The Sodem High Speed motor allows the fixation of spindles, which operate with drills, burs and cutters for drilling, cutting and sculpting hard tissue and bone for ear, nose and throat surgery.
Motor, attachments and cutting tools are for use in ear, nose and throat surgery.
The Sodem High Speed System (Electric) is a complete system including:
- two motors (a Skull Perforator motor* and a High Speed motor), -
- a foot pedal, -
- a console allowing to connect the motors and to select their max. operating speed, -
- dedicated wires to connect the motors, the foot pedal and the console, -
- ー. attachments/spindles,
- drills, burs and cutters -
- A separate 510(k) Premarket Notification has been submitted for neurolspine surgery, so on this 510(k) submission, we will cover only the High Speed Motor and its use in ear, nose and throat surgery.
The motor is to be attached to the Sodem High Speed console and is operated with a foot pedal.
The Sodem High Speed System (Electric) is an electrical system developed in conformity with the norms IEC 60601 and UL 2601.
The Sodem High Speed System (Electric) is very similar in terms of use and technological characteristics to products currently on the market (TPS from Stryker and E9000 / Advantage from Linvatec).
Also, the Sodem High Speed System (Electric) is equivalent in terms of use with the Sodem High Speed System (Pneumatic) already submitted (K954717).
The provided text is a 510(k) Summary for the Sodem High Speed System (Electric) and a subsequent FDA clearance letter. It describes the device, its intended use, and its substantial equivalence to predicate devices. However, this document does not contain any information about acceptance criteria, efficacy studies, or specific performance metrics demonstrating that the device meets acceptance criteria.
The FDA clearance is based on the device being "substantially equivalent" to predicate devices already on the market (TPS from Stryker and E9000/Advantage from Linvatec). This means the manufacturer argued that their new device is as safe and effective as the existing devices, primarily by comparing their intended use, materials, sterility, system description (console, accessories), and electrical power characteristics.
Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information. The document explicitly states:
- No acceptance criteria are listed.
- No studies proving the device meets acceptance criteria are described.
- No sample sizes, data provenance, expert qualifications, adjudication methods, MRMC studies, standalone performance data, or ground truth details are present.
The crucial comparison points for substantial equivalence are highlighted in section 6 and confirm similarities in:
- Intended use: Both Sodem and predicate devices are for ear, nose, and throat surgery for drilling, cutting, and sculpting hard tissue and bone.
- Materials: All patient contact materials are surgical stainless steel.
- Sterility Status: All are supplied non-sterile (except specific drills/burs with their own 510k) and require steam sterilization after use.
- System Description (Console, Accessories, Electrical Power):
- Consoles connect motors and select speed, with similar functionalities.
- Accessories like chucks, adapters, spindles, and burs are comparable.
- The nominal power output is "identical or substantially equivalent."
- The maximum drill speed is within a similar range (Sodem: 0-80,000 rpm; Linvatec: 0-80,000 rpm; Stryker: 0-75,000 rpm).
The manufacturer's conclusion is that "any differences between the Sodem High Speed System (Electric) and these other currently available powered systems are minor and raise no new issues of safety and effectiveness."
In summary, the provided text does not contain the information requested regarding acceptance criteria and performance study details because the clearance was based on substantial equivalence, not on specific performance data against predefined acceptance criteria for a new clinical efficacy claim.

510(k) SUMMAR Y FOR SODEM HIGH SPEED SYSTEM (ELECTRIC) (EAR, NOSE AND THROAT)
6. BASIS FOR CLAIM OF SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE
The Sodem High Speed System (Electric) claims substantial equivalence to other currently marketed high-speed electric power systems. This claim is based on equivalence in:
Intended use
The Sodem High Speed System (Electric) and predicate electric instruments share the same clinical applications and intended used (ear, nose and throat surgery).
Materials
Patient contact materials for all systems consist of surgical stainless steel.
Sterility Status
All systems are supplied non-sterile except drills and burs (special 510k NºK994175 for sterile drills and burs), requiring reprocessing between surgical applications. Sterilization of all systems is accomplished using steam. All systems require decontamination after use, and resterilization by the user facility.
System Description
- Console
All cited systems are operated using an electrical power console. Console allows to select motors and to choose operating speed. All console provide one or more connection for several hand pieces/motors (ex E9000 of Linvatec one connection for 14 hand pieces, TPS of Stryker 3 connections for approximately 10 hand pieces). Difference between Sodem console and other currently marketed consoles is that Sodem console has two specific connection (one for High Speed Motor, and one for Skull Perforator Motor, an inversion is not possible).
Accessories ।
The Sodem High Speed System (Electric) and predicate systems consist of various attachments (burs, spindles). All offer a wide variety of accessories including but not limited to chuck, adapters, spindles and burs. The technical characteristics of the various adapters are identical or similar. That is, adapters allow the use of hand pieces with various power system accessories.
Some hand pieces are designed with a terminal angle (nose piece). The Sodem and Stryker systems have an angled nose. The Linvatec E9000 / Advantage systems have an integral angling capability from straight to 20 degrees with a twist of the collet. All systems feature to ability to change burs and spindles without the need for a wrench.

510(k) SUMMARY FOR SODEM HIGH SPEED SYSTEM (ELECTRIC) (EAR, NOSE AND THROAT)
-Electrical power
All cited systems are operated using an electrical power source controlled by a foot pedal. For all systems, users can choose maximum operating speed on the console and with the foot pedal increase or reduce speed until maximum speed selected.
The nominal power output of the Sodem High Speed System is identical or substantially equivalent to the other commercially available electrical motors (Linvatec, Stryker). The maximum drill speed of the Sodem High Speed System (Electric) is adjustable with the console from 0-80'000 rpm, the drill speed of the E9000 / Advantage system of Linvatec is adjustable with the console from 0-80'000 rpm, the drill speed of the TPS of Stryker is adjustable with the console from 0-75'000 rpm.
Based on the above comparison, SodemSystems believes that the Sodem High Speed System (Electric) is substantially equivalent to the systems cited, that any differences between the Sodem High Speed System (Electric) and these other currently available powered systems are minor and raise no new issues of safety and effectiveness.
