Intended Use
SAPIMED's Sigmoidoscopes are used to examine the rectum and lower bowel and, using additional accessories, perform various diagnostic and/or therapeutic procedures.
Device Description
The Proctoscopy set consists of a multi-use plastic Grip (Ref. A.4131) and a choice of 3 different single use Insertion Tubes (Ref. A.4113, A.4120, A.4125). Each insertion tube comes with a matching obturator to facilitate the atraumatic insertion of the tube into the rectum. The multi-use plastic Grip (Ref. A.4131) consists of the following elements: 1. A hollow handle designed to connect to the light source (either a fiberoptic cable or a pen-light). 2. A circular frontal opening designed to connect to the Insertion Tube. 3. A posterior hinged closure containing both the lens and the insufflator attachment. The insufflator is a hand squeeze ball with a one-way valve as also used in manual blood pressure measuring devices. The Sigmoidoscope Kit MRP (ref. A.4522) consists of a Rigid Proctosigmoidoscope insertion tube and a plastic grip.

Explanation: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the sigmoidoscopes can "perform various diagnostic and/or therapeutic procedures."

No

The device description clearly outlines physical components like a plastic grip, insertion tubes, obturators, a handle for light source connection, a lens, an insufflator, and a hand squeeze ball. These are all hardware components, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections. They are used to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Function: The SAPIMED Sigmoidoscopes are used to directly visualize the rectum and lower bowel and perform procedures within the body. They are not analyzing samples taken from the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states examination and procedures within the rectum and lower bowel.
  • Device Description: The description details a device for insertion and visualization, not for analyzing biological samples.

Therefore, this device falls under the category of a medical device used for direct examination and intervention, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

§ 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.

Dear Ms. Smith:

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, stylized "FDA" with the word "Centennial" underneath. There are three stars at the bottom of the logo. The logo appears to be a commemorative emblem for the centennial anniversary of the Food and Drug Administration.
