Regulatory Classification

Identification

A diagnostic ultrasonic transducer is a device made of a piezoelectric material that converts electrical signals into acoustic signals and acoustic signals into electrical signals and intended for use in diagnostic ultrasonic medical devices. Accessories of this generic type of device may include transmission media for acoustically coupling the transducer to the body surface, such as acoustic gel, paste, or a flexible fluid container.

Also called the Voluson Neonatal Ultrasound Transducers. | Classification Names: | FR Number | Product Code | |----------------------------------|-----------|--------------| | Diagnostic Ultrasound Transducer | 892.1570 | 90-ITX | #### 3) Identification of the predicate or legally marketed device: Medison America, Inc believes that S-VNA 5-8 and S-VNA 5-8(B) Ultrasound Transducers are substantially equivalent to the currently marketed C530D S-VDW 5-8 Transducer, K974813, {1}------------------------------------------------ K984639 Diagnostic Ultrasound Transducer ## and the Medison SA8800/ATL HDI 1500 P7-4 Transducer, K974269. ### 4) General Ultrasound Scanner Device Description The Voluson C530D scanner (K940942) is a general purpose, mobile, software controlled, diagnostic ultrasound system. Its function is to acquire ultrasound data and to display the data as B-mode, Mmode, Color-Flow Doppler, Pulsed (PW) Doppler and Power Angio Doppler (K974813), or as a combination of these modes. The Voluson C530D also gives the operator the ability to measure anatomical structures and offers analysis packages that provide information that is used to make a diagnosis by competent health care professionals. The Voluson C530D has real time acoustic output display with two basic indices, a mechanical index and a thermal index, which are both automatically displayed. #### Transducer S-VNA 5-8(B) Device Description 5) The S-VNA 5-8(B) transducer is a mechanically steered curved array (Volume) probe. This is identical to the previously cleared (K940942) endocavitary S-VDW 5-8 probe, with the same materials, same acoustic module, and the same technical performance. The primary mechanical difference with the endocavity S-VDW 5-8 probe is the modified (shorter) shaft, designed to allow use on the outer surface of the body. The VOLUSON® Neonatal transducer S-VNA5-8(B) is an electronic wideband sector-transducer with a center frequency of 6.5 MHz and with switchable scan angles. The direction of insonation is forward in relation to the transducer's longitudinal axis. This device is a hand-held, 128 element, curved linear array probe. In addition to B-Mode and M-Mode, this probe can be operated in steerable pulsed Doppler, Color Doppler, Color Power Angio Doppler, and 3D Imaging. Similar to the S-VDW 5-8 transducer, the S-VN A5-8(B) also allows the performance of a 3D volume scan by internally sweeping the array in a lateral direction, automatically upon a key press. The images thus obtained from sectional planes perpendicular to each other can be displayed synoptically on the screen. This device is intended for use with the Combison/Voluson C530D Diagnostic Ultrasound Scanner for transcutaneous imaging as an aid in the detection and assessment of physical and functional abnormalities using established diagnostic criteria. The patient contact materials for biological evaluation that are brought into contact with patients are exactly the same as those of the previously cleared Combison/Voluson C530D Diagnostic Ultrasound System and Transducers (K940942/K974813), specifically the S-VDW 5-8 Endocavity transducer. The S-VNA 5-8(B) Ultrasound Transducer has been designed to meet the following electromechanical safety standards: - EN 60601-1 (IEC 601-1,) European Norm, Medical Electrical Equipment . - . UL 2601-1, Underwriters Laboratories Standards, Medical Electrical Equipment - C22.2 No. 601.1, Canadian Standards Association, Medical Electrical Equipment . {2}------------------------------------------------ - . CEI/IEC 1157:1992, International Electrotechnical Commission, Requirements for the declaration of the acoustic output of medical diagnostic ultrasonic equipment - EN 60601-1-2 (IEC 601-1-2,) European Norm, Collateral Standard: Electromagnetic compatibility . - Compliant with the European Medical Device Directive Certificate issued by TUV. . #### 5) Intended Use: The S-VNA 5-8(B) Ultrasound Transducer intended uses as defined FDA guidance documents are: - . Neonatal Cephalic - . Fetal - Pediatric and Neonatal Abdominal . Typical examinations performed using this transducer are: - General abdominal studies including organ surveys, assessment, and retro-peritoneal cavity studies. . - . Pediatric scans of organs and bony structures. - Neonatal head studies. . - Biopsy guidance for tissue or fluid sampling. ● #### Technological Characteristics: 6) This device operates identical to the predicate devices in that piezoelectric material in the transducer is used as an ultrasound source to transmit sound waves into the body. Sound waves are reflected back to the transducer and converted to electrical signals that are processed and displayed as a 2D and M-mode, Spectral Doppler, Power Doppler, Power Doppler, and 3D images. Scanhead patient contact materials are biocompatible. The device's acoustic output limits are: All Applications: | | (Maximum Range) | |-------|-----------------| | ISPTA | 720 mW/cm2 | | MI | 1.9 | The limits are the same as predicate Track 3 devices. {3}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/3/Picture/1 description: The image shows the logo for the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services. The logo features a stylized caduceus, which is a symbol often associated with medicine and healthcare. The caduceus is depicted with three lines forming a shape reminiscent of a bird or abstract human form. The text "DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES • USA" is arranged in a circular pattern around the caduceus.
