Overview

AI-generated summary, 1 Oct 2026

Written by a language model from registry data. Not verified by deviCERTS or the manufacturer. The registry data above is the record.

The Isolette Infant Incubator is a neonatal device classified as an incubator, designed to provide a controlled thermal-neutral environment for low birth weight infants. It maintains precise temperature and humidity levels to support physiological stability and promote optimal neonatal care. The device is engineered to replicate the womb-like conditions necessary for vulnerable newborns, particularly those with limited thermoregulatory capacity. Its primary function is to ensure thermal comfort while minimizing energy expenditure in preterm or sick infants.

The Isolette Infant Incubator is intended for use in general hospital settings, specifically neonatal care units. It is supplied as a reusable medical device and requires proper cleaning and maintenance between uses to ensure sterility and functionality. The device is classified under FDA regulation number 880.5400 and has received a Traditional 510(k) clearance, confirming its substantial equivalence to a predicate device. Models are available in various configurations, including C100 and C200 series, with specifications tailored for neonatal use, though exact model variations are not detailed in regulatory records.

Questions

AI-generated answers, 1 Oct 2026

Written by a language model from registry data. Not verified by deviCERTS or the manufacturer. The registry data above is the record.

  • What is the primary purpose of the Isolette Infant Incubator?

    The Isolette Infant Incubator is designed to create a controlled thermal-neutral environment for low birth weight or preterm infants who struggle with thermoregulation. By maintaining stable temperature and humidity levels, it mimics the protective conditions of the womb, reducing energy expenditure and supporting physiological stability in vulnerable newborns during critical early development.

  • How is the Isolette Infant Incubator supplied and prepared for use?

    The Isolette Infant Incubator is supplied as a reusable medical device. Between uses, it requires thorough cleaning and maintenance to ensure sterility and proper functionality. Proper disinfection protocols must be followed to prevent cross-contamination and maintain device integrity for subsequent patient care.

  • Are there different models available for the Isolette Infant Incubator?

    Yes, the Isolette Infant Incubator is available in multiple configurations, including the C100 and C200 series. These models are tailored for neonatal use, though specific variations in features or specifications are not detailed in regulatory records. The choice of model may depend on clinical needs, such as incubator size or advanced monitoring capabilities.

  • Can the Isolette Infant Incubator be used outside of neonatal care units?

    The device is specifically intended for use in general hospital settings, particularly neonatal care units. While its design supports critical neonatal care, its regulatory classification and intended use are focused on environments where preterm or sick infants require controlled thermal environments. Use in other settings would require validation of safety and efficacy for those specific applications.

  • What regulatory pathway does the Isolette Infant Incubator follow?

    The Isolette Infant Incubator has undergone a Traditional 510(k) clearance process through the FDA, confirming its substantial equivalence to a predicate device. This pathway ensures that the device meets established safety and performance standards for neonatal incubators. The device is classified under FDA regulation number 880.5400, reflecting its classification as a Class II medical device.
