Intended Use

Aktina Thermoplastic Masks are medical devices used for patient positioning and immobilization during external beam radiation therapy procedures. Thermoplastic masks are intended for single patient use for the duration of the treatment.

Device Story

Device consists of low-temperature polycaprolactone thermoplastic sheets mounted on polycarbonate frames; used for patient immobilization during external beam radiation therapy. Material softens when immersed in 70-75°C water; user molds sheet over patient anatomy; material hardens at room temperature to maintain anatomical shape. Mask provides consistent immobilization across multiple treatment sessions. Used in clinical radiation therapy settings; operated by radiation therapy staff. Output is a custom-molded physical immobilization device; aids in precise patient positioning to ensure accurate radiation delivery; benefits patient by minimizing movement during treatment.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical testing performed. Substantial equivalence supported by bench testing, including biocompatibility (ISO 10993-1, -5, -10), rigidity, shrinkage, radiation attenuation, and risk management (ISO 14971) and usability engineering (IEC 62366-1) assessments.

Technological Characteristics

Materials: Polycaprolactone sheet, polycarbonate frame. Principle: Thermoplastic molding via heat (70-75°C). Form factor: Perforated sheets mounted to frames. Connectivity: None. Sterilization: Non-sterile. Software: None.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patient positioning and immobilization during external beam radiation therapy procedures.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

Description This is a Traditional 510(k) for the Aktina Medical Thermoplastic Mask. The low-temperature thermoplastic mask is made of Aquaplast polycaprolactone sheets. When immersed in water heated to 70-75°C [160 to 170°F], the material softens, allowing the user to shape or stretch the mask over the contours of the patient's anatomy while cooling. When the material reaches room temperature, the mask hardens into the anatomical shape. The mask can then be placed over the patient treatment area to consistently immobilize the area from treatment to treatment. Predicate device manufacturers have used polycaprolactone materials for this intended use for over 25 years. The mask also has a polycarbonate frame with holes for mounting to the user's existing patient support hardware. 360 North Route 9W Congers, NY 10920 USA www.aktina.com 888.433.3380 Tel: 845.268.0101 Fax: 845.268.1700 {6}------------------------------------------------ #### 7.
