Intended Use
The neoBLUE blanket LED Phototherapy System is intended for the treatment of neonatal hyperbilirubinemia. It can be used in the clinical setting or in the home.
Device Story
Neonatal phototherapy system; treats hyperbilirubinemia. Composed of mobile light box with single large-format LED (460 nm peak wavelength) coupled to fiberoptic blanket. Light directed via custom optic into fiberoptic blanket; blanket generates intensive phototherapy (>30μW/cm²/nm). Used in clinical or home settings. System includes mattress and disposable non-woven polypropylene cover. Benefits patient by providing effective light therapy for bilirubin reduction. No complex software or algorithmic processing described.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Substantial equivalence supported by non-clinical bench testing, including biocompatibility (ISO 10993), electrical safety (IEC 60601-1), EMI/EMC (IEC 60601-1-2), and phototherapy performance (IEC 60601-2-50). Bench tests confirmed effective surface treatment areas of 504 cm2 (large) and 296 cm2 (small) and irradiance >30μW/cm²/nm.
Technological Characteristics
Mobile LED light box (460 nm peak); fiberoptic blanket (high-performance plastic optical fibers in vinyl); polyurethane mattress; non-woven polypropylene disposable cover. External power supply. Connectivity: None. Sterilization: Not specified. Energy source: Electrical. Standards: IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, IEC 60601-2-50, ISO 10993.
Indications for Use
Indicated for the treatment of neonatal hyperbilirubinemia in neonates.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A neonatal phototherapy unit is a device used to treat or prevent hyperbilirubinemia (elevated serum bilirubin level). The device consists of one or more lamps that emit a specific spectral band of light, under which an infant is placed for therapy. This generic type of device may include supports for the patient and equipment and component parts.

| | 4. | Device Description: | A neonatal phototherapy system composed of a mobile light<br>box coupled to a fiberoptic blanket. The re-usable fiberoptic<br>blanket is covered with a mattress and a disposable cover. |
| | 5. | Intended Use: | The neoBLUE blanket LED Phototherapy System is intended<br>for the treatment of neonatal hyperbilirubinemia. It can be<br>used in the clinical setting or in the home. |

A polyurethane<br>mattress is placed on top of the fiberoptic blanket. A<br>disposable cover made of non-woven polypropylene is placed<br>on top of the mattress. The fiberoptic blanket generates<br>sufficient light output to provide intensive phototherapy<br>(>30μW/cm²/nm). This light output is achieved for both the<br>large blanket and the small blanket.<br><br>Accessories sold with the neoBLUE blanket include the<br>mattress, the disposable covers, and a pole mounting clamp. |
| b) | 1. | Non-clinical Testing<br>Performed: | Biocompatibility tests performed per ISO 10993 for patient<br>contacting materials (mattress and disposable cover).<br>Bench tests performed to measure spectral output, light<br>irradiance and effective surface treatment area.<br>Electrical safety tests performed per IEC 60601-1 (2nd edition)<br>and 60601-1-2 (EMI/EMC).<br>Phototherapy safety and performance tests performed per IEC<br>60601-2-50 (1st edition). |
