Device Story

SuperFlow Irrigation and Aspiration Tubing Sets are medical conduits used in general and gastrointestinal surgery. Irrigation sets connect to gravity bag or pressurized bottle systems to deliver fluids to the surgical site for visibility; aspiration sets connect to suction sources and suction tip handles to remove fluids, air, and debris. Operated by surgical staff, these devices facilitate site clearance during procedures. The tubing is provided in various sizes with spikes, luer locks, or barbed connectors for system integration. The device benefits patients by maintaining a clear surgical field, aiding the surgeon's visualization. No electronic processing or clinical decision-making software is involved.

Common Name: Gastrointestinal tube and accessories

### . Device Class

The devices listed in this classification referenced in the Code of Federal Regulations (21 CFR 876.59800) are Class II classification number 78KDH.

## . New or Modification

The devices listed in this 510(k) summary are modifications of the existing device called the EndoSI Suction/Irrigator previously approved with the 510(K) #K923201.

The safety and effectiveness of this device is substantially equivalent to that of the predicate device (The EndoSI Suction Irrigators ) because the components are identical to those that have been used in the EndoSI Suction Irrigations. The biocompatibility of the device has been tested as part of the Suction Irrigators and has passed. This device is similar in design, composition and function to the EndoSI Suction Irrigator. The modification done is by removing the suction/irrigation trumpet valve unit from the corresponding tubing sets and selling the tubing sets for aspiration and irrigation by themselves for indications in general and gastrointestinal surgery not just laparoscopic surgeries. The tubing is offered in different sizes. There are no different technological characteristics of this device compared to the suction/irrigator.

The irrigation tubing sets are conduits for irrigant. One end is hooked up to the irrigant source and the other is hooked to a handle or accessory for flushing and washing.

The aspiration tubing sets are conduits for suction. One end is hooked up to the suction source while the other is hooked to a handle oraccessory for the removal of fluids, air and debris.
