## Description of Device:

The Axcel™ Surgical Light is a new product designation intended to identify a family of surgical lights that will use a similar set of design principals as the PrismAlix® (PRX) Series Surgical Light. The primary predicate device focuses on the PRX4000, which is the smaller lighthead within the PRX Series. Additionally, the Axcel light design also uses some design features from the Angenieux AX4 Surgical Light. Comparisons are made between it and these two predicate devices.

#### Intended Use:

The Axcel™ Surgical Lights are intended to be used to provide visible illumination of the surgical area or the patient.

#### Nonclinical Comparisons to Predicate Device

The Axcel™ Surgical Light (subject device) is similar to the predicate device with the following modifications:

- Cosmetic changes to the lighthead, by rounding the overall shape and surfaces for . improved laminar flow characteristics.
- . Use of five (5) optical lens/windows, by adding one in the center of the cross layout design, while the Angenieux AX4 surgical light uses four lenses in a cross layout.
- Each Axcel™ lighthead incorporates a membrane switch panel that has an . ON/OFF switch and illumination level adjustment switches (+ / --) that is ergonomically mounted within the handle (yoke post) of the lighthead assembly.
- The Axcel™ design incorporates the power supply and filter sub-assembly to be . mounted into the suspension tube, rather than being mounted externally on the wall or ceiling.
- . The dimmer control is mounted within the lighthead subassembly, near the membrane switch panel.
- Software is incorporated within the design, which interfaces with input signals sent . from both the dimmer control and ON/OFF lamp membrane switches and provides output signals used by the dimmer control supplying voltage to the lamps (bulbs).

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

- The lighthead optical system uses a modified design from the AX4 lighthead . system, by means of using similar microlens windows, central optical system and a similar four dichroic mirror sub-assembly.
- Axcel™ lights have a fixed focus and stationary light handle, whereas on both ● predicate devices, focusing means are provided.
- The Axcel™ light handle and post location is mounted slightly off-center in one . axis, rather than being mounted in the direct center of the AX4 lighthead. The modified positioning provides an unobstructed space for the center (fifth) optical lens/window. The Axcel light incorporates the same sterilizable light handle as those used on the PRX surgical light.

### Test Data:

The test data supports conformance to:

- UL 2601-1 Standard for Medical Electrical Equipment, Part 1: General Requirements . for Safety
- CSA C22.2 No. 601.1 Medical Electrical Equipment, Part 1: General Requirements for . Safetv
- IEC 60601-2-41 Medical electrical equipment Part 2-41: Particular requirements for . the safety of surgical luminaires and luminaires for diagnostics
- EN 60601-1-2 Medical electrical equipment Part 1-2: General requirements for safety . - Collateral standard: Electromagnetic compatibility - Requirements and tests
- Software used in the Axcel™ Surgical Light was tested according to the appropriate . FDA Software Guidance Documents, per its determination as a Minor Level of Concern.

### Clinical Data:

No clinical data is required for this device classification submission.

### Conclusion:

The modifications incorporated into the Axcel™ Surgical Light designs used those desired design features from both the ALM PrismAlix® (PRX4000 Series) and Angenieux AX4 Surgical Lights. Based upon the information provided herein this 510(k) Premarket Notification, we conclude that the ALM Axcel™ Surgical Light is substantially equivalent to the predicate device(s) and is safe and effective when used as intended.
