## Indications for Use

Intended for the relaxation of muscles and relief of muscle spasms; temporary relief of minor muscle and joint aches, pains, and stiffness; temporary relief of minor pain and stiffness associated with arthritis; and to temporarily increase local blood circulation.

## Device Story

DPL Therapy System is a compact infrared lamp for therapeutic heating. Device consists of two detachable panels on a desk stand; used individually or as a pair on the body. Device delivers infrared light to skin to elevate local temperature. Features automatic 17-minute timed cycle; reaches target skin temperature in 8 minutes. Operated by user in home or clinical setting. Provides therapeutic heat to relax muscles, relieve spasms, and temporarily increase local blood circulation; aids in temporary relief of minor aches, pains, and stiffness associated with arthritis. Benefits patient through non-invasive thermal therapy.

## Clinical Evidence

Clinical studies conducted on male and female subjects demonstrated that therapeutic heat is attained and safe temperatures are maintained for the duration of the 17-minute treatment time. No adverse effects or complications were encountered.

## Technological Characteristics

Compact infrared lamp system; two detachable panels on a desk stand. Delivers infrared light for therapeutic heating. Automatic 17-minute timed cycle. Electrical safety: IEC 60601-1-1:2000. Electromagnetic compatibility: EN 60601-1-2:2001.

## 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
