Intended Use
The OptiCLEAN Lens Irrigator is a disposable device to be used in combination with a 10 mm diameter scope to prevent dimming and fogging of the lens. The OptiDOCK Tissue Ligator is a disposable device intended to pass an absorbable suture loop during endoscopic procedures.
Device Description
The MedChannel OptiCLEAN Lens Irrigator is a single lumen endoscopic lens irrigator, designed for attachment to 10 mm diameter endoscopes. The irrigator comes in two sizes 285 mm or 305 mm, depending on surgeon's preference. The lens irrigator provides irrigation to the lens of an endoscope to prevent dimming and fogging of the lens during endoscopic surgical procedures. The MedChannel OptiDOCK Tissue Ligator is a single use disposable suture passer, designed for use during endoscopic procedures. The OptiDOCK Tissue Ligator is pre loaded with PGA suture (USP 2-0).

No
The document describes simple mechanical devices for irrigation and suture passing, with no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or data-driven performance metrics.

No
The OptiCLEAN Lens Irrigator is described as preventing dimming and fogging of an endoscope lens, which is a functional enhancement for the medical device (endoscope), not a direct treatment or diagnosis for a patient's medical condition. The OptiDOCK Tissue Ligator is a suture passer, which is a surgical tool for performing a procedure, not a device that provides therapy.

No

The devices described, the OptiCLEAN Lens Irrigator and the OptiDOCK Tissue Ligator, are tools used to facilitate surgical procedures (preventing lens fogging/dimming and passing sutures). They do not collect or analyze data to diagnose a condition.

No

The device description clearly describes physical, disposable hardware components (lens irrigator and tissue ligator) used during endoscopic procedures. There is no mention of software as the primary or sole component.

Based on the provided information, neither the OptiCLEAN Lens Irrigator nor the OptiDOCK Tissue Ligator are IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) devices.

Here's why:

  • IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • The descriptions of both devices clearly indicate they are used during endoscopic surgical procedures, directly interacting with the patient's body or the surgical environment.
  • The OptiCLEAN Lens Irrigator is used to prevent dimming and fogging of the endoscope lens, which is a technical function related to the imaging equipment, not a diagnostic test on a specimen.
  • The OptiDOCK Tissue Ligator is used to pass a suture loop during surgery, which is a surgical manipulation, not a diagnostic test on a specimen.

Therefore, these devices fall under the category of surgical instruments or accessories used in vivo (within the living body), not in vitro (in glass/outside the living body) diagnostics.

§ 878.4493 Absorbable poly(glycolide/l-lactide) surgical suture.

(a)
Identification. An absorbable poly(glycolide/l-lactide) surgical suture (PGL suture) is an absorbable sterile, flexible strand as prepared and synthesized from homopolymers of glycolide and copolymers made from 90 percent glycolide and 10 percent l-lactide, and is indicated for use in soft tissue approximation. A PGL suture meets United States Pharmacopeia (U.S.P.) requirements as described in the U.S.P. “Monograph for Absorbable Surgical Sutures;” it may be monofilament or multifilament (braided) in form; it may be uncoated or coated; and it may be undyed or dyed with an FDA-approved color additive. Also, the suture may be provided with or without a standard needle attached.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The special control for this device is FDA's “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Surgical Sutures; Guidance for Industry and FDA.” See § 878.1(e) for the availability of this guidance document.
