No
The summary describes a mechanical device for irrigation and suction during endoscopy and does not mention any AI/ML components or capabilities.
No
The device is described as an irrigation and evacuation tool used during endoscopic procedures, not for treating a disease or condition.
No
The device is described as an irrigation and evacuation system for the upper GI tract during endoscopic procedures. Its intended use is for cleaning and evacuating fluid, blood, and bile, which are therapeutic and procedural functions, not diagnostic ones.
No
The device description explicitly lists physical components (suction tube + tip, irrigation tube + tip, sleeve) and describes its connection to other physical devices (ClearPath Controller and ClearPath Tubing). The performance studies also involve bench and animal testing of these physical components.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is for irrigating, cleaning, and evacuating the upper digestive tract during endoscopic procedures. This is a therapeutic or procedural use, not a diagnostic one.
- Device Description: The device is a physical tool used to facilitate a medical procedure (endoscopy). It doesn't analyze biological samples to provide diagnostic information.
- Lack of Diagnostic Elements: There is no mention of analyzing blood, tissue, or other bodily fluids for diagnostic purposes. The focus is on clearing the field of view and removing debris during the procedure.
- No Mention of Diagnostic Metrics: The performance studies focus on mechanical and functional aspects of the device during the procedure (e.g., dislodgement, maneuverability, irrigation quality, suction quality), not on diagnostic accuracy metrics like sensitivity, specificity, etc.
IVD devices are specifically designed to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for the diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment of a disease or condition. This device does not fit that description.

§ 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.
