No
The document describes simple laparoscopic tips and accessories, with no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or data-driven performance metrics.
No
The device serves as an accessory (tips) to an aspiration-irrigation device for use during laparoscopic and electrosurgical procedures, rather than directly providing therapy.
No
The device is described as an accessory for an aspiration-irrigation device used during laparoscopic and electrosurgical procedures. Its function is to facilitate surgical interventions, not to diagnose a condition or disease.
No
The device description clearly outlines physical components like "Threaded adapter," "stainless tip," and "Insulation Sheath," indicating it is a hardware device, not software-only.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use describes the device as an accessory to an aspiration-irrigation device used during laparoscopic and electrosurgical procedures. These are surgical procedures performed directly on the patient's body.
- Device Description: The device description details components like threaded adapters, probes, tips (spatula, hooks, needle), and insulation sheaths. These are all physical tools used in surgical interventions.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, tissue) in vitro (outside the body) to provide information about a physiological state, health, or disease.
IVD devices are specifically designed for testing biological samples outside the body to aid in diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device is clearly a surgical tool used on the patient.

§ 884.4160 Unipolar endoscopic coagulator-cutter and accessories.
(a)
Identification. A unipolar endoscopic coagulator-cutter is a device designed to destroy tissue with high temperatures by directing a high frequency electrical current through the tissue between an energized probe and a grounding plate. It is used in female sterilization and in other operative procedures under endoscopic observation. This generic type of device may include the following accessories: an electrical generator, probes and electrical cables, and a patient grounding plate. This generic type of device does not include devices used to perform female sterilization under hysteroscopic observation.(b)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).

| Insulated Sheath | black | black |
6.3 SHEATH DESIGN
The insulation sheaths of both companies are designed to be adjustable to the desired length of the surgeon. The difference lies in the ability of the Endo-Ltd, laparoscopic unipolar tips to adjust and stay in a fixed position until moved by the surgeon. American Hydro-Surgical devices do not have the ratcheting mechanism.

7. CONCLUSION DRAWN FROM DATA SUPPORTING EQUIVALENCE DETERMINATION
The Endo-Tech Ltd., Inc. laparoscopic unipolar tips are designed to be equivalent to the electrosurgical attachments that are manufactured by American Hydro-Surgical. These tips are to be used in conjunction with the Endo-Aid(K#930756) during laparoscopic procedures. These tips, along with the Endo-Aid, enables hydrodissection of tissue, aspiration and irrigation of fluids, lavage, blunt dissection, smoke evacuation, and the delivery of electrosurgical energy.
