The device description clearly describes a physical, reusable biopsy valve made of material that deforms to create a seal. It includes instructions for physical attachment, instrument passage, and cleaning/disinfection, 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 clearly describes a device that facilitates endoscopic procedures by providing access for instruments, maintaining insufflation, minimizing leakage, and allowing irrigation. These are all functions related to the performance of a medical procedure within the body, not the examination of specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or compatibility testing.
- Device Description: The description details a physical valve that attaches to an endoscope's biopsy port. Its function is mechanical – creating a seal and allowing passage of instruments. It does not involve any reagents, calibrators, or other components typically associated with in vitro diagnostic tests.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing samples, detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information. The device's purpose is purely procedural support.
Therefore, this device falls under the category of a medical device used during a procedure, not an in vitro diagnostic device used to analyze samples outside the body.

Device Description
The Seal Reusable biopsy valve is composed of a cylindrical base and a connected cap. The device is designed to mount easily and seal securely on the biopsy port of endoscopes. It allows passage of instruments or devices of up to 3.2 mm in diameter. providing a seal both during use and following removal of the device. The Seal reusable biopsy valve is compatible with Olympus series 160, 180, and 190. Fujinon series 530. 590, and 600, and Fuse gastrointestinal endoscopes.
To use the device, the operator positions the device onto the instrument channel, pushing down on the cap and pressing the valve on the port until it fits snugly. Instruments of up to 3.2 mm in diameter may then be passed through the slit in the diaphragm of the valve. The deformation of the material provides a seal around the introduced device. After the procedure, the instrument is withdrawn prior to removal of the biopsy seal from the port. Users are instructed to remove the cap from the seal prior to pre-cleaning.
By maintaining a seal at the biopsy port, the device allows irrigation access while allowing insufflation to be maintained, and it minimizes leakage of biomaterial from the biopsy port during the endoscopic procedure.
The Seal reusable biopsy valve is provided non-sterile. It does not bear single-use labeling, and includes steps for cleaning and disinfection in the instructions for use (see section 13, proposed labeling).
