Intended Use
The electrosurgical probes and devices are to be used with commercially available R.F. generators, endoscopes including hysteroscopes, resectoscopes, cystoscopes and laparoscopes, suction/irrigation systems. These devices can be used for laparoscopic, hysteroscopic, cystoscopic, resectoscopic and other endoscopic and open surgical procedures including TURP, BPH, prostate surgery, and other soft tissue removal using cutting/coagulation/ablation mode of R.F. energy.

No
The summary describes a standard electrosurgical device and makes no mention of AI or ML.

Yes
The device is used for surgical procedures such as cutting, coagulation, and ablation of soft tissue, which directly treats medical conditions.

No
The device is described as electrosurgical probes and devices used for surgical procedures involving cutting, coagulation, and ablation, which are therapeutic actions, not diagnostic ones.

No

The device description explicitly mentions "Electrodes/Probes/Devices," which are hardware components used in electrosurgical procedures. The intended use also describes the use of these probes and devices with hardware like R.F. generators and endoscopes.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes the device as being used in vivo (within the body) for surgical procedures involving cutting, coagulation, and ablation of soft tissue using RF energy. IVDs are used in vitro (outside the body) to examine specimens like blood, urine, or tissue to diagnose diseases or conditions.
  • Device Description: The description "Electrodes/Probes/Devices" aligns with surgical tools used directly on tissue, not for analyzing samples.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, diagnostic testing, or any of the typical components or processes associated with IVDs.

Therefore, this device is a surgical tool used for therapeutic purposes, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Dear Mr. Desai:

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 Devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act). You may, therefore; 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 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 requirement, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic OS 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 conceming 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 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 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predication 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) 594-4613. Additionally, for question 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).
