Intended Use
The device absorbs and diffuses the light transmitted through the cable in order to prevent patient burns and igniting flammable items in the surgical suite.
Device Story
CableCap attaches to the distal end of high-intensity fiberoptic surgical light cables. It functions as a passive optical accessory to absorb and diffuse transmitted light, preventing thermal injury to patients and ignition of flammable materials in the surgical environment. Used by surgical staff during minimally invasive procedures. The device does not diagnose or treat patients directly; it serves as a safety barrier to mitigate thermal risks associated with high-intensity light sources. It is designed for use with multiple light sources and intensities.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Testing performed by an ISO/IEC 17025:2005 compliant laboratory. Thermal safety was evaluated by simulating contact with patient skin for 60 minutes (double the expected 30-minute exposure). Results showed a maximum device temperature of 95 °F, confirming safety for clinical use.
Technological Characteristics
Constructed from biocompatible plastics. Passive optical accessory; no energy source. Attaches to distal end of fiberoptic light cables to attenuate and diffuse light. Non-autoclave-able (disposable).
Indications for Use
Indicated for use in a surgical suite to prevent patient burns and ignition of flammable items by absorbing and diffusing light transmitted through high-intensity surgical light cables.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A surgical lamp (including a fixture) is a device intended to be used to provide visible illumination of the surgical field or the patient.
Special Controls
*Classification.* Class II (special controls). The device, when it is an operating room lamp, a surgical instrument light, a surgical floor standing light, an endoscopic surgical light, a surgical light connector, a ceiling mounted surgical light, a surgical light carrier, surgical light accessories, a surgical lamp, a remote illuminator, or an incandescent surgical lamp, is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 878.9.

#### Device Description
The CableCap device attaches to the distal end of high intensity light cables. The device absorbs and diffuses the light transmitted through the cable in order to prevent patient burns and igniting flammable items in the surgical suite.
There are three separate models made for the three types of light cables:

#### Intended Use of the Device
The device absorbs and diffuses the light transmitted through the cable in order to prevent patient burns and igniting flammable items in the surgical suite.
#### Predicate Device
SensorMed Reusable CableCap device (K101496)
#### Technology Comparison
{1}------------------------------------------------
Both devices are constructed from biocompatible plastics. Both are accessories to hight cables. Both devices attach to the distal end of light cables and modify the outgoing light stream to benefit minimally invasive surgical procedures. Please see the table below for a device comparison table.
| | Reusable<br>CableCap | Disposable<br>CableCap |
|-------------------------------------------------------------|----------------------|------------------------|
| Attenuates light from a medical light box | X | X |
| Diffuses light in multiple directions | X | X |
| Is manufactured from a combination of biocompatible plastic | X | X |
| Is autoclave-able | X | no |
| Improves surgical procedure for patient | X | X |
| Does not directly treat or diagnose patient | X | X |
| Works with multiple light sources and different intensities | X | X |
#### Performance Testing
Bench-top physical testing was performed by Materials, Engineering, and Testing Corp. located in Oak Ridge, TN. Their Accreditation number is 59214 and they are ISO/IEC 17025:2005 compliant. As an extreme scenario, we assumed that the device might remain in contact with a patient's skin for 30 minutes. As an extra precaution, we doubled this time to 60 minutes for test runs. As indicated in the report included in the testing section, the maximum temperature for the device was only 95 °F, which is still well below the standard.
Therefore, SensorMed is confident that the device temperature will not be a concern even if used for extended periods of time.
#### Conclusion
Verification and validation activities were conducted to establish the performance and safety characteristics of the CableCap. The results of these activities demonstrate that the CableCap is safe and effective when used in accordance with its intended use and labeling.
Therefore, CableCap is considered substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
