#### Description of the Device

The SurgiMax / SurgiMax Plus is a compact source of high radiofrequency energy employed for a variety of procedures. This action is achieved by front panel selection of waveforms and power levels. The subject device can be used with monopolar or bipolar devices. The energy is used for cutting, coagulation, and hemostasis.

The SurgiMax / SurgiMax Plus Electrosurgery Generator is a compact source of high radio-frequency RF energy to be employed for a variety of radiosurgery procedures. This action is achieved by front panel selection of waveforms and power level. All selection is effected through push buttons and lamps, which give the operator feedback of status.

Power level for each mode is indicated by front panel digital displays; which also show the status of self-test and monitoring. The display is interlocked with 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 offered.

This device is designed to comply with international safety standards including applicable IEC series electrical safety standards.

The power output in the CW (Cut) mode is 120 watts into (500 ohms) a matched load. The output frequency is maintained at 4.0 MHz +/- 400Hz over all service and loading conditions including short and open for monopolar mode.

Three output waveforms are provided:

CW CUT - Continuous wave output with average power equal to the maximum with no deliberate modulation.

CUT / COAG – Deeply modulated envelope with average to peak power ratio approximately 50%. Modulation occurring at 75 Hz rate.

HEMO - Deeply modulated wave with average to peak ratio approximately 50%. Modulation occurring at 75 Hz rate.

#### Technological Characteristics [21 CFR 807.92(a)(6)]

Elliquence LLC believes that the subject device has the identical technological characteristics of the predicate device. This include outputs, performance, software, electronics, and indications for use. We believe the subject device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.

#### Performance Data [21 CFR 807.92(b)(1)]

The Ellman SurgiMax / SurgiMax Plus complies with IEC 60601-2-2. Non-clinical testing and comparison between the subject device and predicate device demonstrate equivalent performance.

#### Predicate Device [21 CFR 807.92(a)(3)]

The predicate devices are listed as follows:

{4}------------------------------------------------

#### Ellman Surgimax - K061174 .

The subject device and predicate device have identical indications for use, waveforms, functionality with bipolar and monopolar devices, frequency, maximum power, weight, and power adjustment. The electronics and software in the subject device is the same identical electronics and software in the predicate device. The outputs and performance characteristics are identical as the electronics and software have not changed.

The differences are:

- . Cosmetic differences to the outer case and faceplate
- . Difference in product name (Elliquence Surgimax or Elliquence Surgimax Plus versus Ellman Surgimax)
- Labeling changed to reflect the company name and the image to reflect the cosmetic differences. .

These differences do not affect safety or performance as they are cosmetic or aesthetic in nature.

#### Conclusion [21 CFR 807.92(b)(3)]

We believe the differences between the subject device and predicate device are minor and conclude that the subject devices are as safe and effective as the predicate devices.
