Intended Use

The Smith & Nephew 25 Fluid Management System is indicated for use during arthroscopic joint surgery to regulate flow of irrigation fluids in the knee, shoulder, hip and small joints to maintain intra-articular pressure for uniform distension and clear visualization of the surgical site.

Device Story

Microprocessor-controlled arthroscopic fluid management system; delivers irrigation fluids during intra-articular surgery. Controls joint pressure independently of aspiration rate across wide flow ranges; maintains constant intra-articular pressure despite varying outflow rates. Compatible with standard arthroscopic inflow cannulae. Used in surgical settings by clinicians. Provides automated pressure regulation to ensure uniform joint distension and clear visualization of surgical site; facilitates surgical procedures by maintaining stable joint environment.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only; software verification and validation performed to demonstrate substantial equivalence to predicate devices.

Technological Characteristics

Microprocessor-controlled fluid management system; regulates irrigation flow and intra-articular pressure. Compatible with standard arthroscopic inflow cannulae. Software-driven control system.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients undergoing arthroscopic joint surgery (knee, shoulder, hip, small joints) requiring irrigation fluid flow regulation to maintain intra-articular pressure, distension, and visualization.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

An arthroscope is an electrically powered endoscope intended to make visible the interior of a joint. The arthroscope and accessories also is intended to perform surgery within a joint.

Predicate Devices The Smith & Nephew 25 Fluid Management System is substantially equivalent in Intended Use and Fundamental Scientific Technology to the following legally marketed device in commercial distribution: The Smith & Nephew InteliJET™ HERMES-Ready (K031605) and Smith & Nephew InteliJET™ Fluid Management Systems (K050580). {1}------------------------------------------------ K05/326 Page 2 of 2 # E. Description of Device The Smith & Nephew 25 Fluid Management System is a microprocessor controlled arthroscopic fluid management system that is designed for controlled delivery of irrigation fluids during intra-articular surgery. The system controls joint pressure independently of aspiration rate over a wide range of flow rates. The system will maintain control of intra-articular pressure regardless of varying outflow rates and may be used with any arthroscopic inflow cannula. #### F. Intended Use The Smith & Nephew 25 Fluid Management System is indicated for use during arthroscopic joint surgery to regulate flow of irrigation fluids in the knee, shoulder, hip and small joints to maintain intra-articular pressure for uniform distension and clear visualization of the surgical site. #### G. Comparison of Technological Characteristics The Smith & Nephew 25 Fluid Management System is substantially equivalent in design, materials, function and intended use to the Smith & Nephew InteliJET™ HERMES-Ready, cleared in K031605 and the Smith & Nephew InteliJET™ Fluid Management System cleared in K050580. The proposed and the prodicate devices both have the same intended use and the same fundamental scientific technology. # H. Summary Performance Data The performance testing and the software verification and validation conducted on the Smith & Nephew 25 Fluid Management System demonstrates substantial equivalence to the Smith & Nephew InteliJET™ HERMES-Ready, cleared in K031605 and the Smith & Nephew InteliJET™ Fluid Management System cleared in K050580. The testing also demonstrates that the differences in the new device and the predicate device do not raise any new issues of safety and efficacy. {2}------------------------------------------------ DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES Image /page/2/Picture/2 description: The image shows the logo for the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.
