Intended Use
Aesculap's Paediscope is intended for use in endoscope-assisted microneurosurgery and pure neuroendoscopy (i.e. Ventriculosopy) for direct visualization, diagnostic and/or therapeutic neuroendoscopy (for ventriculostomies, biopsies and removal of cysts, tumors and other obstructions.
Device Description
Aesculap's Paediscope combines the features of both flexible and rigid scopes. The distal end is a rigid neuroendoscope with a 3.0mm diameter. The rigid part includes one operating channel and two neuroendoscopes with a prism. The flexible part ends at the standard adapters for light cables and eyepiece connection. The flexible outpatient part allows more flexibility and reduces the weight of the scope part introduced into the patient. The Paediscope can be used in adult and pediatric patients. Micro-instruments are included with the Paediscope for the cutting and grasping biopsies and the removal of cysts, tumors and other obstructions.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a mechanical endoscope with optical components and instruments. There is no mention of software, image processing, or any terms related to AI/ML.

Yes
The device's intended use explicitly states "diagnostic and/or therapeutic neuroendoscopy" and lists activities like "ventriculostomies, biopsies and removal of cysts, tumors and other obstructions," which are therapeutic interventions.

Yes

The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the device is intended for "direct visualization, diagnostic and/or therapeutic neuroendoscopy". This indicates its use in diagnostic procedures.

No

The device description clearly outlines physical components like a rigid neuroendoscope, flexible parts, operating channels, prisms, and micro-instruments, indicating it is a hardware device.

Based on the provided information, the Aesculap's Paediscope is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's for "direct visualization, diagnostic and/or therapeutic neuroendoscopy." This involves directly visualizing and manipulating tissues within the body, not analyzing samples taken from the body (which is the core of IVD).
  • Device Description: The description details a surgical instrument used for internal procedures, including visualization, cutting, and grasping. This aligns with a surgical or diagnostic instrument used in vivo, not an IVD device used in vitro.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, tissue, etc.), reagents, or any of the typical components or processes associated with IVD testing.

Therefore, the Aesculap's Paediscope is a medical device used for surgical and diagnostic procedures within the body, not an IVD device.
