Intended Use
The modified Laparoshield Conditioned Insufflation Set ("Laparoshield") is intended to be used as an accessory to an insufflator to heat, humidify and filter a gas stream used for insufflation during laparoscopic surgery. It is indicated for use with CO2.
Device Description
The modified Laparoshield consists of a length of silicon coated heating wire coiled in the insufflation tubing. Heating control is performed by a constant voltage/voltage limited power supply. The patient end of the heater wire is encased in a hydrating wick. Gas flows through the annulus created by the wick and outer tubing. The proximity of the heating wire and hydrated wick produce warms and humidifies CO2 from the insufflator. A temperature strip indicates under, normal, and over temperature conditions. The set has a universal connector for compatibility with insufflation machines with Luer, 15mm/22mm ISO 5356-1 and hose-barb gas ports and a trocar.

No
The device description focuses on hardware components (heating wire, power supply, wick) and basic temperature control. There is no mention of AI, ML, or any data-driven algorithms for control or analysis.

No
The device is an accessory to an insufflator, used to heat, humidify, and filter a gas stream for insufflation during laparoscopic surgery. It modifies the gas for a procedure but does not directly treat a disease or condition itself.

No
Explanation: The device is described as an accessory to an insufflator that heats, humidifies, and filters a gas stream. Its function is to prepare gas for insufflation, and it does not perform any diagnostic measurements or analysis of the patient's condition.

No

The device description clearly outlines physical components such as heating wire, power supply, tubing, wick, temperature strip, and connectors, indicating it is a hardware device with electrical and mechanical components, not software only.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This testing is done outside of the body.
  • Device Function: The Laparoshield is used during laparoscopic surgery to condition the gas used for insufflation. It directly interacts with the patient's body cavity by delivering the conditioned gas.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's an accessory to an insufflator for use during laparoscopic surgery.

The device's function and intended use are entirely focused on supporting a surgical procedure performed on the patient, not on analyzing samples taken from the patient.

The text is somewhat faded and has a rough, textured appearance, suggesting it may be a scan or copy of an original document. The signature is illegible, but it seems to contain a combination of loops, curves, and possibly some distinct letterforms.

Technological Characteristics

The modified Laparoshield consists of a length of silicon coated heating wire coiled in the insufflation tubing. Heating control is performed by a constant voltage/voltage limited power supply. The patient end of the heater wire is encased in a hydrating wick. Gas flows through the annulus created by the wick and outer tubing. The proximity of the heating wire and hydrated wick produce warms and humidifies CO2 from the insufflator. A temperature strip indicates under, normal, and over temperature conditions. The set has a universal connector for compatibility with insufflation machines with Luer, 15mm/22mm ISO 5356-1 and hose-barb gas ports and a trocar.

Performance Data

Testing was performed to evaluate the temperature and humidity output at two different per minute average CO2 flow rates. In all instances, the modified Laparoshield met its performance specifications.

Substantial Equivalence

The modified Laparoshield and the cleared Laparoshield have the same intended use, which is as an accessory to an insufflator to heat, humidify and filter a gas stream used for insufflation during laparoscopic surgery. The devices are identical except for their heating control features and a material in two components. These minor technological differences do not present new issues of safety or effectiveness. Moreover, bench tests show that the modified Laparoshield is as safe and effective as the cleared Laparoshield, which has the same performance specifications. Thus, the modified Laparoshield is substantially equivalent.
