Operated by surgeons in clinical settings; touch panel allows control of power levels, irrigation flow, and output modes. Peristaltic pump provides sterile fluid to surgical site. Device monitors functional parameters and alerts user to malfunctions via icons on control panel. Ultrasonic power and irrigation are activated simultaneously via foot-pedal. Enables precise bone surgery with reduced trauma compared to traditional mechanical instruments.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Testing confirmed compliance with IEC 60601-1 (safety) and EN 60601-1-2 (EMC) requirements.

#### Intended use/Indications for Use:
Piezosurgery FLEX is an ultrasonic surgical system consisting of handpieces and associated tips for cutting bone, osteotomy, osteoplasty and drilling in variety of surgical procedures, including but not limited to otolaryngological, oral/maxillofacial, hand, foot, neurosurgical, spine, and plastic/reconstructive surgery. It may
also be used with endoscopic visual assistance to perform the above listed procedures.
### Device Description:
Piezosurgery FLEX is a piezoelectric ultrasonic device that uses ultrasonic energy to generate mechanical micro-vibration of tip inserts intended for bone cutting. The device consists of a base control unit with intearated peristaltic pump, a sterilizable handpiece with connecting cord, a range of sterile, single use tip inserts, a torque wrench, a foot-pedal, an irrigation set, and other minor attachments.
The console is equipped with a touch panel that allows the surgeon to control device operation. The control panel also provides monitoring information, by means icons, in case of malfunction of the device. Inside the console are located the ultrasonic generator, the electrical power supply module and the micro-processor electronic board that controls and supervises the functional parameters of the device. The console is connected to mains power by an electrical cord, and includes connectors for the handpiece and for the foot-pedal. The console incorporates a peristaltic pump which provides, through the irrigation tubing set, a sterile fluid supply to the surgical site. Ultrasonic power and irrigation flow to the handpiece are simultaneously activated by pressing the foot-pedal. The handpiece contains a piezoelectric ultrasonic transducer which attaches to the generator (inside the console) by a cable at one end of the handpiece. Tip inserts are attached to the other end of the handpiece.
The touch panel of the console allows the operator to set the treatment parameters, as follows:
- Seven levels of power: .
- Six levels of irrigation: .
- Three ultrasonic output modes; .
- · The pump function.
The Piezosurgery FLEX uses piezoelectric ultrasonic technology to generate mechanical microvibrations of the tip insert connected to the handpiece, the piezoelectric transducer converting the electrical voltage supplied by the ultrasonic generator into mechanical energy that induces vibration of the tip insert at the resonant frequency of the tip insert.
#### Technological characteristics:
The technological characteristics of the Piezosurgery Flex are very similar or identical to the predicate devices. Piezosurgery FLEX offers a simpler, lower cost alternative to the predicate devices, however, having a single peristaltic pump and handpiece instead of the two pumps and handpieces that are included with the predicate
devices. Piezosurgery FLEX also offers users three output modes instead of the four modes available in the
predicate devices. For the user interface, Piezosurgery FLEX has a touch panel, whereas the predicate devices incorporate an LCD touch screen. The operational ultrasonic frequency range has been extended in Piezosurgery FLEX to 24 - 36 kHz, from 24 - 29.5 kHz in one predicate device and approximately 28 kHz in the other predicate device. The footswitch in one predicate device offers a wider range of operational options that in Piezosurgery FLEX.
None of these technological differences between Piezosurgery Flex and the predicate devices has any significant effect on the safety and effectiveness of the subject device.
Non-clinical testing:
{2}------------------------------------------------
Non clinical testing of the device components covered by this 510(k) submission includes:
- · Testing to confirm compliance with the safety requirements of standard IEC 60601-1
- · Testing to confirm compliance with EMC requirements of standard EN 60601-1-2
## Substantial Equivalence
ア
The data presented in this submission demonstrate the similarities in the intended use/indications of use and technology between the Piezosurgery Flex and the referenced predicate devices, and thus supports a finding of substantial equivalence between the subject device and the predicate devices which are already in commercial distribution in the United States.
