The summary describes a basic laparoscopic electrode for cutting and coagulation, with no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or data analysis that would suggest the use of such technologies.
No
The device is used for cutting and coagulating tissue during surgery, which are surgical procedures, not therapeutic ones designed to treat diseases or conditions.
No
The device is described as being used to "cut and or coagulate during laparoscopic surgical procedures," which are therapeutic actions, not diagnostic ones.
No
The device description clearly states "Resistick Solid Laparoscopic Electrodes," indicating a physical hardware component used in surgical procedures.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to "cut and or coagulate during laparoscopic surgical procedures." This describes a surgical tool used directly on a patient's tissue, not a device used to examine specimens in vitro (outside the body).
- Device Description: "Resistick Solid Laparoscopic Electrodes" further supports the description of a surgical instrument.
- Lack of IVD Indicators: The document does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
- Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
- Providing diagnostic information based on sample analysis
- Mentioning reagents, assays, or laboratory procedures
Therefore, this device falls under the category of a surgical instrument, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

§ 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).

Mr. J. Robert Saron President Aaron Medical Industries, Inc. 7100 30th Avenue North St. Petersburg, Florida 33710-2902 Re: K971621 Resistick Solid Laparoscopic Electrodes Dated: April 30, 1997 Received: May 1, 1997 Regulatory class: II 21 CFR §884.4160/Product code: 85 KNF
Dear Mr. Saron:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device 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 53 1 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 results 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. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR 807.97).
