Intended Use

Intended for use in the cutting of soft tissue using radiofrequency current, the coagulation (hemostasis, cauterization) of soft tissue using microwave energy, and the delivery and injection of solutions for endoscopic surgical procedures within the gastrointestinal tract.

Device Story

Speedboat Flush SB1 is an endoscopic electrosurgical instrument used with the Creo Medical Electrosurgical Generator. It enables cutting of mucosa, sub-mucosa, and muscle via bipolar radiofrequency (RF) energy (400 kHz) and thermal coagulation of tissue/vessels via microwave energy (5.8 GHz). The device features a distal tip with a gold-metallized ceramic antenna and a fluid lumen for saline injection. Operated by a physician during endoscopic procedures, the device connects to the generator via an interface cable and footswitch. The generator controls energy delivery (voltage, power, current, duty cycle, duration) to ensure only one energy type is active at a time. The device provides a constant stream of saline for injection, replacing the retractable needle mechanism of the predicate. By integrating cutting, coagulation, and injection into a single tool, it facilitates endoscopic surgery, potentially reducing procedure time and instrument exchanges.

K230328 Page 2 of 6 #### SYSTEM DESCRIPTION The Creo Medical Electrosurgical System with Speedboat surgical instrument comprises: - Electrosurgical Generator (7-EMR-050) - . Footswitch (2-EMR-032) - . Interface Cable Procedure Pack (cable with sterile sheath) (7-RS2-210) - Speedboat RS2 instrument (7-RS2-001) - . Speedboat RS2 8 Fr instrument (7-RS2-003) - . Speedboat SB1 instrument (7-RS2-001) The Electrosurgical Generator is deliver bipolar radiofrequency (RF) energy and microwave energy for the purpose of cutting and coagulating tissue. The Electrosurgical Generator output is actuated via a two-pedal Footswitch. One pedal activates the bipolar RF energy output for cut; the other pedal activates the microwave energy output for coagulation. The Electrosurgical Generator incorporates proprietary software developed by Creo Medical for generating and controlling the two energies delivered. The Electrosurgical Generator and Footswitch are non-sterile and reusable. The Interface Cable connects electrosurgical instruments to the Electrosurgical Generator and is for single-use and is supplied with a sterile sheath that is fitted over its distal end during connection to the surgical accessory. Speedboat is an electrosurgical instrument for use with the Creo Medical Electrosurgical Generator only. Speedboat instrument is for endoscopic use and provides cutting, coagulation and injection of fluids incorporated in a single device. Speedboat Instrument is for single-use only and is provided sterile via EO sterilization. Speedboat SB1 instrument is a line addition to the system, designed to be used in endoscopes with a minimum working channel of 2.8 mm. #### INDICATIONS FOR USE STATEMENT Intended for use in the cutting of soft tissue using radiofrequency current, the coagulation (hemostasis, cauterization) of soft tissue using microwave energy, and the delivery and injection of solutions for endoscopic surgical procedures within the gastrointestinal tract. {6}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/6/Picture/0 description: The image shows the logo for Creo Medical. The logo consists of a blue geometric shape on the left and the words "CREO MEDICAL" in blue on the right. The geometric shape is made up of two triangles that are arranged to form a square. K230328 Page 3 of 6 #### TECHNOLOGICAL AND PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS The Electrosurgical Generator comprises two distinct energy sources for the independent generation of bipolar radiofrequency (RF) current at 400 kHz and microwave current at 5.8 GHz. Both energy sources are delivered through the same output coaxial connector. These generator outputs are controlled in terms of voltage, power, current, duty cycle, and duration by means of widely used and long-established design and engineering techniques. Via these controls and system design, only one energy source can be delivered to the output coaxial connector at any one time. Speedboat SB1 instrument is 2.3 m long and used through the working channel of a compatible endoscope. The distal tip comprises: - . a gold-metallized ceramic bipolar electrode assembly (Antenna) for delivery of cutting and coagulation energies; - . a stainless-steel rounded contour component (Hull) mounted to the Antenna; - . a fluid lumen for delivery and injection of fluids. The proximal handle of Speedboat SB1 incorporates a luer-lock port for connection of a user-supplied syringe containing injection solution and a coaxial connector for connection to the Interface Cable. The Interface Cable has push-fit latching connectors on each end designed to deliver energy at both RF and microwave frequencies. The subject and predicate devices use the same electrosurgical generator, footswitch, and interface cable. They are composed of the same technological components with the same principles of operation which are: - . Cutting of mucosa, sub-mucosa, muscle using bipolar RF energy, - . Thermal coagulation (cauterization) of mucosa and/or sub-mucosa, muscle, vascular and arterial structures using microwave energy, - . Injection of a fluid into the sub-mucosa using the fluid injection function located at the distal tip of the device. {7}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/7/Picture/0 description: The image shows the logo for Creo Medical. The logo consists of a blue geometric shape on the left and the words "CREO MEDICAL" on the right. The geometric shape is made up of two triangles that are joined together. The words "CREO MEDICAL" are written in a sans-serif font, with "CREO" on top of "MEDICAL". # COMPARISON OF THE TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS WITH THE PREDICATE DEVICE The following technological differences between the subject and predicate device were compared: | Difference | Equivalence assessment | |-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Fluid injection function<br>The subject device incorporates a fluid lumen<br>while the predicate incorporates an extendable<br>and retractable needle for fluid injection. | The subject device was tested to be able to<br>produce a jet (constant stream) of saline from<br>the device tip at minimum pressure which has<br>been determined to be equivalent to the use of<br>a needle for the intended device operation. | | Shaft diameter<br>outer shaft diameter is 2.35 mm compared to<br>3.2 mm for predicate Speedboat RS2. It is to be<br>compatible with an endoscope of minimum<br>working channel 2.8 mm instead of minimum<br>3.7 mm. | The subject device performances were<br>evaluated via the bench tests listed below and<br>has been determined to be substantially<br>equivalent to the predicate device. | | Distal tip dimensions<br>The antenna of the subject device is slightly<br>longer and thinner compared to the predicate<br>device. However, the shape of the antenna and<br>distance between the electrode has not<br>changed. | The subject device lifetime cut and coagulation<br>performance was evaluated and demonstrated<br>to be substantially equivalent to the predicate<br>device. | | Handle design<br>The handle of the subject device has had an<br>overall redesign compared to the predicate<br>device. As the device does not incorporate a<br>needle, the slider to actuate the needle has<br>been removed. | The function of the handle has not changed<br>and incorporate the same connections for RF<br>and microwave energy output (QMA<br>connector) and for fluid injection (luer lock<br>connector).<br>The handle was evaluated via the bench tests<br>listed below and has been determined to be<br>substantially equivalent to the predicate<br>device. | The system meets all design specifications, risk mitigation requirements and applicable medical device standard requirements.
