Intended Use

The Energy generator intended for use in the operating room for general procedures where ESU cutting and coagulation is required. The Energy generator is equipped with monopolar and bipolar outputs.

Device Description

The Energy Generator is a microprocessor controlled, isolated output, high frequency generator designed for use in cutting and coagulation of tissue. The generator has the ability to perform both monopolar cutting and coagulation and bipolar coagulation of tissue in a wide range of surgical applications. The three models ES300, ES200 and ES100 have the same hardware. They have different software on the control board and has different electrosurgical power limit.

AI/ML Overview

This is an electrosurgical generator, not an AI/ML powered device, so many of the requested fields are not applicable.

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance:

Acceptance Criteria (Standard)Reported Device Performance
Electrical Safety (IEC 60601-1)Compliant
Electromagnetic Compatibility (IEC 60601-1-2)Compliant
Performance (IEC 60601-2-2)Compliant
System PerformanceCompliant
Thermal Effects (FDA Guidance for Electrosurgical Devices)Compliant
Software Validation (FDA Guidance for Software in Medical Devices)Compliant

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

Not applicable. This is not an AI/ML powered device that uses a "test set" in the context of data analysis. The testing involved hardware and software validation against established medical device standards.

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

Not applicable. Ground truth, in the context of data for AI/ML, is not relevant for this device. Compliance was assessed against engineering and performance standards by qualified testing personnel and regulatory bodies.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set:

Not applicable. There was no "test set" for adjudication as it's understood in AI/ML studies. Compliance was determined by meeting predefined standards and test protocols.

5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study Was Done:

No. This type of study is typically conducted for diagnostic AI tools involving human interpretation of data. This device is an electrosurgical generator, and such a study is not relevant to its function.

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

Not applicable. This is a hardware device with embedded software. It does not operate as a standalone algorithm in the sense of AI/ML. Its performance is evaluated through its physical and electrical outputs.

7. The Type of Ground Truth Used:

Ground truth for this device is established by:

  • Engineering and Performance Standards: International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) standards (IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-2-2, IEC 60601-1-2) set the objective criteria for electrical safety, electromagnetic compatibility, and specific electrosurgical device performance.
  • FDA Guidance: FDA guidance documents for electrosurgical devices provide criteria for aspects like thermal effects.
  • Software Validation Principles: Ground truth for software validation involves adherence to established software engineering principles and documentation requirements outlined in FDA guidance.

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set:

Not applicable. This is not an AI/ML device that requires a training set of data.

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

Not applicable. As there is no training set of data, no ground truth needs to be established for it.

  • . Desiccate mode: applicable to the coagulation of endoscopic surgery and other fine tissues
  • . Fulgurate mode: applicable to the superficial coagulation of most surgeries and laparoscopic surgeries
  • . Spray mode: applicable to large area of tissue bleeding, and only forming a scab in superficial tissue structure.

Bipolar

  • Precise mode: applicable to neurosurgery, ophthalmology and other microsurgeries
  • Standard mode: applicable to neurosurgery and general surgeries
  • Macro mode: applicable to open and endoscopic surgeries

The monopolar Low pure cut mode, Pure cut mode, Blend mode, Desiccate mode, Fulgurate mode and Spray mode are designed for use with conventional hand switching or foot switching electrosurgical devices. The three bipolar output modes are designed for use with conventional hand switching or foot switching electrosurgical bipolar forceps. When using conventional electrosurgical devices, the user selects the mode and desired power using a touch screen display on the generator.

The monopolar mode requires use of neutral electrode. The Energy Generator can be compatible with neutral electrode based on their output rating with FDA clearance. For

3.8 Determination of substantial equivalence

{10}------------------------------------------------

The subject device is equivalent with respect to the basic system design and function to that of the predicate device. The subject device isn't the implants and high-risk device. And it doesn't have new intended purposes, new medical, new target populations, and new users and so on. What's more, it can't use the medicinal substances or animal tissues. So differences between the predicate and proposed device do not raise new questions of safety or effectiveness. So the proposed device is determined to be substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
