Intended Use
The Norwood Abbey Centurion SES Epikeratome is intended for use in the separation of the epithelium from the cornea in preparation for subsequent surgical procedures on the denuded cornea.
Device Story
The Centurion SES Epikeratome is an AC-powered ophthalmic surgical device used to separate the corneal epithelium. It consists of a console, separator drive assembly, suction ring assembly (9.0mm and 10.0mm), and a high-speed oscillating PMMA separator. Operated by a surgeon in a clinical setting, the device uses a foot pedal to control vacuum and drive mechanisms. The suction ring secures the cornea, allowing the oscillating separator to incise the epithelium at a predetermined location and diameter. This process prepares the cornea for subsequent surgical procedures. The device provides a consistent and reproducible method for epithelial removal.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Functional testing demonstrated that the system drives the separator assembly to remove epithelium in a consistent and reproducible manner.
Technological Characteristics
AC-powered; high-speed oscillating separator made of PMMA; suction ring assembly (9.0mm and 10.0mm); console-controlled vacuum and drive mechanism; foot pedal operation.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients requiring corneal epithelial separation in preparation for subsequent surgical procedures on the denuded cornea.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A keratome is an AC-powered or battery-powered device intended to shave tissue from sections of the cornea for a lamellar (partial thickness) transplant.
