Intended Use

The VasoView 6 Harvesting Cannula is intended for cutting and coagulation of tissue and providing access in minimally invasive vessel harvesting procedures for patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting.

Device Story

VasoView 6 Harvesting Cannula is a disposable endoscopic instrument for vessel harvesting. Device features a tubular cannula for endoscope insertion (illumination/visualization) and a handle with controls for extension, retraction, and actuation of a transector cutting and coagulation tool. Used in minimally invasive surgery by surgeons to isolate and divide vessels and branches. Modifications from predicate include updated blade and electrode configuration, addition of bipolar tool rotation, and integrated insufflation capability. Device facilitates tissue dissection and hemostasis during procedures like saphenous vein harvesting for bypass grafting.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided; bench testing only.

Technological Characteristics

Disposable endoscopic cannula with integrated electrosurgical cutting and coagulation tool. Features include bipolar tool rotation, insufflation capability, and lumen for endoscope. Materials and manufacturing processes are consistent with predicate device.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients undergoing endoscopic surgery for vessel harvesting, including general and cardiothoracic surgery such as minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass (MIDCAB), lower extremity procedures (saphenous vein harvesting for coronary or peripheral artery bypass), and thoracoscopic procedures (exposure and dissection of chest wall structures including nerves and blood vessels).

Regulatory Classification

Identification

#### D. Device Name

Trade Name: VasoView®6 Harvesting Cannula Classification Name: Electrosurgical cutting and coagulation device and accessories

#### E. Device Description

The VasoView 6 Harvesting Cannula is a disposable device designed to perform endoscopic cutting and coagulation, including vessel isolation and division of vessel branches. The device has a tubular cannula for introduction of instrumentation into the surgical site with a proximal handle to hold and control the device during procedures. A lumen of the cannula allows insertion of an endoscope for illumination and visualization of the procedure. Extension, retraction and actuation of the transector cutting and coagulation tool is achieved with controls located on the handle.

#### F. Intended Use

The VasoView 6 Harvesting Cannula is intended for cutting and coagulation of tissue and providing access in minimally invasive vessel harvesting procedures for patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting.

#### Substantial Equivalence G.

The VasoView 6 Harvesting Cannula is substantially equivalent to the VasoView 5 Harvesting Cannula, cleared by the Food and Drug Administration under K020143 on February 20, 2002. The design of the VasoView 6 Harvesting Cannula is identical to the current device with the exception of the modification of the blades and electrode configuration, addition of bipolar tool rotation, and insufflation capability through the cannula. The VasoView 6 Harvesting Cannula is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices in intended use, technological characteristics, materials, manufacturing processes, and components.
