Regulatory Classification
Identification
A unipolar endoscopic coagulator-cutter is a device designed to destroy tissue with high temperatures by directing a high frequency electrical current through the tissue between an energized probe and a grounding plate. It is used in female sterilization and in other operative procedures under endoscopic observation. This generic type of device may include the following accessories: an electrical generator, probes and electrical cables, and a patient grounding plate. This generic type of device does not include devices used to perform female sterilization under hysteroscopic observation.

## Intended Use
The LiNA Loop is a 5mm monopolar electrosurgical device intended for cutting and removal of soft tissue in gynecological procedures involving endoscopic hysterectorny. It is used with standard electrosurgical generators.
## Description of Device
The LiNA Loop is a 5 mm laparoscopic instrument. It is available with two different loop dimensions; 160mm x 80mm and 200mm x 100mm. The outer 15mm on each side of the loop are not insulated i.e. the monopolar cutting area length is totally 30mm. The device is sterile for single use and is compatible with all standard electrosurgical generators that have a monopolar outlet.
## Substantial Equivalence
The LiNA Loop is substantial equivalent to the Omnitech Resectoscope Cutting Loop Electrode (K981464) and the Cook Ireland Sonnet Polypectomy Snare (K050294) with respect to technical and design features. The submitted devices pose the same type of questions about safety or effectiveness as the existing devices.
## Test Data
Test data include electrical testing which deems the LiNA Loop to be safe under those conditions. No clinical tests have been performed.
