Intended Use
The Intuitive Surgical Endoscopic Instrument Control System is intended to assist in the accurate control of Intuitive Surgical Endoscopic Instruments including rigid endoscopes, blunt and sharp endoscopic dissectors, scissors, scalpels, ultrasonic shears, forceps/pickups, needle holders, endoscopic retractors, stabilizers, electrocautery and accessories for endoscopic manipulation of tissue, including grasping, cutting, blunt and sharp dissection, approximation, ligation, electrocautery, suturing, and delivery and placement of microwave ablation probes and accessories during urologic surgical procedures, general laparoscopic surgical procedures, gynecologic laparoscopic surgical procedures, general noncardiovascular thoracoscopic surgical procedures and thoracoscopically assisted cardiotomy procedures. The system can also be employed, with adjunctive mediastinotomy to perform coronary anastomosis during cardiac revascularization. The system is indicated for adult and pediatric use. It is intended for use by trained physicians in an operating room environment in accordance with the representative specific procedures set forth in the Professional Instructions for Use.
Device Description
This SPECIAL 510(k) is being submitted for a design modification to the Intuitive Surgical EndoWrist Instruments to incorporate the functionality (vacuum stabilization, irrigation) of the Medtronic Octopus TE Tissue Stabilizer (class I, cardiovascular surgical instrument, Product Codes DWS and MWS, under CFR Section 870.4500) on an EndoWrist Instrument known as the EndoWrist Stabilizer. This modification affects the instrument only, and there are no changes to the da Vinci Surgical System associated with this pre-market notification. The Intuitive Surgical EndoWrist Stabilizer is a multiple use instrument similar to existing EndoWrist instruments and has the following key features: - The EndoWrist Stabilizer incorporates collapsible "pods" as grips that provide suction based tissue stabilization. The collapsible feature allows the instrument to be used through a 12mm thoracic port. - A disposable, pre-packaged sterilized tubing assembly known as "ClearField" tubing is used to connect the instrument to pressurized irrigation fluid to irrigate the surgical site reducing the amount of blood on the stabilized tissue. - A disposable, pre-packaged sterilized tubing assembly known as "CardioVac" tubing provides vacuum suction to the stabilizer pods from the Vacuum Source tubing described below. - A disposable, pre-packaged sterilized tubing assembly known as "Vacuum Source" tubing that connects the CardioVac tubing to a canister with a four-meter vacuum hose, and also includes a two-meter vacuum hose (with filter) to connect to a regulated vacuum source. The Intuitive Surgical Endowrist Stabilizer is used with the da Vinci Surgical System Model IS2000, which is also known as the da Vincis S™ Surgical System. The surgeon sits at a Surgeon Console and controls critical aspects of the procedure, including movement of the endoscopic instruments and endoscope, within the operative field through use of the Master Tool Manipulators (MTM), two hand operated mechanisms residing within the Surgeon Console. The EndoWrist Stabilizer is operated in the same way as other Intuitive Surgical EndoWrist Instruments, and the surgeon "locks" the stabilizer in position by switching MTM control away from the arm holding the tabilizer instrument by tapping a foot pedal on the Surgeon Console.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a mechanical instrument modification for a surgical system, focusing on vacuum stabilization and irrigation. There is no mention of AI or ML in the intended use, device description, or performance studies.

Yes
The device is described as an Endoscopic Instrument Control System and an EndoWrist Stabilizer used in various surgical procedures, including for tissue manipulation, grasping, cutting, and suturing, which are therapeutic interventions.

No

The device description clearly states its purpose is to "assist in the accurate control of Intuitive Surgical Endoscopic Instruments" for various surgical manipulations like "grasping, cutting, blunt and sharp dissection, approximation, ligation, electrocautery, suturing, and delivery and placement of microwave ablation probes and accessories." This describes a surgical assist device, not one that gathers or interprets data for diagnosis.

No

The device description clearly outlines physical components like instruments, tubing assemblies, and connections to vacuum and irrigation sources, indicating it is a hardware device with potential software control, not a software-only device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes a surgical instrument system used for manipulating tissue during surgical procedures. This is an in vivo (within a living organism) application, not an in vitro (outside of a living organism) diagnostic test.
  • Device Description: The description details a surgical instrument with features for tissue stabilization, irrigation, and suction. These are all tools used directly on the patient during surgery.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Elements: There is no mention of analyzing samples (blood, tissue, etc.) or providing diagnostic information about a patient's condition. The device's function is purely interventional and supportive during surgery.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device does not fit that description.
