DEVICE DESCRIPTION
The Motiva Flora® Port Locator is a non-invasive electronic medical device that interacts
exclusively with the Motiva Flora® Tissue Expander product family to locate the injection
port within the tissue expander. Motiva Flora® Port Locator uses a radiofrequency
identication (RFID) wireless system comprising two components: tags and readers. The
Motiva Flora® Port Locator (reader) has an antenna that emits radio waves and receives
signals back from the RFID tag.
