Intended Use

KONIX Anti-Fog solution is a sterile, disposable, functional, anti-fog solution. The antifog solution is intended to be used prior to and during endoscopic and laparoscopic procedures to prevent fogging of the scope lens. KONIX Antifog Solution is used to prevent the lenses of the imaging device from fogging due to the difference in body temperature before and during endoscopic and laparoscopic procedures.

Device Description

Konix Anti-Fog Solution is a single-use, sterile, and biocompatible laparoscopic accessory device. The product is released to the market as sterile and disposable with one polyurethane foam pad in a 6 ml polyethylene bottle. Secondary packaging is composed of PET film and Medical Kraft Sealing Paper.

Konix Anti-Fog Solution is intended to be used to prevent the lenses of the imaging device from fogging due to the difference in body temperature before and during endoscopic and laparoscopic procedures.

The mechanism of defogging or anti-fogging action of Konix Anti-Fog Solution, works by physically changing the water droplets that form on the lens surface from round droplets, to a flat transparent sheet of water, a phenomenon known as 'wetting'.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes the Konix Anti-Fog Solution, a device intended to prevent fogging of endoscope and laparoscope lenses. The document is a 510(k) premarket notification summary submitted to the FDA. While it highlights safety and effectiveness, it does not include acceptance criteria or a "study that proves the device meets the acceptance criteria" in the way one might expect for a diagnostic AI/ML device.

Instead, the performance data presented focuses on biocompatibility, sterilization validation, shelf-life, and a general "fog resistance test." The "acceptance criteria" for these tests are implied by "Pass" results against established standards.

Here's an attempt to structure the information based on your request, acknowledging the limitations of the provided text for certain categories:

All of the test studies listed aboved that Konix Anti-Fog Solution did not raise any safety issues and is biocompatible.

B. Sterilization Validation and Shelf Life Study

The product is designed to perform gamma-radiation sterilization prior to place into the market, therefore the following studies should be evaluated by the applicable standards/guidance.

a. Gamma-Radiation Sterilization Validation Study

The gamma-radiation sterilization study was performed per the requirements of the FDA recognized consensus standards listed below.

  • ISO 11137-2:2013 Sterilization of Health Care Products - Radiation - Part 2: Establishing the Sterilization Dose

  • ISO 11737-1:2018 Sterilization of Medical Devices - Microbiological Methods - Part 1:Determination of A Population of Microorganisms on Products

  • ISO 11737-2:2019 Sterilization of Medical Devices - Microbiological Methods - Part 2: Tests of Sterility Performed in The Definition, Validation And Maintenance Of A Sterilization Process

The method used for gamma-radiation validation study was ISO11137-2 Method 1 multiple production batches (7.2), since the product bioburden was less than 1 CFU/sample. The test reports showed that the product can become sterile when the routine sterilization parameter was controlled at the dose of no less than 13,9 kGy, which meets the regulatory requirement of sterile condition (SAL < 10-6).

b. Product Aging Validation Study (Shelf Life Study)

The product aging validation study was performed for 3 years standards "ASTM f1980-16 Standard Guide for Accelerated Aging of Sterile Barrier Systems for Medical Devices" to determine the shelf life of the product, since the product is supplied in the sterile status.

The Aging Validation Study included the following test studies.

Since the shelf life of the product is proposed to be stored for 3 years, the aging validation study is performed which included the following test items.

{7}------------------------------------------------

All of the aging test data showed that the product can be safe and effective during its predetermined shelf life. Hence, the sterile assurance level and the functional specification of the firm's definition and regulatory requirement, the shelf life of the product is 3 years.

C. Product Performance Test:

The test result of the fog resistance test shows that Konix Antifog Solution is effective.

VIII. CONCLUSIONS

Based on the previous data and comparison to the predicate device, Konix Anti Fog Solution is as safe and effective as the predicate device and do not raise any new issues of safety and effectiveness.
