Overview
AI-generated summary, 18 Sep 2026
This device is a Disposable Powered Endoscopic Linear Cutting Stapler and associated cartridges, classified under FDA product code GDW (General and Plastic Surgery). It is designed for endoscopic surgical procedures to excise or anastomose tissue by cutting and stapling in a single action, reducing the need for manual suturing. The system combines a reusable endoscopic stapler handle with single-use, disposable cartridge assemblies containing staples and a cutting edge.
The device is intended for single-use only and must be discarded after one procedure to maintain sterility. Supplied sterile in a sealed package, it is regulated under FDA 510(k) clearance (K202709) and the EU MDR. Cartridges are available in multiple sizes and configurations, as referenced by the listed FEI numbers, to accommodate varying tissue thicknesses and anatomical requirements. No MRI safety information is specified, and proper handling, storage, and disposal per manufacturer instructions are required.

Questions
AI-generated answers, 18 Sep 2026
What types of surgical procedures is this device designed for, and how does it reduce manual effort during surgery?
This device is designed for endoscopic surgical procedures, specifically to excise tissue (remove it) or anastomose tissue (connect two ends of a structure like the intestine). It achieves this by cutting and stapling in a single action, eliminating the need for manual suturing. This streamlines the procedure by automating the stapling process, reducing surgical time and potential human error.
Are the cartridges reusable, or do they need to be discarded after a single use? Why?
The cartridges are intended for single-use only and must be discarded after one procedure to maintain sterility. Since they contain staples and a cutting edge, reusing them could compromise patient safety by introducing contamination or mechanical failure risks.
How do I know which cartridge size to use for a specific patient or anatomical requirement?
The cartridges come in multiple sizes, each referenced by unique FEI numbers (e.g., 3011052945, 3003495548). These sizes accommodate varying tissue thicknesses and anatomical needs. The manufacturer’s instructions should guide selection based on the specific surgical context, ensuring proper fit and functionality.
How should the device be stored to ensure it remains sterile and functional?
The device is supplied sterile in a sealed package, so it must be stored in its original packaging until ready for use. Storage should follow manufacturer guidelines to preserve sterility and prevent damage, including protection from moisture, extreme temperatures, and physical stress.
What regulatory pathways has this device undergone, and how does that affect its use?
This device has received FDA 510(k) clearance (K202709) and EU MDR compliance, confirming it meets regulatory standards for safety and effectiveness. These clearances ensure the device adheres to stringent manufacturing, performance, and labeling requirements, but they do not dictate clinical indications—only the manufacturer’s intended use (endoscopic cutting/stapling) applies.
