Intended Use

To locate, illuminate within, and transilluminate across nasal and sinus structures in adults aged 18 and over.

Device Story

PathAssist Light Fiber is a flexible, single-use instrument designed to assist in visualizing nasal and sinus structures. The device connects to an external light source via standard light cables and adapters to emit light from its distal tip. It features a male tuohy borst adapter for secure placement within compatible working lumen instruments. During clinical use, the device is inserted into the nasal/sinus cavity; light transmitted through the fiber optic cable allows for transillumination of the sinus structures. This visualization aids clinicians in locating and navigating sinus anatomy. The device is provided sterile and is intended for use by healthcare professionals in a clinical setting.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data submitted. Performance testing included biocompatibility, design verification (functional and mechanical testing), packaging, sterilization, shelf life, and simulated use in a cadaver model.

Technological Characteristics

Flexible fiber optic instrument; transmits light from proximal to distal tip. Materials are biocompatible per ISO 10993-1. Sterilized via Ethylene Oxide (EtO) per ISO 11135-1 (SAL 10^-6). Includes male tuohy borst adapter for integration with working lumen instruments. Compatible with standard light post adapters and cables. Single-use.

Indications for Use

Indicated for adults aged 18 and over to locate, illuminate, and transilluminate nasal and sinus structures.

The Light Fiber is provided sterile and is for single use only. It comes with a male tuohy borst adapter, which allows the device to be secured within compatible working lumen instruments. The Light Fiber is also compatible with standard light post adapters and light cables. Image /page/0/Figure/17 description: The image shows a diagram of a fiber optic cable. The cable consists of a light post, strain relief, flexible sheath, and the fiber itself. The flexible sheath is coiled in a loop. PathAssist Light Fiber {1}------------------------------------------------ ### Indication for Use To locate, illuminate within, and transilluminate across nasal and sinus structures in adults aged 18 and over. # Contraindications: None # Technological Characteristics: The subject device has very similar technological characteristics (i.e., design, function, principle of operation, materials, biocompatibility and sterilization) as the predicate device: Acclarent Relieva Luma Sinus Illumination System [K071845]. Both the subject device and predicate device [K071845] are flexible devices that transmit light from the proximal to distal tip of the device via Light Fibers that can be seen via transillumination. Both devices can be connected to a standard light source via a light cable and an adapter. Both the subject and predicate device [K071845] are sterilized using Ethylene Oxide (EtO), validated per ISO 11135-1, and have a Sterility Assurance Level (SAL) of 106. Both devices are provided sterile, are for single use only and are biocompatible per ISO 10993-1. ### Substantial Equivalence: The intended use and indications for use of the subject device are the same as the predicate device [Relieva Luma Sinus Illumination System, K071845]. The technological characteristics of the subject device are very similar to the predicate device [K071845], including: design, function, principle of operation, materials, biocompatibility and sterilization. #### Performance Data: Performance testing of the PathAssist Light Fiber consisted of biocompatibility testing, design verification testing, packaging, sterilization, shelf life and simulated use in a cadaver model. Design verification testing included functional and mechanical testing, and compatibility testing. Animal and clinical data were not submitted. Performance testing showed that the device meets design specifications and performed as intended. # Conclusion In conclusion, the device is substantially equivalent based on a comparison of intended use, indications for use, and technological characteristics. The device is safe and effective for its intended use. {2}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/2/Picture/1 description: The image shows the seal for the Department of Health & Human Services USA.
