The summary describes a thermal scalpel system that uses heat conduction for cutting and hemostasis. The description focuses on hardware differences and performance comparisons to a predicate device, with no mention of AI, ML, or related concepts like image processing or data-driven decision making.
Yes
The device is a surgical instrument designed to minimize blood loss by simultaneously sealing blood vessels, which is a therapeutic function.
No
The device is described as a "surgical instrument" designed for cutting and sealing blood vessels, which are therapeutic functions, not diagnostic. There is no mention of it being used to diagnose conditions or gather diagnostic information.
No
The device description clearly outlines a physical surgical instrument with components like a blade, handle, enclosure, and display, which are hardware elements. The performance studies also focus on physical characteristics like blade temperature and hemostasis, not software performance.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use/Indications for Use: The intended use clearly states it's a "surgical instrument designed to retain the precise, clean cutting characteristics of a traditional steel scalpel and to minimize blood loss by simultaneously sealing blood vessels as they are cut...". This describes a device used on the body during surgery, not a device used to test samples from the body (which is the definition of an IVD).
- Device Description: The description reinforces its function as a surgical tool with a heated blade for cutting and sealing tissue.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), reagents, or any other components typically associated with in vitro diagnostics.
- Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on the device's ability to control blade temperature and achieve hemostasis during surgical procedures, not on the accuracy or reliability of diagnostic test results.
Therefore, the Model P8400 Hemostatix Thermal Scalpel System is a surgical device, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Performance testing of the Model P8400 Hemostatix Thermal Scalpel System was conducted and the results compared to the predicate device - the Model 2400Z Hemostatix Thermal Scalpel System.
-
VERIFICATION OF ACTUAL BLADE TEMPERATURES COMPARED WITH CONTROLLER SETPOINTS: This study verified that the Model P8400 controller could control blade temperatures to within ± 10° C of the controller's set points. Temperature measurements were taken using a thermocouple attached to a blade surface at controller set points over a range of 150° C and the maximum temperature of 300° C in still air without load. The Model P8400 controller's actual blade temperature correlated within 0° C to 5° C over the entire range of its set points. It was concluded that the Model P8400 controller was more capable of matching actual blade temperature to controller set point temperature than the Model 2400Z controller.
-
VERIFICATION OF THE LEVEL OF HEMOSTASIS ACHIEVED: Controlled animal testing was conducted to compare the hemostasis achieved with the Model P8400 Hemostatix Thermal Scalpel System to the predicate device, the Model 2400Z Hemostatix Thermal Scalpel System. The P8400 system achieved an average level of hemostasis of 4.8 (on a 0 to 5 scale with 5 representing the best) compared with the Model 2400Z system which achieved an average level of hemostasis of 4.56.

Intended Use - The Model P8400 Hemostatix Thermal Scalpel System is a surgical instrument designed to retain the precise, clean cutting characteristics of a traditional steel scalpel and to minimize blood loss by simultaneously sealing blood vessels as they are cut with minimal tissue damage and virtually no muscle stimulation, using heat thermally conducted to the tissue from an elevated-temperature blade.
Predicate Device - The Model P8400 Hemostatix Thermal Scalpel System is substantially equivalent to the Hemostatix Model 2400Z Thermal Scalpel System and any differences should not affect safety or effectiveness.
Statement of Similarities and Dissimilarities - The Model P8400 Hemostatix Thermal Scalpel System has the same intended use; the same technological characteristics; power modality; mode of operation: utilizes the same scalpel blades; has many of the same audible sounds and alarms; handles that are sterilized the same way (EO gas); same operating temperature ranges (70° C to 300° C), and, utilizes the same blades as the predicate device, the Hemostatix Model 2400Z Thermal Scalpel System cleared via 510(k) No .: K033089. The Model P8400 Hemostatix Thermal Scalpel System differs from the predicate device in that the Model P8400 Hemostatix Thermal Scalpel System features an aluminum enclosure vs. a thermoplastic enclosure for the Hemostatix Model 2400Z Thermal Scalpel System; requires a different handle with a unique plug-in connector which is not compatible with the Hemostatix Model 2400Z Thermal Scalpel System; will accommodate an optional footswitch to control the functions of the handle and blade; will mount on an IV pole unlike the Hemostatix Model 2400Z Thermal Scalpel System; has one multi-color 4.6 in x 3.4 in TFT display vs. two displays (1.5 in x 3 in - three color and 0.5 in x 3 in monochromatic message center); and is designed to be UL 60601-1 Type BF versus a Type B for the Hemostatix Model 2400Z Thermal Scalpel System.

Performance Testing - Performance testing of the Model P8400 Hemostatix Thermal Scalpel System was conducted and the results compared to the predicate device - the Model 2400Z Hemostatix Thermal Scalpel System. Results of the following performance tests demonstrate that the device is as safe, as effective, and performs as well as or better than the predicate device.
1. VERIFICATION OF ACTUAL BLADE TEMPERATURES COMPARED WITH CONTROLLER SETPOINTS
To verify the design input requirements that the Model P8400 controller was capable of controlling blade temperatures to within ± 10° C of the controller's set points. temperature measurements using a thermocouple attached to a blade surface at controller set points over a range of 150° C and the maximum temperature of 300° C were taken in still air without load applied to the blades using both the Model P8400 controller and the Model 2400Z controller. The results indicated that the actual blade temperature using the Model P8400 controller correlated within 0° C to 5° C over the entire range of the controller's set points. Comparing the results of the Model P8400 controller to that of the Model 2400Z controller, it was concluded that the Model P8400 controller was more capable of matching actual blade temperature to controller set point temperature than the Model 2400Z controller.
2. VERIFICATION OF THE LEVEL OF HEMOSTASIS ACHIEVED
To compare the results of hemostasis achieved with the Model 8400 Hemostatix Thermal Scalpel System to the predicate device, the Model 2400Z Hemostatix Thermal Scalpel System, controlled animal testing was conducted. Results of this testing demonstrated that the P8400 system achieved an average level of hemostasis of 4.8 (as judged on a 0 to 5 scale with 5 representing the best) compared with the Model 2400Z system which achieved an average level of hemostasis of 4.56.
