The device description and performance studies focus on the electrical and structural integrity of a simple cable, with no mention of AI/ML terms or functionalities.
No.
The device is a cable that delivers electrical current to electrosurgical devices or accessories; it does not directly provide a therapeutic effect itself.
No
The device is a Reusable Monopolar Active Cord, which is used to deliver electrical current from an electrosurgical unit to electrosurgical devices or accessories. Its function is to provide energy for surgical procedures, not to diagnose medical conditions or diseases.
No
The device description clearly states it is a physical cord with connectors and an insulated cable, which are hardware components. The performance studies also focus on physical and electrical testing of this hardware.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is for delivering electrical current during endoscopic procedures. This is a therapeutic/surgical function, not a diagnostic one performed on in vitro samples.
- Device Description: The description reinforces its role in connecting an electrosurgical unit to an endoscopic accessory for delivering energy. This is consistent with a surgical tool, not an IVD.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention anything about analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information based on in vitro testing.
IVD devices are specifically designed to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device's function is to facilitate a surgical procedure.

Dear Mr. Land:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

3. Description of Device
The Reusable Monopolar Active Cord is used during endoscopic procedures to provide monopolar energy from an Electrosurgical Generator Unit (ESU) to an Active Endoscopic accessory.
The Reusable Monopolar Active Cord consists of a male ESU end and a female device end connected via an insulated cable. The male ESU end uses a bovie style connector to connect to an ESU. The female device side connects to the active connector of an Active Endoscopic accessory.
4. Indications for Use
The Reusable Monopolar Active Cord is intended to deliver monopolar electrical current from the electrosurgical unit to electrosurgical devices or accessories requiring monopolar electrical current during endoscopic procedures.
Description of Technological Similarities and Differences ട്.
The Reusable Monopolar Active Cord is very similar to Model SB 223 BiPolar Cord Set in Indications for Use and mode of operation. The differences between the Reusable Monopolar Active Cord and the Predicate are the type of energy provided to the device, connection to the Active Endoscopic accessories, and the use life. The predicate device and the proposed device differ in the application of energy. The predicate device is used for Bipolar applications whereas the proposed device is used for Monopolar applications. Monopolar and Bipolar
5
applications differ in the path the energy takes. In Bipolar applications the active device transmits the energy to an electrosurgical device and completes the electric circuit. In Monopolar applications the active device transmits the energy to an electrosurgical device and a separate return device completes the electric circuit. The differences between Monopolar and Bipolar applications are inconsequential to an Active Cord device because both devices transmit energy from an electrosurgical generator to an electrosurgical device. The connections to Active Endoscopic accessory are different geometries between the proposed and predicate device. Both connections have a conductive insert with an internal diameter capable of connecting to Active Endoscopic accessories, but the proposed device has a step feature to provide an audible click and tactile feedback when connected to an Active Endoscopic accessory. Another difference between the proposed and predicate devices is the use life of the devices. The predicate device is single use and the proposed device is reusable. Although the predicate is single use, the devices are not patient contacting and cleaning instructions are provided to the user in the Instructions for Use. These proposed changes raise no new concerns of safety and effectiveness when compared to the predicate device.
