More Information

No
The summary explicitly states "There are no changes to the technological characteristics of the cleared da Vinci Xi Surgical System proposed in this submission." and there are no mentions of AI, DNN, or ML.

Yes.
The device is intended to assist in the accurate control of surgical instruments for various surgical procedures, which are therapeutic interventions.

No
The device is described as assisting in the control of surgical instruments for performing procedures, not for diagnostic purposes.

No

The device description explicitly states that the da Vinci Xi Surgical System is a "software-controlled, electromechanical system" and consists of hardware components like a Surgeon Console, Patient Side Cart, and Vision Side Cart. This indicates it is not a software-only device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes a surgical system designed to assist in the control of surgical instruments for performing various surgical procedures on the human body. This is a therapeutic and surgical device, not a device used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or compatibility testing.
  • Device Description: The description details a software-controlled, electromechanical system consisting of a Surgeon Console, Patient Side Cart, and Vision Side Cart used with surgical instruments. This aligns with a surgical robot, not an IVD.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on surgical outcomes like operative time, complications, blood transfusions, and length of stay, which are relevant to surgical procedures, not diagnostic testing.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological specimens, detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information.

Therefore, the Intuitive Surgical Endoscopic Instrument Control System (da Vinci Surgical System, Model IS4000) is a surgical device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

Pre-Clinical Animal Study Data:
Animal performance data were provided in this premarket notification, including the results from 7 evaluations in a total of 27 animals demonstrating use of da Vinci Xi Surgical System in the following procedures: Hysterectomy and Salpingectomy/Oophorectomy (Adnexectomy), Pyeloplasty, Nephrectomy, Nissen Fundoplication, Colectomy and Mitral Valve Repair. These data were previously submitted in support of clearance of the da Vinci Xi Surgical System and the da Vinci Xi Vessel Sealer (K131861 and K140189) and also support inclusion of the additional representative specific procedures.

Clinical Study Data:
Published clinical data support use of the da Vinci Xi Surgical System for the representative, specific procedures that fall under the cleared "gynecologic laparoscopic surgical procedures" general Indication for Use. Clinical data were not provided for all of the representative, specific procedures. Instead, clinical data were provided only for the more complex/higher risk representative, specific procedures (referred to as "umbrella" procedures). The published data on these "umbrella" procedures were deemed sufficient to cover the less complex/lower risk procedures (referred to as "covered" procedures), so published clinical data on the covered procedures were not provided.

Umbrella Procedures:
Published clinical data were provided for the following umbrella procedures: Hysterectomy (Radical) Salpingectomy, Oophorectomy, Lymphadenectomy, Myomectomy and Sacrocolpopexy. Twenty-one (21) publications were identified for these umbrella procedures based on specific search criteria and filters. These publications included randomized controlled trials, meta-analyses, systematic reviews or Health Technology Assessments and comparative studies. A detailed summary of the published clinical data on these procedures is provided in Tables 1-3 below.

The findings from the Hysterectomy, Salpingectomy, Oophorectomy and Lymphadenectomy publications show that da Vinci-assisted procedures are associated with comparable or fewer complications and blood transfusions and a shorter length of hospital stay as compared to both open and laparoscopic surgical procedures. These publications also noted increased operative times in the da Vinci procedures as compared to open procedures. However, this increase did not correlate with an increase in the reported complication rates. Additionally, these publications report comparable operative times and comparable or lower conversion rates for da Vinci-assisted procedures as compared to laparoscopic procedures.

Outcomes reported in the Myomectomy publications demonstrate that da Vinci-assisted procedures are associated with comparable complication rates; comparable or lower blood transfusion rates (Two publications reported a higher transfusion rate in the da Vinci-assisted cohorts as compared to the laparoscopic groups. However, Barakat noted that the cases completed with the laparoscopic approach were less challenging than those completed with do Vinci assistance and Gargiulo noted that the majority of transfusions in the da Vinci-assisted procedures were planned pre-operatively.); and comparable or shorter length of hospital stays as compared to both open and laparoscopic surgical procedures. These publications also noted increased operative times in the da Vinci procedures as compared to open procedures. However, this increase did not correlate with an increase in the reported complication rates. Additionally, these publications report comparable conversion rates for da Vinci-assisted procedures as compared to laparoscopic procedures.

The data provided in the Sacrocolpopexy publications show that da Vinci-assisted procedures are associated with comparable or lower complication rates; comparable blood transfusion rates and comparable or shorter length of hospital stays as compared to both open and laparoscopic surgical procedures. These publications also noted increased operative times in the da Vinci procedures as compared to open and laparoscopic procedures. However, this increase did not correlate with an increase in the reported complication rates. Additionally, these publications reported comparable conversion rates for da Vinci-assisted procedures as compared to laparoscopic procedures.

VIII. CONCLUSION

Based on the information provided in this premarket notification, the inclusion of the following additional representative, specific procedures under the da Vinci Xi Surgical System "gynecologic laparoscopic surgical procedure" general indication is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices: Hysterectomy (Radical, Hysterectomy for Benign Disease2), Salpingectomy, Oophorectomy, Lymphadenectomy, Myomectomy, Sacrocolpopexy, Endometriosis Resection, Adnexectomy, Omentectomy, Parametrectomy, Cyst Removal, and Lysis of Adhesions.

The demonstration of safety and effectiveness was based on evaluation of the device as a surgical tool and did not include evaluation of outcomes related to treatment of cancer (overall survival, disease-free survival, local recurrence).

2 "Hysterectomy" was previously cleared as a representative, specific procedure for the do Vinci Xi Surgical System under K131861.
