The device description clearly outlines physical components (cylindrical tube, nylon bag, handle) and performance testing related to physical properties (forces, burst pressure, leak rate), 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 is for the removal of tissue specimens from the body cavity. This is a surgical or procedural function, not a diagnostic test performed in vitro (outside the body) on a specimen.
  • Device Description: The device is a physical bag designed to encapsulate and contain specimens for removal. It does not involve any reagents, assays, or analysis of the specimen itself for diagnostic purposes.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Information: The description does not mention any diagnostic claims, analysis of biological samples, or the generation of diagnostic results.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on the physical characteristics and functionality of the bag (leak rate, forces, burst pressure, usability), which are relevant to its function as a retrieval device, not a diagnostic one.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, tissue) in vitro to provide information for the diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment of a disease or condition. This device's function is purely for the physical retrieval of the specimen.

INTENDED USE:

The specimen retrieval bag has application for safe, convenient removal of tissue specimens such as the appendix, an ectopic pregnancy, gallbladder, gallstones, lymph nodes, ovaries, small sections of bowl and other tissue structures.

SUMMARY COMPARING THE TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF THE PROPOSED AND PREDICATE DEVICE(S)

The predicate device EndoCatch™ is packaged with the bag inside of the tube. Upon opening the package, the device is inserted into the trocar where the baq is deployed and the specimen retrieved. In the new design, the ReliaCatch™ device is packaged with the bag outside of the tube. Upon opening the package, the bag must initially be retracted into the tube prior to inserting into the trocar, and then deployed, and specimen retrieved. Additionally, the subject device will utilize a suture loop to cinch the bag once the specimen is retrieved, where the predicate utilized a ring. The predicate design consisted of a bag attached to a stainless steel spring. Once specimen is retrieved, the bag is cinched by pulling the gold ring and detaching the bag from the metal spring. The metal spring would then be retracted into the tube and the string cut, leaving the bag in the body cavity while the EndoCatch™ device is removed from the trocar. The subject device consists of a bag on "forks" which allows for the complete removal of the forks from the bag prior to cinching the bag and removing the specimen from the body cavity. Lastly, the suture material was changed to better perform in conjunction with the new rip-stop nylon bag material.

MATERIALS:

All components of the ReliaCatch™ specimen retrieval bag are comprised of materials which are in accordance with ISO 10993-1.
