Intended Use
The Magnetic Surgical System is designed to grasp and retract the body and the fundus of the gallbladder in laparoscopic cholecystectomy procedures to facilitate access and visualization of the surgical site. The device is indicated for use in patients within a BMI range of 20 to 34 kg/m².
Device Description
The Magnetic Surgical System is composed of two hand-held instruments: a Magnetic Grasper Device and an external Magnetic Controller. The Magnetic Grasper Device is comprised of two main components: a Detachable Grasper and a Delivery/Retrieval Shaft. Once the Magnetic Grasper Device is inserted and the Grasper is attached to the desired tissue, the Detachable Grasper can be detached from the Delivery/Retrieval Shaft and controlled externally using the Magnetic Controller. Traction of the tissue is maintained through the magnetic field attraction between the Grasper and the Magnetic Controller. The Magnetic Grasper Device is compatible with a ≥ 10 mm laparoscopic port. The Magnetic Controller is a single unit with handles that is held external to the body and emits a magnetic field that attracts the Detachable Grasper. Once the Detachable Grasper is attached to the desired tissue and detached from the Delivery/Retrieval Shaft, the Magnetic Controller is placed external to the body to magnetically attract the Grasper to manipulate the target tissue. Adjusting the distance between the Magnetic Controller and the Detachable Grasper will modulate the magnetic attraction used for tissue retraction/manipulation.
More Information

No
The description focuses on mechanical and magnetic manipulation, with no mention of AI/ML terms or functions.

No
The device is designed for grasping and retracting tissue during surgery to facilitate access and visualization, not for treating or diagnosing a disease or condition.

No
Explanation: The device is described as a surgical system designed to grasp and retract tissue during laparoscopic procedures, not to diagnose medical conditions. Its function is interventional, not diagnostic.

No

The device description clearly outlines physical hardware components: a Magnetic Grasper Device (with a Detachable Grasper and Delivery/Retrieval Shaft) and an external Magnetic Controller. These are tangible instruments used in a surgical procedure, not solely software.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. These tests are performed outside of the body (in vitro).
  • Device Function: The description clearly states that this device is a "Magnetic Surgical System" designed to "grasp and retract the body and the fundus of the gallbladder in laparoscopic cholecystectomy procedures." This is a surgical tool used within the body during a surgical procedure.
  • No Sample Analysis: There is no mention of the device analyzing any biological samples or performing any diagnostic tests. Its function is purely mechanical manipulation of tissue during surgery.

Therefore, based on the provided information, the Magnetic Surgical System is a surgical device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic.
