Intended Use
Snowden-Pencer Ergonomic Take-Apart In-Line and Pistol-Grip Laparoscopic Instruments are designed to transmit cutting, clamping, grasping, suturing and dissecting force to working tips in minimally invasive surgeries such as plastic and general laparoscopic procedures.
Device Description
Snowden-Pencer Ergonomic Take-Apart In-Line and Pistol-Grip Laparoscopic Instruments consists of a handle, shaft and insert. The insert contains an end-effector (jaw pattern). There are several device models that encompass various lengths, diameters and jaw patterns based on the surgeon's needs.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes mechanical laparoscopic instruments and does not mention any AI or ML components or functions.

No
The device is described as an instrument for transmitting force during surgery, not for directly treating a condition or disease.

No.
The device is described as surgical instruments designed to transmit force for cutting, clamping, grasping, suturing, and dissecting during minimally invasive surgeries. There is no mention of the device collecting or analyzing data for diagnostic purposes; its function is purely interventional.

No

The device description clearly states it consists of physical components (handle, shaft, insert, end-effector) and the performance studies focus on physical properties like strength and biocompatibility, indicating it is a hardware device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the instruments are designed to "transmit cutting, clamping, grasping, suturing and dissecting force to working tips in minimally invasive surgeries." This describes a surgical instrument used on a patient during a procedure.
  • Device Description: The description details the physical components of a surgical instrument (handle, shaft, insert, end-effector).
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens (blood, tissue, etc.) in vitro (outside the body) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.

IVD devices are used to perform tests on samples taken from the body, not to directly interact with the body during surgery.

§ 876.1500 Endoscope and accessories.

(a)
Identification. An endoscope and accessories is a device used to provide access, illumination, and allow observation or manipulation of body cavities, hollow organs, and canals. The device consists of various rigid or flexible instruments that are inserted into body spaces and may include an optical system for conveying an image to the user's eye and their accessories may assist in gaining access or increase the versatility and augment the capabilities of the devices. Examples of devices that are within this generic type of device include cleaning accessories for endoscopes, photographic accessories for endoscopes, nonpowered anoscopes, binolcular attachments for endoscopes, pocket battery boxes, flexible or rigid choledochoscopes, colonoscopes, diagnostic cystoscopes, cystourethroscopes, enteroscopes, esophagogastroduodenoscopes, rigid esophagoscopes, fiberoptic illuminators for endoscopes, incandescent endoscope lamps, biliary pancreatoscopes, proctoscopes, resectoscopes, nephroscopes, sigmoidoscopes, ureteroscopes, urethroscopes, endomagnetic retrievers, cytology brushes for endoscopes, and lubricating jelly for transurethral surgical instruments. This section does not apply to endoscopes that have specialized uses in other medical specialty areas and that are covered by classification regulations in other parts of the device classification regulations.(b)
Classification —(1)Class II (special controls). The device, when it is an endoscope disinfectant basin, which consists solely of a container that holds disinfectant and endoscopes and accessories; an endoscopic magnetic retriever intended for single use; sterile scissors for cystoscope intended for single use; a disposable, non-powered endoscopic grasping/cutting instrument intended for single use; a diagnostic incandescent light source; a fiberoptic photographic light source; a routine fiberoptic light source; an endoscopic sponge carrier; a xenon arc endoscope light source; an endoscope transformer; an LED light source; or a gastroenterology-urology endoscopic guidewire, is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 876.9.(2) Class I for the photographic accessories for endoscope, miscellaneous bulb adapter for endoscope, binocular attachment for endoscope, eyepiece attachment for prescription lens, teaching attachment, inflation bulb, measuring device for panendoscope, photographic equipment for physiologic function monitor, special lens instrument for endoscope, smoke removal tube, rechargeable battery box, pocket battery box, bite block for endoscope, and cleaning brush for endoscope. The devices subject to this paragraph (b)(2) are exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807of this chapter, subject to the limitations in § 876.9.
