Intended Use

The device has the following "Indications For Use"

  • Non-ablative treatment of mild to moderate facial wrinkles and rhytides for skin phototypes . I-IV
Device Description

Accessory handpiece electrode is intended for use with the Ellman Surgitron IEC120 / 4.0 Dual Radio-Frequency generator. The device is considered as an accessory to the RF generator. The generator has been cleared by the FDA under 510(k) K082834 Ellman International Non-Ablative Technique for Surgitron IEC.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes a 510(k) submission for a "Non-Ablative Wrinkle Treatment Handpiece," specifically for a change in cleaning/disinfection methods. It does not contain information about clinical studies evaluating the device's performance in treating wrinkles or rhytides, nor does it define performance-based acceptance criteria for such a clinical application.

The sole "study" mentioned is related to the cleaning and disinfection methods of the device:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance:

Acceptance Criteria (for Cleaning/Disinfection)Reported Device Performance
Adequate log reduction of inoculated challenge organisms after disinfection.Successfully achieved "adequate log reduction of inoculated challenge organisms" on test devices.

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance:

  • Sample Size: Not explicitly stated in the provided text for the disinfection study. The text mentions "test devices" (plural) but does not give a specific number.
  • Data Provenance: The study was "successfully executed test protocol as part of this submission" by "Ellman International" and reported by "SGS Protocol # 09A0908673 and demonstrated in SGS Report# 09A0908675." This suggests it was an in-house or contracted laboratory study, likely retrospective to the submission date. The country of origin of the data is not specified, but Ellman International Inc. is located in Oceanside, NY, USA.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications:

  • Not applicable. The study focuses on microbiological efficacy of disinfection, not clinical outcomes requiring expert interpretation. The "ground truth" here would be the measured reduction of microbial load.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set:

  • Not applicable as this was a laboratory study of disinfection efficacy; no human subjective assessment for ground truth was involved.

5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study was done:

  • No. This submission is for a change in cleaning/disinfection methods for an accessory handpiece. No MRMC study was conducted or mentioned for the device's primary clinical indication (wrinkle treatment). The document explicitly states: "As there are no technological, structural, design or intended use changes for the subject device, Ellman International believes that no further data or clinical study is required to support the position that the device is safe and effective to use with the changes delineated in the instructions for use."

6. If a Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:

  • Not applicable. This device is a physical handpiece and not an algorithm. The disinfection study assessed the physical and chemical process.

7. Type of Ground Truth Used:

  • For the disinfection study: "Measured reduction of inoculated challenge organisms." This is an objective, quantitative laboratory measurement.

8. Sample Size for the Training Set:

  • Not applicable. This submission is about a change to existing instructions for use for a medical device accessory, not the development of a predictive model or algorithm, so there is no "training set."

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set was Established:

  • Not applicable for the reasons stated above.

{1}------------------------------------------------

The purpose of this submission is to have the subject device cleared for the following change in Cleaning / Disinfection methods as per the Instructions for Use:

Method:

The Electrode Tip shall be cleaned and disinfected pre and post contact with the patient with an over the counter disinfectant wipe moistened with a full spectrum disinfectant containing a solution of Alkyl dimethyl benzyl ammonium chlorides and Alkyl dimethyl ethylbenzyl ammonium chlorides. The device is to remain wetted by the disinfectant solution for a minimum of 10 (ten) minutes.

Ellman International has presented a successfully executed test protocol as part of this submission to demonstrate that the methods described above achieve an adequate log reduction of inoculated challenge organisms on the test devices.

Ellman International has shown that the cleaning and disifection method described above is similar to the cleaning and disinfection method provided with ALMA LASERS ACCENT as cleared by K070004 and ALMA LASERS FAMILY OF ACCENT RF SYSTEMS as cleared by K072699.

Further to this, Ellman International has presented substantial evidence to support the claims made in method above to provide an effective alternate cleaning and disinfection instruction to the existing instructions for use.

The subject device is packaged with the following items:

  • IEC 3 Button Reusable Fingerswitch Handpiece ●
  • . Pelleve Reusable Electrode

Intended Use [21 CFR 807.92(a)(5)]

The device has the following "Indications For Use"

  • Non-ablative treatment of mild to moderate facial wrinkles and rhytides for skin phototypes . I-IV

Technological Characteristics [21 CFR 807.92(a)(6)]

Ellman International maintains that the subject device is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices in that they all are similar in technology, function, intended use and method of cleaning and disinfection.
