Indications for Use
The VasoView® 6 System is indicated for use in minimally invasive surgery allowing access for vessel harvesting, and is primarily indicated for patients undergoing endoscopic surgery for arterial bypass. It is indicated for cutting tissue and controlling bleeding through coagulation, and for patients requiring blunt dissection of tissue including dissection of blood vessels, dissection of blood vessels of the extremities, dissection of ducts and other structures in the extraperitoneal or subcutaneous extremity and thoracic space. Extremity procedures include tissue dissection/vessel harvesting along the saphenous vein for use in coronary artery bypass grafting and peripheral artery bypass or radial artery for use in coronary artery bypass grafting. Thoracoscopic procedures include exposure and dissection of structures external to the parietal pleura, including nerves, blood vessels and other tissues of the chest wall.
Device Story
VasoView 6 Harvesting Cannula is a surgical instrument used in minimally invasive endoscopic procedures. It houses a 7 mm endoscope, C-Ring wire, endoscope washer, and Bipolar Bisector. The device is operated by a surgeon in an OR setting. The surgeon uses the C-Ring slider for vessel retraction and tip cleaning, and the Bisector carriage for extending, rotating, and retracting the bipolar electrode. Electrosurgical energy provides coagulation for hemostasis, while a mechanical toggle on the carriage enables tissue cutting. Visualization is provided by the endoscope. The device facilitates vessel harvesting and tissue dissection, reducing the need for open surgical access and potentially improving patient recovery outcomes.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Verification testing demonstrated that the device meets established acceptance criteria and performs in a manner equivalent to the predicate devices.
Technological Characteristics
The device is a multi-lumen cannula housing a 7 mm endoscope, C-Ring wire, washer tube, and Bipolar Bisector. It utilizes bipolar electrosurgical energy for coagulation and mechanical cutting via a toggle mechanism. The device is designed for endoscopic visualization and minimally invasive access.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients undergoing minimally invasive endoscopic surgery for arterial bypass, including coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and peripheral artery bypass. Used for blunt dissection of blood vessels, ducts, and tissues in extraperitoneal, subcutaneous, extremity, and thoracic spaces (e.g., saphenous vein, radial artery, chest wall structures).
Regulatory Classification
Identification
An electrosurgical cutting and coagulation device and accessories is a device intended to remove tissue and control bleeding by use of high-frequency electrical current.

| Device<br>description | The Guidant VasoView® 6 Harvesting Cannula is designed for use in<br>conjunction with the 7 mm Endoscope. The Harvesting Cannula has four<br>lumens which house the Endoscope, C-Ring wire, endoscope washer tube and<br>Bipolar Bisector for ligation and division of vessel branches. The<br>C-Ring/endoscope washer is independently controlled by a C-Ring Slider on<br>the handle of the device for retraction of the vessel as well as washing of the<br>distal tip of the Endoscope. The Bipolar Bisector can be<br>extended/retracted/rotated with the Bisector Carriage, and mechanical cutting<br>is achieved with the toggle located on the Bisector Carriage. Bipolar<br>coagulation is achieved using electrosurgical energy. Positioning of the<br>device, coagulation, and mechanical cutting are performed under endoscopic<br>visualization. This device is intended for use with the bipolar outputs of<br>compatible generators. |
