Intended Use
The Flex controlled phototherapy equipment is a medical ultraviolet device, which is intended for the treatment of psoriasis, vitiligo, and atopic dermatitis (eczema) on all skin types (1 - VI).
Device Description
The Flex controlled phototherapy equipment is a microprocessor controlled fluorescent uitraviolet light source, with spectral output at peak wavelengths of 311 nm (Narrow Band UVB), 305 m (Broad Band UVB) and 350 nm (UVA). It is intended for use by or under the direction of a physician, for the treatment of psoriasis, vitiligo, and atopic dermatitis (eczema). The desired dose is selected using the operator interface located on the front panel of the device. The Flex controlled devices deliver full body phototherapy, whereby fluorescent tubes deliver the specified dose of UVA and/or UVB light.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a microprocessor-controlled phototherapy device that delivers a selected dose of UV light. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any other technology typically associated with AI/ML in the provided text.

Yes
The device is intended for the treatment of medical conditions such as psoriasis, vitiligo, and atopic dermatitis, which classifies it as a therapeutic device.

No

The device is described as medical ultraviolet phototherapy equipment intended for the treatment of various skin conditions, not for diagnosis.

No

The device description explicitly states it is "microprocessor controlled fluorescent ultraviolet light source" and mentions "fluorescent tubes" and "cabinet construction," indicating it is a hardware device that delivers light therapy.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Function: The Flex controlled phototherapy equipment is a medical device that uses ultraviolet light to treat skin conditions directly on the patient's body. It does not analyze samples taken from the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states treatment of psoriasis, vitiligo, and atopic dermatitis, which are conditions treated externally with light therapy.

Therefore, this device falls under the category of a therapeutic medical device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Device Description:

The Flex controlled phototherapy equipment is a microprocessor controlled fluorescent uitraviolet light source, with spectral output at peak wavelengths of 311 nm (Narrow Band UVB), 305 m (Broad Band UVB) and 350 nm (UVA). It is intended for use by or under the direction of a physician, for the treatment of psoriasis, vitiligo, and atopic dermatitis (eczema). The desired dose is selected using the operator interface located on the front panel of the device. The Flex controlled devices deliver full body phototherapy, whereby fluorescent tubes deliver the specified dose of UVA and/or UVB light.

Predicate Device Comparison:

The Flex controlled phototherapy equipment is constructed in the same design configuration as the predicate device, utilizing identical energy sources (UV lamps) and materials of identical composition. The Flex controlled devices vary from the predicate device, in that the control system hardware and software of the Flex control has been updated to utilize current technology. The intended use, general and specific indications for use, spectral output, mode of operation, labeling, treatment area, and general operating principals of the Flex controlled equipment are the same or similar to those of the predicate device.

Intended Use:

The Daavlin Flex controlled phototherapy equipment is a medical ultraviolet light source, which is intended for use for the treatment of psoriasis, vitiligo, and atopic dermatitis (eczema) on all skin types (I - VI).

Performance Data:
