Intended Use
The Eclipse System is indicated for the treatment of fecal incontinence in adult women. It is intended for prescription use.
Device Story
The Eclipse System is a rectal control system for adult women with fecal incontinence. It consists of a vaginal insert with an inflatable balloon and a hand-held pump with a pressure regulator. The patient inserts the device vaginally; the balloon is inflated to exert posterior pressure against the rectal wall, reducing the rectal lumen and decreasing the frequency of incontinence events. The system includes a sizing kit (reusable sizers) for clinical fitting, a short-term trial insert for evaluation, and a long-term insert for daily use. The patient operates the pump to inflate/deflate the balloon to manage bowel movements. The device is intended for prescription use in a home setting. Clinical benefit is achieved through mechanical compression of the rectum to improve bowel control.
Clinical Evidence
No new clinical data were generated for this 510(k). The clinical performance data submitted for the predicate device (DEN140020) are sufficient to support the safety and effectiveness of the subject device. Bench testing included dimensional/visual inspections, leak testing, cycle testing, inflation/deflation testing, valve-pump attachment testing, tube stretch, base folding, biocompatibility per ISO 10993-1, and validation of high-level disinfection and steam sterilization.
Technological Characteristics
The system comprises silicone vaginal inserts and a pump with a pressure regulator. Materials are identical to the predicate, with additional pigments used for identification. The device is non-powered (mechanical inflation). Sizers are reusable and require high-level disinfection or steam sterilization. Inserts are single-patient use. No software or electronic components are described.
Indications for Use
Indicated for treatment of fecal incontinence in adult women.

#### D. Device Description
#### Eclipse System Components
The Eclipse System includes two main components, an Insert and a Pump. The Insert is used intra-vaginally, is insertable/removable by the patient, and includes a balloon that when inflated, exerts a force posteriorly (trans-vaginally) against the wall in the rectum resulting in a decrease in the lumen of the rectum. The compression of the rectal space results in decreased frequency of fecal incontinence events. The Eclipse System also contains two tools for the fitting process: a Sizing Kit, consisting of Sizers in each available Insert Base size, and a Trial Insert. Each component is described below.
- -Sizing Kit / Sizers: Reusable (multi-patient) Insert Bases (Sizers), intended to aid in selecting appropriate Trial Insert Sizes. Sizers are only used in a clinical setting (<60 minutes) and are not intended to be taken home.
- -Trial Insert (Insert): Single-patient-use vaginal insert intended for short term use (approximately 1 week, but no more than 2 weeks) during the fitting and evaluation process. Multiple Trial Inserts may be attempted to achieve a correct fit. The Trial Inserts are identifiable by their white color.
- Eclipse Insert (Insert): Single-patient-use vaginal insert intended for longer-term use (up to 1 year). The Eclipse Inserts are identifiable by their indigo color.
- -Pump, including Regulator: The pump is used by the patient for inflating and deflating the balloon with a goal of improving control over bowel movements. The Pump includes a replaceable Regulator which regulates the maximum pressure of the Insert's Balloon. Regulators are available for different pressure levels, and can be replaced to adjust the maximum pressure of the Insert's Balloon.
### E. Intended Use/Indications for Use
The Eclipse System is indicated for the treatment of fecal incontinence in adult women. It is intended for prescription use. The indications for use are unchanged from the predicate.
### F. Comparison of Technological Characteristics with the Predicate Device
The Eclipse System has the same fundamental scientific technology as the predicate device and is substantially equivalent to the predicate device with respect to design, materials, and intended use.

Image /page/7/Picture/0 description: The image contains the logo for Pelvalon. The logo consists of a purple crescent shape on the left and the word "Pelvalon" in gray text on the right. The crescent shape is curved and points towards the right. The text is in a sans-serif font and is slightly larger than the crescent shape.
- o Tube Stretch
- Base Folding o
- Basic Function/Performance o
- Biocompatibility Testing per ISO 10993-1
- High Level Disinfection Validation ●
- . Steam Sterilization Validation (as an alternative to high-level disinfection)
Cleaning and Low Level Disinfection validations performed on the predicate device support the cleaning and low level disinfection for the Eclipse Insert. Pump, and Trial Insert that are the subject of this 510(k). No additional cleaning/low level disinfection testing was required to support substantial equivalence.
The clinical performance data submitted in support of the de novo application for the predicate device are sufficient to address safety and effectiveness of the subject device. The modifications to the predicate device that are the subject of this 510(k) application are not significant enough to require clinical performance data to demonstrate substantial equivalence.
The Eclipse System met all specified design, safety, and performance requirements. Collectively the performance data support safety, effectiveness, and substantial equivalence of the Eclipse System to the predicate device.
#### H. Conclusions
The information and data provided in the 510(k) demonstrate that the subject Eclipse System is as safe and effective and substantially equivalent to the predicate Eclipse System.
