Product Code ESD) #### 510(k) Numbers and Product Codes of equivalent devices: Welch Allyn Video Otoscope (Skaneateles Falls, NY) Welch Allyn Otoscope; K943916 - SE 08/25/1994 Code: ERA: 874.7440 ## Device Description The device consists of a hand held scanner, a single patient use disposable with a silicone conforming membrane, which when in use is filled with an absorbing medium, and a laptop computer. The hand held scanner, when not in use, is placed in a docking stand. The hand held scanner is tethered to the docking stand with a custom cable. The laptop computer is mounted on the docking stand. The hand held scanner contains LED illumination, optics, a camera, a motor to move the probe tip, and a motor-driven reservoir. User Interface (UI) software screens are displayed on the laptop and the user interacts with the device via the laptop keyboard and touchpad, and control buttons on the hand held scanner, as guided by the UI screens. Image data from the patient is stored in the laptop, and may be transmitted by the user via a wireless connection. No patient identifiable data is stored in the Lantos device. A single use disposable, which includes the conforming membrane, is placed over the hand held scanner probe tip, in a manner similar to placing an ear {1}------------------------------------------------ speculum over the viewing tip of a conventional otoscope. The disposable includes a clear window over the probe tip. The probe can be used to inspect the ear canal, when inserted into the ear canal no closer than 4-5 mm from the tympanic membrane. Additionally, the disposable can be filled with an absorbing medium so the membrane conforms to the ear, to enable the 3D scanning functionality of the device. After scanning is complete, the absorbing medium drains from the disposable so that the probe and disposable can be removed from the ear canal. The topographical measurement (scan) of the ear may be transmitted and may be used in the same manner as a desktop scan of a silicone earmold impression. #### Indications for Use The Lantos 3D Ear Scanner is intended for use bv a trained hearing professional on patients 18 years of age and older presenting for inspection of the external ear canal. The Lantos 3D Ear scanner: - . provides a magnified visual image for inspection of the external ear canal and tympanic membrane, and provides illumination of the ear canal for inspection and; - . includes an expanding membrane that can be inserted and conforms to the external ear canal when filled with an absorbing medium which enables the 3D scan and; - . records and presents to the hearing professional in an image file a topology measurement of the external ear canal #### Intended Use Population The Lantos 3D Ear Scanner is indicated for use by trained hearing professionals on patients 18 years of age and older presenting for inspection of the external ear canal. January 17, 2013 Proprietary ~ Page 2 of 4 {2}------------------------------------------------ #### Technological Characteristics The Lantos 3D Ear Scanner is not a change or modification to the predicate device that could significantly affect safety or effectiveness. In other words, there is no change in the intended use (otoscope and hearing aid accessory), design (hand-held with illuminating LED probe tip covered by silicone cover), materials (polymers and silicone), and power source that could raise new issues of safety or effectiveness. The Lantos 3D Ear Scanner followed ACGIH American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists Threshold Limit Values for chemical substances and physical agents and Biological Exposure Indices. 2011. For both intended use and reasonably foreseeable misuse, the Scanner falls within ACGIH Threshold Limit Values for retinal thermal exposure within 10 seconds, blue light exposure within 10000 seconds, actinic ultraviolet radiation within 8 hours of operation and near UV exposure. In addition, the illumination subsystem was evaluated according to ANSI/IESNA RP-27.3-2007 Recommended Practice for Photobiological Safety for Lamps-Risk Group Classification & Labeling to provide a photobiological hazard evaluation (including blue light hazard exposure limits). This evaluation resulted in a "Risk Group 1" classification for the blueviolet LED. The exposure time limit for Risk Group 1 was 15 minutes of direct, continuous exposure to the scanner tip without the membrane attached. Package labeling includes a caution: "Do not stare at the scanner tip, or direct scanner tip toward patient's face, while illumination is active. Staring at scanner tip for more than 15 minutes with no membrane attached under fault conditions may exceed photobiological exposure. May be harmful to the eves." The output of the Lantos 3D Ear Scanner was validated using two known models (cylindrical and anatomical) with given values and obtaining multiple scans on each using multiple Scanner units. All scans were required to have a mean difference between the model and the scan consistent with manufacturer's requirements for fabrication of devices inserted in the ear. #### Performance Standards The Lantos 3D Ear Scanner meets the following Recognized Performance Standards: - ISO 10993 Parts 1-13 as applicable January 17, 2013 Proprietary Page 3 of 4 {3}------------------------------------------------ - IEC 60601-1 Medical Electrical Equipment Part 1: General requirements for basic safety and essential performance - IEC 60601-1-2 Medical Electrical Equipment Part 1-2 General requirements for basic safety and essential performance -Collateral standard: Electromagnetic Compatibility - Requirements and Tests - · IEC 60601-2-18 Medical electrical equipment Part 2-18: Particular requirements for the basic safety and essential performance of endoscopic equipment - ISO 14971: Medical devices—Application of risk management to medical devices ### Conclusion Based on the comparison of the technological characteristics (including the intended use) and verification tests of the Lantos 3D Ear Scanner, there are no significant new issues of safety and effectiveness that are raised when compared to the predicate device. The Lantos 3D Ear Scanner provides for inspection of the ear canal comparable to the predicate otoscope device and also allows for ear canal measurements, which may be used for the manufacture of hearing devices. {4}------------------------------------------------ #### DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES Image /page/4/Picture/1 description: The image shows the logo for the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services.
