Intended Use
The Arthrex SynergyID Endoscopic Imaging System is intended to be used as an endoscopic video camera in a variety of endoscopic surgical procedures, including but not limited to: orthopedic, laparoscopic, urologic, sinuscopic, and plastic surgical procedures. The device is also intended to be used as an accessory for microscopic surgery. The Arthrex SynergyID Endoscopic Imaging System is indicated for use to provide real time endoscopic visible and near-infrared fluorescence imaging. Upon intravenous administration and use of ICG consistent with its approved label, the system enables surgeons to perform minimally invasive surgery using standard endoscope visible light as well as visualization of vessels, blood flow and related tissue perfusion, and at least one of the major extra-hepatic bile ducts (cystic duct, common bile duct or common hepatic duct), using near-infrared imaging. Fluorescence imaging of biliary ducts with the Arthrex SynergyID Endoscopic Imaging System is intended for use with standard of care white light, and when indicated. intraoperative cholangiography. The device is not intended for standalone use for billary duct visualization.

| Predicate Device | K150956 – Pinpoint Endoscopic Fluorescence Imaging System (Primary Predicate)<br>K153218 – Arthrex UHD4 System |
| Purpose of Submission | This 510(k) premarket notification is submitted to add near-infrared fluorescence<br>imaging, visualization of blood vessels, blood flow, related tissue perfusion and at<br>least one major of the major extra hepatic bile duct indications for use. This 510(k) is<br>also submitted to incorporate an external laser engine light source to provide the NIR<br>excitation light for fluorescence visibility. |
| Device Description | The Arthrex SynergyID Endoscopic Imaging System comprises a non-sterile camera<br>control unit (CCU) console, camera head, and light engine source. The system<br>integrates ultra-high-definition camera technology, LED lighting, and an image<br>management system into a single console with a tablet interface in an identical<br>manner as the Arthrex UHD4 System cleared under K153218.<br><br>The Arthrex SynergyID Endoscopic Imaging System camera control unit interacts with<br>the near-infrared light source to be able to provide near-infrared (NIR) imaging to<br>visualize the presence of Indocyanine Green (ICG).The ICG fluoresces when<br>illuminated through the laparoscope with NIR excitation light from the external laser<br>engine and the fluorescence response is then imaged with the camera, processed and<br>displayed on an Arthrex UHD4 System monitor. |
| Indications for Use | The Arthrex SynergyID Endoscopic Imaging System is intended to be used as an<br>endoscopic video camera in a variety of endoscopic surgical procedures, including but<br>not limited to: orthopedic, laparoscopic, urologic, sinuscopic, and plastic surgical<br>procedures. The device is also intended to be used as an accessory for microscopic<br>surgery.<br><br>The Arthrex SynergyID Endoscopic Imaging System is indicated for use to provide real<br>time endoscopic visible and near-infrared fluorescence imaging. Upon intravenous<br>administration and use of ICG consistent with its approved label, the system enables<br>surgeons to perform minimally invasive surgery using standard endoscope visible<br>light as well as visualization of vessels, blood flow and related tissue perfusion, and at<br>least one of the major extra-hepatic bile ducts (cystic duct, common bile duct or<br>common hepatic duct), using near-infrared imaging. Fluorescence imaging of biliary<br>ducts with the Arthrex SynergyID Endoscopic Imaging System is intended for use with<br>standard of care white light, and when indicated, intraoperative cholangiography. The<br>device is not intended for standalone use for biliary duct visualization. |
| Substantial<br>Equivalence Summary | The SynergyID System shares the same design features, materials, and intended use<br>as the predicate, The Arthrex Synergy UHD4 System, cleared under K153218.<br>Similarly, to the Arthrex Synergy UHD4, The SynergyID Endoscopic Imaging System<br>integrates ultra-high-definition camera technology, LED lighting, and an image<br>management system into a single console with a tablet interface. The SynergyID<br>Endoscopic imaging system also interacts with an optimized camera head,<br>endoscopes, and a flexible 0°- and 90°-degree light guide cable to support near-<br>infrared illumination and imagining. The SynergyID Endoscopic Imaging System-<br>camera control unit (CCU) interacts with the laser light source to provide near-<br>infrared (NIR) imaging. The principle of operation the SynergyID recognizes the near-<br>infrared illumination and imaging is equivalent to predicate, Pinpoint Fluorescence<br>Endoscopic System cleared under K150956. |
| | Accordingly, Arthrex believes that the Arthrex SynergyID Endoscopic Imaging System<br>is substantially equivalent to the original clearance Arthrex Synergy UHD4 cleared<br>under K153218 clearance and to the Pinpoint Endoscopic Fluorescence system<br>cleared under K150956. |
| Conclusion | The proposed Arthrex SynergyID Endoscopic Imaging System is substantially<br>equivalent to the predicate device in which the basic design feature, intended use,<br>principle of operation, major technical characteristics, product performance and<br>functionality are the same as the Arthrex UHD4 System cleared under K153218 and<br>the Pinpoint Endoscopic Fluorescence System cleared under K150956. |
| | The Arthrex SynergyID principle of operation for visualization under white visible<br>light, image management and accessory interaction remains identical as it was<br>originally cleared under K153218. The Arthrex SynergyID incorporates an external<br>engine light source which provides the NIR (near infrared) excitation light to cause<br>the fluorescence illumination. The principle of operation of this external light source<br>is identical to Pinpoint endoscopic fluorescence system video processor illuminator<br>(VIP) cleared under K150956. |
| | The differences between the proposed Arthrex SynergyID Endoscopic Imaging System<br>and the predicate devices listed above are primarily technological features that do<br>not affect the performance, principle of operation or impede the system from<br>executing its intended use. |
| | Based on the indications for use, technological characteristics, and the summary of<br>data submitted, Arthrex Inc. has determined that the proposed device is substantially<br>equivalent to the currently marketed predicate device. |
