Intended Use
Anspach micro saw attachments are indicated for use with eMax electrical and Black Max, MicroMax pneumatic drill systems for surgical cutting, shaping and removal of bone, including bones of the spine and cranium.
Device Story
Advanced Micro Saw Attachments consist of a keyless driver and saw head; connects to Anspach surgical drill motor systems (electric or pneumatic). Driver reduces motor speed via internal gear reduction mechanism; saw head converts rotational drive into sagittal, oscillating, or reciprocating motion. Used in surgical settings by trained surgeons for bone cutting, shaping, and removal (spine/cranium). Drivers and heads are reusable, stainless steel, and cleanable; saw blades are pre-sterilized, single-use disposables. Device enables precise bone manipulation during specialized surgical procedures.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Risk assessment and bench testing performed to validate design, process, and labeling. Device meets UL 2901-1, CSA-C22.2 No. 601.1, and EN60601-1 standards.
Technological Characteristics
Stainless steel construction; internal gear reduction mechanism; keyless driver interface; tool-less attachment. Compatible with electric and pneumatic drill motors. Reusable components withstand 278°F (static) for 30 minutes. Single-use disposable saw blades sterilized to appropriate SAL. Complies with UL 2901-1, CSA-C22.2 No. 601.1, and EN60601-1.
Indications for Use
Indicated for use by qualified and trained surgeons for surgical cutting, shaping, and removal of bone, including spine and cranium, using Anspach surgical drill motor systems.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
Powered simple cranial drills, burrs, trephines, and their accessories are bone cutting and drilling instruments used on a patient's skull. The instruments are used with a power source but do not have a clutch mechanism to disengage the tip after penetrating the skull.

## 510{k} SUMMARY: -- Advanced Micro Saw Attachments
### CLASSIFICATION : US Class II
### PERFORMANCE STANDARDS:
No known performance standards.
### DESIGN, MATERIALS AND OPERATION CHARACTERISTICS;
Keyless driver connects to surgical motor (or eMax Console - electric driver) and holds the micro saw head.. It reduces motor speed and drives the attached saw blade.
There designs: Black Max, MicroMaxleMax and "stand alone" electric driver certified to:
- UL 2901-1: Second Addition, Rev. 10/24/97 .
- CSA-C22.2 No. 601.1- M90, including General Instruction No. 1 .
- EN60601-1. Issue 2. (including A1. A2. A11-13) .
Drivers are non-invasive and non-patient contact; contain no materials or substances which could be transferred to patient. Drivers cannot internally transfer materials or substances from motor. Drivers are reusable and can be cleaned with soap/water or isopropyl alcohol and can withstand temperatures of up to 278°(F) for up to 30 min. (static).
Micro saw head attaches to keyless driver without tools. Head converts motor rotational drive to sagittal, oscillating or reciprocating motions. Heads may be surgically invasive. Unintentional contact may occur due to proximity of blade and tissues of surgical site. Heads are constructed of biocompatible materials and contain no substances which could be transferred to patient. Like drivers, heads cannot internally transfer substances from motor. Heads are reusable and can be cleaned with soap-water or isopropy! alcohol and can withstand temperatures up to 278°(F) for up to 30 min. (static).
Saw blades are pre-sterilized, single-use, disposable bone cutting blades. Saw blades are sterilized to an appropriate SAL as specified by recognized standards for sterilization.
### RISK ASSESSMENT:
Risk assessment has been accomplished for the micro saws. All identified risks and hazards associated with use of the micro saws were capable of being reduced to acceptable levels through design, process and/or labeling activities.
### INDICATIONS / CONTRAINDICATIONS:
There are no specific indications or contraindications for use of micro saw attachments. Generally, micro saw attachments are indicated for use only by qualified and trained surgeons. with Anspach surgical drill motor systems, for surgical cutting, shaping and removal of bone, including bones of the spine and cranium.
