Intended Use
The Medtronic Octopus TE Stabilizer is used to stabilize the epicardial surface of the non-arrested heart during coronary artery surgery. It is intended to be used by trained medical professionals in operating room environments. The Stabilizer is intended to stabilize the epicardial surface of the nonarrested heart during coronary artery surgery. It is intended to be used only by medical professionals in operating room environments.
Device Description
The non-sterile, reusable Medtronic Octopus TE Heart Stabilizing System is a suction-based tissue stabilizer with a collapsible pod assembly, a rigid shaft and 5 articulating links designed to enable transfer into the thoracic cavity via a 12 mm thoracic port or traditional sternotomy access. It is comprised of four distinct elements: (1) the Medtronic Octopus TE Tissue Stabilizer, (2) the Medtronic Octopus TE Suction Lines, (3) the Medtronic Octopus TE Vacuum Lines, and (4) the Medtronic Octopus TE Irrigator (optional). The Medtronic Octopus TE Heart Stabilizer is secured to a flexible arm and universal mounting rail, which attached to the operating table rail. Vacuum is delivered to the pod assembly by a disposable suction line inserted through the shaft of the stabilizer and a disposable vacuum line that connects the stabilizer to the vacuum source. The accessories are sold separately.
More Information

No
The device description focuses on mechanical components and suction-based stabilization, with no mention of AI/ML terms or functionalities.

No.
The device's intended use is to stabilize the epicardial surface of the heart during surgery, which is a supportive role in a surgical procedure, not a direct treatment or therapy for a disease or condition.

No

The device description indicates it is a surgical tool used to stabilize the heart during surgery, not to diagnose medical conditions or analyze patient data.

No

The device description clearly outlines physical components such as a suction-based tissue stabilizer, collapsible pod assembly, rigid shaft, articulating links, suction lines, vacuum lines, and an irrigator. These are all hardware components, indicating it is not a software-only device.

Based on the provided information, the Medtronic Octopus TE Stabilizer is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.

Here's why:

  • IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body. The description clearly states the device is used to stabilize the epicardial surface of the non-arrested heart during surgery. This is a direct interaction with the patient's organ, not the analysis of a specimen taken from the patient.
  • The intended use and device description focus on a surgical procedure. The device is used in an operating room environment by medical professionals to physically stabilize the heart during coronary artery surgery. This is a therapeutic/surgical intervention, not a diagnostic test performed on a sample.

The information provided aligns with a surgical device used for stabilization during a procedure, not a device used for in vitro diagnostic testing.

| Trade Name: | Medtronic Octopus® TE Stabilizer & Accessories |
| Common Name: | Cardiovascular Surgical Instrument/Heart Stabilizer |
| Equivalence to: | The Medtronic Octopus TE Stabilizer & Accessories are
substantially equivalent in patient population, intended use,
function and basic system components to the Medtronic Octopus
Tissue Stabilizer (K964445) and the CTS (Guidant) Vacuum
Assist Stabilizer (K992833). |
| | The Medtronic Octopus TE Stabilizer has an optional irrigator
(lavage) that is designed to provide drip irrigation for improved
visibility. Said irrigator has a similar surgical site cleansing
indication for use as existing jet lavage systems such as the
Medtronic Clearview Blower/Misted (K973485). |
| Description: | The non-sterile, reusable Medtronic Octopus TE Heart Stabilizing
System is a suction-based tissue stabilizer with a collapsible pod
assembly, a rigid shaft and 5 articulating links designed to enable
transfer into the thoracic cavity via a 12 mm thoracic port or
traditional sternotomy access. It is comprised of four distinct
elements: (1) the Medtronic Octopus TE Tissue Stabilizer, (2) the

| | The Medtronic Octopus TE Heart Stabilizer is secured to a flexible
arm and universal mounting rail, which attached to the operating
table rail. Vacuum is delivered to the pod assembly by a
disposable suction line inserted through the shaft of the stabilizer
and a disposable vacuum line that connects the stabilizer to the
vacuum source. The accessories are sold separately. |
| Intended Use: | The Medtronic Octopus TE Stabilizer is used to stabilize the
epicardial surface of the non-arrested heart during coronary artery
surgery. It is intended to be used by trained medical professionals
in operating room environments. |
| Technological
Characteristics: | Comparisons between the new and predicate devices shows that
technological characteristics (i.e. device design and principal of
operation) are substantially equivalent. |
| Conclusion: | The Medtronic Octopus TE Stabilizer was found to be
substantially equivalent in patient population, intended use,
principal of operation and basic system components to the
predicate devices. |

Dear Dr. Cox:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
