Intended Use
The Monik™ - Disposable Endoscopic Trocar has applications in abdominal, thoracic and gynecologic minimally invasive surgical procedures to establish a path of entry for endoscopic instruments. The trocar may be used with or without visualization for primary and secondary insertions.
Device Description
The Disposable Endoscopic Trocar is sterile single patient use instrument consisting of a radiolucent sleeve and obturator in sizes 5mm, 10mm, 12mm long and 15mm diameter. The obturator contains a clear tapered optical element. The 10mm, 12mm diameter obturators accommodate an appropriately sided 0° endoscope and provide visibility of individual tissue layers during insertion. The trocar sleeves for the 5 mm, 10 mm, 12mm, 12mm long and 15 mm devices contain two seals. An outer integrated removable self-adjusting seal that accommodates instruments ranging from 5 mm to 15 mm in diameter where indicated and an internal seal. Together these two seals minimize gas leakage when instruments are inserted or withdrawn through the trocar. A stopcock valve is compatible with standard luer lock fittings and provides attachment for gas insufflation and desufflation.

The provided text states "Reference Device(s) Not Found". Therefore, there are no reference devices to list.

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the mechanical and material properties of a disposable surgical trocar, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities.

No
The device is a surgical instrument used to establish a path of entry for other endoscopic instruments during minimally invasive procedures. It does not directly provide therapy or treatment.

No

This device is a surgical instrument (trocar) designed to create a path of entry for other endoscopic instruments during minimally invasive procedures. Its purpose is to facilitate access rather than to diagnose medical conditions or provide diagnostic information.

No

The device description clearly outlines physical components (sleeve, obturator, seals, stopcock valve) and the performance studies focus on physical properties, biocompatibility, and sterilization of these physical components. There is no mention of software as a component or function of the device.

Based on the provided information, the Monik™ - Disposable Endoscopic Trocar is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device is used in surgical procedures to establish a path of entry for endoscopic instruments. This is a surgical tool used in vivo (within the body).
  • Device Description: The description details a physical instrument (trocar, sleeve, obturator, seals, stopcock valve) used for surgical access and gas management.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens in vitro (outside the body), such as blood, tissue, or other bodily fluids, to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on physical properties, biocompatibility, sterilization, packaging, and shelf life, which are typical for surgical devices, not IVDs.

IVD devices are designed to perform tests on samples taken from the body to provide diagnostic information. The Monik™ Trocar is a surgical instrument used to facilitate a surgical procedure.
