What It Is

The Karl Storz SCB Interface Control Model 20090120 is a control unit designed to interface with ablation devices used in tumor treatment. It allows precise control and monitoring of the ablation process, ensuring effective and safe treatment. This device integrates with other surgical equipment to facilitate minimally invasive procedures.

FDA-Cleared Indications

  • For use as an interface and control unit with compatible Karl Storz surgical equipment and ablation systems.
  • For controlling and monitoring compatible equipment used during tumor-ablation procedures, according to the applicable system labeling.

Clinical Applications

  • Control of compatible ablation equipment during tumor-treatment procedures.
  • Integration with compatible Karl Storz operating-room or minimally invasive surgical equipment.
  • Monitoring and adjustment of ablation-system functions by trained clinicians during an indicated procedure.

Practical Considerations

  • The control unit must be used with compatible ablation devices, probes, cables, software and accessories identified in the manufacturer’s instructions.
  • It is a system-control component, not an ablation probe or an implantable device; the ablation system’s labeling determines the permitted tissue targets, energy settings and clinical indications.
  • Operation requires trained personnel familiar with the interface, equipment connections, alarms and emergency shutdown procedures.
  • MRI safety depends on the complete connected system and the specific procedure environment; this device should not be taken into an MRI suite unless the manufacturer provides applicable MR safety information.
  • Inspect cables, connectors and accessories before use, and follow manufacturer instructions for cleaning, electrical safety, maintenance and servicing.
