You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database available at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/ofdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading. If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. {1}------------------------------------------------ Additional information about changes that may require a new premarket notification are provided in the FDA guidance documents entitled "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Change to an Existing Device" (https://www.fda.gov/media/99812/download) and "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Software Change to an Existing Device" (https://www.fda.gov/media/99785/download).

In both formative and summative testing performed, no application problems were identified that could lead to any risk for the user, patient or third. {9}------------------------------------------------ The verification of the software requirements was performed according IEC 62304. All the tests were performed successfully and met their acceptance criteria. #### Biocompatibility Testing The device has been assessed for the requirement of biocompatibility testing per ISO 10993-1. Since the device is not intended to contact the patient and the user contacts the device only through gloved hands, there are no additional biocompatibility requirements for the device. #### Electrical safety and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) The device has undergone electrical and mechanical safety performance testing and electromagnetic compatibility testing. The system complies 60601-1 Edition 3.2 and 60601-1-2 Edition 4.1. #### VIII. CONCLUSION: The proposed indications for use for the Freddo are the same as those cleared in K060395. The subject device described in this submission is essentially the same device cleared in K060395. The Freddo device has the same intended use as the predicate and do not imply new technological characteristics. According to the Risk-Benefit analysis, the global residual risk has been deemed acceptable since it falls in the area between negligible risks and acceptable risks. The Freddo is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
