Intended Use
The Infant Heel Warmer by Intco is a single use, non-toxic, non-sterile, disposable device. It is an instant warm pack intended to be used on an infant's heel to aid in the drawing of blood for analysis. The device is to be limited to use in hospitals, doctors' offices, and other healthcare facilities that administer health care services to newborns and infants. Prescription Use Only.
Device Story
Single-use, disposable, non-sterile instant warm pack. Comprised of flexible poly/nylon outer pouch containing inner perforated polyethylene/polyester pouch with food-grade sodium acetate solution and crystals. Activation occurs by manual compression of inner pouch, triggering exothermic crystallization of sodium acetate. Reaches peak temperature of approximately 102-105°F. Adhesive tape strip secures device to infant's heel. Used in hospitals and healthcare facilities by clinicians to aid blood drawing. Provides localized heat to improve blood flow for analysis.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Performance data compared peak temperature characteristics against predicate devices, demonstrating similar temperature ranges and cooling profiles. Materials tested for sensitization, thickness (ASTM D1203), and tensile strength (ASTM D882).
Technological Characteristics
Materials: Poly/nylon outer pouch, polyethylene/polyester inner pouch. Chemical: Food-grade sodium acetate and water. Principle: Exothermic crystallization. Standards: ASTM D1203 (thickness), ASTM D882 (tensile strength), ISO 7176, EN 1021. Form factor: Flexible pouch with adhesive strip. Non-sterile.
Indications for Use
Indicated for newborns and infants to provide localized heat to the heel to facilitate blood collection.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A hot or cold disposable pack is a device intended for medical purposes that consists of a sealed plastic bag incorporating chemicals that, upon activation, provides hot or cold therapy for body surfaces.

# 510(K)SUMMARY
This summary of 510(k) safety and effectiveness information is being submitted in accordance with requirements of SMDA 1990 and 21 CFR §807.92.
The assigned 510(k) number is: K053254
1. Submitter's Identification: Mr. Fangyi Liu Shanghai Intco Medical Supply Co., Ltd. 1299 Hubin Road Fengxian, Shanghai, 201417 P.R. China Date Summary Prepared: Nov. 18, 2005
2. Name of the Device: Shanghai Intco Medical Supply Co., Ltd.
Infant Heel Warmer by Intco
3. Predicate Device Information and Substantial Equivalence:
The Infant Heel Warmer by Intco is substantially equivalent in safety and effectiveness to the Rapid Aid Ltd., the Rapid Aid Infant Heel Warmer.
#### 4. Intended Use:
The Infant Heel Warmer by Intco is a single use, non-toxic, non-sterile, disposable device. It is an instant warm pack intended to be used on an infant's heel to aid in the drawing of blood for analysis. The device is to be limited to use in hospitals, doctors' offices, and other healthcare facilities that administer health care services to newborns and infants. Prescription Use Only. The Indication for use of the Infant Heel Warmer by Intco is the same to the Rapid Aid Infant Heel Warmer, a legally marketed predicate device.
#### 5. Device Description:
- Classified by FDA's Physical Medicine Device Panel as Class I, 21 CFR ત્વ. 890.5710, Pack, Hot or Cold disposable, MPO, and meets all requirements of ISO 7176 and EN 1021.
- The Infant Heel Warmer by Intco is a self contained unit comprised of a b. flexible, poly/nylon outer pouch containing: I) A flexible, perforated, polyethylene/polyester inner pouch that holds the liquid solution.
{1}------------------------------------------------
II) Liquid solution of food grade sodium acetate and water contained in I).
III) Minute crystals of sodium acetate.
An adhesive tape is attached to the top of the unit. The unit is activated by squeezing firmly on the inner fluid pouch, this will cause the inner perforated pouch to activate. Rapid crystallization occurs when the liquid contents are exposed to the minute crystals of sodium acetate contained within the poly/nylon outer pouch. This exothermic reaction causes the unit to heat up to 102 degree F. The adhesive tape strip is used to hold the warmer in place on the infant's heel.
## 6. Testing Report:
- a. Summary of Testing:
- All materials used in the composition of the formulation are subject to . testing at the supplier site and are accepted based on results from a Certificate of Analysis.
- The outer poly/nylon pouch material has been tested following ASTM . standard and is latex free and non-sensitizing.
- The finished packing material is tested for: thickness following ASTM ● D1203, tensile strength following ASTM D-882 and seal width.
- Pouch packing material is subject to incoming inspection for ● width/length, seal integrity and burst strength.
- The chemical mixture claims are based on the results of testing the ● sodium acetate which is a non-toxic, food grade chemical and has been found to be toxicologically acceptable for it's intended use.
- Finished product is subject to testing for testing for peak temperature, . seal integrity and pressure testing. Summary of peak temperature from batch production results is attached.
#### b. Performance Data:
The Infant Heel Warmer by Intco was tested against predicate devices for temperature characteristics. They performed very similarly with temperature within the same range, reaching a maximum temperature around 105 F within the first minutes and then steadily decreasing in temperature.
## c. Conclusions drawn from testing:
The data from testing demonstrates that the performance of the Infant Heel Warmer by Intco is very similar to and substantially equivalent to that of other commercially available Infant Heel Warmers.
