Intended Use
The PK Spatula is indicated for resection and coagulation of soft tissue and blood vessels in laparoscopic and general surgical procedures when used with the Olympus ESG-400 Generator.
Device Description
The PK Spatula is a bipolar electrosurgical instrument with the capability to cut and coagulate soft tissue and blood vessels in laparoscopic and general surgery. The instrument will pass through a 5mm cannula or through an operating laparoscope working channel of 5mm or larger diameter. The instrument is to be used only with the ESG-400 electrosurgical generator. The generator and device make up a medical electrical system. The instrument is to be used only with the Gyrus ESG-400 Generator and associated 5 way connector cable. The device is intended for use in a non-irrigated (dry) environment.
More Information

No
The document describes a standard electrosurgical instrument and generator system with no mention of AI or ML capabilities in the intended use, device description, or performance studies.

No
The device is described as an electrosurgical instrument for cutting and coagulating tissue during surgery, which are procedural functions rather than therapeutic ones aimed at treating a disease or condition.

No

The device description clearly states it is an electrosurgical instrument used for "resection and coagulation of soft tissue and blood vessels," indicating a therapeutic rather than diagnostic function.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a bipolar electrosurgical instrument, which is a hardware device. It also mentions physical characteristics like passing through a cannula and being used with a generator and cable.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. These tests are performed outside of the body.
  • PK Spatula Function: The description clearly states the PK Spatula is used for "resection and coagulation of soft tissue and blood vessels in laparoscopic and general surgical procedures." This is a surgical instrument used directly on the patient's tissues during a procedure.

The device's function is entirely focused on surgical intervention within the body, not on analyzing samples taken from the body.

Dear Mr. Kelly:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you; however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls.

Comparison to Predicate Devices:

The PK Spatula has been compared to our own legally marketed Gyrus PlasmaCision Laparoscopic Spatula (K041633) with respect to intended use and technological characteristics. The comparison and testing results presented in this 510(k) notification to the FDA show that the device is substantially equivalent to predicate devices and raises no new concerns or safety or effectiveness.

Product Description

The PK Spatula is a bipolar electrosurgical instrument with the capability to cut and coagulate soft tissue and blood vessels in laparoscopic and general surgery. The instrument will pass through a 5mm cannula or through an operating laparoscope working channel of 5mm or larger diameter. The instrument is to be used only with the ESG-400 electrosurgical generator. The generator and device make up a medical electrical system. The instrument is to be used only with the Gyrus ESG-400 Generator and associated 5 way connector cable. The device is intended for use in a non-irrigated (dry) environment.

Technological Characteristics

The PK Spatula uses bipolar energy in order to cut and coagulate soft tissue and blood vessels in laparoscopic and general surgical procedures. The PK Spatula is activated using buttons located on the device handle. This allows the physician to activate either cut or coagulation (coag) mode without taking their eyes off the surgical site. Historically foot pedals have been used for such devices and are also available for the proposed device. A nosecone located at the distal end of the handle and at the proximal end of the device shaft allows the physician to alter the orientation of the electrode tip without altering the orientation of the handle.

Material

The predicate and proposed devices share many common materials. The two patient contact material differences are the sheath, which is now flouropolymer rather than Polyimide tubing, and a new ink was added on the device shaft as well. Biocompatibility testing has been carried out with passing results. As for the electrode tip and insulation all materials remain the same as the predicate.

Intended Uses

The PK Spatula is indicated for resection and coagulation of soft tissue and blood vessels in laparoscopic and general surgical procedures when used with the Olympus ESG-400 Generator.

Compliance to Voluntary Standards

The design of the proposed device complies with the following standards:

ISO 10993-1, 2009 ISO 10993-5, 2009 ISO 10993-7 2008 ISO 10993-10, 2010 ANSI/AAMI/ISO 11607-1, 2006 ANSI/AAMI/ISO 11135-1, 2007 ISO 14971, 2007 ISO 15223-1; 2012 IEC 60601-1: 2005 IEC 60601-2-2: 2009

Summary of Sterilization and Shelf Life Discussion

The Olympus PK Spatula is delivered in a sterile state and is intended for single patient use only. The sterilization method used is ethylene oxide and has a shelf life of three(3) years.

Summary of Performance Testing

The following performance tests were conducted:

  • Dimensional Measurements ●
  • Cutting and Coagulation equivalency to predicate
  • Expected forces on devices ●
  • Design feature testing (rotation and button activation)
  • Shelf Life
  • Sterilization ●
  • Biocompatibility ●

Substantial Equivalence

The proposed PK Spatula has the same intended use, design, and scientific technology as the Predicate PlasmaCision Laparoscopic Spatula (K041633). Both devices are of the same design, intended for the same patient population, have the identical indications for use, and use the same scientific technology. In addition there were no new issues of safety or effectiveness found with the proposed device.

Conclusion:

In summary, the PK Spatula is substantially equivalent to the predicate device and presents no new questions of safety or efficacy.
