The summary describes standard laparoscopic and electrosurgical instruments and does not mention any AI or ML capabilities.
No
The device description states it is used for "dissecting, cutting and optional monopolar or bipolar coagulation of tissue during general surgical procedures," which describes a surgical tool used for modification of tissue, not a therapeutic treatment.
No
Explanation: The device description states its use for "dissecting, cutting and optional monopolar or bipolar coagulation of tissue," which are surgical treatment functions, not diagnostic ones.
No
The device description clearly states it is a physical instrument used for surgical procedures and connects to electrosurgical generators, indicating it is a hardware device.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the instruments are for "dissecting, cutting and optional monopolar or bipolar coagulation of tissue during general surgical procedures." This describes a surgical tool used directly on the patient's body.
- Device Description: The description reinforces this by detailing how the instruments are used in "various surgical applications" and connected to "high-frequency electrosurgical generators."
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue samples) in vitro (outside the body) to provide information about a patient's health status, diagnosis, or treatment.
IVD devices are specifically designed for testing samples outside the body to provide diagnostic information. This device is a surgical instrument used in vivo (within the body) during a procedure.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
Rudolf's laparoscopic and electrosurgical instruments are designed for dissecting, cutting and optional monopolar or bipolar coagulation of tissue during general surgical procedures.
These devices have not been shown to be effective for tubal sterilization or tubal coagulation for sterilization procedures and should not be used for these procedures.

Device Description
Laparoscopic and electrosurgical instruments are used in various surgical applications. Therefore they are varying in size and build-up, though the general principle remains unchanged. By using a suitable connecting cable, the monopolar and bipolar instruments can be connected to high-frequency electrosurgical generators.

Dear Mr. Menean:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is 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 the device, 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 device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it 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 device 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 device complies 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 requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set

forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.
If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801), please contact the Center for Devices and Radiological Health's (CDRH's) Office of Compliance at (240) 276-0115. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21CFR Part 807.97). For questions regarding postmarket surveillance, please contact CDRH's Office of Surveillance and Biometric's (OSB's) Division of Postmarket Surveillance at (240) 276-3474. For questions regarding the reporting of device adverse events (Medical Device Reporting (MDR)), please contact the Division of Surveillance Systems at (240) 276-3464. You may obtain other general information on your responsibilities under the Act from the Division of Small Manufacturers, International and Consumer Assistance at its toll-free number (800) 638-2041 or (240) 276-3150 or at its Internet address http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/industry/support/index.html.
