Additionally, EMC testing was performed to evaluate the risk of communication loss according to IEC 60601-1-2:2007 and Electrical Safety Tests have been done according to IEC 60601-1-1:2005. #### XVI. Software: Software validation meets the requirements according to IEC 62304:2006: Medical device software - Part 1: Guidance on the application of ISO 14972 to medical device software. #### XVII. Biocompatibility: Biocompatibility was evaluated on attachments/nosepieces which have patient contact and meets the requirements of ISO10993. In addition, Biocompatibility testing per EN ISO 10993-1 was performed. ### XVIII. Animal and Clinical Performance Data: No clinical data is required for this device classification submission. #### XIX. Conclusion: Substantial equivalence of the adeor® Velocity Alpha™ Highspeed Surgical Drill System can be assumed based on the similarity of the devices' technological characteristics, functionality and indications of use.
