    Intended Use
    The ETHICON™ Total Energy System is intended to supply energy to surgical devices. The ETHICON™ Total Energy System is an electrosurgical generator that provides power to monopolar, bipolar, and ultrasonic surgical instruments. It is indicated for surgical procedures requiring cutting or coagulation of soft tissue.
    Device Description
    The subject device, The ETHICON™ Total Energy System, is an electrosurgical generator that integrates Advanced Energy (Advanced Bipolar and Ultrasonic) and Core Monopolar and Bipolar energy modalities into one system, the Ethicon Total Energy System. The subject device consists of two modules: the Communications Module (ETHCM and ETHUSC) and the Energy Module (ETHEM). Atop the Energy Module is the Communications Module and the User Screen. The Communications Module contains the power button and speakers, connects to the User Screen, distributes power to the system, and provides external interfaces for other connectivity to external devices including Ethernet and USB. One or two Energy Modules can be connected to the Communications Module. When two Energy Modules are connected, each Energy Module can independently power any of the energy modalities. This feature allows for simultaneous use of two surgical instruments in one system to support complex surgical procedures where two surgeons are operating on a patient at the same time. The User Screen features a touch-operable graphical user interface (GUI) for system settings adjustment, user profile management, and alarm troubleshooting. The ETHICON™ Total Energy System accessories include a cart for system transport, footswitches (single, double, round), and an output verification key. The cart provides a mobile platform with adjustable shelves and accessory storage. Additionally, the cart has custom features to create stability for the system including cut-outs on the top shelf for holding the rubber feet of a second module layers. Casters provide 360° mobility with locking tabs that lock to prevent unwanted cart movement. Footswitches may be used to control power delivery to connected instruments, enabling surgeons to activate the energy output hands-free. The different footswitches can be used for various energy modalities and instruments. Up to four footswitches can be connected to the Communications Module of the Ethicon Total Energy System at the same time. The footswitches are assigned to the desired instrument port via the User Screen GUI. Output Verification is a service mode of the system used to periodically confirm that the power outputs of each energy modality are within the required specifications. The Energy Output Verification Key is used by biomed/hospital facility servicing personnel to complete this process for annual maintenance on the Energy Module, with on-screen guidance to assist in this process. The ETHICON™ Total Energy System is compatible with Ethicon HARMONIC™, Ethicon ENSEAL™, and Ethicon MEGADYNE™ monopolar and bipolar instruments.

    Intended Use
    The IRIS Thermocoagulator and Digital Colposcope is intended for the destruction of human tissue with high temperatures by tissue contact with an electrically heated probe, and to provide magnified visualization of the tissues of the vagina, cervix and external genitalia in order to aid in selecting areas for biopsy and diagnosing as needed for a colposcopy exam.
    Device Description
    The Liger Medical IRIS Thermocoagulator and Digital Colposcope is a portable thermal coagulator with integral colposcope that provides assistance for clinician examination of the cervix as well as utilizes a heated probe to ablate human tissue. It is specifically designed for use in resource-limited settings. The colposcope and thermal ablation modes can be used separately from each other. The device is a handheld, portable, battery-operated, ablator with an LCD display and optical camera to assist diagnosis and treatment, in a safe, effective, easy to use package with sufficient battery life to sustain work for 4 hours. Thermal coagulation can be used in hospital and non-hospital professional healthcare locations. The IRIS colposcope/thermal ablation device is not intended on into the vaginal canal during colposcopic examination. The camera remains outside the vaginal cavity and functions comparably to a standard non-invasive colposcope in terms of providing magnified visual assistance to the clinician. There is no patient contact during the colposcopic examination. Contact between the clinician and the device is mitigated through good clinical practice of wearing protective gloves, limiting contact to intact skin protected by operating gloves. The thermal ablation probe, which is reusable and provided non-sterile, is designed to perform low-power destruction of human tissue with high temperatures by tissue contact with an electrically heated probe tip. The biocompatibility of the probe materials conforms to all recommended endpoints per FDA's guidance document "Use of International Standard ISO 10993-1, "Biological evaluation of medical devices - Part 1: Evaluation and testing within a risk management process" for limited duration mucosal membrane contact.
