Intended Use

The Insufflation Retention Device (IRD) is an accessory to an endoscope. The IRD is a single balloon accessory intended for use with any standard endoscope that has a distal tip outer diameter of 9.2-13.2 mm. The device is indicated to assist with optical visualization in the large intestine during endoscopic procedures.

Device Description

The IRD is a non-sterile accessory for a colonoscope which provides an adjustable seal between a colonoscope and a patient's anus. This seal retains introduced insufflation air introduced during a colonoscopy. The retained insufflation air provides increased visibility and facilitates the advancement of the colonoscope. The IRD contains a split section which allows it to be placed over the continuous shaft of the colonoscope. The adjustable seal is inflated and deflated manually with a non-sterile syringe.

Substantial Equivalence:

The Insufflation Retention Device is substantially equivalent to the predicate: LUMENDI. LLC DiLumen Endolumenal Interventional Platform. The subject device and the predicate device have similar indications for use and intended use. Both devices are accessories for colonoscopes which utilize manual, clinician inflation of elastomeric (polyurethane) balloons to stabilize the device in the large intestines. Both devices are used to assist the visibility for clinicians using the endoscope. Both devices accomplish this improved visibility without compromising the use of the endoscope. Both devices are single-use and non-sterile.

Comparison of the three primary technological differences between the subject IRD and the predicate DiLumen devices do not introduce new questions about the safety or efficacy of the subject device. First, while the DiLumen device utilizes two independently inflatable balloons to stabilize the endoscope compared to the single balloon used in the subject IRD device, the balloons serve similar function, and require similar evaluation to verify function. Second, the IRD does not require a balloon extension/retraction mechanism included in the DiLumen device. The omission of these features does not introduce new or different risks. Finally, the subject IRD and the predicate DiLumen devices utilized different materials for their construction, but the subject device was appropriately evaluated for biological safety consistent with its patient contact and duration of use.

Discussion of Non-clinical Tests:

The following non-clinical tests were conducted to demonstrate substantial equivalence to the predicate device.

Biocompatibility:

The IRD, like the predicate device, was evaluated for biocompatibility appropriate to the contact characterization (type and duration), in accordance with the requirements of ISO 10993-1 Biological evaluation of medical devices - Part 1: Evaluation and testing within a risk management process, and the FDA Guidance for Industry - Use of International Standard ISO 10993-1, "Biological evaluation of medical devices - Part 1: Evaluation and testing within a risk management process".
