Intended Use

The Artemis Lap Cannula has applications in abdominal, thoracic, and gynecologic minimally invasive surgical procedures to establish a path of entry for minimally invasive instruments. Artemis Lap Cannula may be used for primary and secondary insertions.

Device Story

Artemis Lap Cannula is a reusable, radiolucent, bladeless laparoscopic trocar system. It consists of a cannula, obturator, depth limiter, and disposable standalone seal pack. Used in abdominal, thoracic, and gynecologic surgeries to establish instrument entry paths. The depth limiter prevents over-penetration. Operated by surgeons in clinical settings. The device facilitates minimally invasive access; the seal pack minimizes gas leakage during instrument insertion/withdrawal. The system is available in 5mm and 12mm diameters with various lengths.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data. Bench testing only, including biocompatibility evaluation, reprocessing validation, ISO 80369-7 compliance testing, and leak testing demonstrating performance equivalent to the predicate.

Technological Characteristics

Reusable, radiolucent, bladeless trocar. Materials: Radel (sleeve/obturator), Polycarbonate/Polyisoprene (seals). Dimensions: 5mm and 12mm diameters; 75mm, 100mm, 150mm lengths. Features: Depth limiter, multi-piece (Pacman) outer seal, duckbill inner seal. Sterilization: Cobalt irradiation. Connectivity: None.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients undergoing abdominal, thoracic, or gynecologic minimally invasive surgical procedures requiring a path of entry for instruments. Suitable for primary and secondary insertions.

It was found biocompatible for intended use. {7}------------------------------------------------ Reprocessing evaluation was conducted on the proposed device. Validated reprocessing instructions are sufficient to clean and sterilize it in healthcare settings. Nonclinical testing in accordance with ISO 80639-7 was completed. The test data demonstrates success and met the criteria of ISO 80369-7. Leak testing was conducted on the proposed devices and submitted in this Traditional 510(k). The leak test data demonstrates the proposed devices preform statically equivalent to the predicate device. #### Conclusion Subject and predicate devices have same intended use. Differences in design between the subject and predicate device do not raise new questions of safety or effectiveness. Based on comparison of the technological characteristics, and performance test data, the subject devices is substantially equivalent to the predicate device for requested intended use.
