Intended Use
The Captura® Disposable Hot Biopsy Forceps is used endoscopically in conjunction with monopolar electrosurgical current to obtain gastrointestinal mucosal tissue biopsies and for removal of sessile polyps. This device is indicated for adult use only.
Device Description
The Captura® Disposable Hot Biopsy Forceps is a sterile, single use device compatible with the accessory channel of endoscopes. The device consists of stainless steel forceps cups joined to a spool handle by a Pebax-coated stainless steel coilspring catheter and stainless steel drive cable. The handle's spool actuates the opening and closing of the forceps cups and its brass electrosurgical pin is intended for connection to an electrosurgical generator.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a mechanical device for tissue biopsy and polyp removal, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities, image processing, or data analysis.

No
The device is used to obtain tissue biopsies and remove polyps, which are diagnostic and procedural functions, not therapeutic treatments for a disease or condition.

No

Explanation: The device is described as a biopsy forceps used to obtain tissue, not to analyze or diagnose the tissue. The performance studies focus on mechanical and electrical safety, not diagnostic accuracy.

No

The device description clearly outlines physical components such as stainless steel forceps cups, a spool handle, a Pebax-coated stainless steel coilspring catheter, a stainless steel drive cable, and a brass electrosurgical pin. This indicates it is a hardware device, not software-only.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to obtain tissue biopsies and remove polyps endoscopically using electrosurgical current. This is a procedure performed on the patient, not a test performed on a sample taken from the patient to diagnose a condition.
  • Device Description: The device is a tool for performing a surgical procedure (biopsy and polyp removal), not a reagent, instrument, or system intended for use in the examination of specimens derived from the human body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing samples, detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information based on laboratory testing.

IVDs are devices used to perform tests on samples (like blood, urine, tissue) outside of the body to diagnose diseases or conditions. This device is used within the body to collect a sample and remove tissue.

Dear Ashley Howard:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820);
