The summary describes a reprocessed mechanical surgical instrument (trocar) and does not mention any software, algorithms, or AI/ML capabilities.
No
The device provides a pathway for surgical instruments but does not directly treat or prevent a disease or condition.
No
The device description states its purpose is to provide a pathway for entry of surgical instruments and does not mention any function related to diagnosing a condition or disease.
No
The device description explicitly states it is a "reprocessed endoscopic trocar," which is a physical surgical instrument, not software.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is used to "provide a pathway for entry of minimally invasive instruments to a body organ or cavity during general, abdominal, thoracic, gynecologic or other minimally invasive surgical procedures." This describes a surgical tool used in vivo (within the body) for surgical access.
- Device Description: The description further reinforces this by detailing its function in providing a pathway for instruments used for observation, dissecting, cutting, repairing, removal, or manipulation of internal tissues and organs. These are all surgical actions performed directly on the patient.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens in vitro (outside the body), such as blood, urine, tissue samples, etc., to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
IVD devices are specifically designed to perform tests on samples taken from the body to provide diagnostic or other health-related information. This device is a surgical instrument used directly on the patient during a procedure.

Device Description
Reprocessed endoscopic trocars are devices that provide a pathway for entry of minimally invasive instruments to a body organ or cavity during general, abdominal, thoracic, gynecologic or other minimally invasive surgical procedures such as observation, dissecting, cutting, repairing, and removal or manipulation of internal tissues and/or organs. Reprocessed endoscopic trocars are of varying lengths and diameters, and may have either a blunt or bladed obturator tip.

§ 876.1500 Endoscope and accessories.
(a)
Identification. An endoscope and accessories is a device used to provide access, illumination, and allow observation or manipulation of body cavities, hollow organs, and canals. The device consists of various rigid or flexible instruments that are inserted into body spaces and may include an optical system for conveying an image to the user's eye and their accessories may assist in gaining access or increase the versatility and augment the capabilities of the devices. Examples of devices that are within this generic type of device include cleaning accessories for endoscopes, photographic accessories for endoscopes, nonpowered anoscopes, binolcular attachments for endoscopes, pocket battery boxes, flexible or rigid choledochoscopes, colonoscopes, diagnostic cystoscopes, cystourethroscopes, enteroscopes, esophagogastroduodenoscopes, rigid esophagoscopes, fiberoptic illuminators for endoscopes, incandescent endoscope lamps, biliary pancreatoscopes, proctoscopes, resectoscopes, nephroscopes, sigmoidoscopes, ureteroscopes, urethroscopes, endomagnetic retrievers, cytology brushes for endoscopes, and lubricating jelly for transurethral surgical instruments. This section does not apply to endoscopes that have specialized uses in other medical specialty areas and that are covered by classification regulations in other parts of the device classification regulations.(b)
Classification —(1)Class II (special controls). The device, when it is an endoscope disinfectant basin, which consists solely of a container that holds disinfectant and endoscopes and accessories; an endoscopic magnetic retriever intended for single use; sterile scissors for cystoscope intended for single use; a disposable, non-powered endoscopic grasping/cutting instrument intended for single use; a diagnostic incandescent light source; a fiberoptic photographic light source; a routine fiberoptic light source; an endoscopic sponge carrier; a xenon arc endoscope light source; an endoscope transformer; an LED light source; or a gastroenterology-urology endoscopic guidewire, is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 876.9.(2) Class I for the photographic accessories for endoscope, miscellaneous bulb adapter for endoscope, binocular attachment for endoscope, eyepiece attachment for prescription lens, teaching attachment, inflation bulb, measuring device for panendoscope, photographic equipment for physiologic function monitor, special lens instrument for endoscope, smoke removal tube, rechargeable battery box, pocket battery box, bite block for endoscope, and cleaning brush for endoscope. The devices subject to this paragraph (b)(2) are exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807of this chapter, subject to the limitations in § 876.9.

Re: K012578 - Supplemental Validation Submission Trade/Device Name: Reprocessed Laparoscope General and Plastic Surgery (See enclosed list)
Regulation Number: 21 CFR 876.1500 Regulation Name: Endoscope and Accessories Regulatory Class: II Product Code: NLM Dated: August 7, 2001 Received: August 9, 2001
Dear Dr. Lester:
The above-referenced premarket notification (510(k)) was cleared by the Office of Device Evaluation (ODE) on November 7, 2001. We have received your supplemental validation data as required for reprocessed single-use devices by the Medical Device User Fee and Modernization Act of 2002. After reviewing your supplemental validation data, we have determined the devices listed in the enclosure accompanying this letter are substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market these devices, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.
If your devices are classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA) they may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your devices in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your devices comply with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's applicable requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807): labeling (21 CFR Part 801): good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your devices to legally marketed predicate devices results in classification for your devices and thus, permits you to legally market the devices. This letter will allow you to continue marketing the devices listed in the enclosure accompanying this letter.
If you desire specific advice for your devices on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801), please contact the Office of Compliance at 240-276-0115. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21CFR Part 807.97). You may obtain other general information on your responsibilities under the Act from the Division of Small Manufacturers, International and Consumer Assistance at its toll-free number (800) 638-2041 or (301) 443-6597 or at its Internet address http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/dsma/dsmamain.html.
