Indications for Use

To be used in treatment where whole body radiation therapy is indicated. The shielding tray reduces the radiation exposure to those organs, such as lungs, which are desired to be shielded.

Device Story

PC-controlled radiation therapy patient support assembly; facilitates whole body radiation therapy. Device features motorized patient table, shielding tray, and attenuating tray. Clinician places patient on table; custom lead shields positioned over organs (e.g., lungs) to reduce radiation exposure. Motorized system moves table and shielding tray coincidentally during treatment. Includes Plexiglas housing for bolusing materials and slots for dose verification. Safety features include limit switches, automatic treatment termination if table fails to move, and interlocks for attenuation stand. Used in hospital settings by clinicians. Benefits include controlled patient motion during therapy and automated, synchronized shielding to protect sensitive organs.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided; bench testing only.

Technological Characteristics

Materials: steel/aluminum rails, Plexiglas housing. Energy: low voltage motor system. Control: PC-based motor control. Features: motorized longitudinal table movement, motorized shielding tray, attenuating tray with safety interlock, digital movement indicators. Connectivity: standalone.

This method reduces the potential of radiation exposure to the sensitive organs, e.g., lungs, which are intended to be protected. - Attenuating stand has a safety interlock to assure that it is in place before beam is activated. 4. - The Plexiglas housing on the table permits the patient have bolusing material place around them in a more ನೆ convenient fashion. There are no other differences which would have a significant effect of the safety or effectiveness of the device. {3}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/3/Picture/1 description: The image shows the logo for the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services.

Waterview Court McCordsville, IN 46055 Re: K982446 Dynamic Shielding Radiation Table Dated: July 14, 1998 Received: July 15, 1998 Regulatory class: II 21 CFR 892.5770/Procode: 90 JAI Dear Mr. Dryden: We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act). 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 (Premarket Approval), 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 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the Current Good Manufacturing Practice requirements, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic QS inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations. This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your S10(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. If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801 and additionally 809.10 for in vitro diagnostic devices), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4613.
