No
The device description clearly outlines physical components such as a hand-held surgical instrument with jaws, a cable, and a generator, indicating it is a hardware device that utilizes electrical current and heat for its function.
Based on the provided text, the Open FMsealer is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device is for "ligation of vessels, including lymph vessels" and "sealing and ligating vessels up to 7mm and tissue bundles" during surgical procedures. This is a direct intervention on the patient's body.
- Device Description: The description details a "hand-held surgical instrument" that uses "high-frequency electrical current" and "application of heat and compression to tissue bundles and vessels" to achieve its function. This is a surgical tool used in vivo.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: An IVD device is used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue samples) in vitro (outside the body) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. The Open FMsealer does not perform any such analysis on patient specimens.
Therefore, the Open FMsealer is a surgical device used in vivo for tissue manipulation and vessel sealing, not an IVD.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Open FMsealer is intended for use in general and gynecological surgery and other open surgical procedures where ligation of vessels, including lymph vessels, is desired. The system creates a vessel ligation (seal) by the application of heat (coagulation) to vessels interposed between the jaws of the device. The Open FMsealer can be used to seal and ligate vessels up to 7mm and tissue bundles as large as will fit in the jaws of the instrument.
The Open FMsealer has not been shown to be effective for tubal sterilization or tubal coagulation for sterilization procedures, and should not be used for these purposes.

Device Description
An electrosurgical cutting and coagulation device (and accessories) is a device intended to remove tissue and control bleeding by use of high-frequency electrical current (see 21 CFR §878.4400). It is classified as a Class II (510(k)) device.
The Open FMsealer is a device intended for sealing of vessels and for soft tissue cutting and coagulation. The device is designed to be used only with the FMwand Generator (K130606). The two-piece device consists of a sterile, single-use patient-contacting shears section (Open FMsealer) and an accessory cable (Power Module or PM) that connects the FMsealer to the generator. The dual footpedal connects to the rear of the generator and can be used to activate the FMsealer if desired by the user.
The Open FMsealer is a hand-held surgical instrument intended for use in open surgical procedures where ligation of vessels or cutting and coagulation of soft tissue is desired. The Open FMsealer consists of a scissor-like handle with two actuation buttons and jaws to grasp the tissue to be affected.
The Open FMsealer is connected to the FMwand Generator (K130606) by the Power Module. The connectors on both ends of the Power Module are designed to fit only the FMwand Generator and FMwand sterile, disposable accessories. The power module and FMwand Generator were previously cleared as part of K130606.
This system creates sealing, cutting and coagulation by the application of heat and compression to tissue bundles and vessels interposed between the iaws of the instrument. Like the predicate device, the Open FMsealer includes actuation buttons that can be used to activate the device.
The Open FMsealer has been shown (in animal studies) to cut and seal vessels up to and including 7mm in diameter, lymphatics and tissue bundles as large as will fit into the jaws of the device.
Technological Comparison
The Open FMsealer employs ferromagnetic induction to generate heat in the tip. This method of heat generation is identical technology as the FMwand Ferromagnetic Surgical System (K130606), and differs from the LigaSure System which uses the resistance of the target tissue and electrical current to produce the heat necessary for cutting and sealing (bipolar electrosurgery).
