Intended Use
The intended use for these Semi-Rigid ureteroscopes is for examination/operation of the urinary tract and, using additional accessories, to perform various diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. ACMI Circon's Semi-Rigid Ureteroscopes are intended for use by qualified physicians to provide access to the urinary tract to perform various diagnostic and therapeutic procedures.
Device Description
ACMI Circon's Semi-Rigid Ureteroscopes are substantially equivalent to other currently marketed ureteroscopes, referenced above. The Semi-Rigid Ureteroscopes and their predicate device(s) are all telescopes that incorporate fiber optical lenses and working channels within a semirigid shaft. The working channels of the Semi-Rigid Ureteroscopes and predicate device(s) allow the insertion of accessory instrumentation during urinary tract procedures. Both the Semi-Rigid Ureteroscopes and the predicate device(s) may be connected to an external light source to permit better illumination of the bladder surfaces.

No
The description focuses on the mechanical and optical components of a standard ureteroscope and explicitly states "Not Found" for mentions of AI, DNN, or ML.

Yes
The device is described as being used with additional accessories "to perform various diagnostic and therapeutic procedures."

Yes
The device's intended use explicitly states "to perform various diagnostic and therapeutic procedures" in the urinary tract.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a telescope with fiber optical lenses and working channels within a semirigid shaft, indicating it is a physical hardware device.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for the examination and operation of the urinary tract and performing diagnostic and therapeutic procedures within the body. This is an in vivo use, not in vitro (outside the body).
  • Device Description: The description details a telescope with fiber optics and working channels for inserting instruments into the urinary tract. This aligns with an in vivo surgical or diagnostic tool.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing samples (like blood, urine, tissue) outside the body, which is the core function of an IVD.

Therefore, this device is a medical device used for procedures performed directly on the patient's urinary tract, not for testing samples in vitro.

§ 876.1500 Endoscope and accessories.

(a)
Identification. An endoscope and accessories is a device used to provide access, illumination, and allow observation or manipulation of body cavities, hollow organs, and canals. The device consists of various rigid or flexible instruments that are inserted into body spaces and may include an optical system for conveying an image to the user's eye and their accessories may assist in gaining access or increase the versatility and augment the capabilities of the devices. Examples of devices that are within this generic type of device include cleaning accessories for endoscopes, photographic accessories for endoscopes, nonpowered anoscopes, binolcular attachments for endoscopes, pocket battery boxes, flexible or rigid choledochoscopes, colonoscopes, diagnostic cystoscopes, cystourethroscopes, enteroscopes, esophagogastroduodenoscopes, rigid esophagoscopes, fiberoptic illuminators for endoscopes, incandescent endoscope lamps, biliary pancreatoscopes, proctoscopes, resectoscopes, nephroscopes, sigmoidoscopes, ureteroscopes, urethroscopes, endomagnetic retrievers, cytology brushes for endoscopes, and lubricating jelly for transurethral surgical instruments. This section does not apply to endoscopes that have specialized uses in other medical specialty areas and that are covered by classification regulations in other parts of the device classification regulations.(b)
Classification —(1)Class II (special controls). The device, when it is an endoscope disinfectant basin, which consists solely of a container that holds disinfectant and endoscopes and accessories; an endoscopic magnetic retriever intended for single use; sterile scissors for cystoscope intended for single use; a disposable, non-powered endoscopic grasping/cutting instrument intended for single use; a diagnostic incandescent light source; a fiberoptic photographic light source; a routine fiberoptic light source; an endoscopic sponge carrier; a xenon arc endoscope light source; an endoscope transformer; an LED light source; or a gastroenterology-urology endoscopic guidewire, is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 876.9.(2) Class I for the photographic accessories for endoscope, miscellaneous bulb adapter for endoscope, binocular attachment for endoscope, eyepiece attachment for prescription lens, teaching attachment, inflation bulb, measuring device for panendoscope, photographic equipment for physiologic function monitor, special lens instrument for endoscope, smoke removal tube, rechargeable battery box, pocket battery box, bite block for endoscope, and cleaning brush for endoscope. The devices subject to this paragraph (b)(2) are exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807of this chapter, subject to the limitations in § 876.9.
