Intended Use
The CA-Guard Irrigating Cannula is intended to provide an access port to body cavities for endoscopes and endoscopic accessories when intraoperative irrigation or infusion of trocar wound surfaces is desired. The cannula has been tested for compatibility with lidocaine and marcane. Saline and water may also be used as irrigants. The CA-Guard Irrigating Cannula is inherently a needleless system and therefore, minimizes the possibility of "needle sticks" for healthcare workers, in accordance with the Needlestick Safety and Prevention Act of 2000.
Device Description
The Irrigating Cannula is a non-toxic, sterile, single use, disposable surgical access port. The device is intended to be inserted percutaneously into the peritoneal cavity to provide access for endoscopic instruments. The cannula is intended to replace the cannula that is supplied with the United States Surgical Versaport® 11mm Trocar System. The proximal end of the cannula is equipped with a female luer connector. The luer communicates with 6 longitudinal grooves on the surface of the inner member of the cannula. The inner member is covered with polyolefin shrink tubing. An array of twenty-four (24) holes deliver infusate to the compromised tissue surfaces of the trocar wound.
More Information

No
The 510(k) summary describes a purely mechanical surgical access port with irrigation capabilities. There is no mention of any software, data processing, or algorithmic functions that would indicate the presence of AI or ML.

No
The device is described as an irrigating cannula used to provide access for endoscopic instruments and irrigate trocar wound surfaces. Its function is to facilitate medical procedures and introduce fluids, not to directly treat a disease or condition.

No

The device is an irrigating cannula used to provide access for endoscopes and to irrigate or infuse trocar wound surfaces, which is a therapeutic rather than a diagnostic function.

No

The device description clearly describes a physical, disposable surgical access port made of materials like polyolefin shrink tubing, with a luer connector and holes for irrigation. This is a hardware device, not software.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to provide an access port to body cavities for endoscopes and endoscopic accessories and for intraoperative irrigation or infusion. This is a surgical access device used during a procedure on the patient's body.
  • Device Description: The description details a surgical access port inserted percutaneously into the peritoneal cavity. It's a physical device used for surgical access and delivery of fluids.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Purpose: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. IVDs are typically used to test samples like blood, urine, tissue, etc., outside the body.

The device is a surgical instrument used for access and irrigation during endoscopic procedures, not for in vitro diagnostic testing.

(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.

Identification of a Legally Marketed Predicate Device

The Irrigating Cannula is substantially equivalent to the cannula manufactured and marketed by the United States Surgical Corporation as part of the Versaport® Trocar System pursuant to 510(k) K954108.

General Description

The Irrigating Cannula is a non-toxic, sterile, single use, disposable surgical access port. The device is intended to be inserted percutaneously into the peritoneal cavity to provide access for endoscopic instruments. The cannula is intended to replace the cannula that is supplied with the United States Surgical Versaport® 11mm Trocar System.

The proximal end of the cannula is equipped with a female luer connector. The luer communicates with 6 longitudinal grooves on the surface of the inner member of the cannula. The inner member is covered with polyolefin shrink tubing. An array of twenty-four (24) holes deliver infusate to the compromised tissue surfaces of the trocar wound.

Intended Use

The CA-Guard Irrigating Cannula is intended to provide an access port to body cavities for endoscopes and endoscopic accessories when intraoperative irrigation or infusion of trocar wound surfaces is desired. The cannula has been tested for compatibility with lidocaine and marcane. Saline and water may also be used as irrigants. The CA-Guard Irrigating Cannula is inherently a needleless system and therefore, minimizes the possibility of "needle sticks" for healthcare workers, in accordance with the Needlestick Safety and Prevention Act of 2000.

The CA Guard Irrigating Cannula is designed to be mechanically compatible with all components of the United States Surgical Versaport® 11mm Trocar System using the 5 mm PLUS SEAL.

Summary of Technological Characteristics

The Irrigating Cannula was compared to the predicate device using 14 points of comparison and found to be equivalent.

Summary of Performance Data

Performance of the device was characcterized and compared to that of the predicate utilizing 5 tests. Additionally, the cannula was tested for compatibility with the indicated infusates. The tests demonstrated the Irrigating Cannula is substantially equivalent to the masula manufactured and marketed by the United States Surgical Corporation as part of the Versaport® Trocar System pursuant to 510(k) K954108. The materials of construction have been carefully selected for their long history of biocompatibility.

Since the Irrigating Cannula embodies technological characteristics essentially identical to those of the predicate device, we believe the device is safe and effective and that it performs as well as or better than the predicate device. The device has been designed and developed utilizing design control methods in compliance with the QSR. The Irrigating Cannula will be manufactured per specifications and good manufacturing practices that ensure the device is safe and effective for its intended use.
