RX Only – NGP Z370500 Rev. B 1116 1-2 WHITESTAR SIGNATURE PRO System 1 • Introduction About this Manual This manual includes information about the design of the WHITESTAR SIGNATURE PRO System for anterior segment (phacoemulsification) surgical procedures. This manual includes information about optional system enhancements. Your Abbott Medical Optics Inc. (AMO) representative can confirm the availability of these features for your system configuration and availability in your area. About Phacoemulsification Over thirty years ago, Dr. Charles Kelman conceived and developed phacoemulsification (phaco), a method of cataract removal by use of ultrasonic emulsification with aspiration of the cataractous lens through a small incision. Phacoemulsification is advantageous for both patient and surgeon: • Greater intraoperative control. • The smaller incision requires fewer or no sutures, poses less risk of infection and induced astigmatism, and gives better long-term and short-term predictability of vision. • Patients are able to resume normal activity much sooner and with fewer restrictions than with traditional cataract extraction surgeries. AMO supports phacoemulsification with sophisticated instrumentation that optimizes the benefits of this surgical procedure. Intended Use The WHITESTAR SIGNATURE PRO System is a modular ophthalmic microsurgical system that facilitates anterior segment (cataract) surgery. The modular design allows the users to configure the system to meet their surgical requirements. WHITESTAR SIGNATURE PRO System Description and Features The WHITESTAR SIGNATURE PRO System is a multi-functional tool for use in anterior segment surgery procedures. The WHITESTAR SIGNATURE PRO System represents the latest generation of AMO phacoemulsification technology. Designed and manufactured into every WHITESTAR SIGNATURE PRO System are safety, ease-of-use, and reliability. The WHITESTAR SIGNATURE PRO System meets applicable United States and International safety requirements for this type of device. The WHITESTAR SIGNATURE PRO System contains a number of features based on extensive research and clinical trials with highly trained and noted ophthalmologists with experience as phacoemulsification surgeons. WHITESTAR Technology The WHITESTAR Technology represents the many enhancements to the power modulation for the WHITESTAR SIGNATURE PRO System. The WHITESTAR Technology enhancement was the first to deliver finely modulated pulses of energy, interrupted by extremely brief cooling periods. This allows the system to achieve full ultrasound cutting efficiency and magnetic followability, while introducing less energy into the eye. Minimized ultrasonic time reduces the risk of thermal damage.

RX Only – NGP Z370500 Rev. B 1116 1-3 WHITESTAR SIGNATURE PRO System 1 • Introduction WHITESTAR ICE Technology The WHITESTAR ICE Technology was the next advance in micropulse phacoemulsification technology. This technology combined modulated ultrasonic power (pulse shaping) with vacuum control through the use of the Chamber Stabilization Environment (CASE). This pulse shaping technology modified the standard “square” wave pulse, by increasing the amplitude of the first millisecond of the on time “kick”. The technology then set the remaining part of the on time to the standard power setting. This process repeats for each on time pulse. This results in increased control and efficiency in phacoemulsification. Occlusion Mode Phaco The Occlusion mode phaco regulates the vacuum rise time following an occlusion of the phaco tip, without limiting the choice of aspiration rate through an unoccluded needle. To independently control the aspiration rate and the vacuum rise time, you can have a different aspiration rate when the needle occludes than when the needle is unoccluded. The Occlusion mode phaco also regulates the ultrasound power modulation. You can program the power modulation of the phaco handpiece (continuous, pulse, burst) to automatically change when the phaco tip changes from an unoccluded condition to an occluded condition. The FUSION mode allows the user to access the settings and variables for both CASE and Occlusion mode phaco. The CASE and Occlusion mode phaco can work together or independently. FUSION Fluidics System The system has both a flow-based peristaltic pump system and a vacuum-based Venturi pump system. The patented microprocessor-based system continuously monitors and controls intraocular conditions of the flow and vacuum in the eye. Chamber Stabilization Environment (CASE) CASE is an intelligent vacuum monitoring system that regulates the maximum allowable vacuum used following the occlusion of the phaco tip. When the phaco tip becomes occluded, the vacuum rises. Clearing of the occlusion while the vacuum is at a high-level can lead to a post occlusion surge. When CASE is on, the system monitors the actual vacuum levels. When the vacuum exceeds a specific threshold for a specified duration, the system automatically adjusts the maximum allowable vacuum setting to a lower predefined CASE maximum vacuum level. When the occlusion clears, the system automatically restores the settings to the original programmed maximum vacuum setting. This function makes it possible to have a different maximum vacuum setting when the needle occludes than when the needle is unoccluded.

ELLIPS FX Handpiece The ELLIPS FX phaco handpiece is available for use with the WHITESTAR SIGNATURE PRO System. The ELLIPS FX handpiece provides both longitudinal and transversal movement. You can use the handpiece with a straight tip or a curved tip. Foot Pedal The foot pedal controls the various operating modes of the instrument. You can program the foot pedal settings through the user interface. You can use either the Single Linear foot pedal, the Advanced Control Pedal or the Advanced Linear Pedal with the system. The foot pedal design offers control through the use of increased linearity with the foot pedal movement. The design provides uniform pressure throughout the foot pedal movement, easing foot and leg fatigue. You can select the degrees of movement for each foot pedal position. You can save the settings for each surgeon/ mode, pitch for the standard foot pedal and the Advanced Linear Pedal and pitch and yaw for the Advanced Control Pedal giving the pedal dual linear functionality. Programmable switches can activate reflux, giving an immediate response. Wireless Remote Control The surgery can be controlled from the wireless remote control keypad. You can access all surgical modes and adjust all surgical settings with the use of the wireless remote control. Back-lighting supports low light operating room conditions.

RX Only – NGP Z370500 Rev. B 1116 1-5 WHITESTAR SIGNATURE PRO System 1 • Introduction WHITESTAR SIGNATURE PRO System Console Operating room teams contributed significantly to the successful design of the system console. The solid wheel base and locking wheels make the console stable and smooth rolling. An adjustable height Mayo tray accommodates the handpieces and tubing. The remote control is wireless and recharges when attached to the AC Charging Adapter. The foot pedal has an open bin area for storage. WHITESTAR SIGNATURE PRO System Display (Graphic User Interface-GUI) The system graphic screen display is easy to read and easy to operate. You can see at a glance the status of the system. The screen gives you visual indication of operating modes, settings, and system status. Messages cue you through the procedure, and error messages indicate improper connections, or selections. Help information is available when resolving error messages. Prime/Tune Before the start of each surgical case, the system requires that you run prime, tune or prime/tune. The prime mode incorporates the function of clearing the tubing of air, then fills the tubing and completes the fluid aspiration check and the vacuum check. The tune mode incorporates an ultrasonic power calibration check and safety check for the attached phaco handpiece. The prime/tune mode allows the system to prime and tune the handpiece at the same time. Dual Pump The system provides a fluid aspiration system that uses either a peristaltic (flow-based) pump or a Venturi (vacuum-based) pump system. The surgeon can use both the peristaltic pump and the Venturi pump in the phaco, irrigation/ aspiration (I/A), and vitrectomy surgical modes. Continuous Irrigation Continuous Irrigation is immediately available by way of the touch screen. Surgeon control of continuous irrigation with the foot pedal is also available. You can use continuous irrigation to fill cups prior to prime/tune. You can use the cup fill feature in place of continuous irrigation when you fill a cup. The cup fill feature is only available from the prime/tune screen. (See “Prime/Tune” on page 3-11 for detailed information.) Programmable Operating Parameters The system is programmable through the screens on the touch screen monitor. You can select your desired settings for each portion of the anterior surgical procedure. The instrument program memory stores up to 50 surgeon names with a maximum of 20 different setups, plus the AMO default settings program and the Post Laser Cataract program. This allows different users to preset their preferences, or an individual user to select setups for different procedures, including a personalized initial operating mode.

RX Only – NGP Z370500 Rev. B 1116 1-6 WHITESTAR SIGNATURE PRO System 1 • Introduction MMP – Multiple Mode Programming Multiple submodes are available within the system operating modes. The multiple submodes allows you to preset your settings for specific techniques such as phaco chop or viscoelastic removal. Programmable IV Pole The system has a programmable IV pole. You can set the programmable IV pole height parameters independently for each of the phaco modes plus settings for I/A, and vitrectomy. During surgery, the programmable IV pole height changes to the preprogrammed height when you switch modes. The automated and programmable IV pole allows adjustment of the bottle height to provide gravity infusion through each procedural phase. The up and down arrows on the touch screen or the wireless remote control raises and lowers the bottled balanced salt solution, while maintaining the sterility of the operating field. A separate up and down switch allows IV pole adjustment from the side of the system. The foot pedal can also be programed to move the IV pole. Note: The IV pole movement is calibrated in centimeters. When the IV pole height is set to inches, the height shown may not update immediately upon pressing the up arrow or down arrow. WHITESTAR SIGNATURE PRO System Operating Modes The design of the system provides all the operating modes and surgical capabilities that the anterior segment surgeon or the cataract surgeon requires. These capabilities include: Phacoemulsification (Phaco) You use the phacoemulsification mode to break up (emulsify) the nucleus of the lens. You then aspirate the nucleus of the lens from the eye through a small incision. The continuous autotuning circuitry maximizes the emulsification efficiency for each lens density, even varying densities within the same lens. The system displays phaco time in minutes and seconds. The convenient selection of linear or panel preset phaco power, in a variety of power delivery options (continuous, pulsed, burst), provides increased precision, and control. The WHITESTAR Technology allows you to safely remove all lens types through small incisions with single-mode, single-instrument convenience. The WHITESTAR Technology is a patented software program proven to change the characteristics of phacoemulsification using little or no ultrasound. The WHITESTAR Technology changes the thermal properties and improves control of the lens without reducing the cutting power or changing technique or efficiency.

RX Only – NGP Z370500 Rev. B 1116 1-7 WHITESTAR SIGNATURE PRO System 1 • Introduction Irrigation/Aspiration (I/A) The irrigation and aspiration mode allows for controlled aspiration of cortical material from the eye, while maintaining intraocular stability, by replacing the aspirated material with a balanced salt solution. This mode gives you flexible control of each case with the independently adjustable vacuum level settings and flow rate settings. A peristaltic pump provides a predictable and stable aspiration rate. “Aspiration Rate” and “Vacuum” settings allows for complete control. Irrigation is gravity-fed. Note: The vacuum units can be set to either mmHg or kPa. To set the vacuum units go to Configuration, Set Vacuum Units. You can regulate the gravity-fed irrigation by adjusting the height of the balanced salt solution bottle (peristaltic). The Venturi pump can also be used to regulate irrigation. Vitrectomy (VIT) You use the Vitrectomy mode to remove vitreous from the eye during surgery. The system uses air pressure to drive the vitreous cutter. The wide range of user-controlled, programmable cut rates supports both anterior segment and posterior segment surgeries. Diathermy (DIA) Most surgeons use the diathermy mode to coagulate blood vessels during the procedure and by some surgeons to “coag” the conjunctiva at the end of the procedure. An isolated output frequency allows noncontact tissue coagulation, eliminating adhesion, and traction. Also, the depth of penetration of the energy field is less than that of lower frequency units, which minimizes tissue shrinkage or charring. The gentleness of the diathermy mode allows the surgeon to stop “bleeders” within the incision with only minimal scleral shrinkage. CASE One Touch The One Touch button simplifies the programming of the CASE function and allows you to easily define the basic CASE settings once. You can adjust the CASE function with the CASE One Touch settings on the surgical screens. When you use these controls, the CASE functionality changes to provide enhanced control or improved efficiency to suit any particular combination of cataract density, surgical technique or personal preferences. See “CASE One Touch” on page 5-27

RX Only – NGP Z370500 Rev. B 1116 1-8 WHITESTAR SIGNATURE PRO System 1 • Introduction Safety Precautions Once you have set the system up and you have verified that all the functions are operating properly, you are almost ready to use your system. Read the following safety precautions and warnings carefully before you use the system in surgery. 1. Do not use extension cords with your system. 2. Do not overload your electrical receptacle (outlet). 3. If there is damage to the cord or the plug, do not use the instrument. A damaged cable can cause an electric shock to the user or a fire hazard to the system. Call AMO customer service to order a new cord. 4. The instrument has ventilation openings at the rear of the console to allow ambient air intake and the release of heat generated during operation. Do not block the openings; as heat build-up can cause system failures which can result in a fire hazard. 5. Do not try to move the system cart on deep pile carpets or over objects on the floor such as cables and power cords. 6. Take care not to trip over power and foot pedal cords. 7. Do not try to lift the system console. 8. Do not place the instrument on uneven or sloped surfaces. 9. Only use disposables, accessories, or other surgical instruments designed for this system. For optimum performance of the system and safety, use only parts recommended by AMO. 10. Do not operate the system in a condensing environment. Take care to protect the instrument from fluid sprays or fluid buildup. 11. To protect the patient from contaminated fluids or handpieces, use only: • sterile tubing packs • sterile irrigation fluid • sterile handpieces 12. Wrap the excess power cord neatly around the cord wrap on the back of the console. 13. Use caution when you use handpieces with sharp edges or pointed tips. 14. Always replace the tubing pack and the balanced salt solution bottle between cases. Changing Irrigation Flow Use extreme caution when you lower or raise the balanced salt solution bottle to decrease fluid flow or increase fluid flow, and fluid pressure. If you lower the bottle too much it can cause the anterior chamber to collapse or to become too shallow; care should be taken to avoid abrasion of tissues during phacoemulsification. If you raise the bottle too high it can cause the anterior chamber to deepen. To make sure that the bottle height does not go too high, you can set the maximum bottle height on the Configuration screen. See “Setting the Maximum IV Pole Height” on page 6-2. Note: Use a new bottle of balanced salt solution at the start of each case.

RX Only – NGP Z370500 Rev. B 1116 1-9 WHITESTAR SIGNATURE PRO System 1 • Introduction Phacoemulsification without Adequate Irrigation Operating phacoemulsification without an adequate irrigation flow can result in an elevated temperature of the tip and subsequent damage to the eye tissue or could cause the chamber to collapse. Confirm that there is irrigation flow before you initiate phacoemulsification. A tight wound or the angle of the needle next to the wound can also constrict the irrigation flow. Pinching the coaxial irrigation sleeve assembly on the needle of the phaco handpiece causes the constriction. Power Failure during Surgery If there is a loss of power during a procedure, you need to: • Withdraw the handpiece from the eye • Release the foot pedal to position 0 When power is restored: • Disconnect at least one of the luers from the handpiece before you insert the pack. • Insert the pack. • Connect the tubing to the handpiece. • Select Prime/Tune to reprime the fluids and tune the phaco handpiece. Use Bypass to reduce the length of prime time. • Select the mode that was in use when the system lost power (Phaco, I/A, Vitrectomy, or Diathermy) Connecting Handpieces It is very important that the electrical connectors on the handpieces are completely dry before you attach the handpiece to the system receptacles. Handling the Phaco Handpiece The phaco handpiece is a very delicate instrument and you must handle the handpiece with EXTREME care. If you drop the handpiece or the handpiece receives any other significant impact, the handpiece will not work properly. The ultrasonic titanium phaco tip must never touch any solid material while in use. Always clear the handpiece of fluid immediately following surgery. See cleaning instructions in Chapter 7, “Care and Cleaning”. Handpieces can be extremely hot immediately after sterilization. Use care and caution when handling.

RX Only – NGP Z370500 Rev. B 1116 1-10 WHITESTAR SIGNATURE PRO System 1 • Introduction Phaco and Vitrectomy Operation Do not activate the phaco handpiece and the vitrectomy cutter with the tips exposed to air, as this reduces the useful life of the handpiece and the cutter. When you introduce power to the phaco handpiece or the vitrectomy cutter, the tips must be in one of the following: • a test chamber filled with balanced salt solution • in a container of balanced salt solution • in the patient's eye Vitrectomy Failure to properly attach the tubing to the vacuum source or pressure source can affect the vitrectomy cutter operation. Be sure to read the vitrectomy cutter package insert for the correct assembly procedures and connection procedures. Diathermy When you select the Diathermy mode, you hear an audible tone. Also, you will hear an audible tone when you apply diathermy power. You must check the diathermy cable periodically for damage. If the cable shows signs of damage, replace the cable immediately with the same type of cable. Use of other types of cables can affect the diathermy performance. During surgery, the diathermy output power must be as low as possible for the intended purpose. AMO recommends the 30% setting to start. You must position the diathermy cable in such a way that the cable avoids contact with the patient or other leads. When you use diathermy, grounded or ungrounded metal parts must not come in contact with the patient. For proper operation of the diathermy, replace the handpiece with the same type. Programmable IV Pole Do not exceed the maximum weight of two 500 ml balanced salt solution bottles on the IV pole bottle holder. Foot Pedal Never handle the foot pedal by its cable. Do not place the foot pedal on a wet surface.

Wireless remote control storage FUSION Packs Each surgical procedure requires a disposable tubing pack for either the peristaltic pump or the Venturi pump. The FUSION Pack only works with the peristaltic pump used in anterior/cataract surgeries. The FUSION Dual Pump Pack works with both the peristaltic pump and the Venturi pump. With the FUSION Dual Pump Pack you can select either pump while you are in a surgical case. The pack contains the following components: • A pack with irrigation and aspiration tubing (administration set) with an attached, sealed drain bag • Test chamber – to test and prime/tune the phaco handpiece • Mayo tray drape – to cover the Mayo tray and arm • Monitor drape – to cover the front of the touch screen

Drainage Bag Use proper handling and disposal methods for biohazards when you dispose of the tubing pack, Mayo tray drape, and monitor drape. The FUSION Pack (OPO70) allows an inter-connection of the irrigation line to the aspiration line, so that sterile balanced salt solution can enter the aspiration line and has no time restriction for reflux as there is no pump reversal. The FUSION Dual Pump (DP) pack (OPO71) includes support for the vacuum tank used in the Venturi vacuum system but does not support inter-connecting the irrigation line to the aspiration line. Therefore, only previously aspirated fluid is being refluxed.

WHITESTAR SIGNATURE PRO System 2 • System Components RX Only – NGP Z370500 Rev. B 1116 2-5 Foot Pedal The foot pedal controls all of the system functions, therefore, it is essential that you understand the foot pedal operation. The system software automatically detects if a foot pedal is present and what type of foot pedal is attached during start up. The foot pedal settings and adjustments can be selected and preset for all of the foot pedals on the Foot Pedal Setup screen. Instructions for the foot pedal settings are given in “Foot Pedal Setup” on page 4-6. The foot pedal housing incorporates a handle, making the foot pedal easy to grip for repositioning and storage. The foot pedal cable attaches to the foot pedal connector on the rear of the console. The Advanced Control Pedal and the Advanced Linear Pedal can also be set up with a wireless connection. Four to six minutes after the system is shut down and power is turned off, both of the wireless foot pedals go into a power-save mode. • To activate the Advanced Control Pedal after you start up the system, touch the wake-up button on the foot pedal. • To wake-up the Advanced Linear Pedal after you start up the system, tap the pedal. After two hours, when the system is on and the foot pedal switches and treadle are inactive, the foot pedal goes into a power-save mode: Note: You must NEVER handle the foot pedal by the cable.

RX Only – NGP Z370500 Rev. B 1116 3-11 WHITESTAR SIGNATURE PRO System 3 • Surgery Start Up Prime/Tune You must prime/tune: • before each procedure • anytime you reattach the phaco handpiece • after you have inserted or replaced a tubing pack WARNING: Do not have the handpiece tip in the eye of the patient when you prime and tune the handpiece. The prime/tune process fills the I/A tubing with fluid, performs a vacuum check, and tests and characterizes the phaco handpiece. You can select Continuous Irrigation to allow fluid to free flow from the bottle to collect fluid. The design of I/A Prime allows for a procedure that does not require a phaco handpiece. The design of tune allows for a quick tune of the phaco handpiece with an I/A tubing set. You can use tune if you replace a phaco tip during a procedure. You can shorten the overall prime sequence by selecting Bypass prime. You also reduce the time to prime the system. You can use Bypass if you used Continuous Irrigation or primed the I/A tubing. If you do not properly prime the I/A tubing, errors can occur. To access the prime/tune routines, press the Prime/Tune button. The console shows the Prime/Tune screen with all the prime and tune options. Note: Prime/Tune is a combination of tune followed by an I/A prime.

If the system needs to be tuned again (new tip, failed tune), you only need to select and run the tune. CAUTION: DO NOT ACTIVATE THE PHACO HANDPIECE AND VITRECTOMY CUTTER WITH THE TIP IN THE AIR. EXPOSURE OF THE TIP TO AIR DRASTICALLY REDUCES THE USEFUL LIFE OF THE HANDPIECE. IF YOU INTRODUCE POWER TO THE PHACO HANDPIECE OR VITRECTOMY CUTTER, THE TIP MUST BE IN A TEST CHAMBER FILLED WITH BALANCED SALT SOLUTION, IN A CONTAINER OF BALANCED SALT SOLUTION, OR IN THE PATIENT’S EYE.

RX Only – NGP Z370500 Rev. B 1116 3-13 WHITESTAR SIGNATURE PRO System 3 • Surgery Start Up Suggestions for Priming the Handpieces Do not lay the handpiece and the empty test chamber down and have the system fill the test chamber. When you lay down the handpiece, this allows air to collect in the test chamber and can produce an error. Point the tip of the handpiece up to reduce the amount of bubbles. 1. Use Continuous Irrigation to fill the tubing with fluid. Remember to hold the ends of the tubing over a container to catch any fluid. 2. Use the Cup Fill feature to fill the test chamber with fluid and to eliminate all air. Remember to remove the test chamber from the handpiece, if needed, before you start the cup fill process. 3. Place the test chamber over the handpiece tip and the sleeve hub. 4. Attach the tubing to the handpiece. 5. Press the Prime/Tune button, this starts the prime and tune sequences. • To perform a prime only, press the Prime button. • To perform a tune only, press the Tune button. 6. Make sure that low ceilings, light fixtures, or equipment do not block the movement of the IV pole. 7. Watch the fluid fill the drip chamber. The fluid moves toward the handpiece and fills the test chamber. 8. The display screen indicates the progress of the prime and tune process. 9. As the tubing lines fill, the system software performs functional checks. The checks include: • Monitoring for the presence of irrigation flow (bottle height) • Leaks (via vacuum rise checks) 10. When you attach the phaco handpiece and you select Prime/Tune or Tune, the system automatically includes a handpiece tuning test concurrently with the prime cycle. • At the end of the priming sequence, the system makes an audible sound to indicate that Prime process is complete. • At the end of the phaco tuning test, the system makes an audible alert sound to indicate that Tune process is complete. 11. To discontinue prime or tune during the process, select Cancel. 12. When prime and tune are complete, the system automatically proceeds to the preprogrammed submode or Phaco 1 operating mode. It is important that you verify the Irrigation and Aspiration balance prior to operating.
