No
The device description focuses on a mechanical/hydraulic suture delivery system and does not mention any computational or data-driven components indicative of AI/ML. The performance studies are also focused on material and mechanical properties, not algorithmic performance.
No
The device is a surgical tool that deploys sutures to assist in creating vascular anastomoses; it does not directly treat or restore health.
No
The device is described as a surgical tool used to deploy sutures for creating vascular anastomoses, rather than to diagnose medical conditions.
No
The device description clearly states it is a "hand-held surgical device" with a "hydraulic delivery mechanism" and mentions "hardware components" and "functional bench testing" related to physical aspects like "suture deployment" and "attachment strength of critical components." This indicates it is a physical medical device, not software-only.
Based on the provided information, the Abbott Vascular Suture Anastomosis Device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to "assist the surgeon in the creation of vascular anastomoses" by delivering sutures. This is a surgical procedure performed in vivo (within the living body), not a test performed in vitro (outside the body, typically on biological samples).
- Device Description: The device is described as a "hand-held surgical device" that deploys sutures. This aligns with a surgical tool, not a diagnostic test.
- Lack of Diagnostic Function: There is no mention of the device being used to analyze biological samples (blood, tissue, etc.) or provide diagnostic information about a patient's condition. Its function is purely mechanical and procedural.
IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. The Abbott Vascular Suture Anastomosis Device does not fit this description.

Device Description
The Abbott Vascular Suture Anastomosis Device is a hand-held surgical device that simultaneously deploys 10 lengths of 7-0 polypropylene suture at the site of a vascular anastomosis via a hydraulic delivery mechanism. The Abbott Vascular Suture Anastomosis Device is available in two models for creating either side-to-side or end-to-side anastomoses. After deployment of the device, the surgeon completes the anastomosis by hand-tying the appropriate surgical knots. Optional accessories available for use with the Abbott Vascular Suture Anastomosis (AVSA) Device include the Heartflo Scissors and the Heartflo Handle.
The Abbott Vascular Suture Anastomosis Device is a prescription device, restricted to use by physicians trained in vascular surgery.
The Abbott Vascular Suture Anastomosis Device is EtO sterilized and nonpyrogenic in an unopened undamaged package, for single use only.

§ 878.5010 Nonabsorbable polypropylene surgical suture.
(a)
Identification. Nonabsorbable polypropylene surgical suture is a monofilament, nonabsorbable, sterile, flexible thread prepared from long-chain polyolefin polymer known as polypropylene and is indicated for use in soft tissue approximation. The polypropylene surgical suture meets United States Pharmacopeia (U.S.P.) requirements as described in the U.S.P. Monograph for Nonabsorbable Surgical Sutures; it may be undyed or dyed with an FDA approved color additive; and the suture may be provided with or without a standard needle attached.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The special control for this device is FDA's “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Surgical Sutures; Guidance for Industry and FDA.” See § 878.1(e) for the availability of this guidance document.

Dear Ms. Hevey:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to 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 the device, 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 device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it 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 device 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 device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies.
