The SurgiQuest AirSeal™ Optical Trocar & Cannula System has applications in abdominal and thoracic minimally invasive surgical procedures to establish a path of entry for endoscopic instruments and to evacuate smoke. The trocar may be used with or without visualization for primary and secondary insertions.
SurgiQuest AirSeal™ Optical Trocar & Cannula System
This document is a 510(k) premarket notification from the FDA, primarily concerned with establishing substantial equivalence for the SurgiQuest AirSeal™ Optical Trocar & Cannula System to legally marketed predicate devices. It does not contain the detailed information required to answer your specific questions regarding acceptance criteria and study data.
My analysis of the provided text confirms that the document does not contain:
- A table of acceptance criteria and reported device performance.
- Sample sizes used for a test set, nor data provenance.
- Number or qualifications of experts used to establish ground truth.
- Adjudication methods.
- Information about a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study, including effect sizes.
- Results from a standalone (algorithm only) performance study.
- The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.) for any study.
- The sample size for a training set.
- Information on how ground truth for a training set was established.
This document is a regulatory approval letter based on substantial equivalence, not a detailed technical report of device performance studies. Therefore, it lacks the specific study design and results information you are looking for.
§ 876.1500 Endoscope and accessories.
(a)
Identification. An endoscope and accessories is a device used to provide access, illumination, and allow observation or manipulation of body cavities, hollow organs, and canals. The device consists of various rigid or flexible instruments that are inserted into body spaces and may include an optical system for conveying an image to the user's eye and their accessories may assist in gaining access or increase the versatility and augment the capabilities of the devices. Examples of devices that are within this generic type of device include cleaning accessories for endoscopes, photographic accessories for endoscopes, nonpowered anoscopes, binolcular attachments for endoscopes, pocket battery boxes, flexible or rigid choledochoscopes, colonoscopes, diagnostic cystoscopes, cystourethroscopes, enteroscopes, esophagogastroduodenoscopes, rigid esophagoscopes, fiberoptic illuminators for endoscopes, incandescent endoscope lamps, biliary pancreatoscopes, proctoscopes, resectoscopes, nephroscopes, sigmoidoscopes, ureteroscopes, urethroscopes, endomagnetic retrievers, cytology brushes for endoscopes, and lubricating jelly for transurethral surgical instruments. This section does not apply to endoscopes that have specialized uses in other medical specialty areas and that are covered by classification regulations in other parts of the device classification regulations.(b)
Classification —(1)Class II (special controls). The device, when it is an endoscope disinfectant basin, which consists solely of a container that holds disinfectant and endoscopes and accessories; an endoscopic magnetic retriever intended for single use; sterile scissors for cystoscope intended for single use; a disposable, non-powered endoscopic grasping/cutting instrument intended for single use; a diagnostic incandescent light source; a fiberoptic photographic light source; a routine fiberoptic light source; an endoscopic sponge carrier; a xenon arc endoscope light source; an endoscope transformer; an LED light source; or a gastroenterology-urology endoscopic guidewire, is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 876.9.(2) Class I for the photographic accessories for endoscope, miscellaneous bulb adapter for endoscope, binocular attachment for endoscope, eyepiece attachment for prescription lens, teaching attachment, inflation bulb, measuring device for panendoscope, photographic equipment for physiologic function monitor, special lens instrument for endoscope, smoke removal tube, rechargeable battery box, pocket battery box, bite block for endoscope, and cleaning brush for endoscope. The devices subject to this paragraph (b)(2) are exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807of this chapter, subject to the limitations in § 876.9.
