Intended Use
The Disposable Semi Automatic Biopsy Instrument is intended for obtaining percutaneous or surgical histological core samples from soft tissues such as breast, kidney, liver, lung and various soft tissue masses. The device is not intended for use in bone. The extent of histological abnormality cannot be reliably determined from its mammographic appearance. Therefore the extent of removal of the imaged evidence of an abnormality does not predict the extent of removal of a histological abnormality (e.g. malignancy). When the sampled abnormality is not histologically benign, it is essential that the tissue margins be examined for completeness of removal using standard surgical procedures
Device Description
The disposable semi automatic biopsy instrument (hereinafter referred to as biopsy instrument) is divided into A and B in accordance with different configuration. A contains semi automatic biopsy needle. B contains semi automatic biopsy needle and coaxial biopsy needle. The disposable semi automatic biopsy instrument consists of cannula, stylet, protecting sheath and mechanical powering parts. The coaxial biopsy needle consists of canular housing, canula, marker, stylet with sharping, stylet without sharping (option), stylet housing and protecting sheath. It is available in several gauge sizes and lengths. Both the A and B of the device have printed gauge size indicator that is color coded according to the various gauge sizes (yellow= 20G, pink= 18G, purple= 16 G, and green= 14G). The needles have a protecting sheath. The disposable semi automatic biopsy instrument is loaded a semi automatic biopsy needle that is visible in ultrasound. The device is equipped with a beveled needle with centimeter markings and an echogenic distal tip for visualization during ultrasound imaging. Centimeter markings on the cannula surface permits an easy identification of the insertion depth with the maximum safety for the patient.During use, the position of the device is monitored using technique. The inner stylet which has a triple face ultra-sharp tip to penetrate easily also into fibrous tissues is equipped with a slot/ groove (a 19mm specimen notch) to collect a biopsy specimen. During use, the position of the device is monitored using imaging technique. The inner stylet is equipped with a slot (specimen notch) to collect a biopsy specimen. The materials used for construction of disposable semi automatic biopsy instrument are typical for this type of medical device. The only material in direct patient contact is the stainless steel 06Cr19Ni10. As the device is single use device, which is individually packaged sterile devices. The packaging is compatible with the product's EO sterilization method. The sterilization validation confirms the packaging is qualified bacterial film to maintain the sterilization condition of the device.

No
The description focuses on the mechanical aspects of a biopsy instrument and does not mention any AI or ML components or functionalities.

No
This device is intended for obtaining tissue samples for diagnostic purposes, not for treating a condition or disease.

Yes

Explanation: The device is used to obtain histological core samples from soft tissues. These samples are then used to determine the extent of histological abnormality, which is a diagnostic purpose.

No

The device description clearly outlines a physical, disposable biopsy instrument with needles, cannulas, stylets, and mechanical parts, indicating it is a hardware device, not software-only.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) outside of the body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Function: The Disposable Semi Automatic Biopsy Instrument is used to obtain a tissue sample from within the body. It is a tool for collecting the specimen, not for analyzing it.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it is for "obtaining percutaneous or surgical histological core samples." This is a procedure to collect tissue, not a diagnostic test performed on a sample.

While the tissue sample obtained by this device may be used for subsequent in vitro diagnostic testing (like histology), the biopsy instrument itself is a surgical/procedural device, not an IVD.

The technological characteristics of the subject device are identical to those of predicate device. The subject device has the same basic design as the predicate device. The comparison between the subject and predicate devices is based on the following:

  • Same intended use
  • · Same indications for use
  • · Similar material types that meet ISO 10993 biocompatibility requirements
  • · Same sterilization methods
  • Same fundamental technology/principal of operation/user interface

The disposable biopsy device needle designs display minor differences between the subject device and the predicate devices for gauge and needle length. The Max Needle gauge of the current device are bigger than those of the predicate device, but the comparative performance testing results per FDA recognized standards ISO 9626 and ISO 7864 on the subject device and the predicate device shown there is no significant risk raised by the difference.

9.0 Conclusion

The conclusions drawn from the comparison and analysis above demonstrate that the proposed device is as safe, as effective, and performs as well as the legally marketed predicated device in K160316 and raises no new questions of safety or effectiveness. The differences between both devices are insignificant in terms of safety and effectiveness.
