Intended Use
The Cochlear Osia System uses bone conduction to transmit sounds to the cochlea (inner ear) with the purpose of enhancing hearing. Osia Implants are single use devices intended for long term implantation under the skin in the mastoid region of either side of the head. They are for professional use only.
Device Story
Active implantable bone conduction hearing system; compensates for conductive/mixed hearing loss or single-sided deafness. System comprises OSI300 implant (receiver/coil and actuator) and external Osia 2(I) sound processor. Processor captures environmental sound; processes digitally; transmits power/data via transcutaneous RF link to implant. Implant converts digital signal to analog; drives actuator to vibrate skull bone; bypasses middle ear to stimulate inner ear. Used in clinical/home settings; operated by patient and audiologist (fitting). OSI300 features rotatable magnet for 1.5T/3T MRI compatibility without removal. Healthcare providers use Osia Fitting Software 2 to configure device to patient needs. Benefits include improved hearing and speech perception; MRI compatibility reduces need for surgical magnet removal.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Substantial equivalence supported by non-clinical bench testing, including functional verification, fixation screw testing, MRI safety, maximum surface temperature, coil robustness, fluid ingress, and environmental conditioning. Validation activities confirmed user needs were met.
Technological Characteristics
Active implantable bone conduction system. OSI300 implant features rotatable magnet for 1.5T/3T MRI compatibility. External sound processor uses digital inductive RF link. Biocompatible materials per ISO 10993-1. Sterilization via ethylene-oxide (ISO 11135). Software-based fitting and smartphone app control. System includes magnet/non-magnetic cassettes for implant.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients 12 years or older with conductive or mixed hearing loss (PTA BC threshold <= 55 dB HL) who benefit from amplification. Bilateral fitting indicated for symmetric conductive/mixed loss (BC threshold difference < 10 dB avg or < 15 dB individual). Indicated for single-sided deafness (SSD) with profound sensorineural loss in one ear and normal hearing in the opposite ear (PTA AC threshold <= 20 dB HL), or for patients indicated for AC CROS hearing aids who cannot or will not use them.

## E. Purpose of Submission
This Traditional 510(k) seeks clearance for an updated Osia System, which includes a new OSI300 Implant, a new Cochlear Magnet Cassette and Non-Magnetic Cassette, and a new Osia 2(I) Sound Processor. Additionally, the updated Osia System includes modifications to existing components (Osia 2 Sound Processor, Osia Fitting Software 2, and Osia Smart App). The previous Osia System, Osia 2 System (predicate), was cleared under K220922 on July 27th, 2022.
## F. Device Description
The Osia System mechanically vibrates the skull bone and subsequently the cochlea to compensate for conductive hearing loss, mixed hearing loss, or single-sided sensorineural deafness (SSD).
The Osia System is made up of several components. The Osia Implant (OSI300) consists of a receiver/coil and an actuator/stimulator (vibrator) which is surgically implanted on the skull bone. The external component of the Osia System is a sound processor, worn off-the-ear, which picks up the sound from the environment, and sends, after processing, the information to the implant via a transcutaneous inductive link. This link is also referred to as radiofrequency (RF) link. Each Osia System is configured to meet an individual's hearing needs, using dedicated fitting software. The Osia System is illustrated in Figure 1 below.
## Figure 1. Osia System, including the OSI300 Implant Osia 2(I) Sound Processor
Image /page/4/Picture/8 description: The image shows a cross-sectional view of a medical implant. The implant consists of several components, including an external device (1), an internal receiver (3), and a connection to the bone (4). The implant is placed beneath the skin (3) and is designed to interface with the bone structure (2). The image provides a detailed view of the implant's placement and its interaction with the surrounding tissues.
In normal operation, the Osia System functions as follows (referring to Figure 1):
- The external sound processor captures and digitally processes sound. 1.
- 2. The sound processor transmits power and digital information to the implant via an RF link.
- The implant electronics convert the digital information into an electric analog signal. 3.
{5}------------------------------------------------
Image /page/5/Picture/0 description: The image contains the logo for Cochlear, a company that specializes in hearing solutions. The logo features three curved shapes nested together, resembling an ear or sound waves, in a golden color. Below the symbol, the company name "Cochlear" is written in a similar golden hue, with the registered trademark symbol to the right. Underneath the name, the tagline "Hear now. And always" is displayed in a smaller font, emphasizing the company's commitment to long-term hearing support.
- 4. This electric analog signal drives the actuator to produce vibrations, which are transmitted to the skull bone through the BI300 Implant (K100360).
The actuator converts the electrical signal into an amplified mechanical stimulation, bypassing the impaired middle ear (origin of the conductive part of the hearing loss) and providing some level of mechanical amplification in order to compensate for the damaged inner ear (sensorineural part of the hearing loss, in case of mixed hearing loss).
The updated Osia System introduces:
- The OSI300 Implant with a rotatable magnet, ●
- The Cochlear Magnet and Non-Magnetic Cassettes for the OSI300 implant ●
- The Osia 2(I) Sound Processor for compatibility with the OSI300 implant, ●
- New dedicated 'Imaging' magnets (denoted as (I) magnets) for the Osia 2(I) Sound Processor,
- New magnet tool for the (I) magnets, ●
- Updates to the cleared Osia Fitting Software 2 to support the OSI300 implant along with ● other improvements, described further below, and
- Minor updates to the Osia Smart App.
## G. Intended Use
The Cochlear Osia System uses bone conduction to transmit sounds to the cochlea (inner ear) with the purpose of enhancing hearing. Osia Implants are single use devices intended for long term implantation under the skin in the mastoid region of either side of the head. They are for professional use only.
## H. Indications for Use
The Osia System is intended for the following patients and indications:
- Patients 12 years of age or older.
- . Patients who have a conductive or mixed hearing loss and still can benefit from sound amplification. The pure tone average (PTA) bone conduction (BC) threshold (measured at 0.5, 1, 2, and 3 kHz) should be better than or equal to 55 dB HL.
- Bilateral fitting of the Osia System is intended for patients having a symmetrically ● conductive or mixed hearing loss. The difference between the left and right sides' BC thresholds should be less than 10 dB on average measured at 0.5, 1, 2, and 3 kHz, or less than 15 dB at individual frequencies.
- Patients who have profound sensorineural hearing loss in one ear and normal hearing in . the opposite ear (i.e., single-sided deafness or "SSD"). The pure tone average air conduction hearing thresholds of the hearing ear should be better than or equal to 20 dB HL (measured at 0.5, 1, 2, and 3 kHz).
- The Osia System for SSD is also indicated for any patient who is indicated for an air-● conduction contralateral routing of signals (AC CROS) hearing aid, but who for some reason cannot or will not use an AC CROS.
- Prior to receiving the device, it is recommended that an individual have experience with ● appropriately fitted air conduction or bone conduction hearing aids.

## I. MR Conditional
The OSI300 implant is designed to allow the patient to be examined by an MRI at 1.5T and at 3T without having the implant magnet removed or required use of an MRI kit.
## J. Technological Characteristics and Comparison to Predicate
Like other active implantable bone conduction hearing systems, the Osia System is comprised of multiple components, including: an implant, sound processor, fitting software, and other cables and accessories. The Osia System is intended to compensate for conductive or mixed hearing loss or single sided deafness by conveying amplified acoustic signals to the cochlea via mechanical vibrations on the skull bone. These vibrations bypass the damaged parts of the outer and/or middle ear to stimulate the inner ear hair cells, allowing patients to clearly hear sounds and speech around them.
Both the updated Osia System and the predicate Osia System are surgically implanted in the mastoid bone, and an external sound processor is held in place on the patient's scalp by magnetic attraction between the implant and sound processor.
The updated Osia System, which includes a new OSI300 Implant and Osia 2(1) Sound Processor, and modifications to the Osia 2 Sound Processor, Osia Fitting Software 2, and Osia Smart App, has the same intended use and the same fundamental operating principles as the predicate Osia 2 System. The updated Osia System introduces the OSI300 Implant and Osia 2(1) Sound Processor to allow for the patient to be examined by an MRI at 1.5T and 3T without having the implant magnet removed or requiring use of an MRI kit.
Table 1 summarizes a comparison of the technological characteristics of the currently available Osia 2 System (predicate device) with the updated Osia System (subject device).
