More Information

Not Found

No
The description focuses on the mechanical components and function of an electrosurgical snare, with no mention of AI or ML.

Yes
The device is described as electrosurgically removing GI tract polyps. Electrosurgery is a therapeutic procedure, and removing polyps is a form of treatment.

No
The device is described as an electrosurgical tool for removing polyps, not for identifying or diagnosing medical conditions. It performs a therapeutic function.

No

The device description explicitly lists physical components like a handle, cable, snare loop, and 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 is to "electrosurgically remove GI tract polyps through the channel of an endoscope." This describes a surgical procedure performed on the patient's body, not a test performed on a sample taken from the patient.
  • Device Description: The description details a physical instrument (handle, cable, snare loop, sheath) used for a surgical action (removing polyps). This is consistent with a surgical device, not an IVD.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information based on laboratory testing.

IVDs are devices used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or screening purposes. This device's function is purely interventional/surgical.

Dear Mr. Poje:

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 Good Manufacturing Practice for Medical Devices: General (GMP) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic GMP 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.

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801 and additionally 809.10 for in vitro diagnostic devices), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4616. Additionally, for questions on the promotion and advertising of your device, please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4639.
