Device Description
The Laparoscope (Model: 4KA0、4KA0R、4KA30、4KA30R、4KA45、4KA45R) is used in medical institutions. Laparoscopes are tubular optical instruments used to visualize or image a patient's anatomy during minimally invasive, endoscopic procedures for examination, diagnosis or therapy. The Laparoscope transmits light in both the visible and near infrared spectrum to illuminate and image the anatomy, then forms and relays the image of the surgical site to a camera system for processing and display.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a standard optical laparoscope and its function of transmitting images for processing and display. There is no mention of AI, ML, or any related technologies in the device description, intended use, or performance studies. The "image processing" mentioned is a standard function of camera systems and does not imply AI/ML.

No
The device is described as being used for observation and imaging, and to "visualize or image a patient's anatomy during minimally invasive, endoscopic procedures for examination, diagnosis or therapy." While it can be used during therapy (surgical procedures), its function is solely for imaging and visualization, not for directly delivering therapeutic action.

Yes

Explanation: The device description states that laparoscopes are used for "examination, diagnosis or therapy," and the intended use mentions "observation and imaging." These functions include diagnostic purposes, even if therapy is also a goal.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "Laparoscope," which is a tubular optical instrument, indicating it is a hardware device. While it mentions image processing, this is done by a separate camera system, and the core device is the physical laparoscope.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections. They are used outside of the body (in vitro).
  • Device Function: The description clearly states that the Laparoscope is a tubular optical instrument used to visualize or image a patient's anatomy during surgery by entering the human body. It is used for observation and imaging within the body.

Therefore, since the device is used inside the body for direct visualization and imaging during surgery, it does not fit the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic. It is a surgical imaging device.

Dear Fu Wang:

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 (the 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 available 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.

Nonconforming product; and 21 CFR 820.100, Corrective and preventive action. Please note that regardless of whether a change requires premarket review, the QS regulation requires device manufacturers to review and approve changes to device design and production (21 CFR 820.30 and 21 CFR 820.70) and document changes and approvals in the device master record (21 CFR 820.181).

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR Part 803) for devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR Part 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/combination-products/guidance-regulatory-information/postmarketing-safety-reportingcombination-products); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR Part 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR Parts 1000-1050.
