Device Story
Surgitron is a compact high-power RF energy generator for radiosurgical procedures; operates via front panel selection of waveforms/power levels; provides feedback via push buttons/lights and digital display; output controlled by foot/hand switches. Uses monopolar and bipolar electrodes to deliver RF energy to tissue. Used in clinical settings by physicians for cutting, coagulation, hemostasis, and non-ablative wrinkle treatment. Device includes self-test/monitoring interlocks to prevent operation during failure. Benefits include precise tissue management and hemorrhage control.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Studies comparing subject device to predicate demonstrate safety and effectiveness for non-ablative treatment of mild to moderate facial wrinkles and rhytids.
Technological Characteristics
High-power RF energy generator; monopolar and bipolar electrode configurations; front panel digital display for power/status; foot/hand switch controls; self-test/monitoring interlocks. No specific materials or software architecture details provided.
Indications for Use
Indicated for non-ablative treatment of mild to moderate facial wrinkles and rhytids in skin phototypes I-IV; also indicated for various surgical cutting, coagulation, hemostasis, and fulguration procedures including snoring, palatal shrinkage, uvulopalatoplasty, myringotomy, epistaxis, turbinate shrinkage, skin incisions, biopsy, and removal of various skin lesions/tumors.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
An electrosurgical cutting and coagulation device and accessories is a device intended to remove tissue and control bleeding by use of high-frequency electrical current.

K 0 8 2 8 3 4
The Ellman Surgitron is a compact source of high power RF energy to be employed for a variety of radiosurgical procedures. This action is achieved by front panel selection of waveforms and power levels. All selections are activated by push buttons with lights that give the operator feedback of operative status.
The power level for each mode is indicated by the front panel digital display, which also identifies the status of self-test and monitoring. This display is interlocked with the controls to prevent operation when fail is displayed. The final output power control is made through foot and/or hand switches. Both monopolar and bipolar electrodes are provided.
The subject device is packaged with the following items:
- o Ellman Surgitron IEC 120 / 4.0 DU Radiofrequency Generator
- o IEC Power Cord
- o Dual Footswitch & Cable
- o IEC Foot controlled Handpiece
- o Bipolar Cable
- o Disposable Neutral Plate
- o Instruction Manual
- o Three Button Fingerswitch Handpiece
### Intended Use [21 CFR 807.92(a)(5)]
The device has the following "Indications For Use":
- o Non-ablative treatment of mild to moderate facial wrinkles and rhytids for skin phototypes I-IV
The device is also indicated for:
- Cutting: snoring, submucosal palatal shrinkage, traditional uvulopalatoplasty (RAUP), myringotomy with effective hemorrhage control, epistaxis treatment, turbinate shrinkage, skin incisions, biopsy, cysts, abscesses, tumors, cosmetic repairs, development of skin flaps, skin tags and blepharoplasty.
