The device description and performance studies focus on mechanical function and material properties, with no mention of AI/ML terms or capabilities.
No
The device is an endoscopic stapler used for approximating soft tissues and fixating surgical mesh, which is a structural or surgical tool rather than a device intended to treat or cure a disease or condition.
No
Explanation: The device is described as an endoscopic stapler used for approximation of soft tissues and fixation of surgical mesh. Its function is to perform a surgical procedure (stapling), not to diagnose a condition or disease.
No
The device description clearly outlines physical components like a handle, trigger, shaft, needle, and fixation devices, indicating it is a hardware-based medical device.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device is for "approximation of soft tissues and fixation of surgical mesh to tissues during laparoscopic surgical procedures such as hernia repair." This describes a surgical procedure performed directly on the patient's body.
- Device Description: The description details a mechanical stapler and resorbable fixation devices used to physically attach tissues and mesh. This is a surgical instrument, not a device used to examine specimens from the body.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to analyze biological samples (blood, urine, tissue samples, etc.) or to provide diagnostic information based on such analysis.
IVD devices are used in vitro (outside the body) to examine specimens and provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. The PARIEFIX Endoscopic Stapler is used in vivo (inside the body) during a surgical procedure.

Device Description
The PARIEFIX device is an Endoscopic Stapler composed of a disposable delivery instrument and resorbable fixation devices. The PARIEFIX Delivery Instrument consists of an ergonomic handle, trigger, locking/unlocking mechanism, rotation knob, shaft containing ten fixation devices, and retractable hollow needle. The trigger, locking/unlocking mechanism, rotation knob, and hollow needle all function in the delivery of the fixation device to the tissue. A visual marker at the distal tip of the shaft indicates the position of the retractable needle to aid in placement of the fixation device. The resorbable fixation device consists of a connection pin, which connects the distal anchoring tip to the proximal tip. The distal anchoring tip penetrates the biological tissues and, after back and forth motion, is anchored into the tissues. The proximal tip anchors the mesh to the biological tissues.

§ 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.

TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS AND SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE 6.
The PARIEFIX Resorbable Fixation Device material is identical to that described in K970879 for the cleared Phusis® Absorbable Interference Screw.
The PARIEFIX device is substantially equivalent to the Ethicon Endopath® EMS and the Origin Tacker® system. The PARIEFIX device, the Ethicon Endopath® EMS, and the Origin Tacker® system have the same intended use in that they are all used for surgical mesh fixation via laparoscopic approach. All of the devices consist of a disposable endoscopic stapler delivering ten or more implantable fixation devices.
PERFORMANCE TESTING 7.
Testing was performed to determine the performance characteristics of the PARIEFIX Resorbable Fixation Devices in comparison with the predicate devices. The test results showed that the Sofradim and predicate devices were similar in performance characteristics.
