## Comparison to Predicate Devices:
The Olympus PK AIM has been compared to predicate Olympus PK AIM and PKS OMNI with respect to intended use, design, and fundamental scientific technology. The comparisons and testing results presented in this 510(k) notification to FDA show this device to be substantially equivalent to predicate devices and raises no new concerns or safety or effectiveness.
Like the predicate PK AIM, the proposed PK AIM is intended for mono polar cutting and coagulation, grasping, bipolar coagulation of selected soft tissues, and like its predicate PKS OMNI the proposed PK AIM is also intended to seal vessels up to and including 3.0 mm in diameter during electro surgery. Both predicate and proposed PK AIM devices are not intended to be used for tubal ligation or female sterilization.
## Product Description
Both predicate and proposed PK AIM devices can be described as 2 in 1 devices with a pencil type handle that combines the technologies of a monopolar pencil and a bipolar forceps. The device has buttons that allow hand activation and a sliding toggle switch to allow the surgeon to switch between a forceps, and a pencil device. Foot pedals connected to the generator are also available to allow for foot pedal activation of the device. The proposed device plugs into the Olympus ESG-400 generator (K141225). The generator and device make up a medical electrical system. The instrument is to be used only with the Olympus ESG-400 Generator.
The proposed device is comprised of a mixture of plastics, metals heatshrink and epoxy. The predicate Olympus PK AIM passed all applicable biocompatibility testing and additional information was provided within in K152219 for any patient contacting materials that contain colorants. The subject Olympus PK AIM and predicate Olympus PK AIM are physically identical - no design or material changes whatsoever.
## Technological Characteristics
The proposed Olympus PK AIM uses monopolar energy in order to cut and bipolar energy in order to coagulate soft tissue in general surgical procedures. For safety and convenience the ESG-400 generator recognizes the proposed Olympus PK AIM when it is connected and limits generator settings to those dedicated for use with the proposed Olympus PK AIM device. These settings are called out in the IFU.
The Olympus PK AIM can be activated using buttons located on the device handle, or via a foot pedals which are sold separately. The hand activation allows the physician to activate either cut or coagulation (coag) mode without taking their eyes off the surgical site. A sliding toggle switch located on the handle allows the user to switch between using the device as a pencil or forceps.

# Material
No material changes were made to the predicate PK AIM cleared under K152219.
## Indications for Use
The PK AIM is intended for mono polar cutting & coagulation, grasping, bipolar coagulation of selected soft tissues and sealing vessels up to and including 3.0 mm in diameter during electro surgery. This device is not intended to be used for tubal ligation or female sterilization.
### Compliance to Voluntary Standards
The design of the proposed device complies with the following standards:
ISO 10993-1. 2009 ISO 10993-5, 2009 ISO 10993-7 2008 ISO 10993-10, 2010 ANSI/AAMI/ISO 11607-1, 2006 ANSI/AAMI/ISO 11135-1, 2007 ISO 14971, 2007 ISO 15223-1; 2012 IEC 60601-1: 2005 IEC 60601-2-2: 2009
### Summary of Sterilization and Shelf Life Discussion
Like the predicate Olympus PK AIM, (K152219), the proposed Olympus PK AIM will be distributed in a sterile state and is intended for single patient use only. The sterilization method used is ethylene oxide and has a shelf life of 1 year.
## Summary of Performance Testing
The predicate PK AIM (K152219) and proposed PK AIM, are identical in every respect. No physical design changes were made that would require the repeat of performance testing already provided in K152219. Bench and animal testing performance tests were conducted to support the additional 3 mm vessel sealing claim which is the subject of this submission. Performance testing provided in this submission will demonstrate that the 3 mm vessel sealing performance of the proposed PK AIM is substantially equivalent to the predicate Gyrus ACMI PKS OMNI, K081766.
The vessel sealing performance of subject PK AIM and the predicate PKS OMNI were compared via ex vivo bench testing, acute animal testing, and chronic animal testing (porcine model). Protocols, reports and test data for this testing are provided in the appendices of Section 15 and 16 and include:
Bench Testing ex vivo, confirmed that both devices:
- Sealed 1.00 mm to 3.49 mm size arteries.
- Burst pressures of sealed arteries were statistically equivalent. ●
{6}------------------------------------------------
- and burst pressure of sealed arteries exceeded 360 mmHg. ●
The Acute GLP Study evaluated thermal spread, qualitative sealing characteristics and provided collection of thermal imaging while sealing vessels with the Olympus PK AIM device in a swine model. The predicate Gyrus ACMI (PKS) OMNI device was used as the Control device. During the acute study, quantities of 11 and 12 blood vessels respectively were sealed by subject PK AIM and predicate PK OMNI. A Histopathology Report is attached to this study.
The Chronic GLP Study in a swine model evaluated thermal spread, qualitative sealing characteristics and provided a collection of thermal imaging while sealing vessels with the proposed Olympus PK AIM device. The predicate Gyrus ACMI (PKS) OMNI device was used as the Control device. The Chronic studies demonstrated that 11 animals survived a minimum of 21-days following the surgical procedure. Their health was deemed acceptable prior-to, during, and following the 21day survival period at which time they were euthanized and grossly examined. A necropsy pathology of post-splenectomy and ovariectomy sealed vessel sites showed no differences between sealing performed by test and control devices.
The test results concluded that the subject PK AIM test article demonstrated similar functionality to the control article (Gyrus ACMI (PKS) OMNI) for sealing arteries, veins and artery vein bundles up to 3mm in diameter.
An Animal Health Report and Pathology Report were attached in the appendices of this report.
#### Substantial Equivalence
The proposed Olympus PK AIM has the same intended use, design, and scientific technology as its predicate Olympus PK AIM device combined into one device. The predicate PK AIM and proposed PK AIM device are both a pencil and a forceps device with a dual cord. The proposed and predicate devices were shown to perform substantially equivalent in bench testing. There were no new issues of safety or effectiveness with the proposed device.
