Intended Use
Infant radiant warmers provide infrared heat in a controlled manner to neonates who are unable to thermoregulate based on their own physiology. Infant radiant warmers may be used to facilitate the neonate's transition to the external environment or to provide a controlled open environment. An optional integrated SpO2 monitoring feature may be used for continuous noninvasive monitoring of functional oxygen saturation of arterial hemoglobin (Sp02) and pulse rate (measured by a SpO2 sensor). An optional integrated resuscitation system may be used to provide the basic equipment required for pulmonary resuscitation of infants. Pulmonary resuscitation includes practices necessary to establish a clear airway and provide oxygen or air/oxygen mixtures and/or manual ventilation to the infant.
Device Story
Infant radiant warmer provides infrared heat to neonates; maintains thermal balance via direct radiation. Operates in Manual Mode (fixed heater power percentage) or Baby Mode (closed-loop control based on skin temperature probe). Optional integrated SpO2 monitoring and resuscitation system (airway management, oxygen delivery, manual ventilation). Used in clinical settings by healthcare providers. Modifications include strengthened bedside panels and metal latches to withstand mechanical forces from misuse. Output allows clinicians to monitor infant status and provide life-support interventions; benefits include stable thermal environment and immediate access to resuscitation equipment.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Substantial equivalence supported by non-clinical bench testing, including mechanical verification (static load, fatigue, impact tests) and summative usability testing for the modified bedside panel.
Technological Characteristics
Infant radiant warmer; infrared heating source. Control modes: Manual (power percentage) and Baby (skin probe feedback). Modifications: metal bedside panel latches. Standards: AAMI/ANSI ES60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, IEC 60601-2-21. Quality system: 21 CFR 820, ISO 13485.
Indications for Use
Indicated for neonates unable to thermoregulate; used to facilitate transition to external environment or provide controlled open environment. Optional features for SpO2/pulse rate monitoring and pulmonary resuscitation (airway clearance, oxygen/air delivery, manual ventilation).
Regulatory Classification
Identification
The infant radiant warmer is a device consisting of an infrared heating element intended to be placed over an infant to maintain the infant's body temperature by means of radiant heat. The device may also contain a temperature monitoring sensor, a heat output control mechanism, and an alarm system (infant temperature, manual mode if present, and failure alarms) to alert operators of a temperature condition over or under the set temperature, manual mode time limits, and device component failure, respectively. The device may be placed over a pediatric hospital bed or it may be built into the bed as a complete unit.

## 5.1 Device Description:
The Panda iRes Warmer and Giraffe Warmer are infant radiant warmers with a heating source intended to maintain the thermal balance of an infant patient by direct radiation of energy in the infrared region of the electromagnetic spectrum. This device also provides optional integrated SpO2 Monitoring and Resuscitation.
Radiant heat from an infrared heat source is focused onto the bed to warm the patient. The operator may select either the heater power or skin temperature control method. Depending on the control method selected, the heater is either regulated at the operator selected power level or the heater output is modulated to maintain the patient's temperature at the value selected by the operator.
The subject devices have two control modes, Manual Mode and Baby Mode. In the manual Mode, the warmer controls radiant heater output from a heater power percentage setting that you enter using the control panel. In baby mode, the warmer controls radiant heater output based on temperature readings from a probe attached to the baby's skin (skin temperature probe and the reflective probe patch) and a set temperature (set temp) you enter using the control panel.
## 5.2 Comparison of Technological Characteristics with the Predicate Device
The modified Panda iRes Warmer and Giraffe Warmer are infant radiant warmers
{5}------------------------------------------------
developed on the same platform as predicate Panada iRes Warmer and Giraffe Warmer (K122267). The proposed modifications to the Panda iRes Warmer and Giraffe Warmer include changes to strengthen the bedside panels and latches (including changing the material of the bedside panel latch from plastic to metal), to better withstand forces in the event of misuse by maneuvering the warmer by pulling the bedside panel wall. The bedside panel design is modified to accommodate the changed latch. These modifications to the bedside panel are mechanical in nature.

## Human Factors Analysis
The modifications to the Panda iRes Warmer and Giraffe Warmer required summative usability for the bedside panel instructions for use.
## Conclusion:
GE Healthcare considers the modified Panda iRes Warner and Giraffe Warmer to be as safe, as effective, and the performance to be substantially equivalent to the predicate device. Nonclinical tests have been summarized in the verification testing. The testing was completed with passing results per the acceptance criteria defined in the test cases. Based on development under GE Healthcare's quality system, the successful verification and engineering bench testing, GE Healthcare believes that the Panda iRes Warmer and Giraffe Warmer perform in a substantially equivalent manner to the predicate devices (K122267) and hence is safe and effective for its intended use.
