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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
  • Device Function: The PBM Hair Therapy Cap is a light therapy device that applies red light directly to the scalp. It does not analyze any samples taken from the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is to treat Androgenetic Alopecia and promote hair growth, which is a therapeutic application, not a diagnostic one.

The device description and intended use clearly indicate it's a therapeutic device for external use, not a diagnostic tool that analyzes biological samples.

ithium-ion battery, has an on/off button and in programmed to automatically turn of after 15min of use. The controller also has a 2 small indicator LED's for indicating, power on/in use, needs charging and also blinks while in charging mode. The controller charges via inbuilt C-Type USB port and charges at 500 mA.

Intended Use/Indications for Use

The PBM Hair Therapy Cap is indicated to treat And promote hair growth in females who have Ludwig-Savin Scale I to II, males who have Norwood Hamilton Classifications of Ila to V patterns of hair loss, females and males with frontal patterns of hair-loss both with Fitzpatrick Skin Types I to IV.

Indications for Use Comparison

The indications for use statements are substantially equivalent, just worded sightly differently. Both are indicated for the same patient populations and have the same intended use.

Technological Comparison

Both the PBM Hair Therapy Cap Device and Revian Red utilize LLLT mechanism of action with textile hair growth on the scalp in the same indicated patient population. The technical specifications of the PBM Hair Therapy Cap and the predicate Revian Red are comparable. The noted minor differences in technological characteristics, such as battery types (lithium polymer), wave-lengths (660 nm) and number of red LEDs (84 versus 119 Red LEDs) and treatment durations (15 minutes versus 10 minutes), are considered negligible and do not affect the therapeutic value or safety profile. Both devices are classified as class 3R laser systems in accordance with IEC standards and share a substantially equivalent adverse event profile. Many of the characteristics which differ between the PBM Hair Therapy Cap and the predicate, The Time Machine Series Lasers device, are due to the PBM Hair Therapy Cap being a subset of the intended use and indications for use of the predicate device and fall within the cleared spectrum of technical characteristics of the predicate device (e.g. fall within the cleared wavelength, etc.). None of these differences raises new or different questions of safety or effectiveness.
