The Senhance™ Surgical System is intended to assist in the accurate control of laparoscopic instruments for visualization and endoscopic manipulation of tissue including grasping, cutting, blunt and sharp dissection, approximation, ligation, electrocautery, suturing, mobilization. The Senhance Surgical System is intended for use in laparoscopic gynecological surgery, colorectal surgery, cholecystectomy, and inguinal hernia repair. The system is indicated for adult use. It is intended for use by trained physicians in an operating room environment in accordance with the instructions for use.
The Senhance™ 5 mm Monopolar L-Hook Electrode instruments and adapter are intended as additions to the suite of monopolar hook instruments and adapters previously cleared for use with the TransEnterix Senhance™ Surgical System. Three monopolar electrodes and one monopolar electrode adapter are being added. The instruments and adapter are modifications of the predicate TransEnterix® Senhance™ 5 mm Monopolar L-Hook Electrode instruments and adapters FDA cleared through K181517 (October 9, 2018). Like the predicate devices, the subject devices are multi-use surgical devices that are cleaned and steam sterilized by the end user before the first use and after each use.
This document describes the 510(k) summary for the Senhance™ 5 mm Monopolar L-Hook Electrode instruments and adapter, which are additions to the TransEnterix Senhance™ Surgical System. The purpose of this submission is to demonstrate substantial equivalence to previously cleared predicate devices (K181517).
Based on the provided information, the device is an accessory to a surgical system and thus the acceptance criteria relate to its physical and functional performance, rather than diagnostic accuracy.

§ 876.1500 Endoscope and accessories.
(a)
Identification. An endoscope and accessories is a device used to provide access, illumination, and allow observation or manipulation of body cavities, hollow organs, and canals. The device consists of various rigid or flexible instruments that are inserted into body spaces and may include an optical system for conveying an image to the user's eye and their accessories may assist in gaining access or increase the versatility and augment the capabilities of the devices. Examples of devices that are within this generic type of device include cleaning accessories for endoscopes, photographic accessories for endoscopes, nonpowered anoscopes, binolcular attachments for endoscopes, pocket battery boxes, flexible or rigid choledochoscopes, colonoscopes, diagnostic cystoscopes, cystourethroscopes, enteroscopes, esophagogastroduodenoscopes, rigid esophagoscopes, fiberoptic illuminators for endoscopes, incandescent endoscope lamps, biliary pancreatoscopes, proctoscopes, resectoscopes, nephroscopes, sigmoidoscopes, ureteroscopes, urethroscopes, endomagnetic retrievers, cytology brushes for endoscopes, and lubricating jelly for transurethral surgical instruments. This section does not apply to endoscopes that have specialized uses in other medical specialty areas and that are covered by classification regulations in other parts of the device classification regulations.(b)
