Medical Disclaimer

In plain language

Morfeo is an educational and tracking tool, written and reviewed by a credentialed pediatric nurse. It is not a medical device. It does not diagnose, treat, monitor, prevent, or cure any condition. It does not replace your pediatrician. If your baby is showing signs of a medical emergency, contact emergency services or your pediatrician immediately. Do not rely on Morfeo for urgent decisions.

The full disclaimer below explains what that means in detail.


1. What Morfeo is — and what it is not

Morfeo helps you log your baby's sleep, feedings, diapers, and notes; visualize patterns over time; read curated educational content authored with Dr. Roxana De Las Salas, PhD, MSc, RN, BSN; and (for Plus subscribers) receive an AI-generated weekly summary of patterns in the data you've logged.

Morfeo is not:

  • A medical device, as defined by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the European Medical Device Regulation (MDR 2017/745), Colombia's INVIMA framework, or equivalent regulators elsewhere.
  • A diagnostic tool. Morfeo does not detect, diagnose, or treat any condition — including but not limited to sleep disorders, feeding difficulties, growth concerns, infectious disease, or developmental delay.
  • A replacement for your pediatrician, your obstetrician, your lactation consultant, or any other licensed healthcare professional.
  • A clinical-decision-support system or a prescription tool.

The content inside the app — including age-norm articles, regression and milestone descriptions, and weekly insights — is provided for general informational and educational purposes only.

2. The role of Dr. Roxana De Las Salas's content

The pediatric content in Morfeo's knowledge base is authored or reviewed by Dr. Roxana De Las Salas, a registered nurse with a master's and doctorate in pharmacological and pharmaceutical sciences and a faculty appointment at Universidad del Norte in Barranquilla, Colombia.

That content is descriptive, not prescriptive. It describes patterns commonly seen in healthy infants at given ages and what pediatric sleep research has documented about them. It does not tell you what to do for your specific baby. Two babies of the same age can be developmentally normal and behave very differently.

If anything in the knowledge base appears to conflict with guidance you have received from your own pediatrician, defer to your pediatrician.

3. The AI weekly insight (Plus only)

For Plus subscribers, Morfeo generates a weekly observation using a large language model (currently Claude Haiku, provided by Anthropic). The model is given an anonymized summary of the last 14 days of activity and instructed, by system prompt and policy:

  • To produce descriptive observations only, never medical recommendations.
  • To never use phrases such as "you should," "your baby has," "your baby needs," or any wording that would constitute medical advice.
  • To defer to your pediatrician for anything ambiguous, concerning, or outside the descriptive scope.
  • To never claim a baby is "on track," "behind," "overweight," "underweight," "small," or "big" — Morfeo ships no growth chart or percentile data, so percentile and age-norm comparisons are explicitly forbidden in AI output.

AI output can still be incomplete, imprecise, or wrong. You are responsible for any decisions you make. Treat the weekly insight as a thoughtful summary, not as advice from a clinician.

4. When to consult a healthcare professional

Please consult your pediatrician or an appropriately licensed clinician for any specific question about your baby's health, sleep, feeding, growth, or development. In particular, do not rely on Morfeo and seek professional care immediately if any of the following occur:

  • Your baby is under three months old and has a fever, refuses to feed, is unusually drowsy, or seems unwell.
  • Your baby has difficulty breathing, blue or gray lips, persistent grunting, or chest retractions.
  • Your baby has signs of dehydration — fewer than three to four wet diapers in 24 hours in an infant, sunken fontanelle, very dry mouth, or marked lethargy.
  • Your baby has a seizure, sudden weakness or limpness, or is difficult to rouse.
  • Your baby has unexplained or persistent crying that you cannot soothe and that is not consistent with their usual pattern.
  • Your baby has signs of failure to thrive — declining weight, very slow weight gain over multiple weeks, or other concerning trajectory.
  • Your baby has any symptom that alarms you, even if it is not on this list.

If you suspect a medical emergency, call your local emergency number (911 in the United States, 112 in much of Europe, 123 in Colombia) or go to the nearest emergency department.

5. No clinical relationship

Using Morfeo does not create a doctor-patient, nurse-patient, or other clinician-patient relationship between you and Dr. Roxana De Las Salas, between you and any other contributor to the app, or between you and Morfeo's operator. Communications you send to hello@getmorfeo.com are not protected as clinical communications and should not be used to seek medical advice.

6. Regional notes
