The device description and performance studies focus solely on the mechanical function and biocompatibility of a disposable biopsy valve, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities.
No.
The device's intended use is to cover the biopsy/suction channel of endoscopes, provide access for devices, maintain insufflation, and minimize leakage, which are supportive functions for an endoscopic procedure rather than directly treating a medical condition or restoring health.
No
This device is designed to provide access for instruments, maintain insufflation, and minimize leakage during endoscopic procedures. It does not perform any diagnostic functions or analyze patient data to determine the presence or nature of a disease.
No
The device description clearly details a physical, disposable biopsy valve made of a cylindrical base and cap, designed to attach to endoscopes. It describes physical components, seals, and mechanical functions, indicating it is a hardware device, not software.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device is used to cover the biopsy/suction channel of endoscopes and facilitates the passage of endoscopic devices, maintains insufflation, and minimizes leakage of biomaterial during an endoscopic procedure. This is a functional accessory used in vivo (within the body) during a medical procedure.
- Device Description: The description details a mechanical valve designed to attach to an endoscope and manage access and sealing of the working channel. It does not describe any components or functions related to testing samples in vitro (outside the body) to diagnose a condition.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) to provide diagnostic information. The device's function is purely procedural and supportive during the endoscopy.
IVD devices are specifically designed to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment of a disease or condition. This device does not fit that description.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Disposable Biopsy Valve is used to cover the biopsy/suction channel of Olympus® and Fujinon® or Pentax® gastrointestinal endoscopes. It provides access for endoscopic device passage and exchange, helps maintain sufflation, minimizes leakage of biomaterial from the biopsy port throughout the endoscopic procedure, and provides access for irrigation.

Device Description
The Disposable Biopsy Valve is provided non-sterile, and is composed of a cylindrical base and a connected cap. The Disposable Biopsy Valve provides sealable access via the working channel port of an endoscope for surgical instruments. The valve consists of an attached cap and valve body with a circular opening. The cap is pre-perforated, and ensures instrument access and removal is tight and leak-free. The valve is designed with a hollow body with a distal end that releasably attaches to the inlet port of the working channel. The valve body provides a flexible diaphragm seal that separates the body into a proximal chamber and distal chamber. The distal chamber secures onto the endoscope, while the proximal chamber secures the cap. Instruments are inserted through the cap and chambers, through the diaphragm seal, and into the endoscope. The diaphragm seal is configured such that a seal is formed due to deformation of the elastomer around an instrument when it is inserted through the opening, preventing fluids from passing through the biopsy valve. The cap serves two primary functions. One function of the cap is to provide an additional seal around surgical instruments to prevent leakage. The second function is to allow modification of pressure during insufflation by opening the cap, allowing gasses to flow from the endoscope, and out of the biopsy valve.

The main difference is the dimension about Valve Inner , because their criteria are different. The inneter criterion of primary predicate device is 1.651mm (.065") and the proposed device is1.81mm(.071"). But they each meet their own design requirements, usually, the O.D. of the devices ≥2.0mm used cooperatively with the inner diameter of the biopsy valve. So we think the proposed device meet the Clinical requirements, the proposed device and predicate device are substantial equivalent.

7. Non-Clinical Testing:
The device has undergone both bench testing of performance and laboratory biocompatibility testing for cytotoxicity, sensitization, intracutaneous injection test, and system injection test, in accordance with 21 CFR, Part 58. The Single Use Biopsy Valve results in no safety or efficacy concerns regarding biocompatibility or performance. Likewise, in conformance with 21 CFR 807.92(b)(3), the device performs as well as the predicate in all testing performed.
8. Conclusions
Chuangxiang medical has demonstrated that the proposed Disposable Biopsy Valve is substantially equivalent to Medovations and Endochoice, Inc. currently marketed Medovations BullDog® Biopsy Valves (K142068) and Seal Single-use Biopsy Valve (K161167).
