Intended Use
PAJUNK®'s PrimoCut Disposable Biopsy system is indicated for soft tissue biopsy.
Device Description
With PrimoCut. PAJUNK® has developed a disposable cannula system which was especially designed for the extraction of biopsies from soft tissue tumors. Depending on the size of the biopsy material desired, there are two different dissecting lengths to choose from: 6 mm, or 15 mm. Different from the multiple-use biopsy system DeltaCut, the activating mechanism of the PrimoCut is directly integrated in the connecting hub of the cannula. This more economical alternative is disposed of completely after use. The PrimoCut is a semi-automated, spring loaded, sterile disposable device for soft tissue biopsies.
More Information

No
The device description and performance studies focus on mechanical function and equivalence to existing non-AI/ML devices. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or data sets for training/testing.

No
The device is described as a biopsy system used for the extraction of tissue, which is a diagnostic procedure, not a therapeutic treatment.

No

The device is described as a biopsy system used for the extraction of tissue samples, which are then typically sent to a lab for diagnostic analysis. The device itself is for sample collection, not for performing the diagnostic analysis or providing a diagnosis.

No

The device description clearly describes a physical, disposable cannula system with an integrated activating mechanism, indicating it is a hardware device for soft tissue biopsy.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections. They are used to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Function: The PAJUNK® PrimoCut Disposable Biopsy system is a device used to extract a tissue sample from the body. It is a tool for obtaining the sample, not for analyzing it or performing a diagnostic test on it.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is "for soft tissue biopsy," which means obtaining a tissue sample. It does not mention any analysis or testing of the sample within the device itself.

The device is a surgical instrument used to collect a sample that could then be used for an in vitro diagnostic test (e.g., a pathology examination of the tissue). However, the device itself is not performing the diagnostic test.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

The comparison between the predicate devices and the subject device in section 12 of this submission as well as the validated sterilization process and the results of the bench testing and bench marking demonstrates that the proposed devices are substantially equivalent to the predicate devices and identical in technical description to devices already cleared for market and therefore demonstrated to be safe and effective. Based on the clinical evaluation, the biocompatibility testing and the bench testing conducted the efficacy of PAJUNK®'s PrimoCut is proven.
