Intended Use
Babytherm 8004 / 8010 is an infant warmer system intended as a therapeutic device providing warmth for premature and full-term neonates and infants with a weight up to 16 lbs. It is intended for use in delivery rooms, operating theatres, maternity and obstetric units, neonatal wards, neonatal and paediatric intensive care units. Both Systems can be equipped with the optional phototherapy system for treatment of Hyperbilirubinemia.
Device Story
Babytherm 8004/8010 is an integrated infant warmer system combining radiant heating, optional conductive heated gel mattress (8010 only), and optional phototherapy. The device uses ceramic heaters for radiant warmth and halogen bulbs for phototherapy. It operates in manual or skin temperature control modes. The system is used in delivery rooms, ORs, and NICUs by clinicians. It features microprocessor-based digital control, self-calibration, and dual-channel temperature monitoring (core/peripheral). The control unit provides visual/audible alarms for power failure, probe faults, and setpoint deviations. The device improves upon predicate radiant heaters and phototherapy units by integrating these functions into a single housing with improved reflector geometry for uniform irradiance and enhanced safety features compliant with IEC 601-2-21. Clinicians use the digital interface to set parameters, and the device provides continuous thermal support and monitoring to maintain infant homeostasis, potentially reducing cold stress and treating hyperbilirubinemia.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. The device was tested against international standards, specifically IEC 601-2-21, to verify thermal performance, irradiance distribution, and safety features (alarms, probe failure, overtemperature protection).
Technological Characteristics
Microprocessor-based digital control system. Radiant heating via ceramic elements; conductive heating via 24 VAC aluminum plate/heating foil (8010). Phototherapy via 6 halogen bulbs. Applied part type BF. Connectivity: standalone. Materials: PS-TSG case. Dimensions: 1820-2385mm height. Power: 110/120 VAC. Safety: self-calibrating, dual-channel temperature monitoring, audible/visual alarms, overheat protection.
Indications for Use
Indicated for premature and full-term neonates and infants up to 16 lbs requiring thermal regulation or phototherapy for hyperbilirubinemia.
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.
Special Controls
*Classification.* Class II (Special Controls):(1) The Association for the Advancement of Medical Instrumentation (AAMI) Voluntary Standard for the Infant Radiant Warmer;
(2) A prescription statement in accordance with § 801.109 of this chapter (restricted to use by or upon the order of qualified practitioners as determined by the States); and
(3) Labeling for use only in health care facilities and only by persons with specific training and experience in the use of the device.

# Explanation of Differences related to the Table of Comparison:
1. The ThermoMonitoring function uses two sensors for temperature measurement: One for the peripherally and one for the core sensor.
2. For the Babytherm 8004 / 8010 other types of ceramic heaters are used. The geometry of the reflectors was improved. The performance still meets the requirements of IEC 601-2-21.
3. The maximum irradiance was improved because of better reflector geometry. The device still meets the requirements of IEC 601-2-21.
4. This is an improved performance. The device still meets the requirements of IEC 601-2-21.
5. Two temperature channels for core and peripheral temperature with a range from 15°C to 42°C.
6. This is an improved safety requirement of IEC 601-2-21.
7. By this modification an even distribution of the irradiance over an area of 20 x 40 cm is achieved.
8. see explanation number 7.
9. Change in LED Colour to fullfill exactly this requirement of IEC 601.
10. This is an improved safety feature for the radiant heater.
11. The allowable deviation may be changed by the user in a range from 0.3°C to 1.0°C
12. For the Babytherm 8004/8010 at level 3 the heater output is approximately 9 mW/cm², level 2 corresponds to heater output of 6 mW/cm². According to 601-2-21 the 15 Minutes-Alarm has to be activated at a heater output of more than 10 mW/cm².

# DESCRIPTION OF THE DEVICE:
Babytherm 8004 / 8010 is a warmer system for infants that provides a combination of a heated mattress (Babytherm 8010, only), a radiant heater and an optional phototherapy system. The radiant heater is in a fixed position over the mattress and is equipped with an examination light. The phototherapy system can be installed by the manufacturer or by the biomedical engineer in the housing of the radiant heater.
Babytherm 8004 provides warmth by a radiant heater in "manual mode" or with "skin temperature control".
Babytherm 8010 provides warmth by a radiant heater in "manual mode" or with "skin temperature control". The Babytherm 8010 also has a heated gel mattress for conductive warmth.

# SUMMARY OF THE TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF THE DEVICE COMPARED TO THE PREDICATE DEVICES:
The Babytherm 8004 / 8010 are substantially equivalent to the predicate devices Babytherm 8000 WB, Radiant Heater RH 600, Phototherapy PT 4000 and Phototherapy Microlite™.
The function of the Babytherm 8004 / 8010 including the optional Phototherapy is also covered by the predicate devices and the equivalent intended use is covered by these devices, too.
The Babytherm 8004 / 8010 fulfil at least the same international standards as the predicate devices of Dräger and has been tested according to these standards. Therefore the Babytherm 8004 / 8010 are as safe and effective as the predicate devices.

Dear Mr. Kneuer:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to 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). 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.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the current Good Manufacturing Practice requirement, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic (QS) inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531
{10}
Page 2 - Mr. Kneuer
through 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations.
This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.
If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801 and additionally 809.10 for in vitro diagnostic devices), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4618. Additionally, for questions on the promotion and advertising of your device, please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4639. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR 807.97).
