Intended Use
The Girgis Scope Video 200 Double Bladed Laryngoscope (GSV200.DBL) is indicated to improve direct visualization of larynx and assist in both non-complicated and difficult intubation of unpredictable airway condition.
Device Description
GSV200.DBL is designed to assist in tracheal intubation procedure by direct visualization of laryngeal anatomy in closed position and use movable blade with camera as accessory from different angle in open position. The physical shape of GSV200.DBL is a modification of traditional Macintosh blade similar to Propper flip tip laryngoscope with added movable blade with camera as accessory to provide visualization to insert endotracheal tube. Girgis Scope Video DBL is designed to use two power sources, one in the stationary handle for fiber optic illumination of the airway and the second in the DVR monitor to illuminate the Larynx for the video camera. Battery chargers, cables to computer and cable to connect to TV screen are accessories included in the kit. The GSV200.DBL is provided non-sterile and is reusable and can be disassembled to provide cleaning and disinfection.
More Information

No
The description focuses on the mechanical design and video capabilities for direct visualization, with no mention of AI or ML for image analysis or decision support.

No
The device is designed to improve visualization during intubation, which is a diagnostic and procedural aid, not a therapeutic intervention itself. It does not treat or cure a disease or condition.

No

The device is designed to assist in tracheal intubation by direct visualization, primarily as an aid for a medical procedure rather than to diagnose a condition or disease.

No

The device description clearly outlines physical hardware components including a laryngoscope blade, handle, movable blade with camera, power sources, DVR monitor, battery chargers, and cables.

Based on the provided information, the Girgis Scope Video 200 Double Bladed Laryngoscope (GSV200.DBL) is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to "improve direct visualization of larynx and assist in both non-complicated and difficult intubation of unpredictable airway condition." This describes a device used in vivo (within a living organism) to aid in a medical procedure (intubation).
  • Device Description: The description details a physical instrument used to visualize the larynx and assist in inserting a tube into the trachea. It involves direct interaction with the patient's anatomy.
  • Anatomical Site: The device is used on the "Larynx, airway," which are parts of the human body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: IVD devices are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, tissue) outside of the body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. The GSV200.DBL does not perform any such analysis of biological specimens.

Therefore, the GSV200.DBL is a medical device used for a procedural purpose, not an IVD.

Discussion of Technological Characteristics

    1. Propper Flip-Tip™ Laryngoscope blade (K915804) and the GBV200.DBL Laryngoscope both have a flexible tip that is adjustable to 70 degrees using a levering system which includes a movable handle, tip and spring mechanism and both offer fiber optic illumination.
    1. Both devices are anatomically designed to improve visibility of the epiglottis and reduce teeth damage. Both devices provide a laryngoscope stationary handle containing batteries, Propper utilizes C Batteries and GBV200.DBL a rechargeable battery, to power light bulb through their fibro-optic bundle which provides bright white illumination.
  • Both systems have a stationary handle and in addition to the Propper design the 4. GSV200.DBL uses a ratchet spring holder with a ball joint socket that locks the movable blade in closed position while introducing the two blades in patient mouth and unlocks to open position in step by step progression.
  • In addition to the Propper laryngoscope design, GSV200.DBL uses the movable blade, which 5. is attached to the movable handle and articulates with stationary blade so movement in the movable handle is transmitted to the movable blade to:
    • A. To create a pathway to introduce the endotracheal tube with ease
    • B. The movable blade carries camera arrangement as accessory for indirect visualization of laryngeal anatomy in unpredictable difficult intubation. The camera angle will be looking upward and forward to show the most anterior position of larynx in difficult intubation
    1. Both offer a reusable Flexi-Tip style laryngoscope blade, both recommend pre-vacuum sterilization at 132°C for 4 minutes.

No clinical studies were conducted.

Conclusion

The Girgis Scope Video 200 Double Bladed Laryngoscope model (GSV200.DBL) has the same indications for use, flexible tip design, fiber optic bundle for lighting, laryngoscope blade design, laryngoscope handle design, same methods of sterilization, and similar nonclinical testing and are battery operated as the Propper Flip-Tip Laryngoscope (K915804). The DVR accessory improves visualization of the epiglottis and the usability study demonstrated ease-of-use of the system. Based on the similarities of the two laryngoscope systems no different questions of safety and effectiveness have been raised and we conclude that our laryngoscope system is substantially equivalent to the predicate laryngoscope system.
