No
The description mentions a "microprocessor controlled" device with "software controlled graphical user interface," but there is no mention of AI, ML, or any related concepts like deep learning, neural networks, or algorithms that learn from data. The functionality described is standard for a medical device controlled by a microprocessor and software.
Yes
The device is used during both diagnostic and therapeutic endoscopic procedures to distend cavities, which directly assists in therapeutic interventions.
No
The device is a CO2 insufflator used to distend cavities with gas for better visualization and working space during endoscopic procedures; it does not diagnose conditions.
No
The device description explicitly lists multiple hardware components, including a casing, power supply, pressure reducers, sensors, valves, a suction pump, and a fluid sensor. While it has a software-controlled GUI, it is clearly a physical device with integrated software, not a software-only device.
Based on the provided information, the PNEUMOCLEAR™ device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is used to "distend a cavity by filling it with gas" during endoscopic procedures. This is a therapeutic and diagnostic procedure performed in vivo (within the body), not in vitro (outside the body).
- Device Description: The description details a device that delivers CO2 gas and potentially removes smoke from body cavities. This aligns with surgical and endoscopic procedures, not laboratory testing of biological samples.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to analyze biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) or to provide diagnostic information based on such analysis.
Therefore, the PNEUMOCLEAR™ is a medical device used for surgical and diagnostic procedures on a patient, not an IVD used for testing samples from a patient.

and transanal minimally invasive procedures and at the end of a procedure.
Intended Use / Indication for Use:
The device PNEUMOCLEAR™ is a CO2 insufflator intended for use during diagnostic and/or therapeutic endoscopic procedures to distend a cavity by filling it with gas. The Standard, High Flow/Bariatric, Pediatric and Advanced Flow operating modes of the device are indicated to fill and distend a peritoneal cavity with gas during a laparoscopic procedure. The Pediatric operating mode is indicated for pediatric laparoscopic procedures. The Vessel Harvest operating mode is indicated for use during endoscopic vessel harvesting procedures to create a cavity along the saphenous vein or radial artery. The TAMIS operating mode is indicated to fill and distend the rectum and colon using CO2 gas during trans anal minimally invasive surgery.
Substantial Equivalence and Comparison of Technological Characteristics:
The PNEUMOCLEAR™ is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices Insufflator 50L FM134 (K153513) and SurgiQuest AirSeal iFS System (K143404). The PNEUMOCLEAR™ has features similar to those seen in the reference devices Olympus High Flow Insufflation Unit UHI-4 (K122180) and Insuflow (K090456).
The proposed device, PNEUMOCLEARTM, and the predicate devices, Insufflator 50L FM134 and SurgiQuest AirSeal iFS System, as well as the reference device, Olympus High Flow Insufflation Unit UHI-4, are all CO2 insufflators intended for use during diagnostic and/or therapeutic endoscopic procedures to distend a cavity by filling it with gas. In addition, the PNEUMOCLEAR™ is used for the same or similar indications as the primary predicate device Insufflator 50L FM134, i.e. Standard, Bariatric, Pediatric, Vessel Harvest. With regards to the TAMIS indication the PNEUMOCLEAR™ is substantially equivalent to the secondary predicate device, SurgiQuest AirSeal iFS System, that is also indicated to fill and distend the rectum and colon using CO2 gas during trans anal minimally invasive surgery.
Furthermore, the PNEUMOCLEARTM and the primary predicate device, Insufflator 50L FM134, use the same basic operating principles and incorporate the same basic design. Both the proposed device PNEUMOCLEAR™ and the primary predicate device. Insufflator 50L FM134, are microprocessor controlled CO2 insufflators that consist of the same major components and incorporate the same major features except for the addition of a suction pump to provide for smoke evacuation in the proposed device. In addition, both the proposed device and the primary predicate device are to be used with specially designed sterile, single-use insufflation tube sets with integrated filter and optional heating function.

The differences in the technological characteristics between the proposed device, PNEUMOCLEARTM, and the primary predicate device, Insufflator 50L FM134, do not raise different questions of safety or effectiveness.
Specifically, with regards to the Advanced Flow Operating Mode, the proposed device is substantially equivalent to the Bariatric Operating Mode of the primary predicate device, Insufflator 50L FM134. The main technological differences between the Advanced Flow Operating Mode of the proposed device and the Bariatric Operating Mode of the primary predicate device, Insufflator 50L FM134, consist of an increased maximum gas supply pressure and a special "Intelligent Steady Insufflation" algorithm (Steady Control Feature) that is automatically activated if a large leakage is detected that cannot be compensated with the "conventional intermitted insufflation cycles" of the proposed device. With the Steady Control Feature of the Advanced Flow Operating Mode active, the length of the insufflation cycles are extended compared to the "conventional intermitted insufflation cycles". The Advanced Flow Operating Mode of the proposed device is designed with two safety features to prevent a rise in abdominal pressure above the set value during the extended insufflation cycles of the Steady Control Feature: (1) the plausibility check flow; and (2) the plausibility check pressure. Both the plausibility check flow and pressure are performed permanently while the Steady Control Feature is active, to detect any change in the abdominal pressure and if required to deactivated the Steady Control Feature during operation of the Advanced Flow Operating Mode.
In addition, with regards to the TAMIS Operating Mode, the proposed device is substantially equivalent to the secondary predicate device, SurgiQuest AirSeal iFS System. In addition, the smoke evacuation function and the smoke evacuation tube sets of the proposed device can be found in the reference device, Olympus High Flow Insufflation Unit UHI-4, and secondary predicate device, SurgiQuest AirSeal iFS System. Finally, with regards to the PNEUMOCLEAR™ tube sets with integrated humidification media, these components can be found in the reference device, Insuflow.
