Intended Use
The Scope Guard protective sheath is intended for use during the transport, storage and sterilization of certain ACMI scopes for protection of these delicate instruments. It is not intended to be used alone for terminal sterilization but can be used in conjunction with an approved sterilization wrap to maintain sterility until the device is required for use. The ACMI scopes with Scope Guard can be wrapped, or placed into an approved sterilization tray for sterilization processing.
Device Description
The Scope Guard Protective Sheath is a polymer tube in various widths and lengths with evenly distributed holes along the length of the shaft. It is designed to snap onto ACMI telescopes for protection during storage and sterilization.

No
The summary describes a physical protective sheath for surgical scopes and does not mention any software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI or ML.

No
The device is a protective sheath for surgical scopes, intended for transport, storage, and sterilization, not for treating a disease or condition.

No
The document states the device is a protective sheath for storage and sterilization of instruments, not for diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "polymer tube" and describes its physical characteristics and function as a protective sheath, 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 clearly states the device is for "protection during the transport, storage and sterilization of certain ACMI scopes." This is a function related to the handling and processing of surgical instruments, not for performing diagnostic tests on samples taken from the human body.
  • Device Description: The description of a "polymer tube in various widths and lengths with evenly distributed holes" designed to "snap onto ACMI telescopes for protection" aligns with a device for instrument handling and sterilization, not an IVD.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The document does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Detecting or measuring substances in samples
    • Providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening of diseases or conditions

The device's function is entirely focused on the physical protection and sterilization of surgical scopes, which falls outside the scope of In Vitro Diagnostics.

§ 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.
