No
The document describes a powered surgical stapler and its reload, focusing on mechanical and electrical performance, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities.

No.
The device is a surgical stapler used for resection, transection of tissues, and creation of anastomoses, which are surgical procedures, not therapeutic treatments.

No

The device description clearly states its functions as a surgical stapler for resection, transection of tissues, and creation of anastomoses, which are all treatment/surgical actions, not diagnostic ones.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "Surgical stapler with Powered Handle, delivering implantable titanium staples," indicating it is a hardware device with a powered component. The performance studies also detail testing related to hardware aspects like staple line strength, battery, and electrical safety standards.

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 surgical procedures (resection, transection, creation of anastomoses) on tissues within the body. This is an in vivo application, meaning it's used directly on a living organism.
  • Device Description: The description details a surgical stapler that delivers implantable staples. This is a surgical instrument, not a device used to examine specimens outside the body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue samples, etc.) or providing diagnostic information based on such analysis. IVDs are designed to provide information about a patient's health status through the examination of these samples.

Therefore, the iDrive™ Powered Handle and RALC are surgical devices used in vivo, not IVDs.
