Intended Use
Pattern Scanning Laser Trabeculoplasty (PSLT) software is intended for use with the PASCAL Synthesis and PASCAL Synthesis TwinStar for procedures in trabeculoplasty in open angle glaucoma.
Device Story
PSLT software is an enhancement for PASCAL Synthesis and PASCAL Synthesis TwinStar laser systems; simplifies trabeculoplasty by applying fixed patterns of 39 spots to trabecular meshwork instead of single spots. Device uses frequency-doubled solid-state or OPSL laser sources to deliver rapid, uniform, sub-visible (minimally traumatic) treatment. Operated by clinicians in clinical settings via slit lamp adapter with optical fiber delivery. Software provides computer-guided treatment with exact pattern alignment. Output is non-visible laser energy; assists in intraocular pressure control for glaucoma management. Benefits include faster, easier, and more uniform application compared to single-spot methods.
Clinical Evidence
No new clinical testing performed. Leveraged prospective, randomized, controlled study (n=58 eyes) from predicate (K171488). Primary endpoint: change in IOP from baseline to 1-month post-surgery. Secondary endpoint: success at 1-month post-surgery. Study used 2-tailed unpaired t-test, chi-square, Mann-Whitney U, and Kaplan-Meier survival analysis. Results demonstrated safety and effectiveness for trabeculoplasty in open angle glaucoma.
Technological Characteristics
Laser surgical instrument; 532nm (green) and 577nm (yellow) wavelengths. Delivery via slit lamp adapter with optical fiber. Treatment laser: frequency-doubled solid-state or OPSL. Aiming beam: 635nm/670nm direct diode. PSLT software delivers 39-spot patterns (3 rows of 13) with 5-10ms pulse duration. Total energy 3.5J; 3.3mJ per pulse; 42 J/cm² fluence. Software-controlled pattern application.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients with open angle glaucoma, including pseudo-exfoliative and pigmentary glaucoma, requiring bilateral laser trabeculoplasty for intraocular pressure control. Contraindicated in patients with refractory glaucoma, prior ocular laser procedures (SLT, LPI) or intraocular surgery for glaucoma, corneal/conjunctival abnormality precluding contact lens, or severe dry eye syndrome.
Regulatory Classification
Identification

The predicate device has not been subject to a design-related recall.

### 5. Indication for Use Statement
Pattern Scanning Laser Trabeculoplasty (PSLT) software is intended for use with the PASCAL Synthesis and PASCAL Synthesis TwinStar for procedures in trabeculoplasty in open angle glaucoma.
#### 6. Device Description
Pattern Scanning Laser Trabeculoplasty (PSLT) is a software option for the currently marketed PASCAL Streamline (K171488). It represents an enhancement intended to simplify the laser trabeculoplasty procedure by applying a fixed pattern of locations to the trabecular meshwork instead of a single spot. Additionally, this modification offers greater multi-functionality for the management of glaucoma. PSLT provides rapid, defined, uniform and minimally traumatic (sub-visible) computer-guided treatment with exact abutment of the patterns. The patterns readily align to the trabecular meshwork, allowing more rapid and easier applications. Once the software is enabled, the PSLT feature is always available.
#### 7. Substantial Equivalence Discussion
The PASCAL Synthesis and PASCAL Synthesis TwinStar with PSLT option has similar performance characteristics, the same environment of use and patient populations as currently marketed predicate device. As noted in the table, the PSLT software feature in the PASCAL Synthesis and PASCAL Synthesis TwinStar do not raise any different questions of safety or effectiveness as compared to the predicate device.

### 8. Non-Clinical Performance Data
The subject device is identical to the PASCAL Synthesis TwinStar cleared under K170409. Design verification tests were performed on the identical device cleared under K170409. Testing included packaging validation and performance (bench) testing. The device passed all the testing. Software verification and validation testing was performed in accordance with FDA's Guidance for the Content of Premarket Submissions for Software contained in Medical Devices (2005). The results of all verification and validation testing demonstrate that all design and system requirements for the PASCAL Synthesis and PASCAL Synthesis TwinStar with PSLT option have been met.
### 9. Clinical Performance Data
The clinical performance testing of PSLT using the PASCAL Synthesis TwinStar has not been conducted. However, the results of previous clinical performance studies to evaluate safety and effectiveness of trabeculoplasty procedures in patients with open angle glaucoma (submitted to support the premarket notification of the predicate device for PSLT, K171488) is leveraged for this submission. Both subject and predicate hardware platforms are cleared for trabeculoplasty procedures. They deliver the same magnitude of energy pulse, providing for the same total energy at the same wavelengths, and the predicate device uses the same PSLT software as that proposed in the subject device. Therefore, leveraging the clinical data of the predicate is appropriate for this submission.
The K171488 study was a prospective, randomized, controlled study of patients with open angle glaucoma that required bilateral laser trabeculoplasty for intraocular pressure control. The overall design of the clinical study is shown as follows:
{7}------------------------------------------------
- . Clinical Endpoints - (primary endpoint) change in IOP from baseline to 1-month post-surgery as measured by tonometry and (secondary endpoint) success at 1-month post-surgery as measured by tonometry and CLS derived parameters.
- . Subject Criteria – The target population includes subjects fulfilling the standard criteria of the investigational site, who have given informed consent to participate in the study.
- . Subject Inclusion/Exclusion - Inclusion - diagnosis of open angle glaucoma (OAG) including pseudo-exfoliative and pigmentary glaucoma; patients requiring bilateral laser trabeculoplasty for IOP control; structural glaucomatous damage and/or documented glaucomatous VF damage (in the previous 12 months with mean defect (MD) > 2.5 dB; no or stable anti-glaucomatous drug therapy since at least 3 months. Exclusion – refractory glaucoma, patients having undergone ocular laser procedures (SLT, LPI) or intraocular surgery for the treatment of glaucoma; corneal or conjunctival abnormality precluding contact lens adaptation; or severe dry eye syndrome.
- . Study Monitoring - primary endpoints were evaluated at the 1, 3, 6, and 12-month endpoint
- . Data Analysis – the modified intent to treat was used in the analysis to the data. Data were analyzed statistically using a 2-tailed unpaired t test, chi-square test, Mann-Whitney U test, repeated-measures analysis of variance. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis with Mantel-Cox logrank test was used to compare outcomes between groups. The sample size of 58 eyes was calculated to have sufficient power (at least 80% and two-sided alpha of 0.05) to detect to reject the null hypothesis of an inter-group IOP difference of 3 mmHg with a standard deviation of 3.5 mmHg at 1 month. The chief outcome measure was absolute change in IOP from baseline.
Results of the clinical investigation support the indications for use of the PSLT with PASCAL Streamline for procedures in trabeculoplasty in patients with open angle glaucoma by achieving clinical endpoints. Therefore, the clinical study confirms that the device is safe and effective as used according to the instructions for use.
The PSLT Software feature's specifications and performance remains unchanged from PASCAL Streamline, PASCAL Synthesis and PASCAL Synthesis TwinStar. Both laser modalities had similar safety and efficacy profiles. Hence, the results of clinical study data for 'PSLT using PASCAL Streamline' support clinical performance of PSLT with PASCAL Synthesis and PASCAL Synthesis TwinStar.
### Statement of Substantial Equivalence
The results of the performance testing described above demonstrate that the PSLT with PASCAL Synthesis and PASCAL Synthesis TwinStar are as safe and effective as the predicate device and supports a determination of substantial equivalence.
