Intended Use
The McCartney Access Tube is intended to be inserted transvaginally to establish a path of entry for minimally invasive instruments and as a template for dissection, while maintaining pneumoperitoneum during laparoscopic hysterectomy. The instrument is indicated for use in laparoscopically assisted vaginal hysterectomies. The instrument is also a conduit for the extraction of specimens.
Device Description
The McCartney Access Tube is a sterile, single use instrument consisting of a silicone rubber tube, a polypropylene body and a silicone rubber cap. The McCartney Access Tube is available in 35mm and 45mm diameters. The instrument is packaged with a stopcock that can be inserted on the cap in order to insufflate and desufflate the peritoneum along with minizing gas leakage. The cap has two valves for 5mm and 10mm minimally invasive instrument access. The distal end of the silicone rubber tube is beveled and has a textured surface for internal identification.
More Information

Not Found

No
The device description and intended use are purely mechanical and do not mention any computational or analytical capabilities.

No
The device is described as an access tube for surgical procedures and specimen extraction, not as a tool for treating a disease or condition.

No

Explanation: The device is an access tube for surgical procedures (laparoscopic hysterectomy) and speciment extraction. It is not used for diagnosing any condition.

No

The device description clearly states it is a physical instrument made of silicone rubber and polypropylene, intended for surgical use. It is not software.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) taken from the human body to provide information about a person's health. This testing is done outside of the body (in vitro).
  • McCartney Access Tube Function: The description clearly states the device is used transvaginally to establish a path for instruments, maintain pneumoperitoneum, and extract specimens during a surgical procedure. It is a surgical access and manipulation tool used within the body.

The intended use and device description focus on surgical access and manipulation, not on testing or analyzing biological specimens outside the body.

§ 884.1640 Culdoscope and accessories.

(a)
Identification. A culdoscope is a device designed to permit direct viewing of the organs within the peritoneum by a telescopic system introduced into the pelvic cavity through the posterior vaginal fornix. It is used to perform diagnostic and surgical procedures on the female genital organs. This generic type of device may include trocar and cannula, instruments used through an operating channel, scope preheaters, light source and cables, and component parts.(b)
Classification. (1) Class II (performance standards).(2) Class I for culdoscope accessories that are not part of a specialized instrument or device delivery system; do not have adapters, connectors, channels, or do not have portals for electrosurgical, laser, or other power sources. Such culdoscope accessory instruments include: lens cleaning brush, biopsy brush, clip applier (without clips), applicator, cannula (without trocar or valves), ligature carrier/needle holder, clamp/hemostat/grasper, curette, instrument guide, ligature passing and knotting instrument, suture needle (without suture), retractor, mechanical (noninflatable), snare, stylet, forceps, dissector, mechanical (noninflatable) scissors, and suction/irrigation probe. The devices subject to this paragraph (b)(2) are exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter, subject to the limitations in § 884.9.
