1.1. Indications for Use

The LED illuminator is used to illuminate the site of surgery during minimally invasive procedures
including, but not limited to arthroscopy (orthopedic surgery), laparoscopy (general and
gynecological surgery), and endoscopy (general, gastroenterological, and ENT surgery). Light is
typically transmitted from the illuminator through a fiber optic cable and typically a scope or other
light guide.
All LED illuminators are intended to be used in a controlled operating room environment by
qualified medical personnel. The LED illuminator provided non-sterile and is not intended to be
sterilized. The system has an expected, but not limited, three-year service life.
No illuminator is intended to be used for monitoring, diagnostic, or other life support functions. No
device sustains nor supports life. The device is not intended to compensate for injury, handicap,
replacement or modification of anatomy, or control of conception. No special intervention is
necessary in the event of device failure. As such, this device has no essential performance as
defined by IEC 60601-1, and should this device fail to operate, a suitable backup should be
available for any procedure where it may be used.
There are no contraindications.

1.2. Functions of Design

The LED-2000 comprises a standalone, mains-powered illuminator that produces 1000lm (typical)
in the visible spectrum range. The illuminator is typically used with a fiberoptic light guide that
connects to a light port located on the front panel. Light intensity is controlled via rotating dimming
knob located on the front panel of the console.
