Indications for Use
The STARband®, STARlight®, and St. Louis Band are designed to treat infants with abnormal head shapes from age 3 to 18 months and is available by prescription only. Since growth is the driving factor in head shape correction, the infants wear the STARband®, STARlight®, or St. Louis Band for approximately 23 hours per day. The most common head deformities are positional plagiocephaly, brachycephaly, and scaphocephaly. The STARband®, STARlight®, and St. Louis Band have also been cleared to treat unresolved head deformities in patients who have undergone surgery to correct craniosynostosis. The same principles of cranial remolding apply to positional deformities and post-operative patients.
Device Story
Cranial orthosis (STARband, STARlight, St. Louis Band) treats infant head deformities; redirects growth to improve symmetry. Practitioner captures head shape via plaster cast or 3D scanner (e.g., SmartSoc); creates positive model via 5-axis routing. Device provides total contact over prominent areas; voids over depressed areas. Worn ~23 hours/day. New software component, Measurement Comparison Utility (MCU), allows practitioners to compare 3D digital models over treatment period to track progress. MCU presents measurements derived from 3D models; used for assessment, not manufacturing. Benefits include non-invasive correction of cranial deformities.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Accuracy and capability studies conducted on the MCU software compared measurements against manual measurements and 3D-CAD software. Previous R&R and accuracy studies for the SmartSoc Data Acquisition System and cranial orthosis fabrication were leveraged.
Technological Characteristics
Custom-molded cranial orthosis. Materials: polyethylene-polypropylene copolymer, Pelite/Aliplast polyethylene foam, Surlyn, or Co-Polyester. Energy: None (passive). Connectivity: MCU software is a standalone program for 3D model measurement/comparison. Sterilization: Not provided sterile.
Indications for Use
Indicated for infants 3-18 months with moderate-to-severe non-synostotic positional plagiocephaly (plagiocephalic, brachycephalic, scaphocephalic) to improve cranial symmetry/shape via mild pressure on prominent regions. Also indicated for adjunctive use in infants 3-18 months with moderate-to-severe cranial deformities post-surgical correction of synostosis.

#### IV. Description of Device/Modification
The STARband® and STARlight® redirects the head growth to improve proportion and symmetry. The practitioner takes a plaster impression or 3-dimensional captured inage of the infant's head to acquire the existing shape. The mold is sealed and filled with plaster or the 3-dimensional image is carved from a rigid polyurethane foam blank to create a positive model of the head shape. The positive model is modified to obtain greater symmetry and space in the areas of flattening. The STARband and STARlight provide total contact over the prominent or bossed areas of the baby's head to discourage growth there. Over the course of treatment, the inside of the band is further modified by the practitioner to provide space for growth to occur in the flat or depressed areas. The shape of the STARband and STARlight directs growth into the areas of least resistance and creates a precise pathway for the head shape to improve in symmetry and proportion.
The STARband and STARlight product families as it was last cleared in K180109 are essentially still the same devices. The STARband® Side Opening design and STARband® Bi-Valve design is made with an outer shell of 5/32" polyethylene-polypropylene copolymer plastic with an inner liner made of 1/2" pelite polyethylene foam or 1/2" Aliplast foam (closed cell polyethylene). The STARlight Side Opening design and the STARlight® Bi-Valve design are made of a plastic shell of 5/32" - 1/4" clear Surlyn or 1/8" - 7/32" Clear Co-Polyester. The STARlight PRO (Post-operative Remolding Orthosis) design is made of 1/4" to 3/8" clear Surlyn. Optional Aliplast (closed cell polyethylene) padding is available for the clear plastic bands and in addition, optional Reston (polyurethane - 3M Medical Product) foam is available for the STARlight PRO design.
The STARband® Side Opening design and the STARlight Side Opening design has a top opening and a side opening. The band is held in place by a Velcro® strap (1½" for STARband Side Opening and 1" for STARlight Side Opening) across the side opening. The STARlight PRO has two side openings, no top opening, and is held in place by a Velcro strap across each side opening. The STARlight Bi-Valve design and the STARband Bi-Valve design consist of two plastic shells that overlap with a superior sliding mechanism. The right and left overlap tabs are connected via a Velcro strap with chafe and loop.
The St. Louis Band (formally known as the O&P Bivalve Molding Helmet in K063395) was last cleared in K180109 by Orthomerica Products Inc. The St. Louis Band is a Bi-Valve design made with an outer shell of 1/4" polyethylene-polypropylene copolymer plastic with an inner liner made of 1/4" Aliplast foam (closed cell polyethylene). The Bi-Valve design consists of two plastic shells that overlap and are held together with rivet fasteners. The St. Louis Band utilizes a Velcro® strap with chafe and loop for a secure fit.
{5}------------------------------------------------
The Cranial Comparison Utility (CCU) is a software component for a previously cleared shape capture method, the STARscanner Data Acquisition System, distributed by Orthomerica Products, Inc. The CCU is a separate software program that is designed to present specific measurements derived from a three-dimensional (3D) digital model and can be used to compare three-dimensional (3D) digital models during the patient treatment period for the purpose of tracking progress. These presented measurements can be incorporated into the patient assessment.
The proposed addition is a new software component for a previously cleared shape capture method, the NetVirta SmartSoc Data Acquisition System, distributed by Orthomerica Products, Inc. The new software component is the Measurement Comparison Utility (MCU). The MCU is a separate software program, not used in manufacturing, which is designed to present specific measurements derived from a threedimensional (3D) digital model and can be used to compare three-dimensional (3D) digital models during the patient treatment period for the purpose of tracking progress. These presented measurements can be incorporated into the patient assessment.

| Indications | The St. Louis Band is intended for medical<br>purposes for use on infants from 3 to 18<br>months of age, with moderate-to-severe<br>non-synostotic positional plagiocephaly,<br>including infants with plagiocephalic-,<br>brachycephalic- and scaphocephalic-<br>shaped heads by applying mild pressure to<br>prominent regions of the infant's cranium<br>in order to improve cranial symmetry<br>and/or shape. This device is also indicated<br>for adjunctive use for infants from 3 to 18<br>months of age whose synostosis has been<br>surgically corrected, but who still have<br>moderate-to-severe cranial deformities<br>including plagiocephalic-, brachycephalic-<br>and scaphocephalic-shaped heads. | The St. Louis Band is intended for medical<br>purposes for use on infants from 3 to 18<br>months of age, with moderate-to-severe<br>non-synostotic positional plagiocephaly,<br>including infants with plagiocephalic-,<br>brachycephalic- and scaphocephalic-<br>shaped heads by applying mild pressure to<br>prominent regions of the infant's cranium<br>in order to improve cranial symmetry<br>and/or shape.
