DEVICE INFORMATION | Proprietary Trade Name: | Break Wave™ | | --- | --- | | Common Name: | Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripter | | Classification Name: | Lithotripter, Extracorporeal Shock-Wave, Urological | | Product Code: | LNS | | Regulatory Class: | Class II | | Regulation Number: | 21 CFR 876.5990 | | Panel: | Gastroenterology/Urology | ## 3. PREDICATE DEVICE The Break Wave device is substantially equivalent to the previously cleared Break Wave extracorporeal lithotripter (K252913, Product Code: LNS). ## 4. DEVICE DESCRIPTION The Break Wave device is designed for the extracorporeal fragmentation of calculi located in the kidney and ureter. The primary components include a diagnostic ultrasound imaging workstation, imaging probe(s), high voltage signal generator, and piezoelectric acoustic source (therapy probe). The generator controls and drives the therapy probe, which delivers the acoustic pulses required for breaking stones. A lens is used to focus the acoustic waves onto the target Attachment 47: 510(k) Summary Page 1 of 4 {5} K261086 Page 2 of 4 Break Wave (Gen 2.5) Special 510(k) Premarket Notification Property of SonoMotion, Inc. stone, creating stresses within the stone that result in stone fracture. Repeated application of the acoustic waves breaks the stone into small fragments that can pass spontaneously. The imaging workstation and associated ultrasound imaging probe provide the user interface and real-time image guidance for the Break Wave procedure. The imaging and therapy probe are coaxially aligned, with the imaging probe docking into the housing of the therapy probe. The probe assembly is designed to couple directly to the patient's skin and be held in place with a mechanical arm or hand-held. Since the therapy probe has a fixed focus, multiple therapy probes are included to target stones over a range of skin-to-stone distances. The Break Wave device is a portable lithotripter the size of a diagnostic ultrasound system, and the user operates the device similarly to operating a diagnostic ultrasound system. The user applies ultrasound coupling gel to the therapy/imaging probes, places the probe assembly against the patient's skin, and scans the abdomen to locate the stone(s) using standard ultrasound imaging techniques. Once the stone is identified and positioned within the target zone, the operator presses and releases the foot pedal to activate therapy. The operator monitors the fragmentation of the stone in real-time via the coaxial aligned imaging probe. The operator has the option to stop the therapy at any time by pressing and releasing the foot pedal a second time. The procedure will automatically stop at the completion of a single treatment session. The device can be used without the need for patient sedation. ## 5. INTENDED USE/INDICATIONS FOR USE The Break Wave device is intended to fragment urinary stones in the kidney (renal pelvis and renal calyces) and ureter (upper and lower ureter). The Indication for Use for the Break Wave device is the same as the predicate device. ## 6. TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS COMPARISON The SonoMotion Break Wave device has similar technological characteristics as the predicate device. The differences between the Break Wave and predicate device do not introduce new or different questions of safety or effectiveness. ### Similar Technological Characteristics The subject Break Wave device maintains the following similar technological characteristics as the predicate device: - Focuses acoustic waves into the body to non-invasively fragment urinary calculi - Primary system components include a high voltage generator, acoustic wave source, control console, and continuous, in-line ultrasound imaging/localization system - Multiple piezoelectric therapy probes for targeting stones across a range of depths - Therapy probes couple directly to the skin Attachment 47: 510(k) Summary Page 2 of 4 {6} K261086 Page 3 of 4 Break Wave (Gen 2.5) Special 510(k) Premarket Notification Property of SonoMotion, Inc. - Therapy probes can be held by hand or with a mechanical arm - Transportable for use in multiple healthcare environments - Does not require an integrated system table or water circulation system ## Technological Differences The Break Wave device achieves the same function as the predicate device with the following minor technological differences: - Decrease in probe diameter for improved acoustic window access and optimization of focal coverage between probes - Addition of a 4th therapy probe to further optimize the focal coverage between probes - Introduction of RFID technology for pay-for-use licensing - Minor updates to the user interface - Optional components for the mechanical arm accessory - Optional external display kit that allows the patient to observe the ultrasound image if they are unable to see the primary screen - Coexistence of Break Wave and Stone Clear devices on the same device platform ## 7.
