Indications for Use

The TECOTHERM NEO is a temperature management system for pediatric patients, indicated for controlling and monitoring patient's temperature through conductive heat transfer.

Device Story

TECOTHERM NEO is a thermal regulating system for neonates and pediatric patients (up to 50 kg). It uses a water-based fluid circulating through a polyurethane mattress or wrap to provide conductive heating or cooling. The system includes a cold/heat generating unit, interconnecting hoses, and accessories. It accepts input from calibrated patient temperature probes (YSI 400 series compatible). A microcomputer-based Operational System and Controlling System manage the closed-loop circuit, maintaining set temperatures within +/- 0.3 °C. The device features a user menu for treatment mode selection and monitoring. It provides alarms for temperature deviations, probe faults, and fluid flow issues. The system is designed for clinical use to manage patient temperature, potentially benefiting patients by providing precise thermal therapy. It is smaller and has lower power/fluid requirements than adult-focused predicate devices.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing verified biocompatibility, durability under transport conditions, and functional performance. Clinical evidence is supported by the Europe-wide TOBY trial (referenced via URL), demonstrating the effectiveness of the therapy type.

The system applies cold and heat to total body, body parts and areas depending on therapy target by means of mattresses and/wrap. {4}------------------------------------------------ The main application is Total Body Treatment of Children up to body mass of 50 kg. TECOTHERM NEO consists of a unique cold & heat generating device, applied parts like mattresses/wrap, interconnecting hoses (tubing set), accessories. Applied parts are connected to the device via hoses by self- sealing quickdisconnect couplings. The patient is provided with cold or heat according to the therapy target in a fully controlled way by a circulating fluid. This physiologic safe water- based fluid is cooled or warmed in the device and flows through the mattress or wrap continuously supplying the patient with therapeutically prescribed doses. Patient temperatures are measured with approved calibrated probes connected to the TECOTHERM NEO device. Temperature data is permanently communicated to the device Operational System. Circulation of thermalizing fluid to provide cold and heat, accurately reaching set points and operating at set point temperatures accurately with max. deviation of +/-0.3 °C, monitoring the treatment, and alarming when exceeding or falling below temperature limits are performances of TECOTHERM NEO. TECOTHERM NEO is a system with built-in physiologic closed loop circuit PCLC. TECOTHERM NEO is electronically divided into an Operational System and a Controlling System. Both sub systems are micro computer (uC) based. Both uC communicate permanently to ensure safe and proper operation according to therapy needs. A comfortable user MENU will guide the operator to the treatment modes, advise how to proceed the treatment and how to manage treatment details. #### Indications for Use The TECOTHERM NEO is a temperature management system for pediatric patients, indicated for controlling and monitoring patient's temperature through conductive heat transfer. #### Comparative Analysis Enhanced safety by smart design: In comparison to the predicate devices, TECOTHERM NEO has - -Lowest wattage - Lowest maximum fluid temperature - - -Lowest liquid reservoir - -Lowest fluid flow rate {5}------------------------------------------------ This is made possible, because the device is designed especially for neonate and pediatric patients. In any fault condition, there is much less chance of hazardous situations – the machine really fits to the needs for the specific treatment and is not "oversized" as it is the case with devices designed for cooling adults. Listed below are the major attributes of the TECOTHERM NEO compared to the predicate devices listed: Criticool, ArcticSun and Allon 2001 version 5 | Specification | Criticool<br>(primary) | Arctic Sun

Tecotherm Neo has the same intended use as the predicates (albeit only for pediatrics) and similar technological characteristics that do not raise new types of questions of safety and effectiveness and is therefore substantially equivalent to the predicate devices. ## Performance Testing The Tecotherm Neo device was introduced into the European market in 2010. Materials were tested and proven for biocompatibility. The design of the device has been verified and validated both through testing and actual experience throughout Europe. The system was tested and proven for durability under transport conditions by an independent third party. Subsequent functional and performance testing was performed and showed no deterioration in the device integrity. {9}------------------------------------------------ Reports of the above are confidential but were included with this submission as requested. The testing and European experience provided data that demonstrated substantial equivalence to the predicates. The therapy type has been proven in the Europe wide Toby trial. This report can be viewed using the following URL: http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0038504 . ### Conclusion The data from using the device show the high performance level regarding safety and effectiveness. The device is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.
