The BiliCocoon™ Phototherapy System is intended for the treatment of unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia in the population of neonates and infants under 3 months old and weighing less than 10kg. It can be used in the clinical setting or in the home.
The BiliCocoon™ Phototherapy System is a phototherapy system designed to treat unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia in newborns and infants under 3 months old and weighing less than 10kg. It is a phototherapy device, which emits light in the absorption spectrum of the bilirubin, from 430 to 490 nm. A custom optic directs light from the LEDs into the fiberoptic Pad. The system is composed of a blue light electronic generator - the Light Box - and of a light emitting fabric – the Pad – which transmits the blue light to the newborn. The Pad is provided in two versions: Bag Pad. The Light Box has a user interface to set the session time and inform the user about eventual errors. The other parameters of the therapy (irradiance level, light wavelength, etc.) are fixed.
The BiliCocoon™ Phototherapy System is used with the BiliCocoon™ Disposable, a non-woven disposable designed to fit the Pad which interfaces between the newborn. The disposable is the only part which contacts the newborn skin.
The BiliCocoon™ Phototherapy System can be fixed on the BiliCocoon™ Fixation system.
Here's an analysis of the provided text regarding the acceptance criteria and study for the BiliCocoon™ Phototherapy System (K163526).
It's important to note that this document is a 510(k) summary, which focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device, not necessarily proving efficacy through a clinical trial. Therefore, the information provided primarily pertains to bench testing and comparison, rather than comprehensive clinical study data as might be expected for novel devices or PMAs.
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
The document does not explicitly present a table of acceptance criteria with corresponding device performance for a specific statistical endpoint (e.g., accuracy, sensitivity, specificity) relevant to a diagnostic or AI-driven device. Instead, the "acceptance criteria" are implied by the performance of the predicate device and relevant industry standards. The "reported device performance" is largely described through a comparison against the predicate and adherence to safety and performance standards.
The closest equivalent to "acceptance criteria" for a phototherapy device would be its light output specifications and safety characteristics.

Comment 1
The predicate device is intended for the treatment of hyperbilirubinemia in the neonate population. Hyperbilirubinemia in neonates is a common pathology which is characterized by an augmentation bilirubin. Hyperbilirubinemia is commonly associated to unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia because it is the most common pathology creating an augmentation of bilirubin. Phototherapy is a method to treat unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia by transforming bilirubin into water-soluble isomers that can be eliminated without conjugation in the liver.
The subject devices restricts the intended use to unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia which is the most common form of hyperbilirubinemia. Conjugated hyperbilirubinemia is rare and not treated by phototherapy device intended to treat hyperbilirubinemia is essentially referring to unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia. Intended use of Bilicocoon™ Phototherapy System is thus equivalent to the intended use of the predicate device.
The claimed targeted population is also different but this difference does not bring any additional risk. Neonates are defined by the Agency as birth to 28 days. However, the chosen the targeted population is up to 3 months and 10kg. This will not change the risk, as an older and heavier population is less critical.
Comment 2
Both devices use the same principle - blue light, peak emission range 430-490nm and irradiance >30uW/cm²/nm - recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics for intensive phototherapy treatment. The difference in the light peak emission, irradiance and surface area for treatment does not raise new or different questions of safety or effectiveness.
{6}------------------------------------------------
Comment 3
The connector of the BiliCocoon™ Phototherapy System is based on the same technologies than the predicate, except that the subject device employs solutions to prevent overheating and fiber degradation due to heat. The same electrical safety and performance testing was performed for both the subject and predicate device.
Comment 4
There are no relevant differences in the therapy, except that the subject device enables to cover a larger portion of the body surface of the infant, by providing larger fiber optic pads and the possibility of illuminating from underneath and above the patient. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends covering as much as possible the body surface of the infant for phototherapy treatment. Therefore the differences in treatment area do not raise new or different questions of safety or effectiveness.
Comment 5
The predicate device disposable component material is non-woven polypropylene. The BiliCocoon™ Phototherapy System disposable is non-woven polyester viscose. Both devices underwent the same biocompatbility tests per ISO 10993 for the patient contacting materials and met the same requirements; thereby these are substantially equivalent.
Comment 6
●
The predicate software and the BiliCocon™ Phototherapy System software remain linked to the microcontroller, without any communication, interpretation or data exchange feature. The BiliCocoon™ Phototherapy System adds a screen and navigation button to set up a timer, but is not adding any risks as both the predicate device and the subject device can be switched off manually and safely at any time.
Performance Testing
The following bench testing was performed and reviewed to support the substantial equivalence of the subject device:
- Biocompatibility tests performed per ISO 10993 for patient contacting materials (disposable cover).
- O The disposable cover is considered a skin-contacting device with prolonged exposure
- Cytotoxicity per ISO 10993-5, USP 87
- . Intracutaneous irritation Study per ISO 10993-10
- . Sensitization per ISO 10993-10, USP 88
- O The disposable cover is considered a skin-contacting device with prolonged exposure
- Bench tests performed to measure spectral output. light irradiance and effective surface treatment area. ●
- Electrical safety tests performed per IEC 60601-1 (3ra edition A1:2012) ●
- Electromagnetic Compatibility tests (EMI/EMC) performed per IEC 60601-1-2 (4th edition). ●
- Phototherapy safety and performance tests performed per IEC 60601-2-50 (2na edition). ●
- Home Use has been assessed per IEC 60601-1-11 (2w edition:2015) and the FDA Guidance, "Applying Human ● Factors and Usability Engineering to Medical Devices"
- . Photobiological safety assessed with IEC 62471.
- Cleaning Validation Testing .
There is no difference of non-clinical testing performed between the device under submission and the predicate device.

Conclusions
The differences between the predicate and the subject device do not raise any new or different questions of safety or effectiveness. The BiliCocoon™ Phototherapy System is substantially equivalent to the NeoBLUE blanket LED Phototherapy System cleared under K103589 with respect to the indications for use, target populations, treatment method, and technological characteristics.
