The Site~Rite IV is not intended for opthalmic applications.
Device Story
Site~Rite IV is a portable, battery or AC-powered, real-time B-mode ultrasound scanner. It processes signals from proprietary probes (3.5–9.0 MHz) to provide high-resolution imaging up to 18 cm depth. Used at bedside in clinical settings (ICU, ER, OR, cath labs) by clinicians to visualize vascular structures and organs for needle/catheter guidance. Device transforms pulsed echo ultrasound inputs into visual images for real-time clinical decision-making during percutaneous or intraoperative procedures. Benefits include improved accuracy and safety for vascular access and interventional procedures.
Clinical Evidence
No new clinical trials were conducted for this submission. Clinical usefulness for needle placement in vascular and non-vascular applications was established via studies using the predicate Site~Rite 2 device, which utilizes the same transducers and image processing algorithms.
Technological Characteristics
Portable B-mode ultrasound scanner; digital electronics design; proprietary probes (3.5, 5.0, 7.5, 9.0 MHz); imaging depth 0.5–18 cm; battery or AC power; sterile disposable accessories. Complies with FDA guidance for diagnostic ultrasound systems.
Indications for Use
Indicated for diagnostic ultrasound imaging of vascular structures, organs, and body structures, and for ultrasound-guided needle/catheter placement. Applicable to adult and pediatric populations for abdominal, intraoperative, small organ (breast, testes, thyroid), neonatal/adult cephalic, cardiac, transesophageal, and peripheral vascular applications. Not for ophthalmic use.
Regulatory Classification
Identification

#### LEGALLY MARKETED PREDICATE DEVICES A.
The Site~Rite IV Ultrasound Scanner is substantially equivalent to the Site~Rite 3 Ultrasound Scanner (K993624) and the Dymax Site~Rite 11 Ultrasound System (cleared as the Dymax Plus 1 Scanner, K862127).
#### DEVICE DESCRIPTION B.
The Site-Rite IV pulsed echo ultrasound system is a lightweight, lowoutput, portable, real-time, B-mode, ultrasound scanner designed primarily to assist clinicians in gaining vascular access to major veins, arteries and organs. It is a unique scanner that offers high resolution imaging to the depth of 18 cm. Site-Rite is portable and thus easy to use at the bedside and in a variety of clinical settings: intensive care units, emergency rooms, operating rooms, angiography suites, catheterization laboratories, etc.
The Site-Rite IV ultrasound scanner can be operated on battery or AC power. It utilizes only proprietary probes manufactured and currently marketed by Dymax, with frequencies ranging from 3.5 MHz to 9.0 MHz. Image depth depends on the choice of probe and ranges from a minimum of 0.5 cm with the 9.0 MHz probe to a maximum of 18 cm with the 3.5 MHz probe.
The disposable items, supplied in sterile packs, are currently marketed products.
### C. INTENDED USE
The Site~Rite IV ultrasound system with associated probes and accessories provide ultrasound imaging of vascular structures, various organs, and structures of the body. Ultrasound quidance for placement of needles and catheters in these structures or organs may also be performed. The ultrasound guidance may occur either intraoperatively or percutaneously.
{1}------------------------------------------------
The Site~Rite IV is not intended for opthalmic applications.
#### D. SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE SUMMARY
The Site~Rite IV Ultrasound Scanner has identical indications for use as the Site~Rite 3 Ultrasound System.
The technological characteristics are similar to the predicate devices except that the electronics design has been updated from the Site~Rite 3 Ultrasound System. The Site~Rite IV Ultrasound System has been designed for manufacturability and improved reliability. The transducers, however, are unchanged from the currently marketed products.
The differences in technological characteristics do not raise new types of questions of safety and effectiveness. There are standard methods for accessing safety and performance, primarily through the methods spelled out in the FDA quidance. Performance data are presented in the 510(k) and these data demonstrate equivalence.
#### TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS ய்
The primary difference in the Site~Rite IV Ultrasound System and the Site~Rite II Ultrasound System is that the older Site~Rite II has a generator with an analog design, whereas the Site~Rite IV Ultrasound System and the Site~Rite 3 Ultrasound Systems are digital in design.
#### F. TESTING
Testing was carried out to address electrical safety, electromagnetic emissions, and acoustic output. Data from this testing demonstrate equivalence with the predicate devices and meets the recommendations of the FDA document, Information for Manufacturers Seeking Marketing Clearance of Diagnostic Ultrasound Systems and Transducers.
Clinical studies carried out using the Site~Rite 2 device, which uses the same transducers and image processing algorithms, has shown the usefulness of the Site~Rite for needle placement in a number of different vascular and non-vascular applications. These studies are summarized and reports are included in the 510(k).
#### G. CONCLUSIONS
This pre-market submission has demonstrated Substantial Equivalence as defined and understood in the Federal Food Drug and Cosmetic Act and various guidance documents issued by the Center for Devices and Radiological Health.
