The device is a simple electrical cable for connecting instruments to a generator, with no mention of AI/ML terms or functionalities.
No.
The Bipolar HF Cables are accessories used to connect HF instruments to HF devices, directing electrical current. They do not directly provide therapy themselves but facilitate the operation of therapeutic HF devices.
No
The device is described as a cable used to transmit electrical current between HF instruments and devices, not to diagnose medical conditions. Its intended use and description focus on connectivity and power transmission for high-frequency instruments.
No
The device is described as "Bipolar HF Cables" and its function is to direct electrical current, indicating it is a physical hardware component.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to connect HF instruments to HF devices to direct high-frequency electrical current. This is a function related to surgical or therapeutic procedures, not the examination of specimens derived from the human body for the purpose of providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment.
- Device Description: The description reinforces the intended use of directing electrical current to an instrument.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, reagents, calibrators, controls, or any other components typically associated with in vitro diagnostics.
The device is an accessory used in conjunction with high-frequency surgical or therapeutic equipment.

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 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 vour 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 current Good Manufacturing Practice requirement, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (OS) 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 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.
