No
The device description focuses on the physical components and optical system of a standard endoscope, with no mention of AI/ML capabilities or image processing beyond basic visualization.
No.
The device is described as an endoscope primarily for visualization for diagnostic and surgical procedures, which is a diagnostic tool, not a therapeutic one. The accessories listed are also tools for surgery rather than a therapeutic treatment.
Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the device is "intended to visualize the inside of the patient through a cannulated incision for diagnostic and surgical procedures".
No
The device description clearly outlines physical components like a rod lens system, surgical steel tubes, light-carrying fibers, and various accessories, indicating it is a hardware device, not software-only.
Based on the provided information, the asap multiscope is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to "visualize the inside of the patient through a cannulated incision for diagnostic and surgical procedures." This describes a device used in vivo (within the living body) for direct visualization during procedures.
- Device Description: The description details a rigid or semiflex-type endoscope with optical components, working channels, and irrigation channels. This is consistent with a surgical endoscope used for direct visualization and manipulation within the body.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) in vitro (outside the living body) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. The asap multiscope does not perform this function. It is used to directly visualize the internal anatomy of the patient.
Therefore, the asap multiscope is a surgical endoscope, not an in vitro diagnostic device.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The asap multiscope is intended to visualize the inside of the patient through a cannulated incision for diagnostic and surgical procedures, such as arthroplasty, nucleotomy, discectomy, and foraminotomy.

Device Description
The asap multiscope is a rigid or semiflex-type multi-channel endoscope provided with a rod lens system to transmit light and images, a working channel and one or two irrigation channel(s) and stopcocks. The body consists of an outer and an inner tube of surgical steel. The light-carrying fibers are sandwiched between these tubes. The inner tube of the body contains the rod lens system, the working channel and the irrigation/suction channel(s). The eyepiece and light post are adaptable to standard endoscopic cameras and light systems. The endoscope is intended for use with standard working sheaths (cannulas) for minimally invasive access. Accessories include working sheaths, spinal needles, guide wire, dilators, trephine, hammers, trocars, forceps, and rongeurs, as well as cleaning brushes, a rubber sealing cap, spare O-rings, and a protection sheath.

5.6 Technological Characteristics
The asap multiscope is a multi-channel endoscope used to visualize the operative site and provided with a working channel and irrigation channel(s). It is a rigid or semiflex-type endoscope consisting of three basic components through which light is projected into the operation site and a video image is produced on an external video . The asap multiscope has a snap coupler or smart lock connector enabling replacement of the eyepiece by a standard camera.
Performance Data 5.7
Specifications and intended use of the asap multiscope are the same as those of the predicate devices. There are no significant differences between the asap multiscope and the predicates in design or usage conditions. Materials are identical to those of the predicate devices, ensuring high performance and biocompatibility.
The device will be sold non-sterile for steam sterilization by the user. The recommended cleaning and sterilization processes have been validated.
Performance testing was conducted according to the applicable sections of standard IEC 60601-2-18. Medical Electrical Equipment - Part 2: Particular Requirements for the Safety of Endoscopic Equipment.
5.8 Conclusions
The information provided in this 510(k) submission provides reasonable assurance that the asap multiscope is safe and effective and that it is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices with respect to intended use and technological characteristics.
