Intended Use

The BRIGHTSTAR Surgical Light is intended for use in surgical and non-surgical applications to provide illumination of the surgical field or the patient. It is capable of being used with a broad patient population as determined appropriate by the caregiver or institution.

Device Description

The light is available in a single, double or 3 light head version. Each model offers the option of wall controls, integrated light controls or a combination of both. The light from a single bulb is distributed off a reflector in a controlled manner to provide a defined pattern. The size of the pattern is adjusted by changing the focal point of the bulb relative to the reflector. The light is comprised of seven main components: Suspension Arm, Extension Arm, Counterbalance Arm, Yoke, Light Housing, Light Core, and Controls. The BRIGHTSTAR uses software to coordinate the wall mounted and light mounted controls.

AI/ML Overview

Based on the provided text, the document is a 510(k) Pre-market Notification for the BRIGHTSTAR Surgical Light, submitted by Hill-Rom, Inc. in 1998. The primary goal of this submission is to demonstrate substantial equivalence to existing predicate devices, rather than establishing de novo performance criteria for a novel device. Therefore, the "acceptance criteria" discussed are largely based on matching or exceeding the performance of the predicate devices. There is no traditional "study that proves the device meets the acceptance criteria" in the sense of a clinical trial or a statistically powered performance study against defined thresholds. Instead, the submission relies on a comparison table and a summary of similarities and differences in design and performance specifications against already cleared devices.

Here's a breakdown of the requested information based on the provided text:


1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

Since this is a 510(k) for a surgical light, the "acceptance criteria" are implied by the performance of the predicate devices. The new device (BRIGHTSTAR) aims to be substantially equivalent or better in key performance metrics.

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

This document does not describe a "test set" in the context of a clinical performance study with human subjects or a large dataset analysis. The comparison is based on the technical specifications of the BRIGHTSTAR surgical light and those of the identified predicate devices (Amsco SQ240 Surgical Light and Berchtold Chromophare). The data provenance is internal Hill-Rom specifications and presumably publicly available specifications or regulatory filings of the predicate devices. It is a retrospective comparison of device specifications, not a prospective study.


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

Not applicable. No "ground truth" establishment by experts for a test set is described. The comparison is based on objective device specifications.


4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

Not applicable. No "adjudication method" for a test set is described, as there is no traditional test set or expert assessment of subjective outcomes.


5. If a Multi Reader Multi Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance

Not applicable. This is a pre-AI era device (1998) and a surgical light, not an image analysis or diagnostic device. There is no mention of AI or human reader improvement studies.


6. If a Standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done

Not applicable. This is a surgical light, not an algorithm.


7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

The "ground truth" here is the established performance and safety characteristics of already legally marketed predicate surgical lights. The BRIGHTSTAR demonstrates substantial equivalence to these established devices through a direct comparison of specifications and features.


8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

Not applicable. This is a physical medical device (surgical light), not a machine learning algorithm requiring a training set.


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

Not applicable. This is a physical medical device (surgical light), not a machine learning algorithm.

{1}------------------------------------------------

Device Description

The light is available in a single, double or 3 light head version. Each model offers the option of wall controls, integrated light controls or a combination of both.

The light from a single bulb is distributed off a reflector in a controlled manner to provide a defined pattern. The size of the pattern is adjusted by changing the focal point of the bulb relative to the reflector.

The light is comprised of seven main components:

  • Suspension Arm (1)
  • (II) Extension Arm
  • Counterbalance Arm (III)
  • (IV) Yoke
  • (V) Light Housing
  • (VI) Light Core
  • (VII) Controls
  • (I) Suspension Arm

The Suspension Arm is attached to the ceiling about a central pivot point. The pivot provides a 360° motion allowing the arm to rotate in a full circle adjacent to the ceiling. Multiple arms can be mounted about the same point to facilitate mounting 1,2 or 3 lights.

  • (II) Extension Arm
    The Extension Arm connects vertically to the Suspension Arm. The length of the Extension Arm can be adjusted to suit the various ceiling heights. It provides the means to control the head clearance between the floor and the underside of the lamp.

  • (III) Counterbalance Arm
    The Counterbalance Arm pivots about the Extension Arm. It provides a radial motion of 105°. The Counterbalance can assume an infinite number of positions and will remain where it is positioned. The stability of the arm is achieved utilizing a spring balance that is concealed within the arm and fastened to a pivot that is off center from the elbow joint.

{2}------------------------------------------------

(IV) Yoke

The Yoke is connected directly to the end of the Counterbalance Arm and is free to rotate 360° in same plane as the arm. The Yoke supports the Light Housing permitting it to rotate freely about the two points of contact. Also located within the Yoke is the Task Light. The Task Light is used for background lighting during procedures when the main surgical light is not in use.

  • (V) Light Housing
    The Light Housing incorporates the optical system that generates the light output. The concentric reflector has individual facets formed into the reflective surface. Each facet has been angled to focus the light toward a common focal point. The Reflector is comprised of two lavers of aluminum with the inner surface being made up of pure aluminum. The highly polished finish is achieved by vacuum metalizing the inner surface.

The lens defuses the light to provide a shadow free, uniform image.

  • (VI) Light Core
    The Light Core is comprised of the handle, light intensity controls, bulb housing and IR filters. The handle is used to articulate the light housing. The light intensity controls are in the handle and permit the intensity of the light to be increased and decreased. The intensity level is indicated via a series of LED indicators that are located on a fascia plate adjacent to the handle. Behind the fascia plate, concealed behind the lens, are the bulbs (the BRIGHTSTAR primary bulb and the secondary back up bulb). The bulb is located behind a series of IR glass filters.

The entire Light Core may be removed without the use of special tools to facilitate changing the bulbs.

(VII) Controls

Controls for the light are provided as a wall mount and handle mount. The Controls provide the ability to increase/decrease the light intensity and turn the task light on/off. The mains power indicator as well as the replace-lamp indicator is also located on the control panel.

{3}------------------------------------------------

The BRIGHTSTAR uses software to coordinate the wall mounted and light mounted controls. This is a feature designed for the convenience of the user and represents a low level of concern should the software malfunction.

Voluntary Standards

The BRIGHTSTAR will comply with the appropriate sections of the following documents:

  • UL 2601-1 (1tt Edition) Medical Electrical Equipment Regulatory Standard ●
  • CSA C22, No. 601.1 Canadian Safety Standard ●
  • IEC 601-1 (Second Edition) Medical Electrical Equipment General . Requirements for Safety
  • IEC 601-1-4, (1" Edition) Programmable Electrical Medical Systems

Intended Use:

The BRIGHTSTAR Surgical Light is intended for use in surgical and nonsurgical applications to provide illumination of the surgical field or the patient. It is capable of being used with a broad patient population as determined appropriate by the caregiver or institution.

Design and Construction:

The BRIGHTSTAR is primarily composed of aluminum and steel in the structural components. Tempered glass is used for the IR filters and Lexano is used for the diffuser.

SUMMARY OF SIMILARITIES AND DIFFERENCES

The design and features offered by the Hill Rom Surgical Light are similar to the design and features of the predicate devices.

Similarities

Shadow Control

Each light is designed to have a single bulb, single reflector. Both the BRIGHTSTAR and the predicate devices will tolerate at least 30-35% of the light source being blocked without casting a significant shadow over the surgical site being lit.

Pattern Adjustment

The BRIGHTSTAR and predicate devices provide the ability to adjust the pattern size. The range of adjustment being approximately 6-12 inches. The light adjustment is achieved by adjusting the focal distance of the bulb to the reflector.

Color Correction

Bulb color temperature for both the BRIGHTSTAR and predicate devices is between 4,000-4.800 K This color temperature has been demonstrated to maintain skin color and integrity. both on the surface and in open wounds.

Light Intensity Adjustment

Light intensity for the BRIGHTSTAR and the predicate devices is adjusted by increasing the driving voltage on the bulb(s) to achieve a corresponding increase/decrease in light output.

Articulation Positioning of the Light

The range of motion offered by the BRIGHTSTAR and the predicate devices is identical. The lamp head itself is connected to this arm indirectly via a connecting arm, which rotates radially through an arc of 180°-210° thus allowing the light to be adjusted to any working height. The light housing is attached to the radial arm by way of a voke, which allows the head to rotate in a circular motion.

Light Output

Light output for the BRIGHTSTAR is 12,000 Ft. Candles. The predicate devices light output ranges from 9,293 to 12,000 Ft. Candles.

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

Light Positioning

The position of the BRIGHTSTAR can be positioned either by using the sterile handle or by using the grab handles located on the outer edge of the light housing which are outside of the sterile field. This is similar to the positioning options offered on the predicate devices.

Configuration

The BRIGHTSTAR is available in either a single or double light head set up. The lights all mount to a common point within the ceiling and have arms of different lengths that pivot about the same point. The predicate devices also offer similar configurations.

Differences

Software Controls

The BRIGHTSTAR uses software to coordinate the wall mounted and light mounted controls. The predicate devices do not utilize software. This is a feature designed for the convenience of the user and represents a low level of concern should the software malfunction.
