The summary describes a mechanical device for applying clips and makes no mention of AI or ML.
No
This device is used to apply clips for surgical procedures (creating vascular anastomoses), which is an intervention during a medical procedure, not a therapeutic device for ongoing treatment or diagnosis.
No
Explanation: The device is described as applying titanium clips for the creation of vascular anastomoses, which is a surgical procedure, not a diagnostic one. It's used for treatment, not for identifying a disease or condition.
No
The device description clearly states it is a "clip cartridge" that "fires multiple titanium clips," indicating it is a physical hardware device that applies clips, not a software-only device.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device is for applying clips in vivo (within the body) for creating vascular anastomoses and attaching synthetic vascular prostheses. This is a surgical procedure performed directly on the patient.
- Device Description: The description reinforces this by stating the clips are fired "around the junction of 2 vessels," which is an internal anatomical site.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: IVD devices are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, tissue) outside the body to provide information about a patient's health status. The provided information does not mention any such use or analysis of biological samples.
Therefore, the AUTO SUTURE* VCS* Anastomotic** clip cartridge is a surgical device used for internal procedures, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Dear Mr. Clavelli:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to 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 (Act). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. 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.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the current Good Manufacturing Practice requirements , as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic (QS) inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations.
