The summary describes a software-controlled, electro-mechanical surgical system that assists surgeons with instrument control. There is no mention of AI, ML, or related concepts in the intended use, device description, or performance studies. The focus is on the robotic control and visualization aspects of the system.
Yes.
The da Vinci Surgical System is used to assist in accurate control of surgical instruments for various surgical procedures, which are therapeutic interventions.
No
Explanation: The device description and intended use clearly state that the da Vinci Surgical System is designed for surgical procedures, assisting in the "accurate control of Intuitive Surgical Endoscopic Instruments" for various manipulations of tissue, rather than for diagnosing conditions.
No
The device description explicitly states that the da Vinci Xi Surgical System is a "software-controlled, electro-mechanical system" and lists hardware components such as a Surgeon Console, Patient Side Cart, and Vision Side Cart. This indicates it is not a software-only device.
Based on the provided information, the Intuitive Surgical Endoscopic Instrument Control System (da Vinci Surgical System, Model IS4000) is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes the system as assisting in the control of surgical instruments for manipulating tissue during various surgical procedures. This is a surgical device used in vivo (within the living body), not in vitro (outside the living body).
- Device Description: The description details a software-controlled, electro-mechanical system consisting of a console, carts, endoscope, and instruments. This aligns with a surgical robotic system, not a device used for testing biological samples.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue samples) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
Therefore, the da Vinci Surgical System is a surgical device, not an IVD.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Pre-Clinical Animal Study Data: This premarket notification is supported by animal study data including the results from six (6) evaluations in a total of 24 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 submitted in support of clearance of the da Vinci Xi Surgical System (K131861).
Clinical Study Data: A retrospective, multi-center, non-randomized controlled clinical study evaluating the use of the da Vinci Surgical System in Inguinal Hernia Repair procedures compared with open surgical procedures was conducted. This study included 652 and 602 subjects in the robotic-assisted and open cohorts, respectively, and was conducted at six (6) investigational sites in United States. Post operative data was collected throughout the thirty (30) day follow up period. Longer term endpoints such as inguinal hernia repair recurrence and chronic pain were not assessed in this study, and thus no claims regarding these clinical outcomes data should be inferred. The results demonstrated the safety and effectiveness of robotic-assisted inguinal hernia repair procedures. Additionally, such data provides information comparing the use of the da Vinci System in Inguinal Hernia Repair procedures with open surgery in the following key measures:
- Length of Stay: comparable outpatient and inpatient lengths of hospital stay were reported for both the robotic-assisted and open cohorts. A statistically lower inpatient length of stay was found when propensity matched analysis was conducted.
- Intraoperative Complications: comparable intraoperative complication rates were reported for both the robotic-assisted and open cohorts.
- Transfusions: comparable blood transfusion rates were reported in both cohorts.
- Postoperative Complications through Discharge: comparable postoperative through discharge complication rates were reported for both the robotic-assisted and open cohorts.
- Postoperative Complications (Discharge through 30 days) -: a lower rate of postoperative complications from discharge through 30 day follow up was reported for the robotic-assisted cohort as compared to the open cohort.
- Readmission Rates: comparable readmission rates were reported for both the robotic-assisted and open cohorts.
- Reoperation Rates (Postoperative to Discharge): comparable reoperation rates were reported for the robotic-assisted cohort as compared to the open cohort.
- Reoperation Rates (Discharge through 30 days): lower reoperation rates were reported for the robotic-assisted cohort as compared to the open cohort. This statistically lower rate of reoperations was not observed in the propensity matched analysis. The results of the propensity matched analysis showed comparable reoperation rates.
- Mortality: comparable mortality rates were reported in both cohorts.
- Operative Time: longer operative times were reported for the robotic-assisted cohort as compared to open surgery.
The data from both cohorts of the retrospective study are compared to data on laparoscopic procedures from eleven (11) publications referenced in Bittner, et al., "Update of guidelines on laparoscopic (TAPP) and endoscopic (TEP) treatment of inguinal hernia (International Endohernia Society", Chapter 4: "TEP versus TAPP: which is better?"

VI. COMPARISON OF TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS WITH THE PREDICATE DEVICE
There are no changes to the technological characteristics of the cleared da Vinci Xi Surgical System (IS4000) proposed in this submission.
VII. PERFORMANCE DATA
Pre-Clinical Animal Study Data
This premarket notification is supported by animal study data including the results from six (6) evaluations in a total of 24 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 submitted in support of clearance of the da Vinci Xi Surgical System (K131861).
Clinical Study Data
A retrospective, multi-center, non-randomized controlled clinical study evaluating the use of the da Vinci Surgical System in Inguinal Hernia Repair procedures compared with open surgical procedures was conducted. This study included 652 and 602 subjects in the robotic-assisted and open cohorts, respectively, and was conducted at six (6) investigational sites in United States. Post operative data was collected throughout the thirty (30) day follow up period. Longer term endpoints such as inguinal hernia repair recurrence and chronic pain were not assessed in this study, and thus no claims regarding these clinical outcomes data should be inferred. The results demonstrated the safety and effectiveness of robotic-assisted inguinal hernia repair procedures. Additionally, such data provides information comparing the use of the da Vinci System in Inguinal Hernia Repair procedures with open surgery in the following key measures :
- Length of Stay: comparable outpatient and inpatient lengths of hospital stay were reported for both the robotic-assisted and open cohorts. A statistically lower inpatient length of stay was found when propensity matched analysis was conducted.
- Intraoperative Complications: comparable intraoperative complication rates were reported for both the robotic-assisted and open cohorts.
- Transfusions: comparable blood transfusion rates were reported in both cohorts.
- Postoperative Complications through Discharge: comparable postoperative through discharge complication rates were reported for both the robotic-assisted and open cohorts.
4 Propensity matched results are the same as the reported outcomes unless stated otherwise.
5
- Postoperative Complications (Discharge through 30 days) -: a lower rate of postoperative complications from discharge through 30 day follow up was reported for the robotic-assisted cohort as compared to the open cohort.
- Readmission Rates: comparable readmission rates were reported for both the robotic-assisted and open cohorts.
- Reoperation Rates (Postoperative to Discharge): comparable reoperation rates were reported for the robotic-assisted cohort as compared to the open cohort.
- Reoperation Rates (Discharge through 30 days): lower reoperation rates were reported for the robotic-assisted cohort as compared to the open cohort. This statistically lower rate of reoperations was not observed in the propensity matched analysis. The results of the propensity matched analysis showed comparable reoperation rates.
- Mortality: comparable mortality rates were reported in both cohorts.
- Operative Time: longer operative times were reported for the robotic-assisted cohort as compared to open surgery .
The data from both cohorts of the retrospective study are compared to data on laparoscopic procedures from eleven (11) publications referenced in Bittner, et al., "Update of guidelines on laparoscopic (TAPP) and endoscopic (TEP) treatment of inguinal hernia (International Endohernia Society", Chapter 4: "TEP versus TAPP: which is better?" Surg Endosc 29:289-321 (2015).
² Based on the results of the multivariate analysis, age greater than 65 years, presence of comorbidities and open inguinal hernia repair are associated with a higher likelihood of a postoperative complication within 30 days of surgery. Furthermore, propensity matched analyses showed that age greater than 65 years and open inguinal hernia are associated with a higher likelihood of a postoperative complication within 30 days of surgery.
The longer operative time for the robotic-assisted cohort was not associated with increases in the complication, readmission, reoperation or mortality rates.

*Related to Inguinal Hernia Repair Procedure
් Data from a retrospective, multi-center, non-randomized clinical study evaluating the use of the da Vinci Surgical System in Inguinal Hernia Repair procedures compared with open surgical procedures. This table includes all subjects with complete data (missing data is omitted), despite propensity scores showing that one third of investigational subjects did not have an appropriate match among control subjects and large site to site differences.
් Data from eleven (11) publications referenced in Bittner, et al., "Update of guidelines on laparoscopic (TAPP) and endoscopic (TEP) treatment of inguinal hernia (International Endohernia Society", Chapter 4: "TEP versus TAPP: which is better?" Surq Endosc 29:289-321 (2015).
4 Post operative complications and reoperation rates were not segregated by specific timeframes. [Note: One publication (Bracale, et al (2012) reported only relative risk and mean differences for post operative complications and operative time / length of stay.]
് Adverse Events defined as death or serious injury (i.e., Clavien Grade Illa or higher). Publications cited in Bittner, et al. did not categorize complications/events by severity (i.e., serious).
All complications defined as all intraoperative complications for the robotic-assisted and open cohorts. In the laparoscopic cohort, one publication cited in Bittner, et al reported "overall morbidity".
3Inguinal hernia recurrence and chronic pain were not assessed in this study.
6 The results are heavily influenced by one site. See also other footnotes below. Without this site, the mean number of inpatient days for open procedures is 3.00.
728/44 complications came from one of the 6 sites.
8 Of the 10 reoperations, 80% (8/10)were done at one site.

VIII. CONCLUSION
Based on the information provided in this premarket notification, the inclusion "Inguinal Hernia Repair" procedures under the da Vinci Xi Surgical System "general laparoscopic surgical procedure" indication is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices. The basis of this substantial equivalence determination was an assessment of the immediate post-operative outcomes comparing the robotic-assisted surgery inguinal hernia repair versus laparoscopic surgery inguinal hernia repair.
