The device has not been shown to be effective for tubal coagulation for sterilization procedures, and should not be used for these procedures.
Device Story
Bipolar electrosurgical instrument; uses RF energy from Voyant Electrosurgical Generator; seals and divides vessels up to 7mm and tissue bundles. Used in open surgery by physicians. Features pistol-grip handle, trigger for jaw closure, energy activation button, and manual blade for tissue division. Device software manages energy delivery. Benefits include efficient hemostasis and tissue division. Bench and preclinical testing confirm performance equivalent to predicate.
Clinical Evidence
No human clinical data. Evidence includes bench testing (burst pressure, durability) and preclinical testing (thermal spread, chronic survival study). Chronic study evaluated long-term seal quality, hemostasis, and adjacent structure safety in animal models. All testing met predetermined acceptance criteria.

## Summary of Technological Characteristics between Subject and Predicate Devices:
The subject device design is the same as the predicate, with the exception of the change in software of the device. The subject device has a similar design as the predicate. The fundamental technological features, and intended use of the subject device are the same as the predicate.
The subject and predicate instruments are designed to deliver RF energy to vessels and tissue captured between the jaws of the device for tissue fusion. Both instruments feature pistol-grip style handles with a trigger for jaw closure and a button on the back of the handle for energy activation. The instruments are equipped with a mechanical, user-actuated blade for the division of sealed tissue.
## Discussion of Performance Testing:
The 2016 FDA Guidance, Premarket Notification (510(k)) Submissions for Bipolar Electrosurgical Vessel Sealers for General Surgery, was considered in evaluating the subject device's electrical, mechanical and functional capabilities. The tests addressed below were utilized to demonstrate safety and efficacy of the subject device and substantial equivalence to the predicate device.
## EMC, Electrical Safety, and Mechanical Testing
The Voyant Open Fusion Device complies with IEC 60601-1;ed.3.1;2012 and IEC 60601-2-2;ed.6;2017 for electrical safety testing and IEC 60601-1-2;ed.3;2007 for electromagnetic compatibility testing.
## Bench
Burst pressure testing was conducted on the subject and predicate Voyant Open Fusion Devices. Vessels representative of the devices' indications were sealed and the burst pressure for each vessel was recorded. The results of the study demonstrated that the subject device met the predetermined acceptance criteria.
Durability testing was performed to verify the continued performance of the subject device over multiple device activations. The result of the study demonstrated that the subject device met the predetermined acceptance criteria.
## Preclinical
Thermal spread testing was performed to evaluate the thermal spread damage produced by the subject and predicate Voyant Open Fusion Devices. Vessels representative of the devices' indications were sealed and measurements of the fused areas were taken. Analysis of the measurements demonstrated that the subject device met the predetermined acceptance criteria.
A chronic survival study was performed to evaluate long-term seal quality but also to evaluate device performance and the potential for an adverse effect on adjacent structures. Vessels representative of the devices' indications were sealed and evaluated for hemostasis and signs of hematoma. The result of the study demonstrated that the subject device met the predetermined acceptance criteria.
## Software Verification
Unit, integration, and system level verification were conducted to evaluate the implementation and performance of the device software script.
{5}------------------------------------------------
## Conclusion:
The subject Voyant Open Fusion Device is substantially equivalent in performance to the predicate Voyant Open Fusion Device with respect to intended use (i.e. vessel sealing performance and local tissue effects) and does not raise any new issues of safety and efficacy.
