More Information

Not Found

No
The document describes a motorized surgical device for cutting and debriding tissue and bone. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any data-driven decision-making capabilities. The performance studies focus on electrical safety, EMC, sterilization, and mechanical performance (rotation speed and torque).

No
The device is described as a motorized surgical system used for cutting, drilling, debriding, sawing, and shaving tissue or bone, indicating it performs surgical procedures rather than offering therapy.

No

Explanation: The device is described as a "motorized surgical device system" intended for "controlled cutting, drilling, debriding, sawing, and shaving for the ablation, excision, removal, or transection of tissue or bone" during surgical procedures. Its function is to perform surgical interventions, not to diagnose conditions.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "motorized surgical device system" with "system components include a control unit used in conjunction with the High-Speed Micro Motor that houses the high-speed handpieces and DrillCut-X® II Shaver handpieces." This indicates significant hardware components beyond just software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the system is for "controlled cutting, drilling, debriding, sawing, and shaving for the ablation, excision, removal, or transection of tissue or bone during head, neck, ENT, or otoneurological surgical procedures." This describes a surgical tool used directly on the patient's body.
  • Device Description: The description reinforces this by calling it a "motorized surgical device system used for the excision, ablation, removal or transection of bones/tissues during head, neck, ENT, or otoneurological surgical procedures."
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing samples (blood, tissue, etc.) outside of the body to diagnose a condition, monitor treatment, or screen for diseases. IVDs are typically used in laboratories or point-of-care settings for diagnostic purposes.

This device is a surgical instrument used for physical manipulation of tissue and bone during surgery, not for in vitro diagnostic testing.

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

Non-Clinical Performance Data: The device has been tested and passed the electrical safety testing and EMC testing, which is certified to be Class I protection against electrical shock. The UNIDRIVE S III ENT system follows the FDA recognized consensus standards and is tested according to the following standards: IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, ISO 14971, ISO 10993. Cleaning and sterilization validations were conducted for patient-contacting components. The reprocessing data submitted complies with the following standards: ANSI/AAMI ST81:2004/(R) 2010 ANSI/AAMI ST79: 2010/A4:2013 AAMI TIR 12:2010 ANSI/AAMI/ISO 17665-1:2006 ANSI/AAMI/ISO 17665-2:2009 AAMI TIR 39:2009. The following bench testing was performed to ensure that the UNIDRIVE S III ENT system meets its design specification: Inspection of rotation speed and torque. Bench testing demonstrated substantial equivalence to the predicate device.

Clinical Performance Data: Clinical testing was not required to demonstrate the substantial equivalence to the predicate device. Non-clinical bench testing was sufficient to assess safety and effectiveness and to establish the substantial equivalence of the modifications.

Dear Alita McElroy:

We have reviewed vour Section 510/k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmr/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal

| Technological
Characteristics: | The UNIDRIVE S III ENT is a modification of and
substantially equivalent to the UNIDRIVE S III ENT
(K150969) in terms of its indication for use, principle of
operation, patient-contacting materials and reprocessing
methods.
The subject device includes the addition of the DrillCut-X® II-
35 and DrillCut-X® II-35 N Shaver handpieces that have a
maximum rotational speed of 35,000 RPM in comparison with
the shaver handpieces of the predicate device that have a
maximum rotational speed of 12,000 RPM. |
| Non-Clinical
Performance Data: | The device has been tested and passed the electrical safety
testing and EMC testing, which is certified to be Class I
protection against electrical shock.
The UNIDRIVE S III ENT system follows the FDA
recognized consensus standards and is tested according to the
following standards:
• IEC 60601-1
• IEC 60601-1-2
• ISO 14971
• ISO 10993 |
| | |
| | Cleaning and sterilization validations were conducted for
patient-contacting components. The reprocessing data
submitted complies with the following standards:
ANSI/AAMI ST81:2004/(R) 2010 ANSI/AAMI ST79: 2010/A4:2013 AAMI TIR 12:2010 ANSI/AAMI/ISO 17665-1:2006 ANSI/AAMI/ISO 17665-2:2009 AAMI TIR 39:2009 The following bench testing was performed to ensure that the
UNIDRIVE S III ENT system meets its design specification Inspection of rotation speed and torque Bench testing demonstrated substantial equivalence to the
predicate device. |
| Clinical
Performance Data: | Clinical testing was not required to demonstrate the substantial
equivalence to the predicate device. Non-clinical bench testing
was sufficient to assess safety and effectiveness and to
establish the substantial equivalence of the modifications. |
| Substantial
Equivalence: | The conclusions drawn from the nonclinical test such as the
risk evaluation on the modification of the system, biological
evaluation summary, cleaning and sterilization summary
demonstrated that the subject device is as safe and as effective
as the predicate device. Both systems also comply with
identical standards and safety testing, where applicable.
As such, we concluded that the substantial equivalence of the
subject and the predicate device has been met, and the
differences between the subject and predicate do not raise new
questions of safety and effectiveness. |
