Intended Use

Sterile gel for human use, e.g. in medical procedures - to aid the introduction of catheters and endoscopic instruments in transurethral examinations, and in intermittent catheterization - particularly for incontinence treatment.

Device Description

Lubricano® Sterile Gel is a sterile, water-soluble gel composed of hydroxyethylcellulose, glycerol, and purified water, which is contained in a 10 mL syringe. Lubricano® Sterile Gel is free from fats, latex, disinfectants and preservatives. Lubricano® Sterile Gel ensures that catheters and instruments move easily, and it adheres well to the mucosa.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text is a 510(k) summary for the Lubricano® Sterile Gel. It describes the device, its intended use, and states its substantial equivalence to a predicate device. However, it does not contain the detailed study information, acceptance criteria, or performance data that would allow me to populate the requested table and answer the specific questions about device performance against acceptance criteria.

The document is a regulatory submission for a medical device (a sterile lubricating gel), which typically relies on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device rather than conducting extensive clinical efficacy studies with predefined acceptance criteria and statistical analysis as would be required for a novel or high-risk device.

Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information from the given text. The provided document focuses on:

  • Description: Composition and properties of the gel.
  • Intended Use: As a lubricant for transurethral procedures.
  • Substantial Equivalence Argument: Stating similarity in intended use and technological characteristics to a predicate device.
  • Safety Profile: Mentioning results of in vivo and in vitro testing establishing safety (non-toxic, non-irritating, non-sensitizing) compared to the predicate.

None of these points include quantitative acceptance criteria, clinical study designs with sample sizes, expert ground truth establishment, or comparative effectiveness studies (MRMC) with human readers.

§ 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.
