Intended Use

The Active Breathing Coordinator is indicated for use when there is a need to reduce the anatomical movement in the thorax and abdomen caused by breathing and cardian motion. It is intended for breath-hold (BH) during simulation and delivery of External Beam Radiation Therapy (EBRT) using photons, in single or multiple fractions, administered via static and/or dynamic delivery processes, in any and all areas of the body where such treatment is indicated. It also provides electrical prompts and status information for the Elekta Limited Response™ gating interface when automated gating of the linac is used.

Device Story

The Active Breathing Coordinator (ABC) is a flow-meter-based system used during radiation therapy simulation and delivery. It monitors patient lung volume via an in-line transducer and a patient-controlled pneumatic balloon valve. Patients observe their breathing volume on a computer monitor and are coached to hold their breath at a predefined threshold. During the breath-hold, the device provides status signals to the Elekta Limited Response™ gating interface to enable automated radiation delivery from a linear accelerator (linac), or the therapist may manually control the beam. By immobilizing anatomy through breath-hold, the device reduces radiation dose to surrounding healthy tissues (heart, lung) and allows for smaller tumor target margins. It is used in clinical radiation oncology settings by therapists and patients.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Hardware verification and validation were performed on the alternative mouthpiece and filter kit (part 12-210). Biocompatibility testing confirmed suitability for surface contact with skin or mucosal membranes for <24 hours. No clinical data provided.

Technological Characteristics

System includes laptop PC, display monitor, and patient respiratory kit (in-line transducer, pneumatic balloon valve). Mouthpiece/filter kit materials include TPE, polycarbonate, polypropylene, and acrylic. Non-conductive plastic construction. Connectivity via electrical interface to linac gating system. Software-based GUI for volume monitoring. Biocompatible for <24h contact.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients requiring reduced anatomical movement during EBRT for breast, lung, thoracic (esophagus, lymphoma, metastatic), liver, and pancreatic tumors. Facilitates deep inspiration breath-hold (DIBH) for critical organ sparing and tumor target margin reduction. Applicable for linac-based SRS and SRT.

Regulatory Classification

Description This Special 510(k) describes the addition of an alternative mouthpiece and filter kit (Aktina Part Number: 12-210) for the Active Breathing Coordinator (ABC). There is no change to the intended use or indications for use with this modification. The ABC is a flow meter device that allows radiation therapy patients to graphically observe the volume of air that enters and exits their lungs on a computer monitor. The patients are coached prior to the treatment and instructed to hold their breath when the volume of air entering or exiting their lungs reaches a predefined threshold volume. Accurate and reproducible timing of the breath hold period is aided by a patient controlled balloon valve which is connected to the flow meter device. Radiation is only delivered during the breath hold period. Radiation may be delivered by the therapist manually turning the beam on and off, or automatically by using the Elekta Limited Response™ gating interface (FDA 510(k) clearance number K123808, available separately from Elekta, Ltd., Crawley, UK). 360 North Route 9W Congers, NY 10920 USA www.aktina.com 888.433.3380 Tel: 845.268.0101 Fax: 845.268.1700 {4}------------------------------------------------ ## AKTINA MEDICAL #### 5.
