Intended Use
The LiNA Bipolar Loop is a 5mm bipolar electrosurgical device intended for amputating the mobilized uterus during laparoscopic supracervical (subtotal) hysterectomy and resection of devasculated subserosal pedunculated myomas. To be used with an electrosurgical generator that provides a bipolar outlet.
Device Description
The LiNA Bipolar Loop is a 5 mm single use laparoscopic instrument. It is available with three different loop dimensions; 160mm x 80mm, 200mm x 100mm x 120mm x 120mm. The outer 15mm on each side of the loop is not insulated i.e. the bipolar cutting area length totals 30mm. The device is single use ethylene oxide sterilized and is compatible with most standard electrosurgical generators that provide a bipolar outlet.
More Information

No
The summary describes a mechanical electrosurgical device and its performance in simulated tissue studies. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any data-driven algorithms.

Yes
The device is used for amputating the uterus and resecting myomas, which are therapeutic medical interventions.

No

The device is an electrosurgical device for amputating tissue, which is a therapeutic function, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description clearly states it is a 5 mm single use laparoscopic instrument with physical dimensions and materials, indicating it is a hardware device.

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 procedure (amputating the uterus and resecting myomas) using an electrosurgical device. This is a therapeutic and surgical application, not a diagnostic test performed on samples outside the body.
  • Device Description: The device is described as a surgical instrument (a bipolar loop) used during a laparoscopic procedure.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Elements: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) or providing diagnostic information about a patient's health status.
  • Performance Study: The performance study focuses on the cutting quality and time of the device in simulated tissue, which is relevant to its surgical function, not its diagnostic accuracy.

IVD devices are designed to perform tests on samples taken from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment of diseases or conditions. This device does not fit that description.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

Efficacy and Functionality Test: The LiNA Loop and the LiNA Bipolar Loop had similar cutting quality in simulated tissue study using pork and beef muscle. Cutting quality was assessed on a scale of 1-9, with 5 being the acceptance criteria. 200mm sized loops were selected as this represented the mid-size loop for both the Bipolar Loop and Loop. The loops were assessed for cutting quality at high and low power settings. Both devices were qualitatively scored as a 5. Furthermore, cutting time was assessed, with an average deviation time between cuts of 0.85 seconds. Cutting time was assessed at the respective high and low power settings using three different generators and found to be within acceptable limits (±4 seconds). Therefore, the cutting time and quality were equivalent between the LiNA Loop and the LiNA Bipolar Loop.

The LiNA Bipolar Loop meets all the requirements for overall design, sterilization, biocompatibility, and electrical safety confirms that the output meets the design inputs and specifications. The LiNA Bipolar Loop passed all testing stated above as shown by the acceptable results obtained.

The LiNA Bipolar Loop complies with the applicable voluntary standards for biocompatibility and sterilization. The device passed all the testing in accordance with national and international standards.

Non-Clinical Performance Data 9.

The following testing has been performed to support substantial equivalence:

  • Efficacy and Functionality Test The LiNA Loop and the LiNA Bipolar Loop had similar . cutting quality in simulated tissue study using pork and beef muscle. Cutting quality was assessed on a scale of 1-9, with 5 being the acceptance criteria. 200mm sized loops were selected as this represented the mid-size loop for both the Bipolar Loop and Loop. The loops were assessed for cutting quality at high and low power settings. Both devices were qualitatively scored as a 5. Furthermore, cutting time was assessed, with an average deviation time between cuts of 0.85 seconds. Cutting time was assessed at the respective high and low power settings using three different generators and found to be within acceptable limits (±4 seconds). Therefore, the cutting time and quality were equivalent between the LiNA Loop and the LiNA Bipolar Loop.

3

As part of demonstrating the safety and effectiveness of the LINA Bipolar Loop and in showing substantial equivalence the predicate devices that are subject to this 510(k) submission, LiNA Medical ApS completed a number of tests. The LiNA Bipolar Loop meets all the requirements for overall design, sterilization, biocompatibility, and electrical safety confirms that the output meets the design inputs and specifications. The LiNA Bipolar Loop passed all testing stated above as shown by the acceptable results obtained.

The LiNA Bipolar Loop complies with the applicable voluntary standards for biocompatibility and sterilization. The device passed all the testing in accordance with national and international standards.

10. Clinical Testing

There was no clinical testing required to support the medical device as the indications for use is equivalent to the predicate device. These types of devices, including the predicate devices, have been on the market for many years with a proven safety and efficacy for the use of the device. The non-clinical testing detailed in this submission supports the substantial equivalence of the device.

11. Statement of Substantial Equivalence

lt has been shown in this 510(k) submission that the difference between the LiNA Bipolar Loop and the predicate devices do not raise any questions regarding its safety and effectiveness. Performance testing and compliance with voluntary standards, demonstrate that the LiNA Bipolar Loop is substantially equivalent to the relevant aspects of the predicate devices in terms of design, components, materials, principals of operation, sterilization, biocompatibility, performance characteristics, and intended use. The LiNA Bipolar Loop, as designed and manufactured, is determined to be substantially equivalent to the referenced predicate devices.
