Intended Use

The Broncus Coagulation Electrode System is intended for coagulation or hemostasis in the tracheobronchial tree.

Device Story

Broncus Coagulation Electrode System is an electrosurgical device used for coagulation or hemostasis within the tracheobronchial tree. The system comprises a catheter, an RF generator, and a patient return electrode. The catheter delivers monopolar RF energy to a target site while relaying temperature and feedback data to the RF generator. The patient return electrode completes the electrical circuit. The device is operated by a clinician in a clinical setting. By applying controlled RF energy, the device enables targeted tissue coagulation, assisting in hemostasis during bronchoscopic procedures.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. The device underwent and passed functional and electrical performance testing. Biocompatibility of materials was confirmed.

Technological Characteristics

Monopolar RF electrosurgical system consisting of a catheter, RF generator, and patient return electrode. Features temperature and feedback monitoring from the catheter to the generator. Materials are biocompatible.

Indications for Use

Indicated for coagulation or hemostasis in the tracheobronchial tree.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A bronchoscope (flexible or rigid) and accessories is a tubular endoscopic device with any of a group of accessory devices which attach to the bronchoscope and is intended to examine or treat the larynx and tracheobronchial tree. It is typically used with a fiberoptic light source and carrier to provide illumination. The device is made of materials such as stainless steel or flexible plastic. This generic type of device includes the rigid ventilating bronchoscope, rigid nonventilating bronchoscope, nonrigid bronchoscope, laryngeal-bronchial telescope, flexible foreign body claw, bronchoscope tubing, flexible biopsy forceps, rigid biopsy curette, flexible biopsy brush, rigid biopsy forceps, flexible biopsy curette, and rigid bronchoscope aspirating tube, but excludes the fiberoptic light source and carrier.

You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the Current Good Manufacturing Practice requirements, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic QS inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations. {3}------------------------------------------------ Page 2 -- Mr. John D'Angelo · This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market. If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801 and additionally 809.10 for in vitro diagnostic devices), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4613.
