Intended Use
The Intuitive Surgical da Vinci Harmonic ACE™ Device is intended for soft tissue incisions when bleeding control and minimal thermal injury are desired. It is designed to be used in conjunction with the da Vinci Surgical Systems (Model IS 1200, IS2000 and IS3000) and the Ethicon Endo-Surgery Generator 300 (Model GEN04) and Hand Piece (Model HP054).
Device Description
The Intuitive Surgical Harmonic ACE™ Device is used to deliver ultrasonic energy to enable transection and coagulation of tissue. The proximal end of the device is a re-usable instrument housing and attaches to the da Vinci Surgical System. The distal end is a disposable insert which consists of a shaft and grip assembly. The instrument housing and disposable insert are assembled together, attached to the da Vinci Surgical System and connected to Ethicon's Endo-Surgery Generator 300 (Model GEN04) using the Hand Piece (Model HP054). When the Harmonic ACE™ Device is activated, it delivers ultrasonic energy and enables transection and coagulation of tissue. The instrument is available in 5mm and 8mm diameters and in two configurations: one for use with the da Vinci (IS1200); and the other for the da Vinci Surgical (122000/123000) Systems, respectively. The same disposable insert is used with all configurations of the instrument.
More Information

No
The description focuses on the mechanical and energy delivery aspects of the device (ultrasonic energy for transection and coagulation) and explicitly states that AI/ML is "Not Found".

No
The device is described as an instrument used in conjunction with a surgical system for tissue transection and coagulation, which are surgical procedures, not therapeutic treatments.

No

This device is intended for "soft tissue incisions when bleeding control and minimal thermal injury are desired" and "to deliver ultrasonic energy to enable transection and coagulation of tissue," which are therapeutic/surgical functions, not diagnostic ones.

No

The device description clearly outlines physical components (instrument housing, disposable insert, shaft, grip assembly) and its function involves delivering ultrasonic energy through these components, 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 clearly states the device is for "soft tissue incisions when bleeding control and minimal thermal injury are desired." This describes a surgical procedure performed on a patient, not a test performed on a sample taken from a patient.
  • Device Description: The description details how the device delivers ultrasonic energy to "enable transection and coagulation of tissue." This is a description of a surgical tool used for cutting and sealing tissue during surgery.
  • Lack of IVD characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue samples, etc.), detecting specific analytes, or providing diagnostic information based on laboratory testing.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device is a surgical instrument used directly on the patient's tissue.

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

Performance tests (bench and animal lab tests) were conducted to demonstrate that the device is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices and that the design output meets the design input requirements. The results of the testing did not raise any new issues of safety or efficacy as compared to Intuitive Surgical's currently cleared Harmonic™ Curved Shears (K042855).

§ 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.
