More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a mechanical tissue sampling device and does not mention any AI or ML components or functionalities.

No
The device is described as a tissue sampler and aspiration needle, used for retrieving tissue samples for diagnostic purposes rather than for treating a condition.

Yes

The device is used to retrieve tissue samples from lesions, which are then typically analyzed to diagnose medical conditions.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "transbronchial aspiration needle," which is a physical hardware component used for tissue retrieval. The performance studies also focus on physical characteristics like dimensional, strength, aspiration, and biocompatibility testing, further indicating it is a hardware device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for aspiration in carinal, paratracheal and hilar lesions of the bronchial tree where biopsy forceps cannot obtain a submucosal sample. This describes a procedure to obtain a sample from the body, not a test performed on a sample outside the body.
  • Device Description: The device is described as a transbronchial aspiration needle used for transbronchial retrieval of tissue samples. This further reinforces its role in sample collection from within the body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to analyze or test a sample in vitro (outside the living organism). IVDs are typically used to diagnose diseases or conditions by examining samples like blood, urine, or tissue in a laboratory setting.

The Yield Tissue Sampler is a device used for sample collection from the body, which is a different category of medical device than an IVD.

§ 874.4680 Bronchoscope (flexible or rigid) and accessories.

(a)
Identification. A bronchoscope (flexible or rigid) and accessories is a tubular endoscopic device with any of a group of accessory devices which attach to the bronchoscope and is intended to examine or treat the larynx and tracheobronchial tree. It is typically used with a fiberoptic light source and carrier to provide illumination. The device is made of materials such as stainless steel or flexible plastic. This generic type of device includes the rigid ventilating bronchoscope, rigid nonventilating bronchoscope, nonrigid bronchoscope, laryngeal-bronchial telescope, flexible foreign body claw, bronchoscope tubing, flexible biopsy forceps, rigid biopsy curette, flexible biopsy brush, rigid biopsy forceps, flexible biopsy curette, and rigid bronchoscope aspirating tube, but excludes the fiberoptic light source and carrier.(b)
Classification. Class II.

Dear Mr. Job:

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.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting (reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
