Device Description
The INTELLIO SHIFT System combines two previously cleared technologies into one system. The INTELLIO SHIFT System is composed of (1) a controller that combines the radio frequency coblation/coagulation technology of the previously cleared (K210423) WEREWOLF+ COBLATION System with the mechanical resection technology of the previously cleared (K062849) DYONICS POWER II Control System and (2) a wired foot pedal that controls these two technologies. The INTELLIO SHIFT System utilizes the same technologies as the predicates and matches the performance requirements of the WEREWOLF+ and DYONICS POWER II controllers. The INTELLIO SHIFT System allows the user to select and operate two established resection technologies using the same device: Mechanical Resection (MR) for cutting and tissue removal, and Bipolar Radio Frequency (RF) for coblation/coagulation. The INTELLIO SHIFT System is compatible with various accessories including RF coblation/coagulation Wands, a Mechanical Resection Motor Drive Unit Handpiece, and a wired foot pedal. The INTELLIO SHIFT System interfaces with a handpiece Motor Drive Unit (MDU) shaver, to provide mechanical cutting and tissue removal. The INTELLIO SHIFT System interfaces with RF Wands to utilize bipolar RF technology for the resection, ablation, and coagulation of tissues and hemostasis of blood vessels in various arthroscopic, and orthopedic procedures. Additionally, the INTELLIO SHIFT System can be interfaced directly with 510K cleared fluid management systems. INTELLIO SHIFT provides an optional interface for the INTELLIO Connected Tower, which is composed of Smith and Nephew equipment typically used in arthroscopic or orthopedic surgical procedures and stored near each other on a single cart. While the INTELLIO SHIFT System provides options to healthcare professionals to use both Mechanical Resection and Coblation/Coagulation through the same device and within the same surgery, these technologies cannot be used at the exact same time.

No
The device description explicitly states that it combines two previously cleared technologies and utilizes the same technologies as the predicates. There is no mention of AI or ML in the intended use, device description, or performance studies.

Yes
The device is indicated for various medical procedures such as resection, ablation, and coagulation of tissues, which fall under the scope of therapeutic interventions.

No

The device is indicated for resection, ablation, and coagulation of tissues and hemostasis during arthroscopic and orthopedic procedures, which are therapeutic actions, not diagnostic ones.

No

The device description explicitly states the system is composed of a controller and a wired foot pedal, which are hardware components. It also interfaces with other hardware like RF Wands and a Mechanical Resection Motor Drive Unit Handpiece. While software is involved in controlling these technologies, the device itself is not solely software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the system is for the "Resection of soft and osseous tissues" and "Resection, ablation, and coagulation of soft tissues and hemostasis of blood vessels during the following arthroscopic and orthopedic procedures." These are surgical procedures performed directly on the patient's body.
  • Device Description: The device description details a system that combines mechanical resection and bipolar radio frequency technologies for surgical intervention. It interfaces with handpieces, wands, and fluid management systems used during surgery.
  • Lack of In Vitro Activities: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens (like blood, tissue, or urine) outside of the body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment.

IVD devices are specifically designed to perform tests on samples taken from the human body in vitro (outside the body). The INTELLIO SHIFT System is an in vivo device used directly on the patient during surgery.

    1. Device Description Summary: The INTELLIO SHIFT System combines two previously cleared technologies into one system. The INTELLIO SHIFT System is composed of (1) a controller that combines the radio frequency coblation/coagulation technology of the previously cleared (K210423) WEREWOLF+ COBLATION System with the mechanical resection technology of the previously cleared (K062849) DYONICS POWER II Control System and (2) a wired foot pedal that controls these two technologies. The INTELLIO SHIFT System utilizes the same technologies as the predicates and matches the performance requirements of the WEREWOLF+ and DYONICS POWER II controllers. The INTELLIO SHIFT System allows the user to select and operate two established resection technologies using the same device: Mechanical Resection (MR) for cutting and tissue removal, and Bipolar Radio Frequency (RF) for coblation/coagulation. The INTELLIO SHIFT System is compatible with various accessories including RF coblation/coagulation Wands, a Mechanical Resection Motor Drive Unit Handpiece, and a wired foot pedal. The INTELLIO SHIFT System interfaces with a handpiece Motor Drive Unit (MDU) shaver, to provide mechanical cutting and tissue removal. The INTELLIO SHIFT System interfaces with RF Wands to utilize bipolar RF technology for the resection, ablation, and coagulation of tissues and hemostasis of blood vessels in various arthroscopic, and orthopedic procedures. Additionally, the INTELLIO SHIFT System can be interfaced directly with 510K cleared fluid management systems. INTELLIO SHIFT provides an optional interface for the INTELLIO Connected Tower, which is composed of Smith and Nephew equipment typically used in arthroscopic or orthopedic surgical procedures and stored near each other on a single cart. While the INTELLIO SHIFT System provides options to healthcare professionals to use both Mechanical Resection and Coblation/Coagulation through the same device and within the same surgery, these technologies cannot be used at the exact same time.
