No
The device description focuses on mechanical features and does not mention any AI or ML components or functionalities.
No
The device is a surgical stapler used for cutting and stapling tissue during various surgical procedures, primarily for transection, resection, and creating anastomoses, rather than directly treating or alleviating a disease or condition.
No
The device is described as a surgical stapler intended for transection, resection, and/or creation of anastomoses, which are surgical procedures, not diagnostic activities.
No
The device description clearly details a physical surgical instrument with mechanical components (staples, knife, triggers, pins, etc.) and reloadable cartridges, indicating it is a hardware device, not software-only.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is for "transection, resection, and/or creation of anastomoses" in surgical procedures. This involves directly interacting with and modifying living tissue within the body.
- Device Description: The description details a surgical stapler that cuts and staples tissue. This is a surgical instrument used in vivo (within the living organism).
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue samples) in vitro (outside the body) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment.
IVD devices are used to perform tests on samples taken from the body to provide diagnostic information. This device is a surgical tool used during a procedure on the patient's body.

Device Description
The CONTOUR™ Curved Cutter Stapler is a multifire, single patient use device with a curved head that cuts and staples. The device delivers four staggered rows of titanium staples, with a knife between the second and third row of staples, and creates a 40 mm curved transection. The device is designed with a feature which prevents closing if a used reload or no reload is in the instrument. Another feature is provided to prevent firing unless the closure trigger is latched in the closed position. A retaining pin holds tissue in place and can be positioned either manually or by squeezing the closure trigger. The instrument may be reloaded five times, for a maximum of six firings per instrument during a single procedure. Each reload cartridge module includes a knife blade with two staggered rows of staples on each side, an anvil, a cutting washer, a retaining pin, and a staple retainer. Reload cartridges are available in two sizes: a blue cartridge for compressed tissue with a thickness of 1.5mm, and a green cartridge for compressed tissue with a thickness of 2.0mm.
