No
The description focuses on the mechanical and electrical aspects of ultrasonic technology for bone cutting and drilling, controlled by a microprocessor. There is no mention of AI, ML, or any learning or adaptive capabilities. The software is described as "moderate level of concern" and validated according to standard software guidance, not AI/ML specific guidance.
Yes
The device is used for surgical procedures like osteotomy, osteoplasty, and drilling for cutting and reshaping bone and soft tissue, which are therapeutic interventions.
No
Explanation: The device description states its purpose is for "cutting bone, osteotomy, osteoplasty and drilling in a variety of surgical procedures," indicating it is used for surgical intervention rather than diagnosis.
No
The device description clearly outlines multiple hardware components including a console, handpiece, tips, torque wrench, footswitch, and irrigation set. While it contains software, it is an integral part of a larger hardware system.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes a surgical system for cutting, shaping, and drilling bone and soft tissue during surgical procedures. This is a therapeutic and surgical function, not a diagnostic one.
- Device Description: The description details a system that generates ultrasonic vibrations to physically interact with tissue. This is consistent with a surgical tool, not a device used to examine specimens in vitro (outside the body).
- No mention of analyzing biological samples: IVD devices are designed to examine specimens like blood, urine, tissue, etc., to provide information about a patient's health. This device does not perform any such analysis.
Therefore, the Ultrasonic System described is a surgical device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Device Description
Ultrasonic Surgical System consists of a console (control unit) with an integrated peristaltic pump, a handpiece with a connecting cord, a range of tip inserts, a torque wrench, a footswitch, and an irrigation set (liquid-flow tube and liquid-flow sleeve).
The console has a touch panel that allows the surgeon to control device operation. The console activates and controls the ultrasound vibration, controls irrigation flow, and displays system condition. Inside the console are located the ultrasonic generator, the electrical power supply module, and the micro-processor electronic board that controls and supervises the functional parameters of the device.
The console is connected to the main power by an electrical cord. It includes connectors for the handpiece and for the footswitch. The console incorporates a peristaltic pump which provides, through the irrigation tubing set, a sterile fluid supply to the surgical site. Ultrasonic power and irrigation flow to the handpiece are activated by pressing the footswitch. The handpiece contains a piezoelectric ultrasonic transducer which attaches to the generator (inside the console) by a cable at one end of the handpiece. Tip inserts are attached to the other end of the handpiece.
Ultrasonic Surgical System uses ultrasonic technology to generate mechanical microvibrations of the tip insert connected to the handpiece, the piezoelectric transducer converting the electrical voltage supplied by the ultrasonic generator into mechanical energy that induces vibration of the tip insert at the resonant frequency of the tip insert.
The tips are used to fragment and reshape bone and soft tissue through longitudinal and (for bone drilling) rotational vibration at high frequency and small amplitude, while keeping the soft tissues with elastic properties free of damage.
Ultrasonic Surgical System comes with separate handpieces for Ultrasonic Surgical Bone Cutting and Ultrasonic Surgical Bone Drilling.
The handpieces are reprocessed through cleaning and disinfection before each use. The ultrasonic tips, irrigation tubing, and water injection sleeves are provided sterile for single use.

- Risk Management ISO 14971:2007... Medical Device Application of Risk ● Management to Medical Devices
-
- Patient-Contacting Materials... Ultrasonic Surgical System components that come into direct contact with patients during surgical procedures include the ultrasonic surgical tips. According to ISO 10993-1, these components are classified as "external communicating devices," as they get in contact with "tissue/bone" for a duration less than 24 hours. The cutting tips are made of Titanium Alloy TC4.
The other system components that can have indirect contact with the surface of patient's body during surgery are water injection sleeves and irrigation tubing, and the duration of their contact is also less than 24 hours. The sleeves and tubing are made of PTFE and PVC, respectively.
As shown in "Performance Testing" above, biocompatibility studies have been conducted on the tips, sleeves, and tubing, and test results showed that all materials are biocompatible.
-
- Software Verification and Validation... Software verification and validation testing were conducted in line with the requirements of FDA Guidance "Guidance for the Content of Premarket Submissions for Software Contained in Medical Devices" (2005). The software for this device was considered as a "moderate level of concern" and software verification and validation reports have been included in this submission.
-
- Substantial Equivalence... Many of the features and technical characteristics of Ultrasonic Surgical System (subject device) are identical to those of the predicate device, and where there are differences, such differences do not have an impact on the safety or effectiveness of the subject device.
Ultrasonic Surgical System successfully followed the pathway to Substantial Equivalence in the FDA guidance document, "The 510(k) Program: Evaluating Substantial Equivalence in Premarket Notifications" (2014). The steps are summarized below:
- The predicate is legally marketed and was found substantially equivalent through 510(k) premarket submission.
- . The subject and predicate device have the same intended use.
- . Technological differences between the subject and predicate were evaluated; none of the differences raised different issues of safety and effectiveness.
- . The following methods for evaluation of the effects of different characteristics on safety and effectiveness were deemed acceptable-electrical safety, EMC, biocompatibility, sterilization, package integrity, shelf life, usability
10
engineering, and ultrasonic surgical systems performance testing. All tests were conducted to FDA-recognized standards.
- . Data from these tests demonstrated equivalence and support the indications for use.
In conclusion, all necessary testing has been performed and the results support the conclusion that Ultrasonic Surgical System is substantially equivalent to the legally marketed predicate based on both (a) comparison of intended use, materials, technology, and design and (b) testing to FDA-recognized standards, and the device thus does not raise any concerns of safety or effectiveness.
Based on the information contained within this submission, it is concluded that Ultrasonic Surgical System is substantially equivalent to the identified predicate device and warrants clearance for marketing activities.
