The summary describes a physical barrier sheath for endoscopes and does not mention any software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI/ML.
No
Explanation: The device is a barrier sheath for flexible endoscopes, designed to provide a protective covering and eliminate the need for high-level disinfection. It does not exert any therapeutic effect on the patient.
No
This device is described as a "sterile, single-use device that covers the entire patient contact surface of flexible endoscopes" to eliminate the need for high-level disinfection. Its purpose is to act as a barrier sheath for endoscopes, not to diagnose medical conditions—it facilitates the use of other diagnostic tools (endoscopes) by maintaining sterility.
No
The device description clearly states it is a "sterile, single-use device that covers the entire patient contact surface of flexible endoscopes" and is "composed of a contiguous polymeric sheath, with an optical window at the distal end which is preloaded on a deployment tube." This describes a physical, hardware-based medical device, not software.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to provide a sterile, disposable protective covering for flexible endoscopes during endoscopic examinations of various anatomical sites. This is a physical barrier function, not a diagnostic test performed on samples taken from the body.
- Device Description: The device is described as a physical sheath that covers the endoscope. While it has an optical window and potentially channels for instruments, its primary function is to prevent contact between the endoscope and the patient's tissues.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to analyze biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) or to provide diagnostic information based on such analysis. IVDs are typically used to detect, measure, or identify substances or characteristics in these samples to aid in diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
The device is clearly intended for use during a medical procedure (endoscopy) to maintain sterility and reduce the need for high-level disinfection of the endoscope, which is a procedural and infection control function, not a diagnostic one.

Substantial Equivalence Comparison
The intended use of the EndoMedical Technologics Quik-Cover™ is similar to the predicate devices in that the sheaths are sterile, disposable protective accessories used to cover endoscopes, cathelers or instruments to help prevent the transmission of pathogens.
The EndoMedical Technologies Quik-Cover™ device configuration is similar to the predicate devices in that all devices are comprised of a membrane sheath, a proximal connector and, with respect to the that an are novel a ventify a distal polymeric window. Some models of the EndoMedical Technologies Quik-Cover™ and predicate devices also include a side working channel. The EndoMedical Technologics Quik-Cover™ application method is similar to the predicate devices ir that the shealth slides on and off with no vacuum/ pressure source required.
The EndoMedical Technologies Quik-Cover™ sheath material is identical to the sheath material for the Memcath Urology Introducer Sheath (K000767) and the SLIP Urology Introducer Sheath (K042531) predicate devices. Safety and performance characteristics related to minor design differences have been addressed through the following nonclinical tests:
- Optical qualities of sheath window .
- Sheath mechanical tests .
- . Finished device barrier testing
Nonclinical performance testing demonstrated that the EndoMedical Technologies Quik-Cover reliably achieves the desired affect and is safe for its intended use. No new questions of safety or effectiveness for endoscope barrier sheaths were raised during the testing. The EndoMedical Technologies Quilt-Cover Flexible Endoscope Barrier Sheath is, therefore, substantially equivalent to currently marketed devices.
