Intended Use
ab medica Irrigation/Suction Gravity System is indicated for use in gynecological laparoscopy, laparoscopic cholecystectomy and other laparoscopic procedures.
Device Description
ab medica Irrigation/Suction Gravity System is intended for irrigation and suctioning of the surgical field during laparoscopic surgery. This device is intended to be used in the operating room and by surgeons only. The system consists of control handpiece pre-connected to a tubing set and removable cannula. The tubing set and the 5 mm and 10 mm cannulae are single-use devices and provided in sterile condition. Only the 3 mm reusable cannula is provided non sterile. The system is used during laparoscopic surgery to deliver sterile irrigation fluids and/or to produce suction to evacuate blood and small tissue debris, and t o maintain a clear view of the surgical site. Irrigation and suctioning functions are provided through the cannula, which is inserted to the surgical site by means of a trocar, and are manually controlled by surgeon through the control valves on the handpiece.
More Information

Not Found

No
The device description and performance studies focus on mechanical irrigation and suction functions, manually controlled by the surgeon. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or data analysis that would indicate the use of such technologies.

Yes.
The device is used for irrigation and suctioning during laparoscopic surgery to remove fluids, blood, and tissue debris, and to maintain a clear view of the surgical site, which are considered therapeutic actions in a surgical context.

No

The device is used for irrigation and suctioning during laparoscopic surgery to maintain a clear view of the surgical site, not to diagnose a condition.

No

The device description explicitly details physical components like a control handpiece, tubing set, and cannulae, indicating it is a hardware-based medical device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for irrigation and suctioning during laparoscopic surgical procedures to clear the surgical field. This is a direct intervention on the patient during surgery, not an in vitro test performed on a sample taken from the body.
  • Device Description: The description details a system for delivering fluids and applying suction within the body during surgery. It involves cannulae inserted into the surgical site.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing samples (blood, tissue, etc.) outside the body, using reagents, or providing diagnostic information based on the analysis of biological samples.

The device is a surgical tool used for maintaining visibility and managing fluids within the surgical field during laparoscopic procedures.

They are both composed of twin tubing set, control handpiece and cannula. Irrigation/ suction to / from the operative site are provided through the cannula.

Non-clinical simulated use testing was performed to verify safety and effectiveness as compared to the predicate.

Performance testing, including irrigation and suction flow rate, verified that the abmedica irrigation/suction gravity system is substantially equivalent to the predicate Core Dynamics devices and raises no new issues of safety and effectiveness.

Based on the intended use, technical characteristics and performance data, abmedica irrigation/suction gravity system is equivalent to the predicate device in terms of safety, effectiveness, and performance. Therefore, it is considered substantially equivalent to predicate.
