Swearingen Storz Instrument Company 3365 Tree Court Industrial Blvd. St. Louis, MO 63122 314/225-5051, extension 5821 ## Contact Person: Michael H. Southworth Regulatory Affairs Manager ## Date Prepared: April 1, 1996 ## Proprietary Name: This device has been tentatively named the Storz PREMIERE II Microsurgical System. The proprietary name may be changed prior to distribution. ## Common/Usual Name: Ophthalmic surgical system for cataract and vitro retinal surgery. ## Classification Name: The device system is a Class II ophthalmic microsurgical system, Class II medical device, which is a combination of the following classification names: 1. Phacofragmentation system, 21 CFR §886.4670; 2. Vitreous Aspirating and Cutting Device, 21 CFR §886.4150; and 3. Radiofrequency Electrosurgery cautery Apparatus, 21 CFR §886.4100. ## Device Description/ Intended Use: The Storz PREMIERE II is a modular ophthalmic microsurgical system which is designed to be configured by Storz for use in anterior segment surgery only, posterior segment surgery only, or both. The modular design allows user configuration of the system. The PREMIERE II system is divided into the following functional sections: 1. Computer Unit. This unit will sit upon the PREMIERE II Ophthalmic Unit and is composed of an embedded PC and a display console. 668 {1} 2. Ophthalmic Unit. This unit is comprised of a base unit, a power supply module, and up to five selected ophthalmic modules. The base unit is the primary housing for the system ophthalmic instrumentation, and is designed to facilitate front loading and unloading of up to six modules. The power supply module is the power source for the remaining five modules occupying the base unit. The ophthalmic modules are functional units, each of which contain the necessary components to interface the module with the Ophthalmic Base Unit or Ophthalmic Expansion Unit. The ophthalmic modules which will be available at product introduction are: a. Air/Fluid Exchange and Scissors/Forceps module. b. Bipolar Coagulation module. c. Illumination module. d. Irrigation, Scroll Aspiration, and Vitrectomy module. e. Irrigation, Venturi aspiration, and Vitrectomy module. f. Phacoemulsification and Phacofragmentation module. g. Phaco module. h. Frag module. 3. Peripherals. The following peripheral devices will be available at product introduction: Instrument Cart with automated IV pole, Ophthalmic Expansion Unit for additional modules, Remote Control Unit, and Foot Control. New accessory devices to be marketed for use with the Storz PREMIERE II system. These include the following: 1. CX4310 Deluxe Scroll Phaco Pack. 2. CX4800 Deluxe Scroll Posterior Vitrectomy Pack. 3.
