Intended Use
The J-Scope System is an endoscopic device intended to be used by physicians for introduction of fluids to assist in visualization of intra-articular structures for arthroscopic diagnosis, as well as for surgical procedures using a second J-Scope or other arthroscopic device. It is indicated for use in the shoulder, hip, wrist, ankle, knee, and elbow joints.
Device Story
J-Scope System comprises single-use, 14-gauge needle mini-cannula kit and semi-rigid/flexible arthroscope; used for intra-articular fluid introduction and visualization. Physician-operated in clinical settings; micro-invasive design allows procedures under local anesthesia. Stainless steel trocars/obturators; polycarbonate/polyethylene cannula body/handles. Provides direct visualization of joint structures to assist diagnosis or surgical intervention. Benefits include reduced invasiveness compared to traditional arthroscopy.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Conformance to ISO 10993 (biocompatibility), IEC 60601-2-18 (safety of endoscopic equipment), and ISO 11135-1:2007 (ethylene oxide sterilization). System component validation and expiration dating tests performed.
Technological Characteristics
14-gauge needle mini-cannula; stainless steel trocars/obturators; polycarbonate/polyethylene cannula body/handles. Single-use, disposable. Sterilized via ethylene oxide (ISO 11135-1:2007). Complies with IEC 60601-2-18 and EN 60601-2-18.
Indications for Use
Indicated for use in shoulder, hip, wrist, ankle, knee, and elbow joints for fluid introduction and visualization of intra-articular structures during arthroscopic diagnosis or surgical procedures.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
An arthroscope is an electrically powered endoscope intended to make visible the interior of a joint. The arthroscope and accessories also is intended to perform surgery within a joint.

| Predicate Device: | Henke Sass Wolf Arthroscope, K080560 |
| Device Identification: | Trade Name: J-Scope Tissue Visualization & Assessment Mini-<br>Cannula Kit and J-Scope Tissue Visualization & Assessment<br>Arthroscope |
| Common Name: | The J-Scope System |
| Classification Name: | Orthopedic—Arthroscope: 21 CFR 888.1100<br>Class II |
| Product Code: | HRX |
| Device Description: | The J-Scope Tissue Visualization & Assessment Mini-Cannula Kit is a<br>single-use, disposable small diameter, 14-gauge needle mini-cannula<br>device which, when coupled with the J-Scope semi-rigid or flexible<br>Arthroscope, provides convenient and precise arthroscopic<br>visualization of both major and minor joints. The micro-invasive<br>design of the system allows the procedure to be performed<br>comfortably with the patient under local anesthesia. |
| Intended Use: | The J-Scope System is an endoscopic device intended to be used by<br>physicians for introduction of fluids to assist in visualization of intra-<br>articular structures for arthroscopic diagnosis, as well as for surgical<br>procedures using a second J-Scope or other arthroscopic device. It is<br>indicated for use in the shoulder, hip, wrist, ankle, knee, and elbow joints. |
| Substantial Equivalence: | The J-Scope System is substantially equivalent to the predicate device<br>as the basic features, functionality, and intended uses are similar. The<br>minor differences raise no new issues of safety and effectiveness and |

have no effect on the performance, function, or intended use of the device.
The J-Scope System is very similar to the Henke Sass Wolf Technological Arthroscope in design and function. Both the subject and HSW Characteristics: predicate devices make use of the same, or similar, technology. The trocar sheaths, obturators, and trocars are made of stainless steel, and access ports are provided on the trocars for flushing with saline. The J-Scope differs from the HSW Arthroscope in that the cannula body and handles are made of various plastics such as polycarbonate and polyethylene while the HSW cannula is made of stainless steel and is autoclavable. The arthroscopes are very similar in design and materials.
The J-Scope was tested for conformance with the following Testing: performance standards: ISO 10993: Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices, IEC 60601-2-18 - Medical Electrical Equipment -Particular requirements for the safety of endoscopic equipment, ISO 11135-1:2007. Sterilization of Health Care Products-Ethylene Oxide, reference 7.1, Product Adoption and Process Equivalency for Ethylene Oxide Sterilization, and EN60601-2-18, Medical Electrical Equipment - Particular requirements for the safety of endoscopic equipment. In addition. Expiration Dating tests were performed, as was system component validation testing.
Conclusion: The technological differences between the HSW Arthroscope and the J-Scope System do not raise any new questions of safety or effectiveness and testing demonstrates that the J-Scope is as safe and effective as the predicate devices. Therefore the J-Scope System is substantially equivalent to the previously cleared Henke Sass Wolf Arthroscope (K080560).
