Preclinical: Evidence obtained from preclinical simulated use studies demonstrate that the device performs substantially equivalent to the predicate device in relevant aspects associated with usability, tissue effects, and thermal effects. For simulated use testing, three clinically relevant tissue types were evaluated in all applicable modes: porcine muscle, liver, and kidney. The tissue effects testing included quantitative and qualitative assessment.
In accordance with FDA Guidance. Premarket Notification (510(k)) Submissions for Electrosurgical Devices for General Surgery, the thermal damage of the tissue due to the HF current was measured in terms of size (length, width and depth) of the thermal coagulation zone. Furthermore, each test included the minimum, default and maximum intensity settings. All modes were compared to the predicate. Where the minimum or maximum intensity settings of the test and predicate device differed in terms of output wattage by specification the closest applicable settings were chosen.
These comprehensive validation bench tests support equivalence to the predicate device. Testing confirmed that comparable tissue effects could be achieved for applicable modes of operation with three tissue types.
Usability and user interface was also assessed according to the risk management plan. The assessment was based on Olympus predecessor product. Use-related hazardous situations were assessed and risk mitigation measures in terms of usability design for safety were defined. The residual risk was evaluated as acceptable.
