The Intuitive Surgical® Endoscopic Instrument Control System is intended to assist in the accurate control of Intuitive Surgical® Endoscopic Instruments including rigid endoscopes, blunt and sharp endoscopic dissectors, scissors, scalpels, ultrasonic shears, forceps/pickups, needle holders, endoscopic retractors, stabilizers, electrocautery and accessories for endoscopic manipulation of tissue, including grasping, cutting, blunt and sharp dissection, approximation, ligation, electrocautery, suturing and delivery and placement of microwave ablation probes and accessories during urologic surgical procedures, general laparoscopic surgical procedures, general non-cardiovascular thoracoscopic surgical procedures, and thoracoscopically assisted cardiotomy procedures. The system can also be employed, with adjunctive mediastinotomy to perform coronary anastomosis during cardiac revascularization. It is intended for use by trained physicians in an operating room environment in accordance with the representative specific procedures set forth in the Professional Instructions for Use.

This 510(k) is being submitted for a labeling change / clarification on the da Vinci ® Surgical System. There are no changes in the design, technology, materials, manufacturing, performance, specifications, and method of use for the da Vinci Surgical System. The only change is an updated indication statement to clarify use in broad urologic surgical procedures.

The da Vinci ® Surgical System consists of two integrated sub-systems as follows:

Intuitive Surgical® Endoscopic Instrument Control System: This sub-Device system is comprised of the Surgeon Console and Patient Side Cart. While seated at the Surgeon Console, the surgeon controls critical aspects of the operative field. Endoscopic instrument and camera movements, within the patient, are controlled by the surgeon through use of the Master Tool Manipulators (MTM), two hand operated mechanisms residing within the Surgeon Console. The endoscopic instruments are held in a fixed position (with respect to the patient) by either two (or optionally three) unique arms known as Patient Side Manipulators (PSM), which are located on the Patient Side Cart (PSC). The endoscope is also held in a fixed position (with respect to the patient) by another arm, similar to the PSM, known as the Endoscope Camera Manipulator (ECM) and also located on the PSC. Commands from the Surgeon Console are relayed to the PSC, which is located immediately adjacent to the patient, via cables. Instrument and endoscope changes are performed by another provider positioned adjacent to the PSC.

Intuitive Surgical® Stereo View Endoscopic System: The endoscopic vision system used with the da Vinci® Surgical System, also known as Intuitive Surgical® Insite™ Vision System, consists of a stereo endoscope, endoscopic camera, and various accessories, including a light source and light guides. The Insite™ Vision System provides two independent images that are relayed to the viewer located in the Surgeon Console, where they are fused to form a 3-D (or alternatively a 2-D image) image of the surgical field.

The provided text is a 510(k) summary for a labeling change to the Intuitive Surgical® da Vinci® Surgical System and Endoscopic Instruments. It explicitly states: "There are no changes in the design, technology, materials, manufacturing, performance, specifications, and method of use for the da Vinci Surgical System." The only change is an updated indication statement.

Therefore, the document does not contain information about acceptance criteria or a study proving the device meets acceptance criteria. The submission is based on the substantial equivalence principle, where the updated device is compared to previously cleared predicate devices, arguing that the change (labeling/indication clarification) does not alter its safety or effectiveness.

Due to the nature of this 510(k) submission, the following information cannot be extracted from the provided text:

1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance: Not applicable, as no new performance data or acceptance criteria are presented for a modified or new device.
2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance: No test set was used for a performance study.
3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts: Not applicable, as no test set requiring ground truth was used.
4. Adjudication method for the test set: Not applicable.
5. If a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done: Not applicable.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only, without human-in-the-loop performance) was done: Not applicable, as this is a surgical system, not an AI algorithm.
7. The type of ground truth used: Not applicable.
8. The sample size for the training set: Not applicable.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established: Not applicable.
