## Indications for Use

The HILT Family Laser is intended to provide topical heating for the purpose of elevating tissue temperature for the temporary relief of muscle and joint pain and stiffness, arthritis pain, or muscle spasm, the temporary increase in local blood circulation and/or promoting relaxation of muscle.

## Device Story

HILT Family Laser (HILT I, II, III) is an Nd:YAG infrared lamp system emitting 1,064 nm wavelength for heat therapy. Device delivers energy via contact or non-contact handpieces connected by 600 µm fiber optic cable. Non-contact handpiece uses spacer between output window and patient skin. System operates at 230 VAC; provides up to 10 Watts power. Pulse widths range 60-150 µs; repetition rates 10-40 Hz. Used by clinicians to elevate tissue temperature, providing temporary relief of muscle/joint pain, stiffness, arthritis, or muscle spasm, and to increase local blood circulation and promote muscle relaxation.

## Clinical Evidence

No clinical data; bench testing only.

## Technological Characteristics

Nd:YAG laser; 1064 nm wavelength; 10W max power; 60-150 µs pulse width; 10-40 Hz repetition rate. Delivery via 600 µm fiber optic cable. Configurations: HILT I (non-contact), HILT II (non-contact), HILT III (contact and non-contact). Electrical: 230 VAC, 15A, 50-60 Hz.

## Regulatory Identification

An infrared lamp is a device intended for medical purposes that emits energy at infrared frequencies (approximately 700 nanometers to 50,000 nanometers) to provide topical heating.

## Special Controls

*Classification.* Class II (special controls). The device, when it is an infrared therapeutic heating lamp, is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 890.9.

## Predicate Devices

- MLT-1000 IR Laser System
