Used in endoscopic and open surgical procedures; operated by surgeons. Generator drives transducer to create ultrasonic energy at blade tip; mechanical vibration facilitates tissue cutting and coagulation. Device provides surgical utility similar to electrosurgical systems; benefits include controlled tissue interaction during procedures. ## Clinical Evidence In vitro studies evaluated blade excursion (amplitude) and temperature across power settings and operating conditions. In vivo study in laboratory animals evaluated efficacy, showing performance similar to typical electrosurgical systems. ## Technological Characteristics Ultrasonic surgical system; titanium instrument blades; reusable handpiece with ultrasonic transducer; disposable shears. Complies with IEC 601-1, IEC 601-1-2, CISPR11, and UL2601-1. Sterilization of single-patient-use shears. ## Predicate Devices - Ultracision, Inc.

Class II | ### Predicate Devices Ultracision, Inc. (currently marketed by Ethicon, Inc.) Ultrasonic Scalpel [501(k) Number K895252] Olympus Optical Co. SonoSurg™ System [510(k) Number K972114]. ### Description The Sonic Scalpel™ Ultrasonic Surgical System consists of an Ultrasonic Generator / Co. Unit, a reusable handpiece that contains the ultrasonic transducer, and a family of disposable cutting / coagulation shears. The Sonic Scalpel™ shears are available with a range of shaft lengths, diameters and blade lengths as single-patient-use, sterile instruments. The shears are coupled to the reusable handpiece by means of a collar. The titanium instrument blade tip consists of one fixed blade and one movable blade. The tip may be rotated to facilitate the surgical approach. The shears are designed for cutting, coagulation and blunt dissection. {1}------------------------------------------------ ### Indications The Axva Model 100 Sonic Scalpel™ Ultrasonic Surgical System is indicated for use in endoscopic and open surgical procedures for the cutting and coagulation of soft tissue structures. #### Substantial Equivalence This submission supports the position that the Axya Model 100 Ultrasonic Surgical System is substantially equivalent to a number of previously cleared devices, including the Ultracision. Inc. (currently marketed by Ethicon, Inc.) Ultrasonic Scalpel [501(k) Number K895252] and the Olympus Optical Co. SonoSurg™ System [510(k) Number K9721141. These systems are designed, manufactured and tested to meet the requirements of IEC 601-1, IEC 601-1-2. CISPR11 and UL2601-1. The 510(k) Notice contains summaries of in vitro studies that were conducted to evaluate the shears blade excursion (amplitude) at various power settings and the blade temperature over a range of operating conditions. The data presented demonstrate that the blade amplitude and temperature range of the Axya Model 100 Sonic Scalpel Ultrasonic Surgical System is comparable to those parameters for the predicate Ultracision device. The Notice contains a summary report of an in vivo study that evaluated the efficacy of the Ultrasonic Surgical System in laboratory animals. The results of this testing indicate that the system produces results similar to the performance of typical electrosurgical systems. The single-patient-use shears component of the Ultrasonic Surgical System is provided sterile. Axya Medical. Inc. believes that the information provided establishes that similar legally marketed systems have been used for the same clinical applications as the Axya Model 100 Ultrasonic Surgical System. The materials from which the Axya device is fabricated have an established history of use in medical applications. {2}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/2/Picture/1 description: The image shows a logo for the Department of Health & Human Services.
