The description focuses on standard electrosurgical system functionalities like HF current delivery, various modes, automatic features, and error detection. There is no mention of AI or ML terms, data processing for learning, or performance metrics typically associated with AI/ML algorithms.
Yes
The device is intended for "cutting and/or coagulation of tissue," which are direct interventions aimed at treating a medical condition or improving health.
No
The device description states its purpose is to deliver high-frequency electrical current for "cutting and/or coagulation of tissue," indicating a therapeutic rather than a diagnostic function.
No
The device description clearly details a physical electrosurgical unit (ESU) with hardware components like a color monitor display, various modes, automatic features, and connections for accessories. It delivers high-frequency electrical current, which is a physical output, not purely software functionality.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to "deliver high frequency (HF) electrical current for the cutting and/or coagulation of tissue." This describes a therapeutic or surgical intervention performed directly on the patient's tissue.
- Device Description: The description details an electrosurgical system that uses electrical current to cut and coagulate tissue. This is a physical interaction with the body, not an analysis of samples taken from the body.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: An IVD device is used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue samples) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device does not perform such analysis.
The device is clearly described as an electrosurgical unit used for surgical procedures, which falls under the category of therapeutic or surgical devices, not in vitro diagnostics.

Similarities and Differences of the Modified Device to the Current Device (Predicate Comparison/Substantial Equivalence):
ERBE VIO 300 D ESU
Similarities
The modified ESU (ERBE VIO 300 D ESU) has the same protective circuits and intended use as the predicate ESU (ERBE VIO 300 D ESU) and most of the performance specifications are the same. The modified ESU has the same protective circuits as the predicate ESU, which displays the Equipment Output Error on the monitor screen with a graphic representation so that you can readily determine the cause of the error. The modified ESU will also be manufactured by ERBE Elektromedizin GmbH in Germany and will be supplied as a non-sterile, reusable ESU system. The packaging and labeling (User Manual, etc.) components are similar except in the descriptions of specific user instructions.
Monopolar Modes:
The modified ESU has the same cut and coagulation modes, Effect levels, power maximums (wattages) and voltage maximums. The User Manual remains the same in the statement to the physician: "The power output setting should be set as low as possible for the desired tissue affect. The purpose of this is to help reduce the potential for capacitive coupling and inadvertent burning at higher wattages/ voltages."
Bipolar Modes:
The modified ESU has the same cut and coagulation modes, Effect levels, power maximums (wattages) and voltage maximums. The User Manual remains the same in the statement to the physician: "The power output setting should be set as low as possible for the desired tissue affect. The purpose of this is to help reduce the potential for capacitive coupling and inadvertent burning at higher wattages/voltages."
BiClamp, APC, and Argon-Assisted Modes:
The modified ESU has the same cut and coagulation modes, Effect levels, power maximums (wattages) and voltage maximums specific to BiClamp, APC, and Argon-Assisted Modes. The User Manual remains the same in the statement to the physician: "The power output setting should be set as low as possible for the desired tissue affect. The purpose of this is to help reduce the potential for capacitive coupling and inadvertent burning at higher wattages/ voltages."

The ENDO CUT is a function in which the incision is automatically controlled in such a way that alternating short cuts are combined with soft coagulation. Although both of these modes were available on the original 510(k) ESU, the product was not initially launched on the marketplace with this combination available. The predicate ESU has this feature specified as ENDO CUT I and ENDO CUT Q and has been in use for approximately two years. The modified ESU will continue with these same features except for slight differences as described below.
Differences
Monopolar Modes:
The ENDO CUT function was modified to more consistently emulate the original ENDO CUT technology from the ERBE ICC Series (Models) of ESUs. The ENDO CUT program, "1" (for use with needle instruments), has the same settings as the predicate product. The ENDO CUT program, "Q" (for use with loop instruments), has modified default settings from the predicate product. The control/ regulation of the ENDO CUT Q Mode was improved based on the field experience of the predicate Mode. These modifications do not affect the safety or efficacy of the VIO 300 D ESU. The labeling reflects the changes.
Bipolar Modes:
The modified ESU has two additional modes than in the predicate ESU. Additional modes were added per feedback from the physicians. A Bipolar Cut + mode and a Bipolar Soft Coag + mode were added for greater flexibility of use with Bipolar resection instruments. The addition of these modes does not affect the safety or efficacy of the modified ESU. The labeling reflects the changes.
BiClamp, APC, and Argon-Assisted Modes:
A modification was completed on the internal hardware of the high frequency (HF) generator printed circuit board (PCB). An additional decoupling capacitor was added on the HF-generator board to reduce the neuromuscular stimulation (NMS) effect during APC Pulsed Mode usage. Many of the gastrointestinal (GI) operative procedures are completed under minimal usage of anesthesia; therefore, the additional capacitor will assist in reduction of NMS during the usage of the APC Pulsed Mode. While NMS is a known issue with all high frequency electrical current generators, the APC Pulsed Mode is ideal for some operative procedures and the addition of the capacitor lowers the susceptibility of patients to NMS during use of the mode.
All the unit modifications have been verified or validated in design control.

Conclusion:
Page 4 of 4
The ERBE VIO ESU (Model VIO 300 D) has the same intended use, principles of operation, and technological characteristics as the predicate ESU in the previously cleared 510(k). The main modifications in the ESU reflect an ongoing commitment by ERBE to satisfy customer feedback. In conclusion, there are no issues with the ERBE VIO ESU (Model VIO 300 D) that would raise additional safety or efficacy issues when compared to the predicate device.
