Intended Use
The DT Controlled Phototherapy Equipment devices are indicated for use to treat diagnosed skin disorders such as, but not limited to, psoriasis, vitiligo, and atopic dermatitis (eczema) under the direction of a physician. The population may range from pediatric to geriatric.
Device Description
The DT Controller is a modernization of the DermaPal Controller (510(k) K073587). Like its predicate, the DT Controller is designed to turn a phototherapy device on and off based on time. It is designed to be installed in a wider family of devices. It uses the same 4 button UI with a larger backlit screen for better readability and is based on a more commercially available PIC16 processor. A modification to the way a prescription is entered was done to harmonize the process across different devices.
More Information

Not Found

No
The device description explicitly states it is a modernization of a predicate device and controls the phototherapy based on time, not complex algorithms or data analysis. There are no mentions of AI, ML, image processing, or training/test sets.

Yes
The device is indicated for use to treat diagnosed skin disorders, which is a therapeutic purpose.

No

The device is indicated for treating diagnosed skin disorders using phototherapy, not for diagnosing them. It functions by controlling a phototherapy device (turning it on and off) based on time.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "controller" designed to be "installed in a wider family of devices" and uses a "PIC16 processor," indicating it is a hardware component, not software only.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to treat diagnosed skin disorders using phototherapy. IVDs are used to diagnose diseases or conditions by examining specimens from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue).
  • Device Description: The device is a controller for phototherapy equipment, designed to turn the light on and off based on time. This is a therapeutic function, not a diagnostic one.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological specimens, detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information.

The device is clearly a therapeutic device used for treating skin conditions with light.

Dear Michele Thiel:

We have reviewed your section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database available at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Additional information about changes that may require a new premarket notification are provided in the FDA guidance documents entitled "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Change to an Existing Device" (https://www.fda.gov/media/99812/download) and "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Software Change to an Existing Device" (https://www.fda.gov/media/99785/download).

| Performance
Standards: | The DT controlled phototherapy equipment performance data is the same as or very
similar to that of the claimed predicate devices. The ultraviolet lamps and cabinet
construction used in the production of the predicate device and the DT controlled
phototherapy equipment are the same. The only difference between the predicate
devices and the DT devices is the substitution of the DT controller for actual entry of
treatment. The rest of the devices (materials, construction, treatment modality, patient
safety, etc.) remains exactly the same. |

| Conclusion: | On the basis of the information provided in this Summary, the Daavlin Distributing
Company believes the DT controlled phototherapy equipment is substantially
equivalent to the legally commercialized predicate devices. |
