# **Device Information:**
**Trade Name:** NEUROMARK System
**Common Name:** Radiofrequency Probe
**Classification Name:** Electrosurgical cutting and coagulation device and accessories
**Product Code:** GEI
**Classification:** Class II
**Regulation Number:** 21 CFR 878.4400
**Predicate Device:** NEUROMARK System [K250048]
# **Device Description:**
The NEUROMARK System is intended for the application of radiofrequency (RF) energy to create lesions in mucosal tissue in otolaryngological [also known as Ear, Nose and Throat (ENT)] procedures in patients with chronic rhinitis.
The NEUROMARK System is composed of the NEUROMARK Device and the NEUROMARK Radiofrequency (RF) Console.
The NEUROMARK Device is a hand-held, single-use, bipolar radiofrequency device which comprises a handle, shaft, and treatment tip. The treatment tip, which is referred to as the End Effector, consists of an array of bipolar electrodes that deliver RF energy while monitoring feedback on tissue bio-impedance changes allowing for controlled RF energy delivery. The shaft of the device is pre-shaped to aid access and delivery to the nasal cavity but is malleable to allow the user to bend or shape it to accommodate variations in anatomy to access the desired treatment area. The NEUROMARK Device is operated via handle, slider and activation button. Once in the desired position within the nasal cavity,

the operator moves the slider backwards which retracts the outer sheath, deploying the End Effector. Using the activation button, the user initiates a bio-impedance check to assess and confirm contact between the End Effector and the treatment area. Once the System confirms contact has been achieved, a subsequent press of the activation button initiates the RF energy delivery cycle. The NEUROMARK Device is intended for single use and provided sterile (EO).
The NEUROMARK Device is designed for use with the NEUROMARK Radiofrequency (RF) Console only and is connected via a flexible interface cable.
The NEUROMARK Console delivers, monitors and controls RF energy to the Device. The Console includes a Graphical User Interface (GUI) which provides operational instructions for the procedure, directs the user to select nasal cavities for treatment, indicates when the device is in contact with tissue and ready to start treatment, provides status of therapy and indicates when the procedure is complete. The NEUROMARK Console works in conjunction with software.
#### **Indication for Use:**
The NEUROMARK System is indicated for use in otorhinolaryngology (ENT) surgery for creation of radiofrequency (RF) lesions through destruction of soft tissue to disrupt posterior nasal nerves in patients with chronic rhinitis.
#### **Technological Characteristics:**
The subject NEUROMARK System is identical to the predicate NEUROMARK System [K250048] with respect to all technological characteristics, including but not limited to:
- • Fundamental scientific technology and principle of operation;
- • Anatomical location of use;
- • Device design and configuration;
- • Energy type, waveform, frequency, and maximum power output;
- • Feedback control mechanism;
- • Thermal lesion characteristics and thermal safety;
- • Software, electrical safety, and electromagnetic compatibility;
- • Patient-contacting materials and biocompatibility;
- • Sterilization method, sterile barrier packaging, and shelf-life.

# **Performance Data:**
The modification is limited to clarification of the indications for use only and does not affect device design, performance, or technological characteristics. Accordingly, no new performance data were required. Previously submitted verification and validation data remain applicable and continue to demonstrate that the device meets all acceptance criteria and supports a determination of substantial equivalence to the predicate device.
# **Substantial Equivalence:**
The NEUROMARK System has the same intended use and fundamental scientific technology as the predicate device. An evaluation of the impact of the modification was conducted and confirmed that the change to the indications for use does not affect the device design, performance characteristics, or risk profile, and does not raise different questions of safety and effectiveness. As no changes impacting device performance were implemented, no new performance testing was required; previously submitted verification and validation data remain applicable and continue to demonstrate that the device meets its specifications and intended use. The NEUROMARK System is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
# **Conclusion:**
In conclusion, the intended use and fundamental technological characteristics are the same as the predicate device. No new performance testing was required, and previously submitted data remain applicable. Accordingly, the device is as safe and effective as the predicate device and is substantially equivalent.

Part 1 — Search, results, and everyday workflows 16 min
Part 2 — Embeddings: the galaxy map 3 min
1. Search: exact and fuzzy
Type a phrase like "coronary artery calcification" into the search box. You get two kinds of results. Exact results match the literal phrase — prefix searches work ("coronary artery calcificati") but suffix searches do not. Fuzzy results match on the meaning and intent of your phrase rather than the exact words, and are sorted by relevance score. Hover over the Exact or Fuzzy badge on any row to see exactly why it matched.
Use the checkboxes above the results to narrow: SaMD keeps only software-only devices, AI / ML keeps only devices with AI.
Exact vs. fuzzy search: what's the difference?
Exact matches on the literal phrase (prefix search works, suffix does not). Fuzzy matches on the meaning and intent of the phrase rather than the exact words. Hover over the badge on any row to see why it matched.
You search "coronary artery calcification" and want only software devices with AI. What two filters do you apply?
Narrow by SaMD (software-only devices), then narrow by AI/ML (devices with AI).
2. The results table
Scroll right in the results table. The intended use is extracted for you — no need to open the PDF. The device story gives a high-level snapshot of what the device does and how it's used. The AI Performance sub-table shows each output name, acceptance criteria, observed values, and development/test dataset descriptions — the same format Innolitics uses for regulatory strategy outputs, and the fastest high-level fingerprint of an AI device. It is AI-generated but has been very reliable in practice.
Where do you find a device's intended use without opening the PDF?
Scroll right in the search results table. The intended use column is extracted for you; no need to dig into the 510(k) summary PDF.
What does the AI Performance sub-table show, and why is it useful?
Output name, acceptance criteria, observed values, development dataset description, and test dataset description. It's the same format we use for regulatory strategy output and Fast 510(k) input, and the fastest high-level fingerprint of an AI device. AI-generated but reliable in practice.
3. Judging fuzzy relevance
Fuzzy results trail off in relevance as you scroll. Use three signals to decide how far down to go: the fuzzy badge explanations, the intended use column, and whether your target output (e.g., Cobb angle) still appears in the AI Performance sub-table. Once it stops appearing, you're past the relevant zone. A top hit with a low score (~0.4) and a stretched explanation is a hint the closest predicates are far away — the project may be headed for De Novo. Note the fuzzy search is a pattern match: it doesn't handle negation ("not") well, and hardware devices can appear — filter by SaMD/AI ML to cut them.
How do you judge how far down fuzzy search results to go?
Use the relevancy signals: the fuzzy badge explanations, the intended use column, and whether the target output (e.g., Cobb angle) still appears in the AI Performance sub-table. Once it stops appearing, results are trailing off in relevancy.
4. Device detail page: chat and citations
Click a device name to open its detail page: device facts on the left, a chat window on the right. Ask something like "Describe the training data". The answer carries little citation bubbles — click one to jump to the highlighted passage in the source PDF, so you can verify every AI answer against the document. There's also a Download PDF button for sharing.
How do you verify an AI chat answer on the device detail page?
Click the citation bubbles to jump to the relevant highlight in the source document.
Reading rule for every project: how many summaries do you read in full?
At least the three most relevant 510(k) or De Novo summaries, in full. After that, use targeted chat questions to confirm your memory quickly. The tool supports this professional habit — it doesn't replace it.
5. Side-by-side comparison
Select multiple rows in the results table (aim for under ~10), then open the PDF Viewer tab. Ask one question — it goes to all selected devices in parallel, each with citations. This is the fastest way to compare and contrast devices: training data, PCCP scope, how they handled adding new scanners, and so on.
What does the side-by-side PDF viewer mode do?
Select multiple devices, open the PDF viewer tab, and ask one question (e.g., "Describe the training data"). It queries all selected devices simultaneously with citations, so you can compare and contrast quickly.
6. Collections
With rows selected, go to the Collections tab and create a labeled collection (e.g., "Cobb Angle Project"). Reload that selection any time — before a client call, pull up the collection and ask questions across all of its devices at once.
How do you save a set of selected devices for later use?
Select the rows, go to the Collections tab, and create a labeled collection (e.g., "Cobb Angle Project"). You can reload the selection anytime and carry it into the PDF viewer and other tabs that support selections.
7. Product codes and the regulations tree
Click a product code in the results to jump to it in the regulations tree — identification text, sibling product codes, and devices you can open in a PDF viewer on the right. Click a regulation number to see its identification, special controls, and related product codes. You can also search by product code or regulation number at the top of the tree. Always read the special controls if any exist for your device — it broadens your search and sharpens pre-kickoff research.
What can you do from the regulations tree view?
Browse product codes and regulation numbers, read the identification text and special controls, browse sibling product codes, open device PDFs on the right, and search by product code or regulation number at the top of the tree.
8. Chart view
Click Show Chart and segment by regulation number (or product code) to see which regulations dominate your result set. Clicking a regulation takes you into the regulations tree. Great for spotting that most matches are, say, hardware laparoscopic devices — a cue to go back and filter.
How do you see which regulations dominate a search result set?
Click "Show Chart" and segment by Regulation Number. Clicking a regulation takes you to the regulations tree.
9. The predicate graph
Open the Predicates tab for a family-tree view of predicate relationships. Click a node to trace its parents and children; selections from search carry over pre-selected. Commonly predicated devices are worth reading — a lot of people predicated them for a reason. The visual lineage is also handy on client calls, e.g. to show how a predicate family evolved and justify why your predicate still holds.
In the predicate graph, why are commonly predicated devices worth reading?
A lot of people predicated them for a reason. Clicking a node traces parents and children, and selections from search carry over pre-selected.
10. Embeddings: the galaxy map
The Embeddings tab plots every matching document in a 2-D "galaxy map" where semantically similar devices cluster together. Hover or click clusters to explore, and let AI label the clusters for you. Embeddings beat product codes for grouping: two devices can carry different product codes (LLZ vs. QIH) yet do the same thing — the embedding captures the meaning of the intended use and device story. This is also exactly how retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) works under the hood, and it makes a great visual on client calls.
