Intended Use
The Aquamantys™ Bipolar Pump Generator is an electrosurgical generator with a rotary peristaltic pump which is intended for hemostatic sealing of soft tissue and bone at the operative site. It is intended for, but not limited to, use in orthopaedic, spine and thoracic surgery. The device is not intended for contraceptive tubal coagulation (permanent female sterilization). For use only by qualified medical personnel properly trained in the use of electrosurgical equipment, technology and techniques.
Device Description
The Aquamantys Pump Generator is a shelf top unit consisting of a sheet metal housing, front control panel and side mounted pump. Within the housing resides a main circuit board, a display board and a power supply. The software integrates the flow to the desired power setting and flow level selected. The pump generator can be set from 20 to 200 watts and has high, medium and low flow rate settings. The Aquamantys system includes the pump generator, cart and specified Aquamantys disposable devices. The Aquamantys BPS 6.0 and the Aquamantys BPS 2.3 are hand held "wand" like devices that consist of a plastic handle with two needle electrodes at one end that interface with the operative site. The other end of the handle has a cable that plugs into the pump generator and have a section of pump tubing that clamps into the peristaltic pump. Compared to most conventional electrosurgical devices and generators, TissueLink bipolar devices are unique in that they provide simultaneous fluid delivery, as well as the treatment of tissue that is based on simultaneous irrigation and low power density RF energy delivery to tissue that is oozing blood at a slow but steady rate.

The description focuses on the electrosurgical generator's hardware, software for integrating flow and power settings, and the mechanism of simultaneous fluid delivery and RF energy. There is no mention of AI, ML, or any learning or adaptive capabilities based on data.

Yes

The device is intended for "hemostatic sealing of soft tissue and bone at the operative site" which is a therapeutic intervention.

No.
The device is described as an electrosurgical generator intended for hemostatic sealing of soft tissue and bone, not for diagnosing a medical condition.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "shelf top unit consisting of a sheet metal housing, front control panel and side mounted pump" and includes a "main circuit board, a display board and a power supply." It also describes "hand held 'wand' like devices" and a "cart," indicating significant hardware components beyond just software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for "hemostatic sealing of soft tissue and bone at the operative site." This is a therapeutic procedure performed directly on the patient's body during surgery.
  • Device Description: The device is an electrosurgical generator with a pump and hand-held "wand" like devices that interface with the operative site. This describes a surgical tool used for treatment.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: An IVD device is used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, tissue) outside of the body to provide information about a patient's health. This device does not perform any such analysis of specimens.

The device is clearly intended for surgical intervention and treatment, not for diagnostic testing of samples.
