Intended Use
The Loktal Medical Electronics ind. E com. Ltda EPP - Wavetronic 5000 Digital HF Surgical Unit is intended for resection, ablation, excision of soft tissue, coagulation, and desiccation of soft tissue in patients requiring surgery.
Device Description
The Wavetronic 5000 Digital HF Surgical Unit is a non-sterile, reusable electrosurgical generator, which is designed to generate high frequencies (RF) of high voltage and low amperage current, operating at high frequency (4 MHz) to be employed by a variety of electrosurgical procedures. This action is achieved by front panel selection of waveforms and power levels. All selections are effected through push buttons and dials, and lamps, which give the operator feedback of status. The Wavetronic 5000 Digital HF Surgical Unit is an electrosurgical cutting and coagulation device intended to remove tissue and control bleeding by use of high-frequency electrical current. The device has four modes of operation; 1. Cut a basic cutting mode that produces minimal heat. 2. Blend (cut and coagulation) surface coagulation takes place simultaneously with cutting, with wave ratio being approximately 50/50. 3. Coagulation a mode with high lateral heat emission. 4. Bipolar (bipolar coagulation mode) bipolar coagulation mode is intended to remove tissue and control bleeding by use of high-frequency, electrosurgical current. The control unit of the device front panel control provides the user with buttons, enabling to operate the device during therapy, and a display, which shows the set and indicated parameters. The therapeutic parameters can be set or adjusted any time through surgery, and displays the therapeutic method, the set power, and other necessary data required throughout the treatment. The Wavetronic 5000 Digital HF Surgical Unit consists of the following main components: - Wavetronic 5000 Digital high-frequency electromagnetic energy generator - Optional wave selection (cut, blend, coag, bipolar) - Footswitch - Power cable
More Information

Not Found

No
The device description focuses on standard electrosurgical generator technology with manual controls and pre-set modes. There is no mention of AI, ML, or any adaptive or learning capabilities.

Yes
The device is described as an electrosurgical unit intended for resection, ablation, excision of soft tissue, coagulation, and desiccation, which are all therapeutic actions. Additionally, the control unit allows for setting and adjusting "therapeutic parameters" during "therapy" or "treatment."

No

The device is an electrosurgical unit intended for surgical procedures like resection, ablation, excision, coagulation, and desiccation of soft tissue, which are therapeutic actions, not diagnostic ones.

No

The device description clearly states it is an electrosurgical generator and lists hardware components like the generator itself, footswitch, and power cable. It is a physical device that generates high-frequency electrical current for surgical procedures.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for surgical procedures on soft tissue in patients. This involves direct interaction with the patient's body for therapeutic purposes (resection, ablation, excision, coagulation, desiccation).
  • Device Description: The device is an electrosurgical generator that uses high-frequency electrical current to cut and coagulate tissue during surgery.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: An IVD device is intended for use in vitro (outside the body) to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue samples) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device does not perform any such analysis of specimens.

Therefore, the Wavetronic 5000 Digital HF Surgical Unit is a surgical device used directly on a patient, not an in vitro diagnostic device.
