The CorLink AAS is indicated for creation of an anastomosis between a venous graft conduit and the aorta for coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). The Coring punch component penetrates the aorta and cuts a circumferential aortotomy in which the implanted device will be deployed.
Device Description
This 510(k) notification describes the CorLink™ Automated Anastomotic Device indicated for creation of an anastomosis between a venous graft conduit and the aorta for coronary artery bypass grafting. The Coring punch device is intended for creating the aortotomy in which the implanted device will be deployed. The major differences between the two systems are: 1. The Piercing Tip and the Tissue Grabber are in one piece in the modified coring punch 2. Tissue Grabber button was replaced by an automatic Tissue Grabber activation button component 3. The Tissue Grabber in the modified coring punch contains 3 barbs instead of 2 as in the 510k cleared coring punch design 4. The Cylinder Cutting Edge diameter will range from 2.5 mm to 3.6 mm and from 2.9 mm to 4.0 mm in the 2.0 mm and 4.0 mm size kits (in 0.1 mm increments each), respectively. 5. The modified coring punch is single use only, whereas the 510(k) cleared coring punch was for single patient use.

No
The summary describes a mechanical device for creating surgical connections and does not mention any computational or data-driven components indicative of AI/ML.

No
The device is used to create an anastomosis for coronary artery bypass grafting, which is a surgical procedure to treat coronary artery disease rather than a therapeutic treatment in itself.

No

The device is an automated anastomotic device used for creating an anastomosis between a venous graft conduit and the aorta for coronary artery bypass grafting. Its purpose is surgical, not diagnostic.

No

The device description clearly details physical components like a "Coring punch component," "Piercing Tip," "Tissue Grabber," "Tissue Grabber button," and "Cylinder Cutting Edge," indicating it is a hardware device used in a surgical procedure.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for creating an anastomosis (connection) between a venous graft and the aorta during coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). This is a surgical procedure performed directly on the patient's body.
  • Device Description: The device is a mechanical tool (a coring punch) used to create an opening in the aorta. It is a surgical instrument.
  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to detect diseases, conditions, or infections. They are used outside of the body.

This device is clearly a surgical instrument used in vivo (within the living body) during a surgical procedure, not a test performed on a sample in vitro (in a lab setting).

Device Description

The Coring punch device is intended for creating the aortotomy in which the implanted device will be deployed.
The major differences between the two systems are:
l. The Piercing Tip and the Tissue Grabber are in one piece in the modified coring punch
2. Tissue Grabber button was replaced by an automatic Tissue Grabber activation button component
The Tissue Grabber in the modified coring punch contains 3 barbs instead of 2 3. as in the 510k cleared coring punch design
4. The Cylinder Cutting Edge diameter will range from 2.5 mm to 3.6 mm and from 2.9 mm to 4.0 mm in the 2.0 mm and 4.0 mm size kits (in 0.1 mm increments each), respectively.
The modified coring punch is single use only, whereas the 510(k) cleared 5. coring punch was for single patient use.
The improvement in the punch mechanism does not require any design, structural, or dimensional changes to the Handle, the Inserter, Sizer and the Implant.

510(k) Summary of Safety and Effectiveness ByPass LTD, CorLink™ Automated Anastomotic System 510(k) Number_K033979

This 510(k) notification is submitted by ByPass LTD.3 Hasadnaot St.Herzelia B 46728 Israel

The contact person is Amir Loshakove, General Manager.

This 510(k) notification describes the CorLink™ Automated Anastomotic Device indicated for creation of an anastomosis between a venous graft conduit and the aorta for coronary artery bypass grafting. The Coring punch device is intended for creating the aortotomy in which the implanted device will be deployed.

The Coring punch device is equivalent to the punch already cleared as a component of the CorLinkTM AAS (K020470) with respect to intended use. The major differences between the two systems are:

l. The Piercing Tip and the Tissue Grabber are in one piece in the modified coring punch

  1. Tissue Grabber button was replaced by an automatic Tissue Grabber activation button component

The Tissue Grabber in the modified coring punch contains 3 barbs instead of 2 3. as in the 510k cleared coring punch design

  1. The Cylinder Cutting Edge diameter will range from 2.5 mm to 3.6 mm and from 2.9 mm to 4.0 mm in the 2.0 mm and 4.0 mm size kits (in 0.1 mm increments each), respectively.

The modified coring punch is single use only, whereas the 510(k) cleared 5. coring punch was for single patient use.

The improvement in the punch mechanism does not require any design, structural, or dimensional changes to the Handle, the Inserter, Sizer and the Implant.

Information on risk analysis of the modifications and performance testing provided in the application demonstrates equivalence to the predicate device with respect to performance.

Based on the performance data gathered, the device modifications do not raise any new questions of safety or effectiveness.

Based on the information provided the modification of the CorLink™ AAS to include the Coring punch is substantially equivalent to the cleared CorLink™MAAS using the punch with respect to intended use, technological characteristics, and performance.
