Device delivers stapling and cutting action to create anastomoses. Powered mechanically by rotational energy; clamp shaft drives clamp screw to close anvil and compress tissue. Modification from predicate involves distal translation of jaw pivot point to enable reverse opening. Device features rigid shaft; electronics, power configuration, and internal gearing/transmission identical to predicate. Used in OR setting. ## Clinical Evidence No clinical data provided; substantial equivalence based on technological comparison and design modification analysis. ## Technological Characteristics Rigid shaft endoscopic linear cutter; powered by rotational energy. Features include clamp shaft, clamp screw, and anvil mechanism for tissue compression. Modification: distally translated jaw pivot point for reverse opening. Electronics, power configuration, and internal gearing/transmission identical to predicate. ## Regulatory Identification An implantable staple is a staple-like device intended to connect internal tissues to aid healing. It is not absorbable. ## Predicate Devices - Intelligent Articulating Endoscopic Linear Cutters with Reloads ([K071708](/device/K071708.md)) ## Submission Summary (Full Text) > This content was OCRed from public FDA records by [Innolitics](https://innolitics.com).

Whitman Date of Notification: November 26, 2008 Name of Device: 2) Trade Name: Intelligent Articulating Endoscopic Linear Cutters Reverse with Reloads Linear Staplers with Implantable Staples Common Name: - Staple, Implantable, GDW Classification Name: 3) Predicate Device: Intelligent Articulating Endoscopic Linear Cutters with Reloads, Power Medical Interventions, Inc., Langhorne, PA. REF i45, i455, i60, i6oS (Ko71708). Device Description: {1}------------------------------------------------ #### Device Modification 5) The Intelligent Articulating Endoscopic Linear Cutter Reverse with Reloads has identical technological features as the predicate device, i45/160 (K071708). The modification made to the device was that the pivot point for the jaws was translated distally, which enables the device to open in Reverse. Both the subject device and the predicate device deliver stapling/cutting action to create anastomoses. 0012 2 - Indications For Use 6) The Intelligent Articulating Endoscopic Linear Cutters Reverse with Reloads have applications for general and endoscopic surgery in gastrointestinal, gynecological, general abdominal and thoracic surgical procedures for resection, transection, and creation of anastomoses. - Comparison to Predicate Devices The Intelligent Articulating Endoscopic Linear Cutters Reverse functions the same as the predicate device, i45/160 (K071708). The electronics, power configuration, and internal gearing & transmission are common to both the Intelligent Articulating Endoscopic Linear Cutters Reverse and 160/145. The difference is that the pivot point for the stapling jaws was translated distally in order to enable the device to open in reverse. The shafts on both the subject device, Intelligent Articulating Endoscopic Linear Cutters Reverse, and the predicate device, i45/i6o, are both rigid. Both devices are powered mechanically by rotational energy. In both the predicate and the subject device, a clamp shaft drives a clamp screw, which causes the anvil to close and compress tissue. The same is true for firing: {2}------------------------------------------------ ## DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES Image /page/2/Picture/1 description: The image shows the logo for the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.
