Intended Use

The Encore System is intended for anterior advancement of the tongue base and hyoid suspension. It is indicated for the treatment of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and / or snoring.

Device Story

Encore System is a surgical device for anterior tongue base and hyoid suspension. It consists of bone screws, suture passers, suspension lines, and associated tools. During surgery, a physician uses the system to fixate soft tissue of the tongue base and hyoid bone to the mandible. The device uses bone screws to secure suspension sutures, which are then tensioned to advance the tongue base anteriorly. This mechanical suspension aims to reduce airway obstruction in patients with OSA or snoring. The system is used in a clinical/surgical setting by a physician. The device provides a mechanical means to achieve anatomical repositioning, which is intended to reduce the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) and improve patient outcomes related to sleep-disordered breathing.

Clinical Evidence

Evidence based on a literature review of 16 peer-reviewed clinical studies involving 377 patients with moderate-to-severe or severe OSA. Studies compared the Encore System (n=45) and AIRvance System (n=332). Results showed a weighted average AHI reduction of 61.8% for the Encore System and 57.8% for the AIRvance System. Complication profiles were reported as similar between the subject and predicate devices.

Technological Characteristics

Bone screw system composed of Titanium 6AL-4V screws (2.8 mm x 5.5 mm). Suspension lines include #2 monofilament polypropylene and #2 braided polyester. Tether line is co-braided polyester/PTFE. Sterilization via ethylene oxide (ISO 11135:2014). Biocompatibility per ISO 10993-7:2012. Mechanical fixation principle.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and/or snoring, including those with severe OSA.

The Encore System consists of 1) an integrated suture passer pre-loaded with size #2-0 braided polyester suture, 2) bone screws and two (2) bone screw inserters, 3) a suspension line lock tool, and 4) a threading tool. In addition, the following suspension lines are provided depending on the model number: 1) a #2 monofilament polypropylene suspension line with a radiopaque marker, 2) a size #2 braided polyester suspension line, and 3) a size #2 braided polyester suspension line with a radiopaque marker. #### Intended Use (Indications) The Encore System is intended for anterior advancement of the tongue base and hyoid suspension. It is indicated for the treatment of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and /or snoring. The intended use has been modified to broaden the intended use from mild and moderate OSA, to now include severe OSA, similar to the MDT AIRvance System (reference predicate). This change does not raise concerns regarding the new intended use since patients who had severe sleep apnea with the Encore System experienced a {4}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/4/Picture/1 description: The image shows the logo for Siesta Medical.

The intended use has been modified to simplify and broaden the indications statement. Also, minor changes have been made compared to the Encore System (primary predicate). These changes include adding a Bone Screw, modifying the Tether Line used to hold the Bone Screw in place on the Inserter Shaft by adding loops to ease threading the Suspension Line through the eyelet of the Bone Screw, and using a co-braided Tether Line to more easily differentiate it from the Suspension Line. The additional Bone Screw is provided as a convenience to the physician in the event that one screw is accidently dropped and deemed non-sterile. The Looped Tether Line allows the physician to thread the Suspension Line through the Bone Screw using fewer steps and without the need for the Threading Tools. Finally, the co-braided Tether Line enables the physician to more easily differentiate it from the Suspension Line during the surgical procedure. The availability of a spare Bone Screw and use of a co-braided Looped Tether Line prior to the surgical procedure are not differences in technology that raise concerns of safety or effectiveness. A comparison of the Encore System to the primary and reference predicate devices is provided in Table 1. The mechanism of action, design characteristics, dimensions, materials, and procedural steps are unchanged. This information supports substantial equivalence of the Encore System (subject device) to the Encore System (primary predicate) and AIRvance System (reference predicate). | Point of<br>Comparison | Characteristic | Siesta Medical<br>Encore System<br>K183310<br>(Subject Device) | Siesta Medical<br>Encore System<br>K133680<br>(Primary Predicate) | Medtronic AIRvance System<br>K122391<br>(Reference Predicate) | Equivalent<br>or Effect<br>of Change | | |---------------------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|--------------------------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | | | Product<br>Labeling | Indication | The ENCORE System is<br>intended for anterior<br>advancement of the tongue<br>base and hyoid suspension.<br>It is indicated for the<br>treatment of obstructive<br>sleep apnea (OSA) and / or<br>snoring. | | The ENCORE System is<br>intended to be used for<br>anterior advancement of the<br>tongue base.

Data is presented from 16 peer-reviewed clinical studies which include a total of 377 treated moderate-severe or severe patients (Table 2). | Treatment<br>Method | Studies<br>(n) | Total Patients<br>(n) | AHI* Reduction<br>(range) | Average AHI Reduction<br>(weighted average) | |---------------------|----------------|-----------------------|---------------------------|---------------------------------------------| | Encore System | 2 | 45 | 41.7 - 69.9% | 61.8% | | AIRvance System | 14 | 332 | 34.7 - 77.4% | 57.8% | | Total | 16 | 377 | - | - | #### Table 2. Clinical Studies from the Medical Literature. * AHI - apnea hypopnea index Patients with severe sleep apnea were treated with the Encore System and experienced a significant reduction in their apnea hypopnea index (AHI) (61.8%) that was similar to the reduction observed with the AIRvance System (57.8%). In addition, the complications are similar between the subject and predicate devices. The medical literature supports the safety and efficacy of suture based hyoid and tongue suspension for the proposed intended use. The Medtronic AIRvance System, a device with similar features, is well documented in the medical literature with extensive clinical data supporting its use, as well as regulatory recognition in the form of marketing clearance. The literature review of published clinical articles demonstrated that the modified intended use does not adversely affect safety and effectiveness. #### Statement of Equivalence Based on similarities in indications for use and technological characteristics, as well as nonclinical and clinical performance (medical literature) testing, we believe the Encore System is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.
