Intended Use
The HERMES OR Control Center is indicated for use with Stryker Endoscopy 882 Camera, Quantum 5000 Light Source, Stryker SE5 Shaver, W.O.M. 20L Insufflator, W.O.M. 2.0L Arthroscopy Pump and Berchtold Surgical Lights. It can be used in general laparoscopy, nasopharyngoscopy, ear endoscopy, and sinuscopy where a laparoscope/endoscope is indicated for use. A few examples of the more common endoscopic surgeries are laparoscopic cholecystectomy, laparoscopic hernia repair, laparoscopic appendectomy, laparoscopic pelvic lymph node dissection, laparoscopically assisted hysterectomy, laparoscopic & thorascopic anterior spinal fusion, decompression fixation, wedge resection, lung biopsy, pleural biopsy, dorsal sympathectomy, pleurodesis, internal mammary artery dissection for coronary artery bypass, coronary artery bypass grafting where endoscopic visualization is indicated and examination of the evacuated cardiac chamber during performance of valve replacement.
Device Description
The HERMES OR Control Center is a computer-driven system whose basic function is offer the additional option for surgeon selection of attachment device parameter settings utilizing voice control. The intent of the HERMES OR Control Center is to allow for simplified and more direct control of medical device settings by the physician, thereby eliminating the necessity of using the various interfaces existing on the Stryker Endoscopy 882 Camera, Quantum 5000 Light Source, Stryker SE5 Shaver, W.O.M. 20L Insufflator, W.O.M. 2.0L Arthroscopy Pump and Berchtold Surgical Lights in the Operating setting, or relying upon verbal communications between the surgeon and other personnel in the operation room in order to adjust surgical equipment.
More Information

Not Found

Unknown
The device description mentions "voice control" and "computer-driven system" for controlling other medical devices. While voice control can utilize AI/ML for speech recognition and processing, the summary does not explicitly state that AI/ML is used for this function or any other function of the device. The lack of mention of AI/ML terms, image processing, training/test sets, or performance metrics typically associated with AI/ML further supports the "Unknown" determination based solely on the provided text.

No
The device is a control center that allows surgeons to adjust settings of other medical devices using voice control, rather than directly treating a condition or disease.

No

The device description clearly states its function is to "offer the additional option for surgeon selection of attachment device parameter settings utilizing voice control" and to "allow for simplified and more direct control of medical device settings by the physician." This indicates it is a control system for other surgical equipment, not a device used to diagnose medical conditions or provide diagnostic information.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "computer-driven system" and its function is to control other medical devices. While it utilizes voice control (likely software-driven), the system itself is described as a computer system interacting with hardware devices, not purely software. The predicate device also includes "Accessories," further suggesting hardware components.

Based on the provided information, the HERMES OR Control Center is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
  • HERMES OR Control Center Function: The description clearly states that the HERMES OR Control Center is a computer-driven system that allows surgeons to control the settings of various surgical devices (camera, light source, shaver, insufflator, pump, surgical lights) using voice control.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is to simplify the control of surgical equipment during endoscopic procedures performed directly on the patient.
  • No Specimen Analysis: There is no mention of the device analyzing any biological specimens. Its function is purely to interface with and control other surgical instruments.

Therefore, the HERMES OR Control Center falls under the category of surgical equipment control systems, not In Vitro Diagnostic devices.

§ 876.1500 Endoscope and accessories.

(a)
Identification. An endoscope and accessories is a device used to provide access, illumination, and allow observation or manipulation of body cavities, hollow organs, and canals. The device consists of various rigid or flexible instruments that are inserted into body spaces and may include an optical system for conveying an image to the user's eye and their accessories may assist in gaining access or increase the versatility and augment the capabilities of the devices. Examples of devices that are within this generic type of device include cleaning accessories for endoscopes, photographic accessories for endoscopes, nonpowered anoscopes, binolcular attachments for endoscopes, pocket battery boxes, flexible or rigid choledochoscopes, colonoscopes, diagnostic cystoscopes, cystourethroscopes, enteroscopes, esophagogastroduodenoscopes, rigid esophagoscopes, fiberoptic illuminators for endoscopes, incandescent endoscope lamps, biliary pancreatoscopes, proctoscopes, resectoscopes, nephroscopes, sigmoidoscopes, ureteroscopes, urethroscopes, endomagnetic retrievers, cytology brushes for endoscopes, and lubricating jelly for transurethral surgical instruments. This section does not apply to endoscopes that have specialized uses in other medical specialty areas and that are covered by classification regulations in other parts of the device classification regulations.(b)
