This search specifies the requirements of clothing which are designed for new born children to offer comfortable and protection against bacteria growth and treatment of jaundice by phototherapy.
Due to the nature of phototherapy whenever areas increased it prone to light whenever the response are faster treatment. Nurseries for the treatment of jaundice require that the child be without clothes and the presence of a nurse to prone another area of the child to light every period and the child is far from his mother, breastfeeding is a main factor in the treatment of jaundice.
For the body of new born children to remain comfortable, we will use cotton. the growth of microbes on textiles during use and storage negatively affects the wearer especially children. the detrimental effects can be controlled by durable antimicrobial finshing of the textile by treated.
Though this study which is divided into three parts, first part, was found that Bafta 100% cotton fabric plain weave,140gm/m2and Canvas (Etamean) 100% cotton fabric warps rib4/4,120 gm/m2 are particularly comfortable to wear for children . Bafta and canvas were treated against bacteria with natural materials and herbs.
Second part; took place on the best result from first part then attach optical fibers in bafta and Canvas (Etamean) fabric by different ways we found that the second method (optical fiber weaving in the threads of canvas fabric) is better to safety of optical fiber and easier in implement.We will use LED (Light- Emitting Diodes), Taking into account wavelength and spectral distribution.
