Intended Use
The Globe-Trotter GT5400 (GT5400) is a neonatal transport system intended for the transport of newborns weighing up to 10 kg (22 lb.) between health care facilities. It provides a means to control air temperature, deliver oxygen, resuscitate, provide passive humidification and ventilate with active humidification. The GT5400 can be used for intra-hospital transport as well as between facilities via air or ground. The device is intended to be used by trained health care professionals. It is not intended for home use.
Device Story
The Globe-Trotter GT5400 is a neonatal transport system comprising a transport incubator, modular frame, and life support console. It facilitates intra-hospital and inter-facility transport (air/ground) for newborns up to 10 kg. The system controls air temperature, delivers oxygen, provides passive/active humidification, and supports ventilation. It is operated by trained healthcare professionals. The device integrates various components, including a modified TI500 incubator, blender, mechanical ventilator (MVP10 or CV2i), O2 monitor, and optional infusion pumps, capnographs, and vital signs monitors. It features digital pressure gauges, LED examination lights, and an accessory deck for mounting additional equipment. The system provides a controlled environment for neonates during transit, allowing clinicians to monitor and provide life support, thereby maintaining patient stability during movement between facilities.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data provided. Substantial equivalence is supported by bench testing, performance verification, and validation activities. Testing included functional/operational testing, biocompatibility assessment, and risk analysis. The device was tested against international standards including IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, IEC 62366, ISO 14971, EN 1789, EN 13718-1, EN 13976, and RTCA DO-160 for environmental conditions.
Technological Characteristics
The system consists of a transport incubator, modular frame, and life support console. Materials are biocompatible and previously used in neonatal devices. It operates on AC power (110/120V or 230V) and includes battery backup. Features include digital pressure gauges, LED exam lights, and accessory rails. It is designed for transport environments (air/ground) and complies with IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, and RTCA DO-160 standards.
Indications for Use
Indicated for the transport of newborns weighing up to 10 kg (22 lb.) between healthcare facilities. Intended for use by trained healthcare professionals; not for home use.
Regulatory Classification
Identification

Dear Ms. Winarsky:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food. Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
