The Portable Scalp Cooling System (PSCS) is indicated to reduce the likelihood of chemotherapy-induced alopecia in cancer patients with solid tumors. The PSCS is indicated for adult patients only.

The Portable Scalp Cooling System (PSCS) is a wearable device for people undergoing chemotherapy treatment for solid tumor cancer who want to avoid chemotherapy-induced hair loss, or alopecia. Treatment with the PSCS is administered by a user or caregiver in a treatment center, during travel time to the patient's home and in the home setting. It is designed for continual use during the transition from the infusion center to the patient's home. The portable device provides the cooling therapy by circulating a water/isopropyl alcohol (IPA) mixture through a cooling cap worn securely on the patient's head.

The DigniCap Delta® Scalp Cooling System is indicated to reduce the likelihood of chemotherapy-induced alopecia in cancer patients with solid tumors.

The DigniCap Delta Scalp Cooling System ("DigniCap Delta")is a device that is intended to function as a cooling system to reduce the likelihood of chemotherapy-induced alopecia in cancer patients with solid tumors. The proposed therapy of the new device is comparable to the therapy of the predicate device, DigniCap Scalp Cooling System (K170871). DigniCap Delta cools fluid to a prescribed set temperature and circulates that cooled fluid through a cooling wrap and then back to the device. This mode of operation is equivalent to other scalp cooling devices. User operation of the DigniCap Delta system is carried out on the illuminated graphics display with the integrated touch control, located on the front of the unit. The navigation and selection buttons on the display are used to interface with the device.

The Paxman Scalp Cooler is indicated to reduce the likelihood of chemotherapy-induced alopecia (CIA) in cancer patients with solid tumors.

The Paxman Scalp Cooler is a self-contained, mobile, electrically-powered refrigeration unit that circulates a refrigerated liquid coolant, at a pre-set temperature and flow rate, through a cooling cap, which is fitted to the top of the patient's head and connected to the refrigeration unit by a pair of coolant lines. A touchscreen controller with a menu-driven, graphical user interface, integrated into the refrigeration unit, allows the healthcare professional to initiate, monitor, and complete the scalp cooling process.

The DigniCap® Scalp Cooling System is indicated to reduce the likelihood of chemotherapy-induced alopecia in cancer patients with solid tumors.

The DigniCap® Scalp Cooling System consists of a computer controlled system that includes a refrigerated tank containing the liquid coolant that is maintained at -7 ± 2°C. The coolant circulates from the cooling unit to and through the channels of the cap and back to the cooling unit. The scalp temperature is monitored by three separate sensors. Deviations from the treatment temperature are automatically adjusted by the system (scalp temperature can be controlled with an accuracy of ± 2.0°C). The DigniCap® Scalp Cooling System components include the following: Digni C3 – Is a refrigerator unit with an integral control system operated via a touch screen and is capable of controlling two separate DigniCap® Cooling caps independently of each other. Scalp cooling is performed in conjunction with a silicone inner cap (DigniCap®), an outer neoprene cap (DigniTherm), and the liquid coolant (DigniCool). DigniCap® – A soft, tight-fitting silicone cap which has two separate cooling circuits, one for the front and one for the back of the head. Each cooling circuit is equipped with a temperature sensor, and the cap is also equipped with a third sensor for safety control. The cap is available in different sizes. DigniCool - The liquid coolant monopropylene glycol. DigniTherm - The outer neoprene cap that insulates and keeps the inner cap in place. This neoprene cover cap, called the DigniTherm, comes in different sizes and is colored coded to match the corresponding DigniCap® Cooling cap. DigniStick- A component used to save data from a treatment or for troubleshooting. It can also be used to update software. DigniCard - A key card which has to be inserted in order to start a treatment.

The Paxman Scalp Cooler is indicated to reduce the likelihood of chemotherapy-induced alopecia (CIA) in women with breast cancer.

The Paxman Scalp Cooler is a self-contained, mobile, electrically-powered refrigeration unit that circulates a refrigerated liquid coolant, at a pre-set temperature and flow rate, through a cooling cap, which is fitted to the top of the patient's head and connected to the refrigeration unit by a pair of coolant lines. A touch screen controller with a menu-driven, graphical user interface, integrated into the refrigeration unit, allows the healthcare professional to initiate, monitor, and complete the scalp cooling process. Two (2) models of the Paxman Scalp Cooler are available: - . ORBIS I – featuring one pair of coolant lines for attaching a single cooling cap; designed for scalp cooling of one patient at a time; and, - . ORBIS II – featuring two pairs of coolant lines for attaching two cooling caps; designed for scalp cooling of up to two (2) patients at a time. The touch screen displays a menu-driven Graphical User Interface (GUI) that provides information to the user concerning the operational status of the scalp cooling unit; it also prompts the user to initiate certain actions relating to the scalp cooling procedure and provides a timer count-down function for scalp cooling sessions. The GUI does not, however, directly control the scalp cooling process as there are pre-established programs for the scalp cooling administration. The touch screen controller provides feedback to the user concerning the status of the Paxman Scalp Cooler as it relates to achievement of the pre-set temperature of the coolant, operation of the recirculation pump and connection of a cooling cap to the software also provides a timer count-down function for the initiated pre- and post-infusion cooling procedure. At the pre-set time, a message is displayed on the touch screen and a buzzer sounds to alert the fact that the scalp cooling time is complete.

The DigniCap™ Scalp Cooling System is indicated to reduce the likelihood of chemotherapy induced alopecia in women with breast cancer.

The Dignitana DigmiCap™ Scalp Cooling System consists of a computer controlled system that includes a refrigerated tank containing the cooling agent that is maintained at -8 ± 1 ℃. The liquid coolant circulates from the cooling unit to and through the channels of the cap and back to the cooling unit. The scalp temperature is monitored by three separate thermometers. Deviations from the pre-set temperature are automatically adjusted by the system (scalp temperature can be controlled with an accuracy of ±2.0℃). The DigniCap™ Scalp Cooling System components include the following: Digni C3 system - Is a refrigerator unit with an integral control system operated via a touch screen monitor and is capable of controlling two separate cooling caps independently of each other. Scalp cooling is performed in conjunction with a silicon inner cap (DigniCap™), an outer neoprene cap (DigniTherm™), and the liquid coolant (DigniCool™). DigniCap™ - A soft, tight-fitting silicon cap which has two separate cooling circuits, one for the front of the head and one for the back of the head plus a third sensor for overall safety control. DigniCool™ - The liquid coolant monopropylene glycol (MPG5). DigniTherm™ - The outer neoprene cap that insulates and keeps the inner cap in place. To improve cooling and ensure proper fitting, this cap is covers the DigniCap™ and includes a chin strap which is used to hold the cap in place. This neoprene cover cap, called the DigniTherm™, comes in different sizes and is colored coded to match the corresponding correct silicone Cooling Cap. In addition to acting as a means of maintaining cooling cap placement, this outer cap also provides insulation which improves cooling efficiency DIGNISTICK™ – A component used to save data from a treatment or for troubleshooting when inserted in the slot. It can also be used to update software. DIGNICARD™ – A key card which has to be inserted in order to start a treatment.
