Intended Use
Cauterisation of tissues and capillary vessels during operations. No high frequency generator is required.
Device Description
Self-powered devices for the cauterization of tissues and capillary vessels during surgery, without the use of a high frequency generator. The system is started by pressing the button on the body of the cautery. The resistance of the wire of the tip, when the current passes, causes its heating guaranteeing its capacity of cauterization. The plastic and metal materials used in the devices comply with biocompatibility requisites. The energy produced by the continuous current is distributed as heat through a tip at a high temperature; the distribution is at short intervals of few seconds. The cautery has the weight, size and handle suitable to allow for easy use.
More Information

Not Found

No
The description details a simple, self-powered cautery device that uses resistive heating. There is no mention of any computational or learning capabilities.

Yes
The device is used for cauterization of tissues and capillary vessels during operations, which is a therapeutic intervention.

No
The device is described as a surgical tool for cauterization/cutting of tissues by heat and does not perform any diagnostic function. Its purpose is therapeutic.

No

The device description clearly outlines a physical, self-powered device with a heated tip for cauterization. It describes hardware components like a button, wire resistance, and battery, and the performance studies focus on temperature and battery life, which are hardware characteristics. There is no mention of software as a component or its function.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is "Cauterisation of tissues and capillary vessels during operations." This is a direct surgical intervention on the patient's body.
  • Device Description: The description details a self-powered device that uses heat to cauterize tissue. This is a physical process applied to the patient.
  • Lack of In Vitro Activity: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue samples) outside of the body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment.

IVD devices are specifically designed to perform tests on samples taken from the body to provide diagnostic or other health-related information. This device performs a therapeutic action directly on the patient during surgery.

Summary of Performance Studies

Since there are no specific guidelines regulating the performances of the devices in question (Performance Standards), we have deemed sufficient to carry out the following lab tests (all results related to performance tests are included in section 18):

  • Check the temperature reached by the incandescent filament is 12009 C. Temperature's measurement was made both internally (FIAB) and by a third party. Internal measurement was made with 2 methods: first using a simple encapsulated "S" thermocouple to get an indicative value of maximum temperature reached by tip and the second one using a Fiab self-built equipment to reduce inertia of temperature gauge, by this method it is possible a more accurate measurement of temperature. In order to get a confirmation of cautery ability to reach expected temperature a more accurate test was made by externally laboratory.
  • Check the length of operation of the battery: from theoretical calculations we get number of activations for a fixed duration of activation. A visual operation test was made in order to verify a sufficient heating of the tip for all expected number of activations with predefined duration, being such number at least equal to 48.

Results carried out from the test showed that FIAB cauteries met the design specifications.
