No
The summary describes a mechanical surgical stapler and reload, with no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any other technology typically associated with AI/ML. The performance studies focus on mechanical properties and biological outcomes.
No.
The device is a surgical stapler used for resection, transection, and anastomosis, which are surgical procedures, not therapeutic treatments.
No
The provided text describes a surgical stapler and reload used for resection, transection, and creation of anastomosis. It is a surgical tool, not a device intended to diagnose a disease or condition. The performance studies focus on mechanical and functional aspects like firing force, hemostasis, and burst strength, not diagnostic accuracy.
No
The device description explicitly states it is a "Reusable surgical stapler with a single use reload," indicating it is a physical hardware device. The performance studies also focus on physical characteristics like force, staple formation, and burst strength.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes a surgical stapler used for in vivo procedures (within the living body) for resection, transection, and anastomosis in various anatomical sites.
- Device Description: The device is described as a reusable surgical stapler with a single-use reload, which is consistent with a surgical instrument used directly on tissue.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: 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 used to perform tests on samples taken from the body, while this device is used directly on the body during surgery.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
For Stapler: The reusable staplers have applications in abdominal, gynecological, pediatric and thoracic surgical procedures for resection, transection and creation of anastomosis. They may be used for transection and resection of the pancreas.
For Reload: The ReliaMax™ single use gastrointestinal anastomosis reload when used with ReliaMax™ reusable gastrointestinal anastomosis stapler have applications in abdominal, gynecological, pediatric and thoracic surgical procedures for resection, transection and creation of anastomosis. They may be used for transection and resection of the pancreas.

CLASSIFICATION NAME: Staples, Implantable
DST™ Series GIA™ Staplers (K111825) PREDICATE DEVICE(S): .
DEVICE DESCRIPTION: Reusable surgical stapler with a single use reload
INTENDED USE: For Stapler: The reusable staplers have applications in abdominal, gynecological, pediatric and thoracic surgical procedures for resection, transection and creation of anastomosis. They may be used for transection and resection of the pancreas.
For Reload: The ReliaMax™ single use gastrointestinal anastomosis reload when used with ReliaMax™ reusable gastrointestinal anastomosis stapler have applications in abdominal, gynecological, pediatric and thoracic surgical for resection, transection and creation procedures of anastomosis. They may be used for transection and resection of the pancreas.
TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS:
ReliaMax™ The Gastrointestinal Anastomosis Staplers and Reloads are substantially equivalent to the predicate device (K111825) with regard to the stapling technologies.
The ReliaMax™ Gastrointestinal Anastomosis Staplers will be available in sizes that are encompassed by the predicate (K111825), 60mm and 80mm lengths. ReliaMax™ Reloads will be provided in three staple sizes, similar to the predicate (K111825) to accommodate various tissue thicknesses: 2.5mm, 3.8mm, and 4.8mm.
Identical to the predicate (K111825). ReliaMax™ Reloads will place two double rows of titanium staples and simultaneously cut and divide tissue between the two double rows.
All components of ReliaMax™ Gastrointestinal Anastomosis Staplers and Reloads are comprised of materials that are in accordance with ISO Standard 10993-1.
