Intended Use
The LAPARETTE is intended for use in minimally invasive surgery, including laparoscopy, to cut tissue and control bleeding by use of high-frequency electrical current, irrigate tissue and cavities, as well as suction fluids from the wound. This device is not intended for use in tubal sterilisation procedures.
Device Description
The LAPARETTE is a hybrid device consisting of three reusable component (Protective sheath, Electrode-Cannula, and Insulated Sleeve) and one single use component(Cartridge and Handle all together). All LAPARETTE components are supplied non sterile, requiring sterilization by health care facility before first use and reuse of the reusable components. The LAPARETTE is sold as a set. The only option possible for the customer is the form of the cautery tip.
More Information

No
The summary explicitly states "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML: Not Found" and the device description focuses on mechanical and electrical components for surgical functions.

No.
Explanation: The device is intended for use in minimally invasive surgery to cut tissue, control bleeding, irrigate, and suction fluids. These actions are surgical interventions, not therapeutic treatments in themselves, but rather tools used during a surgical procedure. It does not provide a direct therapy to treat a disease or improve health condition.

No
The device is described as an instrument for cutting tissue, controlling bleeding, irrigating, and suctioning during surgery, not for diagnosing conditions.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "hybrid device consisting of three reusable component and one single use component," which are physical hardware components.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the LAPARETTE is used in minimally invasive surgery to cut tissue, control bleeding, irrigate, and suction fluids. This is a direct interaction with the patient's body during a surgical procedure.
  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, tissue samples) outside of the body to provide information about a person's health.

The LAPARETTE is a surgical instrument used in vivo (within the living body), not in vitro (in glass/outside the body).

    1. BASIS FOR SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE: Instruments médicaux G.B. Inc. makes the claim of substantial equivalence to the above devices based on intended use, design considerations, and general operating characteristics. Also, the LAPARETTE of Instruments Médicaux G.B. inc. is exactly the same because the patent and ownership has been transfer from RD CHUS inc. to Instruments Médicaux G.B. Inc.
      All two devices share the same intended use of electrocautery, irrigation, and suction using the same instrument. All two products are designated for monopolar use only. While the RD CHUS LAPARETTE was sold non sterile, Instruments Médicaux G.B. Inc. will sell it non sterile but nine time reusable. The recommended sterilization technique for the LAPARETTE is ethylene oxide sterilization. The RD CHUS LAPARETTE has the possibilities to be sold separately from the accessories, the LAPARETTE from
