Diagnostic ultrasound imaging or fluid flow analysis of the human body as follows:

Device Story

The PR3 Ultrasound System is a diagnostic imaging device utilizing the 6.5 R11 Endocavity Probe. It captures ultrasound signals to perform imaging or fluid flow analysis. Operated by clinicians in a medical setting, the system processes acoustic data to generate visual representations of internal anatomy. The output is displayed for the healthcare provider to assist in diagnostic decision-making. The device is intended for transrectal applications. It provides non-invasive visualization, aiding in the assessment of patient health. The manufacturer is required to submit acoustic output measurements to ensure compliance with safety standards.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided. The clearance is based on bench testing requirements, specifically the submission of acoustic output measurements as outlined in the FDA's September 30, 1997 guidance for diagnostic ultrasound systems.

Technological Characteristics

Diagnostic ultrasound system with 6.5 R11 Endocavity Probe. Operates via ultrasound imaging and fluid flow analysis. Subject to 21 CFR 892.1560 and 892.1570. Requires adherence to acoustic output safety standards.

Indications for Use

Indicated for diagnostic ultrasound imaging or fluid flow analysis of the human body, specifically for transrectal clinical applications using the 6.5 R11 Endocavity Probe. Prescription use only per 21 CFR 801.109.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

An ultrasonic pulsed echo imaging system is a device intended to project a pulsed sound beam into body tissue to determine the depth or location of the tissue interfaces and to measure the duration of an acoustic pulse from the transmitter to the tissue interface and back to the receiver. This generic type of device may include signal analysis and display equipment, patient and equipment supports, component parts, and accessories.

Special Controls

*Classification.* Class II (special controls). A biopsy needle guide kit intended for use with an ultrasonic pulsed echo imaging system only is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 892.9.

You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. 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. This determination of substantial equivalence applies to the following transducers intended for use with the PR3 Ultrasound System, as described in your premarket notification: Transducer Model Number 6.5 R11 Endocavity Probe If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval) it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the Good Manufacturing Practice requirement, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (OS) for Medical Devices: General (GMP) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic QS inspections, the FDA will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification does not affect any obligation you may have under sections 531 and 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations. Please be advised that the determination above is based on the fact that no medical devices have been demonstrated to be safe and effective for in vitro fertilization or percutaneous umbilical blood sampling, nor have any devices been marketed for these uses in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, or reclassified into class I (General Controls) or class II (Special Controls). FDA considers devices specifically intended for in vitro fertilization and percutaneous umbilical blood sampling to be investigational, and subject to the investigational device {1}------------------------------------------------ Page -2- Dr. Turner been marketed for these uses in interce prior to May 28, 1976, or reclassified into class 1 (General Controls) or class II (Special Controls). FDA considers devices specifically intended for in vitro fertilization and percutaneous umbilical blood sampling to be investigational, and subject to the provision of the investigational device exemptions (IDE) regulations, 21 CFR, Part 812. Therefore, your product labeling must be consistent with FDA's position on this use. This determination of substantial equivalence is granted on the condition that prior to shipping the first device, you submit a postclearance special report. This report should contain complete information, including acoustic output measurements based on production line devices, requested in Appendix G, (enclosed) of the Center's September 30, 1997 "Information for Manufacturers Seeking Marketing Clearance of Diagnostic Ultrasound Systems and Transducers." If the special report is incomplete or contains unacceptable values (e.g., acoustic output greater than approved levels), then the 510(k) clearance may not apply to the production units which as a result may be considered adulterated or misbranded. The special report should reference the manufacturer's 510(k) number. It should be clearly and prominently marked "ADD-TO-FILE" and should be submitted in duplicate to: > Food and Drug Administration Center for Devices and Radiological Health Document Mail Center (HFZ-401) 9200 Corporate Boulevard Rockville, Maryland 20850 This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus permits your device to proceed to market. If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801 and additionally 809.10 for in vitro diagnostic devices), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4591. Additionally, for questions on the promotion and advertising of your device, please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4639. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR 807.97). Other general information on your responsibilities under the Act may be obtained from the Division of Small Manufacturers Assistance at its toll-free number (800) 638-2041 or at (301) 443-6597 or at its internet address "http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/dsmamain.html".
