The description focuses on electromagnetic tracking and visualization, not AI/ML for image analysis or guidance. The "predict the Handpiece shaft's future path" is based on spatial tracking, not learned patterns or algorithms.
Yes
The device is indicated for "coagulation and ablation of soft tissue, including treatment of symptomatic uterine fibroids," which directly addresses and treats a medical condition.
No
The device is indicated for percutaneous laparoscopic coagulation and ablation of soft tissue, specifically symptomatic uterine fibroids. Its function is to guide the tip of the handpiece and for treatment, not for diagnosing a condition.
No
The device description explicitly details the Acessa Guidance Handpiece as a physical, single-use, sterile radiofrequency applicator with a handle, shaft, needle tip, electrodes, sensors, and control buttons. It is a hardware component used in a surgical procedure.
Based on the provided information, the Acessa Guidance Handpiece is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is for "percutaneous laparoscopic coagulation and ablation of soft tissue, including treatment of symptomatic uterine fibroids under laparoscopic ultrasound guidance." This describes a surgical procedure performed on the patient's body, not a test performed on a sample taken from the patient.
- Device Description: The description details a surgical instrument (handpiece with needles, electrodes, and sensors) used for delivering radiofrequency energy to tissue. It also mentions a tracking system for guiding the instrument within the body. This is consistent with a surgical device, not an IVD.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) or providing diagnostic information based on such analysis. The device's function is therapeutic (ablation), not diagnostic.
Therefore, the Acessa Guidance Handpiece is a surgical device, not an IVD.

Device Description
Acessa Guidance Handpiece (Model Number 5300):
The Acessa Guidance Handpiece, when used with the tracking system, is meant to guide the tip of the Handpiece up to the uterine serosa. Once the device is advanced into the uterus, standard ultrasound views are used to guide the tip to the fibroid. Ultrasound visualization for fibroid penetration and treatment remain unchanged.
The Acessa Guidance Handpiece is a single-use only, sterile, radiofrequency (RF) applicator that connects to the Acessa Generator by a custom Cable. The Handpiece consists of a handle with a trocar shaft, active needle tip, and seven deployable needle electrodes each with embedded thermocouple sensors for real-time temperature feedback. The Acessa Guidance Handpiece also has control buttons that allow the user to access the User Interface.
This Acessa Guidance Handpiece also contains the magnetic guidance sensor used to determine spatial location. The embedded sensor and SROM can be used with the electromagnetic tracking technologies to track the positions of an Ultrasound Transducer and the Handpiece shaft, and draws virtual representations of them in their spatial relationship, so that a physician can predict the Handpiece shaft's future path in relation to the features in the ultrasound slice. These electromagnetic tracking technologies are considered optional accessories to Acessa System procedure.
