Dear Blake Stacy:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part

#### Page 2 of 4
Indications for The Voyant [5mm/Maryland] Fusion device is a bipolar. electrosurgical device indicated for use with the Voyant electrosurgical generator in open Use: and laparoscopic procedures where the ligation and division of vessels and tissue bundles is desired. The device can seal and divide vessels up to and including 7mm in diameter and tissue bundles that can be captured in the jaws of the device. The device has not been shown to be effective for tubal sterilization or tubal coagulation for sterilization procedures, and should not be used for these procedures.
#### Discussion of Technological Characteristics between Subject and Predicate Devices:
The subject and predicate devices are identical in both material and technological characteristics. All the devices in question are single-use, electrosurgical hand piece designed to deliver RF energy to vessels and tissue captured between its jaws for tissue fusion. Each device features a pistol-grip style handle with a trigger for jaw closure and a button energy activation. The devices are equipped with a mechanical, user-actuated blade for the division of sealed tissue.
#### Discussion of Indications for Use:
The differences in indications between the subject and predicate devices do not impact how the devices seal and divide vessels and tissue bundles. When the devices are used as labelled, the safety and effectiveness is not affected. Choosing to perform a surgery open or laparoscopically is up to the discretion of the end-user, but the decision is not related to the performance of the device. The difference in indications does not affect the patient population or the types of procedures being performed.
#### Discussion of Performance Testing:
The FDA guidance documents Premarket Notification (510(k)) Submissions for Electrosurgical Devices for General Surgery (2016), Premarket Notification (510(k)) Submissions for Bipolar Electrosurgical Vessel Sealers for General Surgery (2016), and Guidance for the Content of Premarket Submissions for Software Contained in Medical Devices (2005) were considered in evaluating the subject devices' electrical, software, and functional capabilities. As the proposed labeling change resulted in no design changes, the tests and data utilized to demonstrate safety and efficacy of the predicate devices are suitable for use in the assessment of the subject devices. As there have been no changes to the design of the subject devices from the predicate devices, this submission leverages performance, sterility, shelf life, and electrical testing provided in previous submissions.
