The Sonicision Sterilization Tray is intended to be used to encase and protect reusable battery packs and generators of the Sonicision system during sterilization and storage. The tray containing up to one generator and one battery pack (maximum load) can be used with the following models and pre-set (non-adjustable) cycles. STERRAD® 100S (Standard), STERRAD® NX® (Standard), STERRAD® 100NX® (Standard), STERIS Amsco® V-PRO® 1 (Lumen), STERIS Amsco® V-PRO® 1 Plus (Lumen), STERIS Amsco® V-PRO® maX (Lumen). Maintenance of sterility of the content within the tray is based on demonstrated performance of the sterilization wrap or pouch used to encase the tray.
Device Story
Sonicision Sterilization Tray is a reusable, two-part (lid/base) container designed to hold and protect Sonicision generators and battery packs during sterilization, storage, and transport. Composed of polysulfone with silicone inserts, the tray features latches, handles, and surface perforations to allow sterilant penetration. It does not provide a sterile barrier; it must be wrapped in an FDA-cleared sterilization wrap or pouched in a Tyvek pouch. Used in clinical settings, the tray is operated by healthcare staff to facilitate the decontamination and sterilization of surgical equipment. By securing the generator and battery pack, the tray ensures the integrity of the devices during the sterilization process, ultimately supporting the availability of sterile equipment for surgical procedures.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Substantial equivalence is supported by non-clinical bench testing, including sterilization efficacy (six-log reduction of Geobacillus stearothermophilus), hydrogen peroxide residual testing via UV/VIS spectroscopy, material compatibility (340 reprocessing cycles), biocompatibility (ISO 10993-5/12), and mechanical performance per AAMI ST77:2006.

exposure of the sterilant. Handles on the sides of the base facilitate transfer of the sterilized components, and the contoured inserts secure the contents within the tray.
The Sonicision™ Sterilization Tray does not contain gaskets, filters, or valves to act as a barrier to microorganisms during storage, handling, and transport. The tray containing its intended content (load) must be wrapped with an FDA-cleared STERRAD or STERIS V-PRO-compatible polypropylene sterilization wrap or pouched with an FDA-cleared STERRAD or STERIS V-PRO-compatible Tyvek® pouch (note: the wrap and pouch are not supplied by Covidien) and sterilized as instructed by the labeling.
### Intended Use
The Sonicision Sterilization Tray is intended to be used to encase and protect reusable battery packs and generators of the Sonicision system during sterilization and storage. The tray containing up to one generator and one battery pack (maximum load) can be used with the following models and pre-set (non-adjustable) cycles.
| Model | Cycle |
|-----------------------------|----------|
| STERRAD® 100S | Standard |
| STERRAD® NX® | Standard |
| STERRAD® 100NX® | Standard |
| STERIS Amsco® V-PRO® 1 | Lumen |
| STERIS Amsco® V-PRO® 1 Plus | Lumen |
| STERIS Amsco® V-PRO® maX | Lumen |
Maintenance of sterility of the content within the tray is based on demonstrated performance of the sterilization wrap or pouch used to encase the tray.
#### Technological and Performance Characteristics
The proposed Sonicision tray was found to be similar to the predicate trays in several ways. Three fundamental similarities are identified and discussed below:
- (1) Basic design All trays are reusable accessories designed as two-part (lid/base) systems with latches, handles, perforations, and contoured inserts intended to contain items for sterilization, storage, transportation, aseptic presentation of contents, and return of contaminated items to the decontamination area. Notably other design aspects, such as the general shape, size, weight, and materials, though not identical, are similar.
- (2) Role in the sterile barrier system Neither the proposed tray nor the predicate trays contain gaskets, valves, or filters - they must all be enclosed with a qualified FDAcleared sterilization wrap or pouch to maintain sterility.
- (3) Fundamental technology All trays rely on surface perforations (holes or other openings) to allow the sterilant to penetrate and render its content sterile.
The primary differences between the predicate and proposed trays are variances in shape, size, weight, intended content, and surface perforations. Although a small difference in percent of surface perforations is noted, performance data demonstrate that the difference does not adversely affect safety and effectiveness. A comparison of the proposed device to the predicate devices is provided on the next page.

K 131170 510(k) Summary
#### Non-Clinical Performance Studies
Objective test evidence supporting sterilization efficacy, hydrogen peroxide residuals, material compatibility, biocompatibility, and mechanical performance were provided in the submission. A brief description of all tests used to support the conclusion of substantial equivalence with the predicate devices is provided as follows:
Sterilization efficacy: Sonicision Trays containing the intended maximum load (one reusable battery pack and one reusable generator) were inoculated with geobacillus stearothermophilus. The biological indictor containing the indicator organism was placed in areas of the battery pack, generator, and sterilization trav determined to be the most difficult (worstcase) for the sterilant to penetrate. Following inoculation, the sterilization trays were either wrapped with an FDA-cleared STERRAD or STERIS V-PRO-compatible polypropylene wrap or enclosed in an FDA-cleared STERRAD or STERIS V-PRO-compatible Tyvek® Pouch. The loaded, inoculated, and wrapped or pouched trays were then exposed to the Standard cycles of the STERRAD® NX® and 100NX® systems, or the Lumen cycle of the STERIS Amsco® V-PRO® system. The results show that the indicated STERRAD and STERIS "half cycles" provided a sixlog reduction of the indicator organism.
Sterilant Residuals: Residuals testing by ultraviolet/visible (UV/VIS) spectroscopy compared the measured results of the Sonicision tray's load with those obtained for a reference predicate tray's load. The study consisted of three runs of loaded (one battery pack and one generator), wrapped, or pouched Sonicision trays placed in STERRAD or STERIS systems. Testing of the reference predicate tray consisted of at least one run of loaded placed in STERRAD or STERIS systems. The products were exposed to Standard cycles of each STERRAD NX® and 100NX®, and Lumen cycle of the STERIS Amsco V-PRO® model. The results show that the Sonicision Sterilization Tray permits adequate dissipation of hydrogen peroxide on the load when compared to the predicate devices used in the study.
Use Life (Material Compatibility): Life testing required all key functional/performance specifications of the tray to be evaluated after being subjected to complete reprocessing cycles using a worst-case methodology. The worst-case sterilization systems and cycles chosen for testing were the STERRAD 100NX with Standard cycle, and the STERIS V-Pro with Lumen cycle. The protocol required the tray to be assembled, cleaned, disinfected, dried and sterilized repeatedly (340 cycles) using the methods identified in the labeling. The results show the tray meets its performance specifications when reprocessed repeatedly in accordance with the labeling.
Biocompatibility: Biocompatibility testing was performed using a worst-case methodology by exposing the Sonicision Sterilization Tray to two full cycles (as indicated) of the STERRAD and STERIS systems. Test samples were prepared in accordance with ISO 10993-12:2007, Part 12: Sample Preparation and Reference Materials. All biocompatibility assays were performed on neat extracts. A quantitative assessment was made in accordance with applicable requirements of ISO 10993-5:2009, Part 5: Tests for In Vitro Cytotoxicity. The results show that the Sonicision Sterilization Tray passes all applicable biocompatibility requirements and is, therefore, considered non-cytotoxic following exposure to the intended sterilization systems.
Mechanical/Bench: The Sonicision Sterilization Tray was evaluated in accordance with applicable clauses/criteria specified in AAMI ST77:2006. The results show that all requirements were met.
