Intended Use
The Neonatal Phototherapy System, Model: KANGALITE is intended for the treatment of unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia in the population of neonates: gestational age ≥38 weeks and weight within 2500-4500 grams. It can be used in the clinical setting or in the home environment. It should be used for neonates whom phototherapy has been prescribed.
Device Story
Wearable phototherapy system for neonatal hyperbilirubinemia; treats neonates in clinical or home settings. System comprises light source, fiber optic panels, swaddle, strap, and disposable covers. Light source emits narrow-band blue LED light (400-500 nm, peak 455±10 nm) transmitted via fiber optic bundle to panels. Bilirubin absorbs blue light, converting to water-soluble waste products for excretion. Device allows kangaroo care; no eye protection required. Healthcare provider prescribes therapy; device operated by clinicians or parents. Output is fixed-intensity blue light; irradiance >30 µW/cm²/nm. Benefits include effective bilirubin reduction and potential for home-based treatment.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Substantial equivalence supported by bench testing, including biocompatibility (ISO 10993-5, -10), electrical safety (IEC 60601-1), EMC (IEC 60601-1-2), and phototherapy performance (IEC 60601-2-50).
Indicated for treatment of unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia in neonates with gestational age ≥38 weeks and weight 2500-4500 grams. Contraindicated in cases of congenital porphyria, family history of porphyria, or concomitant use of photosensitizing drugs/agents.
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.

#### 5. Device Description:
The Neonatal Phototherapy System, Model: KANGALITE is a wearable phototherapy system that consists of six components: Light Source with AC Power Cord, Dual Fiber Optic Panels (Standard accessory) /Single Fiber Optic Panel (optional accessory), Swaddle, Strap, Disposable Covers and Table Mounting Clip (optional accessory). The Neonatal Phototherapy System, Model: KANGALITE delivers a narrow band of high-intensity blue light emitting diode (LED), in order to provide phototherapy treatment for neonatal hyperbilirubinemia.
The Neonatal Phototherapy System, Model: KANGALITE Light Source contains a blue LED which emits light in the range 400-500 nm (peak wavelength 455±10 nm). The system gives only one blue light irradiance output level which is not adjustable. This blue light is directed through the optical fiber bundle to the illuminating area of the Fiber Optic Panel where the newborn receives blue light therapy.
The Fiber Optic Panel is inserted into the Disposable Cover and is placed in a soft and comfortable Swaddle, while the baby is wrapped inside to receive phototherapy. Baby is allowed to receive kangaroo care. Besides, compare to conventional phototherapy, no eye protection for the baby is required as blue light will not leak out when properly set up.
The light output (>30 µW/cm²/nm) is sufficient to provide intensive phototherapy which is defined

as in the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) standard.
Average irradiance for:
Dual Fiber Optic Panels: 50 µW/cm2/nm (±25%);
Single Fiber Optic Panel: 60 uW/cm2/nm (±25%).
The spectrum range of the blue LED light matches with the spectral absorption of bilirubin. Under blue light irradiation, subcutaneous bilirubin absorbs strongly in the blue region of the light spectrum and converts into less lipophilic waste products which can be excreted through the bile or urine without the need for conjugation.
The Neonatal Phototherapy System, Model: KANGALITE can be directly connected to nominal voltages readily available throughout the world as the Light Source is affixed with a wide-range medical adaptor, rated from 100-240 VAC and 50/60 Hz. It converts the power to 15 VDC to power up the Light Source.
Environment:
Operating temperature/humidity: 59 to 95 °F (15 to 35 °C)/15 to 95 % RH, non-condensing Storage temperature/humidity: -4 to 122 °F (-20 to 50 °C) /15 to 95 %RH, non-condensing Atmospheric pressure: 700-1060 hPa
