapy light to incubator top or baby cot top be 10 cm above its lid
The minimum distance from phototherapy light to the bed where baby is lying it should be at least 35 cm
Phototherapy light typically covers an area of 46 CM by 23 CM
This distance from phototherapy light rods and the bed of the baby protects baby from adverse effects of therapy such as excessive heat and and so excessive dehydration and damage to eyes and genitalia
Eyes and genitalia must be covered otherwise severe effects could result
