No
The device description focuses on mechanical and optical components for endoscopic visualization and dissection, with no mention of AI/ML capabilities or data processing beyond visualization.
No.
This device is an endoscopic vessel harvesting system used for surgical access, dissection, and removal of blood vessels (e.g., saphenous vein, radial artery) for use in bypass grafting. It is a surgical tool, not a therapeutic device that directly treats a condition or disease.
No
The device is intended for surgical procedures such as vessel harvesting and blunt dissection, not for diagnosis. The endoscope is used for visualization during surgery, which supports the surgical procedure rather than providing diagnostic information.
No
The device description explicitly lists six physical hardware components, including a trocar, endoscope, cannulas, and scissors. There is no mention of software being the primary or sole component.
Based on the provided information, the Guidant Vaso View® Endoscopic Vessel harvesting system is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes a surgical system used for minimally invasive surgery to harvest vessels from the body for use in arterial bypass procedures. This is an in vivo procedure, meaning it is performed within a living organism.
- Device Description: The components described are surgical instruments (trocar, endoscope, cannulas, scissors, dissector) designed for accessing, visualizing, dissecting, ligating, and cutting tissue during surgery.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens (blood, tissue, etc.) outside of the body to provide diagnostic information. IVD devices are used to perform tests on samples taken from the body.
In summary, the Vaso View system is a surgical device used for a therapeutic procedure (vessel harvesting), not a diagnostic device used for testing samples in vitro.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Guidant Vaso View® Endoscopic Vessel harvesting system is indicated for use in minimally invasive surgery allowing access for vessel harvesting, and is primarily indicated for patients undergoing endoscopic surgery for arterial bypass. It is indicated for patients requiring blunt dissection of tissue including dissection of blood vessels, separation of the extraperitoneal or subcutaneous extremity and thoracic space. Extremity procedures include tissection along the saphenous vein or radial artery for use in coronary artery bypass grafting. Thorascopic procedures include exposure and dissection of structures external to the parietal pleura, including nerves, blood vessels, and other tissues of the chest wall.

Device Description
The VasoView System is made up of 6 components including:
-
- Blunt Tip Trocar (BTT) with Syringe,
-
- 5 mm Extended Length Endoscope,
-
- Uniport Plus Dissection Cannula,
-
- VasoView Dissection Cannula,
-
- Uniport BiSector and
-
- Uniport Bipolar Scissors.
These are the exact same devices used for saphenous vein harvesting and have been previously cleared by FDA.
BTT: The BTT is a single use device provided sterile. The BTT is used to provide a port of access for insertion of endoscopic instruments into an incision site. The device consists of a valve body assembly with a balloon on the sleeve. The valve body assembly contains an internal flapper valve and seal to prevent gas leakage when instruments are inserted or withdrawn. It also includes built-in converters to allow insertion of instruments of different diameters than the main seal and an external one-way valve for gas insufflation. To minimize leakage and secure the port, the distal end of the sleeve has a balloon. A 30cc syringe is provided for inflation/deflation of the balloon.
5mm Extended Length Endoscope: The 5mm Extended Length Endoscope is a multi-use product supplied non-sterile and must be cleaned and sterilized prior to use. The device is used to visualize endoscopic cavities. It consists of a stainless steel shaft containing optics. The proximal end has an eyepiece, for camera attachment, and a light cable post for light cable connection.
Uniport Plus Dissection Cannula: The Uniport Plus Dissection Cannula is a single use device provided sterile. The Uniport Plus Dissection Cannula is designed to be used in conjunction with the 5mm Extended Length Endoscope. The cannula has a removable conical tip and four lumens to house the endoscopes, vessel cradle/distal lens washer and bipolar instrument for ligation and division of vessel branches. The vessel cradle/distal lens washer is independently controlled by a slider button on the handle of the device for retraction and blunt dissection of tissue as well as washing of the distal tip of the scope. The bipolar instrument is inserted independently into the cannula and can be controlled at the proximal end for blunt dissection.
Dissection System: The Dissection System is a single-use device provided sterile. It is designed to be used in conjunction with a 5mm Extended Length Endoscope. The cannula has a tapered tip for tunneling, which separates tissue planes, forming a cavity. The cannula tip may also be used for dissection and isolation of structures in the cavity. This tip is clear for endoscopic visualization during tunneling. An elliptical bulb aid tissue separation. A handle is provided to assist with advancement of the cannula.
Uniport BiSector: The Uniport BiSector is a single use device provided sterile. The Uniport BiSector is a 5mm flexible endoscopic ligating forcep and is intended to be used with the Uniport Dissection Cannula. Bipolar coagulation is achieved using electro surgical energy under endoscopic visualization. Transection is achieved through mechanical actuation of the slide button. This device is intended to be used with the bipolar outputs of compatible generators.
Bipolar Scissors: The Bipolar Scissors are a single use device provided sterile. The Bipolar Scissors are 5mm cutting and bipolar coagulation scissors and are intended to be used with the Dissection Cannulas. Mechanical cutting and bipolar coagulation is achieved using electrosurgical energy under endoscopic visualization. This device is intended to be used with the bipolar outputs of compatible generators.
