The device description and performance studies focus on the reprocessing of physical surgical instruments (trocars) and do not mention any software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI/ML.
No
The device is used to create a pathway for surgical instruments and maintain cavity pressure, but it does not directly treat or prevent a disease, nor does it restore, correct, or modify a bodily function or structure.
No
A trocar is an instrument used to create a pathway for surgical instruments, not to diagnose a condition. Its function is to provide access during minimally invasive surgery.
No
The device description clearly details physical components (cannulae, obturator, safety shield, stability anchors) and processes involving physical manipulation (cleaning, inspection, packaging, sterilization). There is no mention of software as the primary or sole component.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to "provide a pathway for entry of instruments during minimally invasive surgery." This is a surgical tool used directly on the patient's body.
- Device Description: The description details the physical components of a surgical trocar (cannulae, obturator) and the reprocessing process. It does not mention any components or processes related to testing samples from the human body.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: An IVD device is used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device does not perform any such function.
The device is a reprocessed surgical instrument used for accessing the body during surgery, not for in vitro diagnostic testing.

Device Description
A Vanguard Reprocessed Trocar is a previously used device that has been cleaned, inspected, packaged and sterilized by Vanguard Medical Concepts, Inc.
Trocar Cannulae are available in sizes 5-15mm inner diameter and 70-100mm length. Cannulae are equipped with a pressure seal for maintenance of pneumopertineum during insertion and withdrawal of instruments. Some models are equipped with a luer stopcock port for insufflation and desufflation of the operative cavity. Some models are provided with stability anchors inserted over the cannula sleeve to help seal the incision site and maintain cavity pressure.
Trocar Obturator is available in bladed and non-bladed configurations sized 5-15mm. Bladed models are equipped with a safety shield designed to expose the blade during insertion but to retract over the tip once the operative cavity has been penetrated so as to reduce the risk for vascular or visceral injury.
Non-Bladed obturators have either a rounded (blunt) tip or sharply tapered (dilator) tip to allow trocar insertion following a cut down and minimize the risk for internal injury.
Vanguard receives previously used trocars from healthcare facilities; cleans, inspects, tests, packages, labels, and sterilizes the devices; and returns them to a healthcare facility for subsequent use.

Dear Ms. Barton:
This letter corrects our substantially equivalent letter of March 31, 2005. The above-referenced premarket notification (510(k)) was cleared by the Office of Device Evaluation (ODE) on March 31, 2005. We have received your supplemental validation data as required for reprocessed singleuse devices by the Medical Device User Fee and Modernization Act of 2002. After reviewing your supplemental validation data, we have determined the devices listed in the enclosure accompanying this letter are 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 these devices, 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 devices are classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA) they 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 devices in the Federal Register.
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your devices comply with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's applicable requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements
