Device Description
The Laparo CO2-Pneu 2232 supplies CO2 gas from cylinders or central gas supplies to dilate the abdomen by CO2 gas insufflation.
More Information

No
The summary describes a device for insufflating CO2 gas and makes no mention of AI or ML capabilities.

No.
This device is used to generate and maintain pneumoperitoneum during laparoscopic procedures, which is a preparatory step for diagnostic or operative laparoscopy, not a therapeutic intervention itself.

No
Explanation: The device is described as generating and maintaining pneumoperitoneum for diagnostic and operative laparoscopy by supplying CO2 gas to dilate the abdomen. While it can be used in diagnostic procedures, its function is mechanical (insufflation) rather than directly diagnosing conditions. It facilitates the procedure during which diagnosis may occur, but it is not a diagnostic device itself.

No

The device description explicitly states it "supplies CO2 gas from cylinders or central gas supplies to dilate the abdomen by CO2 gas insufflation," indicating it is a hardware device that handles gas.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to "generate and maintain pneumoperitoneum CO3 gas" for "diagnostic and operative laparoscopy." This describes a device used during a medical procedure on a patient, not a device used to test samples outside of the body (in vitro).
  • Device Description: The description confirms it "supplies CO2 gas... to dilate the abdomen by CO2 gas insufflation." This is a direct action on the patient's body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), performing tests on these samples, or providing diagnostic information based on such analysis.

IVD devices are specifically designed to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device does not fit that description.

(a)
Identification. A laparoscopic insufflator is a device used to facilitate the use of the laparoscope by filling the peritoneal cavity with gas to distend it.(b)
Classification. (1) Class II (performance standards).(2) Class I for tubing and tubing/filter kits which include accessory instruments that are not used to effect intra-abdominal insufflation (pneumoperitoneum).

1.0 Description

The Laparo CO2-Pneu 2232 supplies CO2 gas from cylinders or central gas supplies to dilate the abdomen by CO2 gas insufflation.

2.0 Intended Use

The Laparo CO2-Pneu generates and maintains pneumoperitoneum CO2 gas and can be used in diagnostic and operative laparoscopy.

Technological Characteristics 3.0

The pressure and flow values are checked by microprocessor control. A series of independent safety devices guarantee safe and problem-free insufflation.

The intra-abdominal pressure can be steplessly preselected between 5 mmHg and 25 mmHg. The pressure is reduced if the intra-abdominal pressure is higher than the preselected value.

The flow rate can be preselected between 1 1/min and 20 1/min in steps of 1 1/min.

The measured values can be displayed on-screen in order to document the pressure, flow and gas consumption values during intervention via video equipment.

Substantial Equivalence 4.0

The Laparo CO,-Pneu 2232 is substantially equivalent to existing 510(k) devices sold by Richard Wolf and to various existing laparoscopic insufflators from Cabot, MP Video, and Karl Storz.

The differences do not affect the safety or effectiveness of the device.

5.0 Performance Data

Performance data not generated.

6.0 Clinical Tests

No clinical tests performed.

7.0 Conclusions Drawn

Laparo CO2-Pneu 2232 was designed and tested to guarantee the safety and effectiveness furing the expected lifetime of the device if it is used according to the instruction manual.

Dear Mr. Casarsa:

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 ievices 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, garket 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 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 (OS) 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.

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) 594-4613. Additionally, for questions on the promotion and advertising of your device, please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4639.
