## Indications for Use

The intended use of the Laparoscopic Insufflator ALPHA DUO LAP is to establish and maintain a pneumoperitoneum with CO2 gas for diagnostic or operative Laparoscopy.

## Device Story

The ALPHA DUO LAP is a microprocessor-controlled laparoscopic insufflator used in clinical settings to establish and maintain pneumoperitoneum during diagnostic or therapeutic laparoscopic procedures. The device delivers medical CO2 gas into the peritoneal cavity at user-adjustable pressures (3-30 mmHg) and flow rates (16-45 lpm, model-dependent). It features integrated acoustic and visual alarms for overpressure and low gas supply conditions. Operated by healthcare professionals, the device provides automated gas delivery to facilitate surgical access. By maintaining a stable pneumoperitoneum, it enables visualization and instrumentation for the surgeon, potentially improving procedural efficiency and patient outcomes during minimally invasive surgery.

## Clinical Evidence

No clinical data. Substantial equivalence is supported by bench testing and performance evaluations in conformance with harmonized device standards, alongside a review of professional literature regarding the safety and effectiveness of CO2 insufflators.

## Technological Characteristics

Microprocessor-controlled CO2 insufflator. Flow rates: 16-45 lpm. Pressure range: 3-30 mmHg. Features acoustic and visual alarms for overpressure and low gas supply. Materials and design conform to international and FDA-recognized standards.

## Regulatory Identification

A laparoscopic insufflator is a device used to facilitate the use of the laparoscope by filling the peritoneal cavity with gas to distend it.

Intended Use

The intended use of the Laparoscopic Insufflator ALPHA DUO LAP is to establish and maintain a pneumoperitoneum with CO2 gas for diagnostic or operative Laparoscopy.

## Device Description

The Laparoscopic Insufflator ALPHA DUO LAP with the following model variants S.2916.00 II, S.2920.00 II, S.2925.00 II, S.2930.00 II, S.2945.00 II" is a microprocessor controlled device, designed to ínsufflate medical CO2 gas into peritoneal cavities during diagnostic and/or therapeutic laparoscopic procedures. The maximum flow delivery capability depends on the indexed ( performance ) type and ranges from 16 lpm to 45 lpm. The insufflation pressure is user adjustable between 3 and 30 mmHg. The safety features include acoustic and visual alarms for overpressure and low gas supply.

## Summary of Testing

All materials used in the composition of the laparoscopic insufflator and accessories were subject to performance and physical tests to evaluate safety, effectiveness and reliability of the devices. All results were in conformance with the cited harmonized device standards. From this it follows, that this device is substantial equivalent to other SE-devices.

## Information Bearing on the Safety and Effectiveness

Laparoscopic Insufflators of type ALPHA DUO LAP and accessories have the same intended use as predicate devices used in laparoscopy. They are made of the same material and produced to the same international and FDA-recognized standards. Modifications in design and dimensions do not adversely affect the safety and effectiveness of these devices.

In summary, the

- > intended use
- performance attributes Д
- > materials and
- > basic design

are identical/substantially equivalent to SE devices. Then it is judged that clinical data is not needed. A review of professional literature demonstrates the safety and effectiveness of CO2 insufflators.

The results of design validation raise no new issues of safety and effectiveness.
