New study to check if jaundice device misses Darker-Skinned babies
NCT ID NCT07315126
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study will check if a standard jaundice test (a light meter on the skin) works equally well for newborns of all skin colors. About 510 babies will have their skin color classified and their jaundice levels measured both with the meter and a blood test. The goal is to see if the meter is less accurate for babies with darker skin, which could lead to missed cases of dangerous jaundice.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to more accurate jaundice screening for newborns with darker skin, reducing missed cases.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It only measures accuracy, so it won't directly improve health outcomes.
