No
The device description and performance studies focus on mechanical and usability aspects of a physical access channel, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate AI/ML.
No
The device is described as an "access channel" for introducing tools and a "means for bronchoalveolar lavage," not as directly treating or curing a condition itself.
No
The device is an access channel for endoscopic tools and allows for bronchoalveolar lavage, which are procedures for treatment and fluid collection, respectively, not diagnosis. It facilitates other diagnostic tools but is not diagnostic itself.
No
The device description clearly outlines a physical, single-use disposable device consisting of a hollow tube, flexible tip, radiopaque marker, and adaptor. It undergoes sterilization and mechanical testing, indicating it is a hardware device.
Based on the provided information, the Pulmo Via Working Channel is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices intended for use in the collection, preparation, and examination of specimens taken from the human body (such as blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnostic purposes.
- Pulmo Via Working Channel's Intended Use: The intended use of the Pulmo Via Working Channel is to provide an access channel for introducing bronchoscopes and other tools to treat targeted tissue in the airways, and for bronchoalveolar lavage. This is a therapeutic and procedural access device, not a device for analyzing specimens for diagnostic information.
- Device Description: The device description focuses on its physical characteristics as a hollow tube for access and navigation, not on any components or functions related to analyzing biological samples.
- Lack of IVD-related information: The document does not mention any aspects related to specimen collection, preparation, analysis, or diagnostic interpretation, which are hallmarks of IVD devices.
Therefore, the Pulmo Via Working Channel is a medical device used for procedural access and treatment within the airways, not an in vitro diagnostic device.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use

Device Description
The PulmoVia Working Channel is a single-use disposable, terminally-sterilized device for transtracheal access to bronchi of the lungs, and consists of a hollow tube with an angled flexible tip to assist in anatomical navigation. A radiopaque marker is located 4 mm from the distal tip to aid in localization under fluoroscopy/CT. Printed markings are positioned at 370 mm from the distal tip, and every 50 mm proximally from that point. The distal tip of the device has a pliable leading edge.
The device also contains a disposable Tuohy-Borst adaptor to allow use of third-party devices such as ultrathin bronchoscopes. The full assembly will be packaged in a polyethylene and Tyvek pouch, sterilized via ethylene oxide (EO).

DEVICE DESCRIPTION 4.
The PulmoVia Working Channel is a single-use disposable, terminally-sterilized device for transtracheal access to bronchi of the lungs, and consists of a hollow tube with an angled flexible tip to assist in anatomical navigation. A radiopaque marker is located 4 mm from the distal tip to aid in localization under fluoroscopy/CT.

5. INDICATION FOR USE/INTENDED USE
The PulmoVia Working Channel is intended to be used as an access channel through which a bronchoscope and other endoscopic tools may be introduced to treat targeted tissue of the airways. The PulmoVia Working Channel can also provide means for bronchoalyeolar lavage. The PulmoVia Working Channel is indicated for adult patients.
SUMMARY OF TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS COMPARED TO THE PREDICATE 6. DEVICES
Both the proposed PulmoVia Working Channel and the predicate Lung Point Sheath are catheters designed for use with a bronchoscope to reach a targeted area of the bronchial tree. The working length of the PulmoVia Working Channel (485 mm) is less than that of the predicate Lung Point Sheath and reference devices. The inner diameter of the catheter (5.25 mm) is greater than that of the Lung Point and Olympus Guide Sheath. The inner diameter was established in order to be compatible with bronchoscopes with an OD of 4.0 mm.
The predicate Lung Point Sheath is supplied with a stylet. Neither the proposed PulmoVia Working Channel nor the reference device Olympus Guide Sheath are supplied with a stylet.
The proposed PulmoVia Working Channel has an angled, flexible tip to aid in navigation of the PulmoVia Working Channel within the lung. The BAL Cath tip is also designed with a flexible tip.
The materials used for the proposed device are provided in the side-by-side comparison table. Like the predicate devices, the PulmoVia Working Channel sheath and connector are composed of polymers. As will be discussed in Section 7, the PulmoVia Working Channel meets the biocompatibility requirements of ISO 10993-1:2009 for the nature and duration of contact.
SUMMARY OF NON-CLINICAL PERFORMANCE TESTING AS BASIS FOR SUBSTANTIAL 7. EQUIVALENCE
Non-clinical performance testing consisted of sterility, shelf-life, packaging validation, transport, biocompatibility and mechanical bench testing which demonstrated that the device met all mechanical design and safety requirements.
The biocompatibility testing included:
- . Cytotoxicity (ISO 10993-5:2009, Biological Evaluation Of Medical Devices - Part 5: Tests For In Vitro Cytotoxicity)
5
- Irritation/ Intracutaneous (ISO 10993-10:2010, Biological Evaluation Of Medical ● Devices - Part 10: Tests For Irritation And Skin Sensitization)
- Sensitization (ISO 10993-10:2010, Biological Evaluation Of Medical Devices Part . 10: Tests For Irritation And Skin Sensitization)
- Acute systemic toxicity (ISO 10993-11:2006, Biological Evaluation Of Medical . Devices - Part 11: Tests For Systemic Toxicity)
- . Pyrogenicity (ISO 10993-11:2006 Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices - Part 11: Tests for Systemic Toxicity)
The mechanical testing included: (Side by side testing indicated by an asterisk *)
- . Pull test*
- Torque test*
- Kink test* ●
- . Bend test*
- . Leak test*
- Vacuum test*
- Operating temperature/humidity test* ●
- Radiopaque test ●
- Gravity fed hydrostatic flow test* ●
SUMMARY OF CLINICAL TESTING AS BASIS FOR SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE 8.
No clinical studies were performed using the PulmoVia Working Channel. Usability assessments were conducted in a simulated use environment to optimize the safety of the device design and validate the usability of the device. The results demonstrated that users can operate the PulmoVia Working Channel safely and effectively.
SUMMARY OF OTHER INFORMATION 9.
No other information is available.
10. CONCLUSIONS DRAWN FROM NON-CLINICAL AND CLINICAL TESTS
Non-clinical testing confirms that the PulmoVia Working Channel is sterile, has a packaging system adequate to maintain sterility and transportation hazards, and a validated shelf life. The PulmoVia Working Channel is biocompatible and side by side testing confirms that the proposed device has equivalent physical and mechanical characteristics to the identified predicates. Human factors testing confirms that users can operate the PulmoVia Working Channel safely and effectively.
6
The similarities in intended use, operational characteristics, functional technological characteristics and conclusions drawn from nonclinical testing between the proposed PulmoVia Working Channel and the predicate LungPoint Sheath and KimVent BAL Cath lead to a conclusion of substantial equivalence between the proposed and predicate devices. A side-by-side comparison of the predicate devices and the proposed device is provided in the table at the end of this section.
