No.
The device closes tissue with staples; it does not treat a disease or condition.
No
The device is a surgical stapler used for transection and resection of internal tissues, which is a therapeutic function, not diagnostic. Its purpose is to physically alter tissues (approximate them with staples), not to identify or characterize a medical condition.
No
The device description clearly outlines physical components (reusable handle, disposable reload, staples) and bench/animal testing related to mechanical performance, indicating it is a hardware device. There is no mention of software as the primary or sole component.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue samples) to provide information about a person's health. This testing is done outside the body (in vitro).
- Device Description: The description clearly states that this device is a "surgical stapling device used throughout the alimentary tract and in thoracic surgery for transection and resection of internal tissues." This means it is used directly on internal tissues within the body during surgery.
- Intended Use: The intended use is for "transection and resection of internal tissues" within the alimentary tract and in thoracic surgery. This is a surgical procedure, not an in vitro diagnostic test.
The device is a surgical instrument used for physically manipulating and joining tissues within the body, which is the opposite of an in vitro diagnostic test.

Device Description
The Reusable Linear Stapler and Disposable Reload is a surgical stapling device used throughout the alimentary tract an in thoracic surgery for transection and resection of internal tissues. The device delivers two staggered rows of titanium alloy staples in a 40 mm staple line to approximate internal tissues. Staple height is adjustable to compensate for tissue thicknesses from 1.5 mm to 2.5 mm. The device consists of two components: the Reusable Linear Stapler Handle (ADLH) and the disposable Linear Stapler Rcload (ADL40R).

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Bench testing was conducted to demonstrate and verify the performance of the disposable reload and the reusable handle after 200 simulated uses. Test results demonstrated the bench testing acceptance criteria were met. Animal (tissue) testing was conducted to evaluate the pressure tolerance of an anastomotic stoma created in porcine colon. Testing results demonstrated that staple lines created by the linear stapler device met the leak pressure acceptance criteria.

Contraindications:
- Do not use on the heart, aorta, coronary, carotid or pulmonary arteries or veins, the . superior or inferior vena cava, common internal or external iliac arteries or veins, or the brachiocephalic trunk.
- Do not use the ADLH (and corresponding reload ADL40R) on tissue with a thickness . that requires an instrument setting of less than 1.5 mm or greater than 2.5 mm.
- Do not use the instruments on ischemic or necrotic tissue. .
- Do not use the instruments on solid organs, such as liver or spleen, where attempted . compression would be destructive.
- Do not use when surgical stapling is contraindicated. .

Technological Characteristics: The Reusable Linear Stapler and Disposable Reload consists of two components: the reusable handle and the disposable reload. The handle can be used for 200 applications. The reload, which is designed for a single use, is made up of two staggered rows of staples with a length of 40 mm. The staple height can be adjusted to accommodate a compressed tissue thickness of 1.5 mm to 2.5 mm. A spent reload indicator warns when the reload must be discarded.
Performance Data: Bench testing was conducted to demonstrate and verify the performance of the disposable reload and the reusable handle after 200 simulated uses. Test results demonstrated the bench testing acceptance criteria were met.
Animal (tissue) testing was conducted to evaluate the pressure tolerance of an anastomotic stoma created in porcine colon. Testing results demonstrated that staple lines created by the linear stapler device met the leak pressure acceptance criteria.
