No
The device description and performance studies focus on mechanical function and material properties, with no mention of AI or ML.
Yes
The device is used for resection, transection, and creation of anastomosis in various surgeries (abdominal, gynecologic, pediatric, thoracic), which are all therapeutic interventions.
No
The device is described as a surgical stapler reload used for resection, transection, and creation of anastomosis. Its function is to physically cut and staple tissue, which is a therapeutic intervention, not a diagnostic one.
No
The device description clearly outlines a physical medical device (stapler reload with staples, cutting blade, and anvil) and describes physical modifications and performance testing related to hardware components. There is no mention of software as a component or function of the device.
Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes a surgical stapling device used for resection, transection, and creation of anastomosis in various surgical procedures. This involves physically manipulating and joining tissues within the body.
- Device Description: The device description details a mechanical stapling reload with staples, a cutting blade, and an anvil. It describes a physical process of clamping, cutting, and stapling 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) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment. IVDs typically involve analyzing biological samples outside of the body.
The device described is a surgical instrument used directly on the patient during surgery, not a diagnostic tool used on biological samples.

Device Description
The subject and predicate Endo GIA™ Reload place two. triplestaggered rows of titanium staples and simultaneously divides the tissue between the two, triple-staggered rows. The size of the staples is determined by the selection of the 3.5mm or 4.8mm reload. The 45mm subject and predicate Endo GIA™ Reload is designed for introduction and use through a 12mm trocar sleeve, or larger, with a use of a converter. When using the 60mm subject and predicate Endo GIA™ Reload, it must be inserted into a 15mm trocar sleeve. The subject and predicate Endo GIA™ Reload is used with the Endo GIA™ Universal, Endo GIA™ Universal XL and GIA™ Universal stapler handles.
The subject device and the predicate device both are a linear or articulating reload that is attached to a stapler handle. The reload contains staples, a cutting blade, and an anvil which to form the staples. Once the reload is attached to the stapler handle, the trigger on the handle is manually squeezed once to close the anvil in order to clamp the tissue. Once the anvil is fully closed, it securely retains the tissue until it is opened. To fire either the subject or predicate device, a safety must be physically and intentionally disengaged after full clamp-up. Once the safety has been disengaged, the trigger can be squeezed additional times to fire the staples and advance the cutting blade. The number of firing squeezes will increase the cartridge length.
The subject and predicate Endo GIA™ reloads are sterilized via ethylene oxide, have 45mm or 60mm staple cartridge lengths, 3.5mm or 4.8mms titanium staples, single use and disposable devices.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Design verification and pre-clinical validation studies were conducted to demonstrate that the proposed device Endo GIA™ Reload are safe and effective and perform as intended. Performance testing to support the intended use of this device includes:
- In vitro staple formation
- Insertion /Removal force
- In vivo tissue firing for tissue trauma, knife cut and staple formation
- In vivo tissue trauma abrasion
- Cytotoxicity Test
- ETO Residual Testing ISO 10993-7:2008
- IR analvsis
- Passivation (rust and corrosion) must meet ASTM A967
The result of these tests demonstrates that the proposed device Endo GIA™ Reload is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.

SUBJECT AND PREDICATE DEVICE SIMILARITIES:
The subject and predicate Endo GIA™ Reload place two. triplestaggered rows of titanium staples and simultaneously divides the tissue between the two, triple-staggered rows. The size of the staples is determined by the selection of the 3.5mm or 4.8mm reload. The 45mm subject and predicate Endo GIA™ Reload is designed for introduction and use through a 12mm trocar sleeve, or larger, with a use of a converter. When using the 60mm subject and predicate Endo GIA™ Reload, it must be inserted into a 15mm trocar sleeve.

SUBJECT DEVICE MODIFICATIONS:
The subject device contains two modifications compared to predicate, the addition suture slots and blunt blades within the anvil and cartridge of These two minor modifications are the only differences the reload. between the subject device and the predicate device. The addition of the suture slots and blunt blades are the result of refurbishment of components from a previously cleared device (K080898). The suture slots within the previously cleared device (K080898) secured suture on the anvil and cartridge to hold reinforcement material. The blunt blades would cut the suture in order to deploy the reinforcement material when the reload is fired. The subject device is refurbished by removing the sutures and tissue reinforcement material. The minor modification of the suture slots and blunt blades do not affect the intended use or fundamental scientific technology of the subject device compared to the predicate device. All other aspects of the subject device and predicate device are the same.
INTENDED USE:
The Endo GIA™ Reload has applications in abdominal, gynecologic, pediatric and thoracic surgery for resection, transection and creation of anastomosis. They may be used for transection and resection of liver substance, hepatic vasculature and biliary structures and for transection and resection of pancreas.
TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS:
MATERIALS:
The Endo GIA™ Reload is substantially equivalent and has not altered the fundamental scientific technology to the predicate devices with regards to stapling technologies.
All components of the proposed device Endo GIA™ Reload are identical to the predicate Endo GIA™ reload (K061095) and a previously cleared device (K080898) and are comprised of materials that are in accordance with ISO Standard 10993-1.
