The Endoscopic Instrument Control System is intended to assist in the accurate control of Intuitive Surgical Endoscopic Instruments including rigid endoscopes, blunt and sharp endoscopic dissectors, scissors, scalpels, ultrasonic shears, forceps/pick-ups, needle holders, endoscopic retractors, stabilizers, electrocautery and accessories for endoscopic manipulation of tissue, including grasping, cutting, blunt and sharp dissection, approximation, ligation, electrocautery, suturing, and delivery and placement of microwave and cryogenic ablation probes and accessories, during urologic surgical procedures, general laparoscopic surgical procedures, gynecologic laparoscopic surgical procedures, transoral otolaryngology surgical procedures restricted to benign and malignant tumors classified as T1 and T2, and for benign base of tongue resection procedures, general thoracoscopic surgical procedures, and thoracoscopically assisted cardiotomy procedures. The system can also be employed with adjunctive mediastinotomy to perform coronary anastomosis during cardiac revascularization. The system is indicated for adult and pediatric use (except for transoral otolaryngology surgical procedures). It is intended to be used by trained physicians in an operating room environment in accordance with the representative, specific procedures set forth in the Professional Instructions for Use.

Device Story

An assessment of hazards that could potentially be introduced by the life extension of the Cobra Graspers was performed, along with a risk analysis of the remanufacturing process. Actions taken to address identified risks included life testing to verify device performance and durability through additional uses, electrical safety evaluation (per IEC 60601-1), biocompatibility testing (per ISO 10993-1), reprocessing validation (per OEM instructions), and cybersecurity assessment (per FDA Guidance on Cybersecurity in Medical Devices). The remanufactured EndoWrist ProGrasp Forceps (model: 420093, K241872) was used as a reference for the testing methods. Based on the detailed comparison of Indications for Use, Technological Characteristics, and Performance Characteristics, it can be concluded that the proposed Remanufactured Cobra Grasper is demonstrated to be substantially equivalent to the predicate devices, with no different questions of safety or efficacy having been raised. | |
