Intended Use
The EM-9000 Lithotripsy system is intended to fragment urinary stones in the kidney (renal pelvis and renal calyces) and ureter (upper, middle, and lower ureter).
Device Description
The EM-9000 consists of: (1) a Therapy Unit; and (2) a Control Interface Master. The Therapy Unit consists of the following sub-modules: (a) shock wave generator with therapy head; (b) patient table (c) optional Ultrasound Localization System ("ULS"); and (d) accessories. The Electronics Module is mounted within the EM-9000's Housing. Since all of the assembly parts are collected on the main body of the unit, it is a self-contained unit for providing the lithotripsy application. The Control Interface Master consists of the following sub-modules: Hand Held Remote Control Box, Hand Held Table Control Box and Foot Pedal (Optional) The shock wave generator has a high voltage power supply, a closed circuit water supply system with a tank, an electromagnetic coil, a membrane, an acoustical lens for focusing and a water cushion (rubber membrane) for the acoustic conductivity of the shock waves to the patient. The shock waves are generated by the high voltage discharge through the electromagnetic coil which repels the membrane creating a shockwave. The shockwave is then focused to the focal point. The stones to be fragmented are positioned at this focal point by moving the motorized patient table in 3 axis. The localization is performed with a separate and commercially available mobile fluoroscopic x-ray unit.

No
The document does not mention AI, ML, deep learning, or any related terms in the device description, intended use, or performance studies. The localization is described as being performed with a separate fluoroscopic x-ray unit and an optional ultrasound system, and stone positioning is done by moving a motorized table.

Yes
The device is intended to fragment urinary stones, which is a direct treatment of a medical condition.

No

The device is a lithotripsy system intended to fragment urinary stones, which is a therapeutic function, not a diagnostic one. While it uses imaging (fluoroscopy and ultrasound) for localization, these are for guiding the treatment, not for diagnosing the condition.

No

The device description clearly outlines multiple hardware components including a therapy unit with a shock wave generator, patient table, and control interface master, indicating it is a physical medical device, not software-only.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to fragment urinary stones within the body (in the kidney and ureter). IVD devices are used to examine specimens taken from the body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
  • Device Description: The device description details a system that generates and delivers shock waves to the patient's body. This is a therapeutic intervention, not a diagnostic test performed on a sample.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, reagents, or any of the typical components or processes associated with in vitro diagnostics.

This device is a therapeutic medical device used for lithotripsy, a procedure to break up stones in the urinary tract.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

ELITE conducted the following types of performance testing: Shock Wave Characteristics; Localization Accuracy; Road Testing; and Clinical Performance Testing. In all instances, the EM-9000 met its specifications and functioned as intended. The laboratory and clinical data provide reasonable assurance of the safety and effectiveness of the EM-9000 for the extracorporeal fragmentation of urinary stones in the kidney (renal pelvis and renal calyces) and ureter (upper, middle, and lower ureter).

The shock wave characteristics are reported below in Table-1 by taking the described in the consensus standard IEC 61846 "Ultrasonics - Pressure pulse lithotripters - Characteristics of fields" (1998) into consideration. PVDF film type hydrophones are used in the measurements. The details of the measurements/calculations are given in relevant part of 510(k) application. The results are found similar to the predicate device characteristics.

Pressure at focus is:
EM-9000: 630 bar
Modulith SLX-F2: 210-1500 (1000) bar

Results of performance and compliance testing conducted at manufacturing facility and independent test organizations on EM-9000, indicates conformance to all applicable performance standards.

Comparative performance testing demonstrated the EM-9000 to be substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.

The confirmatory clinical study suggests that treatment of urinary tract stones with the EM-9000 is safe and effective.
A confirmatory clinical study was appropriate because the EM-9000: (1) employs a similar mechanism of action for the generation of shock waves as compared to predicate extracorporeal shock wave lithotripters; and (2) has shock wave characteristics that are within the range of predicate systems.

The clinical data provides reasonable assurance of the safety and effectiveness of the EM-9000 Electromagnetic Lithotripter for the extracorporeal fragmentation of urinary stones in the kidney (renal pelvis and renal calyces) and ureter (upper, middle, and lower ureter).

§ 876.5990 Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripter.

(a)
Identification. An extracorporeal shock wave lithotripter is a device that focuses ultrasonic shock waves into the body to noninvasively fragment urinary calculi within the kidney or ureter. The primary components of the device are a shock wave generator, high voltage generator, control console, imaging/localization system, and patient table. Prior to treatment, the urinary stone is targeted using either an integral or stand-alone localization/imaging system. Shock waves are typically generated using electrostatic spark discharge (spark gap), electromagnetically repelled membranes, or piezoelectric crystal arrays, and focused onto the stone with either a specially designed reflector, dish, or acoustic lens. The shock waves are created under water within the shock wave generator, and are transferred to the patient's body using an appropriate acoustic interface. After the stone has been fragmented by the focused shock waves, the fragments pass out of the body with the patient's urine.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls) (FDA guidance document: “Guidance for the Content of Premarket Notifications (510(k)'s) for Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripters Indicated for the Fragmentation of Kidney and Ureteral Calculi.”)
