Intended Use

The Nidek MK-2000, Keratome is intended to make a flap by incising the cornea at a pre-selected thickness and diameter.

Device Story

Nidek MK-2000 Keratome is an AC-powered surgical instrument for corneal flap creation. System comprises control box, handpiece, and foot pedal. Control box monitors suction pressure via gauge and LED indicators; provides motor control for blade oscillation. Handpiece, constructed of aluminum with stainless steel blade holder, utilizes disposable stainless steel blades and suction rings (8.5, 9.5, 10.5 mm) to fixate eyeball. Applanation plates (130, 160, 180 um) determine flap thickness. Surgeon operates device via foot pedal to control suction application and blade motion (forward/reverse/oscillation). Safety features include vacuum level monitoring, audible tones, and automatic cutting stop upon vacuum loss. Device used in clinical setting to facilitate corneal incisions.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical performance data provided. Effectiveness confirmed via internal validation test procedure (QWF050B).

Technological Characteristics

AC-powered electromechanical keratome. Materials: Aluminum handpiece, stainless steel blade holder/disposable blades. Sensing: Pressure gauge for suction monitoring. Connectivity: None. Sterilization: Disposable blades. Standards: UL2601-1, IEC601-1-1, IEC601-1-2. Operational principle: High-speed oscillating blade with vacuum-based suction ring fixation.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients requiring corneal flap creation for refractive surgery; device uses high-speed stainless steel oscillating blade to incise cornea at pre-selected thickness and diameter.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A keratome is an AC-powered or battery-powered device intended to shave tissue from sections of the cornea for a lamellar (partial thickness) transplant.

CONTROL BOX: The FRONT PANEL consists of: - LED for Power Indicator, Suction Indicator, Confirmation Indicator. . - Pressure Gauge with a pointer for suction pressure. . - Self Test button to perform a pre-test. . - Hand Piece Connector ● - Connector for suction and suction pressure monitoring . The REAR PANEL consists of a AC Power Inlet, Power Switch and a Foot Pedal Connector. The MOTOR CONTROL is Bi-directional control (forward/reverse), one way control for oscillation. - 2. HAND PIECE: The Handpiece contains the blade running and reversing mechanism, the oscillation mechanism, an attachment slot for the Suction Ring, the Blade Holder, and a connector for the Control Box. The Handpiece is made of aluminum. - Blade Holder: is made of Stainless Steel . - Applanation Plate: that determines the thickness of the incised cornea ● (flap) and is fixed to the top of the blade holder. Three Applanation Plates are available dependent on the desired flap thickness (130, 160 & 180 um). - Blade: the keratome blade is pre-sterilized and made of "Stainless Steel" . and is a one-time-use disposable blade. - Single Suction Ring: fixes the hollow part of the suction ring to the eyeball ● under suction. 2 suction ports, one to monitor suction pressure and a second to provide suction. Three suction ring sizes are available, dependent on the desired flap diameter (8.5 mm, 9.5 mm or 10.5 mm). There are NO gear mechanism or sliding guide around the suction ring. ### 2. FOOT PEDAL: Consists of: - "SUCTION SWITCH" to control the applying and stopping of the suction . pressure to the suction ring. - "FORWARD SWITCH" to control the running and oscillation of the blade. . - "REVERSE SWITCH" control the reverse motion of the blade. ● - "CABLE" allow connection to the Control Box. . ### INDICATIONS FOR USE V Intended Use: The Nidek MK-2000, Keratome is intended to make a flap by incising the cornea at a pre-selected thickness and diameter. {2}------------------------------------------------ ## VI CLINICAL PERFORMANCE DATA No clinical performance data has been provided. ## VII NON-CLINICAL PERFORMANCE DATA None provide. ## VIII RATIONAL FOR SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE Our claim of Substantial Equivalence is based on the following; - The INTENDED USES and the OPERATING & CUTTING PRINCIPLES of the . Nidek MK-2000 Keratome is the same as the SIX predicate devices. - The OPERATIONAL FEATURES of the Nidek MK-2000 Keratome are the same . or similar to those offered on one or more of the predicate devices. - The SAFETY FEATURES of the Nidek MK-2000 Keratome are the same or very ● similar to those offered on one or more of the predicate devices. ### IX SAFETY AND EFFECTIVENESS This device is designed to comply with the electrical standards of the Underwriters Laboratories UL2601-1, International Electro-technical Commissions IEC601-1-1 and IEC601-1-2 which reasonably assures the device to be Safe when used as directed for its prescribed intended use. Additionally several operational safety features are designed into this device (Vacuum Level Gauge, a low suction LED and "audible tone" indicators, automatic cutting stop if vacuum level drops, and forward & reverse foot pedal controls). The effectiveness of the device was confirmed by use of QWF050B, Nidek MK-2000 Keratome Validation Test Procedure. #### CONCLUSION × The data submitted in this 510(k) Premarket Notification, for the Nidek MK-2000 Keratome demonstrates that this product is substantially equivalent with respect to the indications for use, operating principles, operational features, and safety features, to other legally market predicate devices. With the information provided, the safety and effectiveness of this product can be reasonably assured, and thus we believe that this device clearly meets the requirement for a "Substantial Equivalence" decision in accordance with the 510(k) guidelines. {3}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/3/Picture/1 description: The image shows the logo for the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services.
