Indications for Use

The Prager Shell® is a plastic device intended to provide a water path between an ultrasound transducer and the eye. It is intended for A-scan biometry of the eye.

Device Story

Prager Shell is a rigid, biocompatible plastic cylinder with open top and bottom; bottom rim contoured to eye curvature. Device functions as a water path accessory for ultrasound transducers during A-scan biometry. Operator places shell on eye; fills with balanced salt solution (BSS); immerses distal end of ultrasound probe into BSS. Device locks onto specific manufacturer transducers. Reusable; non-sterile. Benefits include providing stable acoustic coupling medium for ocular ultrasound measurements.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data. Bench testing only, including biocompatibility testing.

Technological Characteristics

Biocompatible rigid plastic construction. Cylindrical form factor with contoured base for ocular interface. Mechanical locking mechanism for transducer attachment. Non-sterile, reusable. No electronic components or software.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients undergoing A-scan biometry of the eye.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A diagnostic ultrasonic transducer is a device made of a piezoelectric material that converts electrical signals into acoustic signals and acoustic signals into electrical signals and intended for use in diagnostic ultrasonic medical devices. Accessories of this generic type of device may include transmission media for acoustically coupling the transducer to the body surface, such as acoustic gel, paste, or a flexible fluid container.

Plymouth, MN 55447 Telephone Number: 763-473-2533 Contact Person: Dr. George Myers Medsys Inc. 377 Rt. 17 S Hasbrouck Heights, NJ 07604 201-727-1703 Date Prepared: September 3, 2008 (2) Name of Device: Trade Name: Prager Shell Common Name: Rigid Water Path for Ultrasonic Transducers Classification Name: Scleral Shell (Accessory to ultrasound system). (3) Equivalent legally-marketed devices: Preamendment device Water Bath for Sonometrics Coleman A-B scan system. (4) Description The shell is a cylinder with an open top and open bottom,. The open bottom end is contoured at the rim to conform to the curvature of the eye. The ultrasonic transducer is placed in the Prager {1}------------------------------------------------ Shell® from above. Once placed on the eye the shell is filled with balanced salt solution (BSS) and the probe distal end is immersed in the BSS. It is not sold sterile and is reusable. Tubing kits are available to connect the shell to the BSS source. These kits are distributed by ESI but not manufactured by it. (5) Intended Use The Prager Shell® is a plastic device intended to provide a water path between an ultrasound transducer and the eye. It is intended for A-scan biometry of the eye. (6) Technological Characteristics The Prager Shell is made of a biologically-compatible rigid plastic. Each model fits the transducers of specific ultrasound manufacturers. They are fitted with mechanisms so that they may be locked in place on the transducers (7) Performance data (a) Non-clinical tests Biocompatibility tests have been done. (b) Clinical tests Not required (8) Conclusions The Prager Shell is equivalent in safety and efficacy to the legally marketed predicate device. {2}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/2/Picture/0 description: The image shows the logo for the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services. The logo consists of a stylized eagle with its wings spread, and the words "DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES - USA" are arranged in a circular pattern around the eagle.

You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. {3}------------------------------------------------ #### Page 2 Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050. This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.
