The device description is purely mechanical, and there are no mentions of AI, ML, or related concepts in the provided text.

No
Explanation: A therapeutic device is used to treat a disease or condition. Liposuction cannulas are indicated for aesthetic body contouring and general tissue aspiration, which are not necessarily treatments for a disease but rather cosmetic or general medical procedures.

No
The Intended Use / Indications for Use section states the cannulas are "indicated for aesthetic body contouring and general tissue aspiration," which are therapeutic or surgical procedures, not diagnostic ones. There is no mention of the device being used to identify or analyze a condition.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a hollow stainless steel tube with a handle and connector, indicating it is a physical hardware device, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is "aesthetic body contouring and general tissue aspiration." This describes a surgical procedure performed on a living patient, not a test performed on a sample in vitro (outside the body).
  • Device Description: The description of a "hollow stainless steel tube with one or more distal openings and a handle with a suction line connector" is consistent with a surgical instrument used for aspiration, not a device for analyzing biological samples.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The information does not mention any components or functions related to analyzing biological samples (like reagents, detection methods, or measurement of analytes).

IVD devices are specifically designed to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device's purpose is to remove tissue from the body for aesthetic or general aspiration purposes, not for diagnostic testing of that tissue.

§ 878.5040 Suction lipoplasty system.

(a)
Identification. A suction lipoplasty system is a device intended for aesthetic body contouring. The device consists of a powered suction pump (containing a microbial filter on the exhaust and a microbial in-line filter in the connecting tubing between the collection bottle and the safety trap), collection bottle, cannula, and connecting tube. The microbial filters, tubing, collection bottle, and cannula must be capable of being changed between patients. The powered suction pump has a motor with a minimum of1/3 horsepower, a variable vacuum range from 0 to 29.9 inches of mercury, vacuum control valves to regulate the vacuum with accompanying vacuum gauges, a single or double rotary vane (with or without oil), a single or double diaphragm, a single or double piston, and a safety trap.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). Consensus standards and labeling restrictions.

Dear Martin Sargent:

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is sending this letter to notify you of an administrative change related to your previous substantial equivalence (SE) determination letter dated September 23, 1999. Specifically, FDA is updating this SE Letter because FDA has created a new product code to better categorize your device technology.

Please note that the 510(k) submission was not re-reviewed. For questions regarding this letter please contact Cindy Chowdhury, OHT4: Office of Surgical and Infection Control Devices, 240-402-6647, Cindy.Chowdhury@fda.hhs.gov.

Sincerely,

Dear Mr. Sargent:

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 your 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 (QS) 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.
