assessed again. Remaining individual risks and overall residual risks are
assessed in the Risk Management Files. Section 5.6.2 Risk/Benefit Assessment
provides an in-depth discussion of the risk/benefit profile.

2.3 Summary for the acceptability under the state of the art in medical

fields
Benefit and risk balance
Patient factors are important to consider in this balance of benefits and risks.
For example:
•Because younger patients are more sensitive to radiation, special care
should be taken in reducing radiation exposure to pediatric patients for all
types of X-ray imaging exams.
•Special care should also be taken in imaging pregnant patients due to
possible effects of radiation exposure to the developing fetus.
•The benefit of possible disease detection should be carefully balanced
against the risks of an imaging screening study on healthy, asymptomatic
patients.

Therefore, the risk management activities of the product are planned and the
risk management plan is formulated at the early stage of design and development
of the product. The risk management plan determines the risk acceptability
criteria for the product, and arranges the risk management activiti es for the
product design and development phase (including the pilot production phase)
and the review requirements for the methods for obtaining production and
post-production information. As the project progressed, the list of product safety
features was gradually completed, hazard judgment and initial Risk control
program analysis, prototype risk assessment (including risk control measures
record sheet and comprehensive residual risk analysis) and risk management
7 / 59
js200.17.2DRF-6A/7B/8B/8PRO Clinical Evaluation Report

report, software risk management report, embedded software risk Management


Report. The risk management team formed by the company determines the
person in charge of risk management of the product to ensure the effective
implementation of all risk management activities of the product in accordance
with the risk management plan. The risk management review group conducts a
comprehensive analysis of all residual risks and considers the combined effect of
all residual risks. According to the risk management review group’s
communication with the clinician, we get the conclusion that the residual risks of
this system are acceptable.
In order to ensure that the products continuously meet the requirements of
clinical performance and safety performance, we have not only established a risk
management plan, but also collected product information during production and
after marketing..
During the production process, we conduct risk manage activities according
to the nonconforming product control procedure (WDCX8301), corrective action
control procedure (WDCX8505), preventive action control procedure
(WDCX8506), production and service control procedure (WDCX7501).
In the after-sales market, we conduct risk manage activities according to the
customer satisfaction survey procedure (WDCX8201), customer complaint
control procedure (WDCX8501), service and feedback control procedure
(WDCX7502) Adverse event monitoring and reevaluation control procedure
(WDCX8206) and post market surveillance control procedure (WDCX9008(CE)).
According to the analysis of the residual risk of this system, we conclude that the
residual risk of this system is acceptable and the profit is greater than the risk.

3.9 Working principles


This system consists of high frequency and high voltage generator, X -ray
tube assembly, collimator, flat panel detector, diagnostic t able, digital image
system, display, workstation and accessories. The high -frequency and
high-voltage generator supplies high voltage to both ends of the X -ray tube
filament and the metal target. A large number of electrons generated on the
cathode filament of the X-ray tube move at high speed in the vacuum tube,
hitting the metal target, thus generating X-ray. The X-ray emitted by the
high-frequency high-voltage generating device penetrates the parts with different
tissue densities such as human bones and muscles, and displays the images of
human tissues with different densities through the digital image receiver (flat
panel detector) for clinical diagnosis.
Working principle of X-ray tube assembly: X-ray tube assembly consists of
X-ray tube and X-ray tube housing, and the tube is installed in the tube housing.
X-ray tube is a kind of high vacuum device. The electrons generated by the
cathode are accelerated by the electric field and bombard the anode target to
produce X-ray.
Working principle of collimator: it controls the irradiation field of the
output ray of the X-ray tube, so as to minimize the projection range, avoid
unnecessary dose, absorb some scattered rays and improve the image definition
on the premise of meeting the requirements of X-ray imaging and diagnosis. It
also indicates the size of the irradiation field.
Working principle of flat panel detector: it converts X -ray directly into
digital image signals, and collects, processes, stores and displays digital signals
through the digital image system to obtain medical images that can be used for
examination and diagnosis.

12 / 59
js200.17.2DRF-6A/7B/8B/8PRO Clinical Evaluation Report

Working principle of the diagnostic table: the table is used to install the flat
panel detector, X-ray tube assembly, collimator, and support the patient. It can
realize the rotation of the table, the longitudinal movement of the pulley and the
transverse movement of the table-top through the electrical control motor to
meet the needs of X-ray inspection. The diagnostic table contains a compressor
assembly, which is used to assist the gastrointestinal examination and compress
the abdomen during gastrointestinal radiography to display the gastrointestinal
mucosa.

3.10 Medical supervision of patients


When using this system, in order to ensure that the patient's current status is
known at any time, it is recommended that the user establish a set of monitoring
procedures to ensure the safety of the patient during the examination. Because
X-ray examination has certain radiation risks, in order to reduce unnecessary
radiation of operators, operators shall observe patients in the observation
window of the control room. It is recommended that users install voice
communication equipment, so that staff and patients can use voice equipment to
communicate at any time. When inspecting the following pati ents, the clinician
or nurse should supervise them in the operating room, and if necessary,
physiological monitoring should be carried out through devices that measure or
evaluate various physiological conditions:
 Patients most likely to have cardiac arrest;
 Patients with hearing or visual impairment cannot maintain effective
communication;
 Patients who have no rational or chaotic mentality or are extremely calm
cannot maintain reliable contact with them;
 Patients who cannot communicate with the operating room or operating
room personnel for other reasons;
 It is recommended that users establish medical supervision for patients
to ensure their safety.

4. Clinical Background, Current Knowledge, State of the Art

4.1 Background
The fluoroscopy and radiography X-ray device is an important part of the
diagnostic X-ray device. It is usually composed of X-ray generator, image
display system, and patient support device. It is used to assist the gastrointestinal
examination, and has both radiography and fluoroscopy functions. It is usually
used to lock the area of interest through dynamic image of fluoroscopy, and then
use large dose radiography to get a clear static image of the area. It is an X-ray
equipment that is used to assist gastrointestinal diagnosis and has the functions
of radiography, fluoroscopy function. It is widely used in the radiology
department of medical institutions.
Since 2011, flat-panel detector gastrointestinal machines have grown
rapidly. With the popularization of flat-panel detector technology and the decline
in price, especially the decline in the price of static flat-panel detector, the sales
of static flat-panel detector gastrointestinal machines have grown rapidly, and
there is a trend to gradually replace the traditional image intensifier. In terms of
dynamic flat panel detector, it is now mainly monopolized by several foreign
companies, but the research and development of domestic dynamic flat panel
detector is also progressing rapidly, and it is expected that the dynamic flat panel
detector will become a new sales trend. Therefore, in 2016, our company decided
16 / 59
js200.17.2DRF-6A/7B/8B/8PRO Clinical Evaluation Report

to develop an economical dynamic flat panel detector to meet the needs of the
market and apply it to our dynamic flat panel detector gastrointestinal machine
products, so as to occupy a larger share of products in this fi eld as soon as
possible.

4.2 State of the art

4.2.1 Identification of medical field relevant medical conditions

X-ray
An X-ray is a common imaging test that’s been used for decades. It can help
your doctor view the inside of your body without having to make an i ncision.
This can help them diagnose, monitor, and treat many medical conditions.
Different types of X-rays are used for different purposes. For example, your
doctor may order a mammogram to examine your breasts. Or they may order an
X-ray with a barium enema to get a closer look at your gastrointestinal tract.
X-rays were found emanating from Crookes tubes, experimental discharge tubes
invented around 1875, by scientists investigating the cathode rays, that is
energetic electron beams, that were first created in the tubes.
The earliest known experimenter with X-rays was actuary William Morgan.
In 1785 he presented a paper to the Royal Society of London describing the
effects of passing electrical currents through a partially evacuated glass tube, the
first X-ray tube. This work was further extended by Humphry Davy and his
assistant Michael Faraday.
In 1876, Eugen Goldstein proved that they came from the cathode, and named
them cathode rays.

Figure 4-1 A simplified diagram of a water-cooled X-ray tube


German physicist Wilhelm Röntgen is usually credited as the discoverer of
X-rays in 1895, because he was the first to systematically study them, though he
is not the first to have observed their effects. He is also the one who gave them
the name "X-rays" (signifying an unknown quantity though many others referred
to these as "Röntgen rays" (and the associated X-ray radiograms as,
"Röntgenograms") for several decades after their discovery and even to this day
17 / 59
js200.17.2DRF-6A/7B/8B/8PRO Clinical Evaluation Report

in some languages, including Röntgen's native German.Röntgen referred to the


radiation as "X", to indicate that it was an unknown type of radiation.
Early in 1896, just a few weeks after Röntgen published his first X -ray
photograph, Pulyui published high-quality X-ray images in journals in Paris and
London.
Advances in radiology
The first use of X-rays under clinical conditions was by John Hall -Edwards
in Birmingham, England on 11 January 1896, when he radiographed a needle
stuck in the hand of an associate. On 14 February 1896 Hall -Edwards was also
the first to use X-rays in a surgical operation. In early 1896, several weeks after
Röntgen's discovery, Ivan RomanovichTarkhanov irradiated frogs and insects
with X-rays, concluding that the rays "not only photograph, but also affect the
living function”.
The first medical X-ray made in the United States was obtained using a
discharge tube of Pulyui's design. In January 1896, on reading of Röntgen's
discovery, Frank Austin of Dartmouth College tested all of the discharge tubes in
the physics laboratory and found that only the Pulyui tube produced X-rays. This
was a result of Pulyui's inclusion of an oblique "target" of mica, used for holding
samples of fluorescent material, within the tube. On 3 February 1896 Gilman
Frost, professor of medicine at the college, and his brother Edwin Frost,
professor of physics, exposed the wrist of Eddie McCarthy, whom Gilman had
treated some weeks earlier for a fracture, to the X -rays and collected the
resulting image of the broken bone on gelatin photographic plates obtained from
Howard Langill, a local photographer also interested in Röntgen's work.
Hazards discovered
With the widespread experimentation with x‑rays after their discovery in
1895 by scientists, physicians, and inventors came many stories of burns, hair
loss, and worse in technical journals of the time. In February 1896, Professor
John Daniel and Dr. William Lofland Dudley of Vanderbilt University reported
hair loss after Dr. Dudley was X-rayed.In August 1896 Dr. HD. Hawks, a
graduate of Columbia College, suffered severe hand and chest burns from an
x-ray demonstration. It was reported in Electrical Review and led to many other
reports of problems associated with x-rays being sent in to the publication.
Other effects were sometimes blamed for the damage including ultravio let
rays and (according to Tesla) ozone. Many physicians claimed there were no
effects from x-ray exposure at all. On 3 August 1905 at San Francisco, California,
Elizabeth Fleischman, American woman X-ray pioneer, died from complications
as a result of her work with X-rays.
Development within 20th century and beyond
In 1904, John Ambrose Fleming invented the thermionic diode, the first

18 / 59
js200.17.2DRF-6A/7B/8B/8PRO Clinical Evaluation Report

kind of vacuum tube. This used a hot cathode that caused an electric current to
flow in a vacuum. This idea was quickly applied to X-ray tubes, and hence
heated-cathode X-ray tubes, called "Coolidge tubes", completely replaced the
troublesome cold cathode tubes by about 1920.
In about 1906, the physicist Charles Barkla discovered that X -rays could be
scattered by gases, and that each element had a characteristic X-ray spectrum. He
won the 1917 Nobel Prize in Physics for this discovery.
In 1912, Max von Laue, Paul Knipping, and Walter Friedrich first observed
the diffraction of X-rays by crystals. This discovery, along with the early work
of Paul Peter Ewald, William Henry Bragg, and William Lawrence Bragg, gave
birth to the field of X-ray crystallography.
The Coolidge X-ray tube was invented during the following year by
William D. Coolidge. It made possible the continuous emissi ons of X-rays.
X-ray tubes similar to this are still in use in 2012.
The X-ray microscope was developed during the 1950s.

(A patient being examined with a thoracic fluoroscope in 1940, which displayed continuous moving
images. This image was used to argue that radiation exposure during the X -ray procedure would be
negligible)
Figure 4-2
An X-ray laser device was proposed as part of the Reagan Administration's
Strategic Defense Initiative in the 1980s.
Phase-contrast X-ray imaging refers to a variety of techniques that use
phase information of a coherent x-ray beam to image soft tissues. It has become
an important method for visualizing cellular and histological structures in a wide
range of biological and medical studies.These methods provide higher contra st
compared to normal absorption-contrast x-ray imaging, making it possible to see
smaller details.
Current state of the X-ray image
With the development of the relevant technology and medical needs,
Medical x-rays are also used in other types of examinations and procedures,
including CT scans and fluoroscopy.Different imaging procedures expose
patients to different amounts of radiation. Conventional and dental x -ray
procedures and mammography use relatively low amounts of radiation. CT scans
19 / 59
js200.17.2DRF-6A/7B/8B/8PRO Clinical Evaluation Report

and fluoroscopic procedures involve multiple exposures and/or a longer


exposure to radiation resulting in higher doses. As with any medical test, the
information gained from an x-ray procedure should outweigh the risk from
radiation. Medical imaging is a very powerful and valuable technique that can
provide important and lifesaving information.
Dental X-Rays
Dental x-rays let your dentist see the condition of your teeth from the crown
to the roots. They also show the bones of the jaw and the overall condition of the
bones of your face.
Mammography
A mammogram is an x-ray picture of breast tissue intended to detect breast
cancer. There are two kinds of mammograms, screening and diagnostic.
Screening mammograms are used to check healthy women with no signs of
disease. Screening mammograms use very small doses of x-ray radiation.
Diagnostic mammograms are used when there are some symptoms of breast
cancer. Diagnostic mammograms require views from more angles. As a result,
more x-rays are needed and patients receive more radiation.
CT Scans
Computed tomography scans (also known as CT scans, CAT scans or
computed axial tomography scans) are advanced x-ray procedures that create
cross-sectional views and three dimensional images of a patient's internal organs.
When a person has a CT scan, many x-rays of their body or body part are taken
at nearly the same time.
CT scans are useful because they help doctors diagnose problems by creating
very clear images of internal organs. The detailed images help identify problems
inside the body, such as tumors or damage to organs. CT scans can also help
doctors prepare for surgery by providing a map of the inside of the patient that
surgeons can follow when operating.
When a person has a CT scan, they are being exposed to more radiation than
when they have a conventional x-ray. The radiation exposure of a CT scan can be
up to several hundred times that of a conventional x -ray. Like any medical test,
the beneficial information gained from a CT scan should outweigh the risk of
radiation exposure from the test performed. Medical imaging is a very powerful
and valuable technique that can provide important and lifesaving information.

Fluoroscopy
Fluoroscopy is like a real-time x-ray movie. It can show the movement of a
body part (like the heart) or the path that a medical instrument or dye (contrast
agent) takes as it travels through the body.
Unlike conventional x-rays, fluoroscopy uses an x-ray beam that is passed
continuously through the body. The image is transmitted to a monitor so that
doctors can see the body part and its motion in real-time. A medical instrument
or dye is then added to show the function of the body part. The total exposure to
x-rays depends on the length of time of the fluoroscopy procedure.
Fluoroscopy is used in many types of examinations and procedures,
including:
• Viewing movement of materials through the stomach and intestines.
• Directing the placement of a catheter during heart surgery.
•Visualizing blood flow to organs.
•Helping doctors properly set broken bones.

4.3 Digital Radiography/Fluoroscopy(R/F) imaging technology and novelty


Gastrointestinal X-ray imaging device was born in 1989 and transformed
from DSA technology. It is an imaging device used by the radiology department
of hospitals to perform gastrointestinal fluoroscop y. Its main uses include:
gastrointestinal radiography, esophagography, gastrointestinal examination,
chest photography, skull and whole body skeleton photography, and some non
vascular interventional radiation therapy applications. Gastrointestinal
radiography, as one of the imaging examination items, in combination with
gastrointestinal endoscopy technology, can conduct a general survey and
diagnosis of most digestive tract diseases, and has the advantages of low
technical difficulty, high inspection efficiency, less pain for the subject, and low
cost.
Early analog gastrointestinal X-ray imaging device used scintillator screens
to form analog images that were observed by doctors' naked eyes and could not
undergo any digital processing. Later, the gastrointestinal X-ray imaging device
used an image intensifier and a digital CCD to collect and store spot images,
which were adjusted, typeset, and labeled before being printed out. After
entering the 21st century, flat panel detectors are gradually replacing ima ge
23 / 59
js200.17.2DRF-6A/7B/8B/8PRO Clinical Evaluation Report

intensifiers as the mainstream imaging system for digital gastrointestinal X -ray


imaging device. Compared with analog gastrointestinal X -ray imaging device,
digital gastrointestinal X-ray imaging devices have the characteristics of simple
operation, wide application range, high host power, high inverter frequency, and
clear images. During the entire examination, patient information can be digitally
stored, replayed, and imaged, greatly improving the detection rate of lesions and
the accuracy of diagnosis.
The DRF device with a dynamic flat panel is the representative of the latest
technology in the field of general radiography, and is a multi -functional DR with
a higher configuration. It can easily achieve multiple functions such as digital
radiography(conventional, special angle photography, and long bone splicing),
digital fluoroscopy, digital angiography, digital gastrointestinal, and
high-definition spot radiography, and enables digital fluoroscopy to achieve
ultra-large dimensions and image effects comparable to flat panel radiography.
Although CT, endoscopic ultrasound, interventional radiology, and other
devices can provide a lot of diagnostic information from different aspects.
However, gastrointestinal diseases are complex, and different symptoms h ave
their own unique examination methods. Human organs are divided into solid
organs (such as the liver, spleen, kidney, and pancreas) and hollow organs (such
as the gastrointestinal tract). Imaging methods such as CT, B-ultrasound, and
magnetic resonance imaging have a good detection rate for solid organ lesions,
but most of them are difficult to use for the examination of hollow organs . As the
most common examination method for gastrointestinal diseases, digital
gastrointestinal machines have their irreplaceable clinical significance. The
clinical advantages and technical novelty of gastrointestinal machines are mainly
reflected in:
 With ordinary fluoroscopy and DR spot function, and can dynamically
and multi-directionally observe organ lesions, making the image clearer;
 The application of various special examinations: gastrointestinal tract
imaging (such as gastrointestinal barium meal), urogenital tract imaging
(such as retrograde nephroureterography), gynecological imaging (such
as hysterosalpingography), as well as arthrography, myelography,
cholangiography, and so on. During real-time monitoring, image
acquisition is performed at any time, capturing key images, and
continuous image acquisition and playback of the entire process is
possible.
 Partial angiography and interventional therapy function: It can reduce
the overlapping images in some conventional angiography, thereby
improving image quality and reducing the rate of misdiagnosis and
missed diagnosis.

24 / 59
js200.17.2DRF-6A/7B/8B/8PRO Clinical Evaluation Report

In addition, the digital gastrointestinal machine also has the following


technical advantages:
 Better image quality. Digital image acquisition: All images collected are
more clear after digital processing, enabling doctors to observe subtle
lesions under various conditions, thereby improving diagnostic accuracy.
 Timely dynamic image acquisition. The digital gastrointestinal machine
can adjust the imaging speed according to the different examination sites,
and can dynamically observe whether the physiological movements of
the organs have changed.
 The fluoroscopy dose was significantly reduced. Significantly reduce the
adverse effects of radiation on patients and staff.
 Image storage and processing functions. The hard disk can store image
data of patients, thereby avoiding information loss.
This product has established mature control standards, including IEC
60601-2-54 and so on. Based on electrical safety testing, electromagnetic
compatibility testing, performance testing, and the above study of the product's
clinical background, current knowledge and scientific background, as well as the
following clinical documentation assessment, fully demonstrates that DRF
system uses principles to achieve its intended use. Therefore, it is not innovative
medical devices.

4.4 The alternative available options


X-ray, CT, and magnetic resonance imaging are several commonly used
methods for medical imaging examination in clinical practice. Their imaging
principles are different, their inspection methods also have their own strengths,
and their emphasis on detecting diseases is also different. X-ray examination can
be the first choice for disease screening, and has good diagnostic value in
diseases such as gastrointestinal tract, bone, chest, opaque foreign bodies,
cardiopulmonary organic diseases, digestive system, and other dis eases; CT
examination is significantly superior to X-ray film in displaying cross-sectional
areas, especially for tissue imaging with high density, and has higher accuracy in
measuring the distance between bone structures. CT examination can also clearly
display the direction of blood vessels and vascular lesions, and the sensitivity of
tumor detection is higher than that of ordinary X-ray examination. However, the
clarity and resolution of CT imaging of soft tissue are not high enough.
Compared with X-ray and CT examinations, MRI has no X-ray radiation
and less damage to the human body. MRI is mainly used to detect soft tissue
diseases, with high sensitivity to vascular, neurological, and other related
diseases. However, the imaging accuracy of MRI for some bone tissues is not as
good as that of CT products.
25 / 59
js200.17.2DRF-6A/7B/8B/8PRO Clinical Evaluation Report

Ultrasound is also an examination that does not involve radiation damage. It


can provide a good display of various parenchymal organs and lesions
throughout the body, and the ultrasound image is closer t o the true anatomical
structure. Ultrasound has a gray scale cross-sectional image that can accurately
locate the lesion based on the display structure and characteristics of the image.
However, the limitation of ultrasound is that the gas in the lung and
gastrointestinal tract may produce a total reflection of the incident light
generated by ultrasound, seriously affecting the effectiveness of the examination.
In addition, if the patient is too fat, due to the inability of ultrasound to penetrate
the fat in the patient's body, the image clarity is poor. Generally speaking,
ultrasound examination is very effective for some large or cystic objects, but the
organ structure and lesions shown in ultrasound image are not as clear as CT and
MRI images.
According to different situations (patient's body, disease, economy, etc.),
consider taking X-ray, CT, ultrasound, or magnetic resonance imaging. Generally,
it is best to have an X-ray examination or ultrasound first to see if there are any
abnormalities. If no obvious abnormalities are found or abnormalities are not
clear, further examination such CT and MRI examination can be considered.
Although X-ray defines detail differently than other imaging modalities, on
occasion alternative tests can be performed. Among ot hers, these include CT
scan, MRI, and ultrasound. The advantages and disadvantages of these devices
are summarized in the table below:

5.1 Type of clinical evaluation


Relevant clinical data to prove that this system achieves its intended
performance during normal conditions of use, for the indications as described in
this clinical evaluation report, results from:
1) literature search
The use and application of the evaluated medical device in the scope of the
intended use is described in section 3.4. The literature search in PubMed,
ClinicalTrials.gov and Cochrane Library to identify the safety and performance
of the evaluated medical devices is deemed to be sufficient. The literature review
and the corresponding results are documented in section 5.4.1.
The search is carried out regularly and new results are included. Depending
on the findings and other relevant new information, a summarizing assessment of
new data is carried out at least once a year in the context of the CER .

2) PMS activities

Internal PMS/PMCF data


We have conducted the post-marketing clinical follow-up according to
<After-sales service and feedback control procedure> (WDCX7502), <Customer
satisfaction survey control procedure> (WDCX8201), <Customer complaint
handling procedure> (WDCX8501), <Adverse Event Monitoring and
Reevaluation Control Procedure> (WDCX8206), <Vigilance system control
procedure> (WDCX9007), <Post-marketing Surveillance control procedure>
(WDCX9008(CE)) to collect the adverse events, recalls and the customers ’
compliant, which serves as the inputs of design changes to improve clinical
performance and safety.
PMCF is a continuous process that updates the clinical evaluation. When
conducting PMCF, we have established <Clinical evaluation procedure>
(WDCX7303) to collect and evaluate clinical data from the use on humans of a
device which has been placed on the market or put into service within its
intended purpose as referred to in the relevant conformity assessment procedure,
confirming the safety and performance throughout the expected lifetime of the
device, of ensuring the continued acceptability of identified risks and of
detecting emerging risks on the basis of factual evidence.
In section 5.3.2, the internal clinical experience data including the internal
PMS/PMCF data are summarized and evaluated.
PMS data from safety databases
Retrospectively, the data of clinical experiences are analyzed and evaluated.

5.2 Demonstration of equivalence
This system is equivalent with Luminos dRF Max of Siemens AG/Siemens
Healthcare GmbH(certificated by TÜV SÜD Product Service GmbH
(Certification Number: G10 091596 0052 Rev. 01).
Both of the devices utilize the same physic principle to obtain X-ray image
of patient. Both of these systems are digital Radiography/Fluoroscopy system.
The imaging principle is to use the principle that the X -ray emitted from the
X-ray tube has different attenuation to the X-ray when it passes through different
tissues and organs of the patient's body. The image formed by the X -ray passing
through the patient and carrying sufficient information is projected onto the
imaging medium, and is converted into a universal X-ray equipment with visible
plane gray scale images. The equivalence analysis was conducted by comparing
the technical characteristics, biological characteristics and clinical

performances from the applicable IEC 60601-1, IEC60601-1-2, IEC60601-1-3,
IEC60601-2-28 and IEC 60601-2-54 had been tested in the third part lab also,
the performances are qualified. Because these parameters are the basic
performance to be as a R/F device, there are almost no special clinical literatures
to evaluate them, with the rational description and the compared with the

essential performances met the GSPR of MDR. DRF-6A/7B/8B/8PRO Systems


are designed based on mature technology and its performance is stable.

5.6.4 Requirement on acceptability of undesirable side-effects (GSPR 8,

GSPR 1)
1) Safety data from clinical use

The side effects on patients in DRF-6A/7B/8B/8PRO Systems examination


mainly reflect X-ray radiation. As a fluoroscopy X-ray machine, this system is
an X-ray device suitable for long-term fluoroscopy operations. During normal
use, the patient's skin dose can be high enough to cause a risk of deterministic
effects. When patients are exposed to excessive radiation, radiation damage can
occur, such as dermatitis, cataracts, hematopoietic system damage, skin cancer,
chronic radiation sickness, and so on. Therefore, all unnecessary X-ray exposure
should be avoided and the necessary exposure maintained at a reasonably
achievable minimum level. Pay attention to controlling the skin dose during
normal use, and ensure that the dose equivalent received by individuals should
not exceed the specified standards.
During X-ray irradiation, the radiation of the X-ray is directional and
controllable, which can basically ensure that only the inspected part will have
radiation, and the radiation dose is also relatively small. With the progress of
equipment technology, the radiation dose has been greatly reduced compared to
the past.
Generally speaking, the human body receives approximately 0.02
millisieverts of radiation per X-ray spot. In China's relevant regulations, the
maximum acceptable annual radiation dose for the human body is only 50
millisieverts, which poses less harm to human health. X-rays are a
"double-edged sword", but the overall benefits outweigh the disadvantages. Long
term clinical experience has proved that the amount of radiation received by
patients during routine medical X-ray examination is very small, and generally
will not cause direct injury to patients with appropriate protective measures and
professional operation.

There were no serious adverse events resulting in death. After analyzing the
causes of these events one by one, among the complaints and adverse events, the
detachment of device or device component accounted for the highest proportion
of 50%, which was mainly caused by the separation of foot support. The second
is unintended collision accounted for 25%, due to the incorrect setting of room
configuration parameters; unintended movement and use of device problem were
1 case each, accounting for about 13%.
b) Through a study of the European Databank on Medical Devices -
