The description focuses on the mechanical and electrical components of a surgical instrument, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities.
No
This device is an electrocautery surgical instrument used for grasping, mobilization, dissection, and transection of tissue during minimally invasive procedures, not for therapeutic treatment.
No
The device description indicates it is a surgical tool used for grasping, mobilization, dissection, and transection of tissue, not for diagnosing conditions.
No
The device description clearly outlines physical hardware components including a handle, tube, end effectors, rotation knob, bend wheel, actuating trigger, and an energy supply cable. It is a physical surgical instrument, not software.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device is for use in "minimally invasive surgical procedures to facilitate grasping, mobilization, dissection, and transection of tissue." This describes a surgical instrument used on the patient's body during a procedure.
- Device Description: The description details a surgical instrument with a handle, shaft, and end effectors (scissors, dissector/grasper, hook) for manipulating tissue. It also mentions connection to an electrocautery generator for applying energy to tissue.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: An IVD is a device used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, tissue samples) outside the body to provide information about a person's health. This device does not perform any such analysis of specimens.
The description aligns perfectly with a surgical instrument used for performing procedures directly on a patient.

Device Description
The SurgiSteer™ line of electrocautery laparoscopic instruments are sterile, single-use disposable instruments intended for use through appropriately sized surgical trocars and consist of a proximal handle and a flexible distal end segment interconnected with a rigid 5.0 mm outer tube, all safely insulated for monoplolar electrocautery use. Distal to the distal end segment of the shaft is one of the end effectors (scissors, dissector/grasper, or hook) rotationally mounted independent of the outer tube and flexible end segment . Proximal to the end of the rigid shaft is an ergonomically shaped handle which contains: 1) a rotation knob that causes the end effector to rotate freely in both CW and CCW directions, 2) a bend wheel that causes the flexible end segment to bend >90 degrees in both left and right directions, and, 3) the actuating trigger that causes the articulating components of the end effector, if any, to open and close with sufficient force to either dissect or transect tissue. Each instrument has a monopolar energy supply cable that extends from the bottom of the handle and that can be plugged into the "the universal monopolar receptacle for footswitch-activated accessories on any commercially available generator.

Summary of Performance Studies
Pre-clinical testing was used to evaluate performance to ensure that the device can be used as designed. The testing evaluated ergonomics of the handle, rotate knob, bend wheel, and the dissecting grasping ability and electrical insulation requirements. The studies demonstrated acceptable reliability and design performance relative to the predicate device.

Proprietary Name: SurgiSteer™ electrocautery laparoscopic instruments. Common/Usual Name: electrocautery scissors, dissector/grapser, or hook Classification Name: 878.4400 Electrosurgical cutting and coagulation device and accessories.
3. Identification of Predicate or Legally Marketed Device
The SurgiSteer™ electrocautery laparoscopic instruments by Steerable Technologix, LLC are substantially equivalent to the "pureWrist™ electrocautery laparoscopic instruments by Cambridge Endoscopis Devices, Inc under K061425
4. Device Desciption:
The SurgiSteer™ line of electrocautery laparoscopic instruments are sterile, single-use disposable instruments intended for use through appropriately sized surgical trocars and consist of a proximal handle and a flexible distal end segment interconnected with a rigid 5.0 mm outer tube, all safely insulated for monoplolar electrocautery use. Distal to the distal end segment of the shaft is one of the end effectors (scissors, dissector/grasper, or hook) rotationally mounted independent of the outer tube and flexible end segment .

The word "Steerable" is in a bold, sans-serif font, with a thick black line above it that curves around the word. Below "Steerable" is the word "Technologies" in a smaller, italicized font. To the right of "Technologies" is a graphic of a surgical instrument at the end of a cable.
6. Comparison of Technological Characteristics
The SurgiSteer electrocautery laparoscopic instruments have the same technological and functional characteristics as the predicate device, the "pureWrist™ electrocautery laparoscopic instruments" by Cambridge Endoscopic Devices, Inc. Each of the devices has an end effector (scissors, graspers /dissectors, or hook) that can cut or coagulate tissue using monopolar electrocautery technology. Each use sharp objects to permit the surgeon to cut or dissect tissue. Each of the devices is connected to the same or similar electrosurgical generator and use similar power ranges for operation. Each are footswitch operated and can be used in the CUT mode by depressing the CUT pedal or the COAG mode by depressing the COAG pedal. Typically, in the CUT mode a sharp edge is used to focus the energy for cutting. Conversely, in the COAG mode, a broad, flat face is preferable for the coagulation of bleeders. The devices have the same intended use, indications for use, and technological features including equivalent mechanical movement (bend, rotate, and actuate), equivalent electrical characteristics (monopolar) and equivalent surgical end effectors all of which yield equivalent performance. The devices have the same or similar materials of construction, packaging, and labeling. The total of these similarities supports the claim of substantial equivalence.
7. Performance Testing
Pre-clinical testing was used to evaluate performance to ensure that the device can be used as designed. The testing evaluated ergonomics of the handle, rotate knob, bend wheel, and the dissecting grasping ability and electrical insulation requirements. The studies demonstrated acceptable reliability and design performance relative to the predicate device.
8. Statement of Equivalency
Based on the design, intended use, and performance testing comparisons, the SurgiSteer line of laparoscopic instruments by Steerable Technologix, LLC are substantially equivalent to the Cambridge Endoscopic Devices, Inc. pureWrist™ laparoscopic instruments approved under K061425.
