Intended Use
The Flexilux II Cystoscope is - like the predicate device - used to permit direct viewing of the male urethra, prostate, and bladder for purpose of performing diagnostic and surgical procedures. The Flexilux II Hysteroscope is - like the predicate device - used to illuminate and visualize the cervical canal and the uterine cavity for the purpose of performing diagnostic and surgical procedures. The Cystoscope is used to visualize the body cavities, hollow organs and canals during diagnostic and, in conjunction with additional instruments, therapeutic procedures. The Hysteroscope is used to permit direct viewing of the cervical canal and the uterine cavity for the purpose of performing diagnostic and surgical procedures.
Device Description
The Flexilux II Hysteroscope and Cystoscope (herein after; Flexilux II Endoscope) are rigid type endoscopes with traditional compact objectives and rod-lens system. The basic design of the Flexilux II Endoscope is similar to those legally available for sale in the U.S.A... It consists of an eyepiece and the body with light guide and rod-lens system. The body is designed of an outer and an inner tube of surgical stainless steel. The light carrying fibers are sandwiched between these tubes. The inner tube of the body contains the rod-lens system.

No
The description focuses on traditional optical and mechanical components (rod-lens system, light guide) and does not mention any computational or algorithmic processing of images or data that would indicate AI/ML. The performance studies are based on physical and performance characteristics and compliance with standards, not on algorithmic performance metrics.

No.
The device is primarily for visualization (diagnosis) and, when used with other instruments, can assist in therapeutic procedures but is not a therapeutic device itself.

Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the device is "used to permit direct viewing...for purpose of performing diagnostic and surgical procedures." and "used to visualize the body cavities, hollow organs and canals during diagnostic...procedures."

No

The device description explicitly details physical components made of surgical stainless steel, including an eyepiece, body with light guide, rod-lens system, outer and inner tubes, and light carrying fibers. This indicates a hardware-based medical device, not a software-only one.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device is used for "direct viewing" and "visualize" internal body structures (urethra, prostate, bladder, cervical canal, uterine cavity, etc.) for diagnostic and surgical procedures. This is a direct visualization tool used in vivo (within the living body).
  • Device Description: The description details a rigid endoscope with an eyepiece, body, light guide, and rod-lens system. This is consistent with a device used for direct internal viewing.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens in vitro (outside the living body), such as blood, urine, tissue samples, etc. IVDs are designed to perform tests on these types of samples to provide diagnostic information.

The device described is a medical endoscope used for direct visualization within the body, which falls under a different regulatory category than IVDs.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

The specifications and intended use of the Flexilux II Endoscope is the same to those of the claimed predicate devices. There are no significant differences between the Flexilux II Endoscope and the claimed predicates in design or conditions of intended use.

Substantial equivalence for this device was based on a comparison of labeling, physical and performance design characteristics as compared to the predicate devices, as well as on the results of testing to establish compliance with the standards for medical endoscopes and medical electrical equipment (DIN 58105; IEC 60601-2-18).

§ 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.

Dear Mr. Bonneville:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). 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 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Image /page/2/Picture/10 description: The image shows a circular logo with the text "1906-2006" at the top. Below the text is a large "FDA" abbreviation. The word "Centennial" is written below the abbreviation. The logo is surrounded by text that is difficult to read due to the image quality.
