The summary describes a mechanical surgical device for tissue separation and does not mention any computational or analytical capabilities that would suggest AI/ML.
No.
A therapeutic device intends to treat or cure a disease or condition. This device is used to create an entry path for other surgical instruments and does not itself treat or cure a condition.
No
The Optical Separator is described as a device used to establish a path of entry for endoscopic instruments during minimally invasive surgical procedures, separating tissue. It does not perform any diagnostic function such as identifying a disease or condition.
No
The device description clearly states it is a "sterile single use device" and describes physical components like size and length, indicating it is a hardware device.
Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device is for establishing a path of entry for endoscopic instruments during surgical procedures. This is a surgical tool used in vivo (within the body).
- Device Description: The description details a physical device used for dilating and separating tissue during surgery.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue samples) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment.
IVD devices are used to perform tests in vitro (outside the body) on biological samples. This device is used in vivo during surgery.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Optical Separator is a sterile single use device, intended for use in conjunction with Applied's currently marketed Trocar products to establish a path of entry for endoscopic instruments for use during general, abdominal, gynecological and thoracic minimally invasive procedures or to gain access through tissue planes and/or potential spaces for endoscopic instruments. The Optical Separator may be used with or without visualization for primary and secondary insertions.

Device Description
The Optical Separator is a sterile single use device, intended for use in conjunction with Applied's currently marketed Trocar products. A standard trocar assembly consists of an obturator, a seal and a cannula system. Traditional obturators use a blade for cutting to establish a path of entry through the several layers of tissue. The Optical Separator dilates and separates tissue along its natural fiber lines in its path of entry.
The Optical Separator will be available in sizes of 5mm, 8mm, 11mm and 12mm diameter and in lengths ranging from 55mm to 150mm.
The use of the Optical Separator, which separates tissue along its natural fibers versus cutting of tissue by traditional bladed trocars is expected to reduce trauma to vessels and the abdominal wall and minimize the risk of organ puncture. Upon removal of the trocar at the end of the procedure the separated tissue is expected to reapproximate, leaving a smaller, linear defect.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
The performance and functional testing of the Optical Separator included tests to verify the insertion force and tests to verify its reliability and visualization during use. The performance and functional testing demonstrated that the Optical Separator is substantially equivalent to its predicate devices and it introduces no new safety and effectiveness issues when used as instructed.

§ 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.
