Intended Use
The trocar sleeves and trocars serve to gain access to body cavities. The dilation set is used for enlarging the access; trocar sleeves of smaller diameters can be replaced with trocar sleeves of larger diameters. For examination, diagnosis, and/or therapy when used in conjunction with endoscopic accessories in the various medical specialties such as surgery, urology and, gynecology when used by suitably trained and qualified specialists.
Device Description
The trocar sleeves are part of the MICRO and MINI instrument set for laparoscopic microsurgery, particularily suitable for diagnostics, smaller interventions, outpatient, and pediatric laparoscopy. The instruments smaller diameter allows better cosmetic effects than the larger diameters because they are less invasive. The trocar sleeves and trocars have comparable biocompatible device materials as previous R. Wolf devices. The dimensions are smaller to perform minimally invasive laparoscopy. Partly the trocar sleeves are without automatic valves as a result of minimizing the sealing housing.

Not Found

No
The document describes a set of mechanical surgical instruments (trocars and sleeves) and does not mention any software, algorithms, or data processing capabilities that would indicate the use of AI or ML.

No
The device is used for gaining access to body cavities and enlarging access for examination, diagnosis, and/or therapy when used in conjunction with endoscopic accessories, but it is not itself a therapeutic device. It facilitates therapeutic procedures rather than performing them directly.

Yes

The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the device is for "examination, diagnosis, and/or therapy when used in conjunction with endoscopic accessories". The "Device Description" also mentions its suitability for "diagnostics".

No

The device description explicitly details physical components (trocar sleeves, trocars, dilation set) made of biocompatible materials, indicating a hardware-based medical 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 that the device is used to gain access to body cavities for examination, diagnosis, and/or therapy in conjunction with endoscopic accessories. This describes a surgical or interventional procedure, not a diagnostic test performed on samples outside the body.
  • Device Description: The description details surgical instruments (trocar sleeves and trocars) used for minimally invasive laparoscopic surgery. This aligns with surgical tools, not diagnostic reagents or equipment used to analyze biological samples.
  • Lack of IVD Indicators: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting specific analytes, or providing diagnostic information based on in vitro testing.

IVD devices are specifically designed to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device's function is to facilitate access for visualization and intervention within the body.

Intended Use / Indications for Use

The trocar sleeves and trocars serve to provide artificial access to body cavities. Trocar sleeves of smaller diameters can be replaced with trocar sleeves of bigger diameters with the dilation set.

§ 884.1720 Gynecologic laparoscope and accessories.

(a)
Identification. A gynecologic laparoscope is a device used to permit direct viewing of the organs within the peritoneum by a telescopic system introduced through the abdominal wall. It is used to perform diagnostic and surgical procedures on the female genital organs. This generic type of device may include: Trocar and cannula, instruments used through an operating channel, scope preheater, light source and cables, and component parts.(b)
Classification. (1) Class II (performance standards).(2) Class I for gynecologic laparoscope accessories that are not part of a specialized instrument or device delivery system, do not have adapters, connector channels, or do not have portals for electrosurgical, lasers, or other power sources. Such gynecologic laparosope accessory instruments include: the lens cleaning brush, biopsy brush, clip applier (without clips), applicator, cannula (without trocar or valves), ligature carrier/needle holder, clamp/hemostat/grasper, curette, instrument guide, ligature passing and knotting instrument, suture needle (without suture), retractor, mechanical (noninflatable), snare, stylet, forceps, dissector, mechanical (noninflatable), scissors, and suction/irrigation probe. The devices subject to this paragraph (b)(2) are exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter, subject to the limitations in § 884.9.
