No
The description focuses on the mechanical and optical components of a standard endoscope and does not mention any AI/ML capabilities or image processing beyond basic display. The performance studies listed are standard for medical devices and do not indicate AI/ML validation.

Yes
The device is described as allowing 'EndoTherapy accessories to enter into the instrument channel,' indicating its use in performing therapeutic procedures.

Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the instrument is "indicated for use for endoscopic diagnosis."

No

The device description explicitly details multiple hardware components including video connection, light guide connector, control section, and insertion section, and the performance studies include hardware-related testing (reprocessing, biocompatibility, electrical safety, mechanical durability, thermal safety, resolution, phototoxicity).

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 instrument is for "endoscopic diagnosis and treatment" within the nasal lumens and airway anatomy. This involves direct visualization and intervention within the body, not the examination of samples taken from the body.
  • Device Description: The description details the components and function of an endoscope, which is a tool for internal examination and procedures. It does not describe a device that analyzes biological samples.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting specific analytes, or providing diagnostic information based on laboratory testing.

IVD devices are specifically designed to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device is an endoscopic instrument used for direct visualization and intervention within the body.

4. DEVICE DESCRIPTION

■ General Description of the subject device

This instrument is intended to be used with an Olympus video system center, light source, documentation equipment, monitor, EndoTherapy accessories, and other ancillary equipment for endoscopic diagnosis and treatment. This instrument is indicated for use within the nasal lumens and airway anatomy (including nasopharynx and trachea).

It is mainly consisted of four functional parts:

  • video connection section including video connector and video cable that connect the endoscope to the video system center for displaying images on compatible video monitors
  • light guide connector section that links the endoscope with a light source and transmits light to the distal end of the endoscope
  • control section that operates the endoscope such as controlling angulation to guide insertion and observation, activating suction by single-use suction valve and performing treatment by means of allowing EndoTherapy accessories to enter into the instrument channel.
  • insertion section that goes through and contacts with the nasal lumens and airway anatomy (including nasopharynx and trachea) under the light guide.

■ Principle of Operation

  • a. Basic principle
  • -Illumination light supply

The endoscope receives the illumination light from the light source by the light guide connector connected to the light source device. The illumination light is transferred to the distal end through the optical fiber bundle inside of the endoscope and illuminates the inside of the patient body through the illumination lens at the distal end.

5

Image construction -

The endoscope receives the reflected light from the inner lumen of a patient by the objective lens at the distal end. The built-in CCD at the distal end converts the light to the electrical signal, and the signal is sent to the video system center via the electrical cable and the video connector of the endoscope. The endoscope transfers the image signal and displays the observation image on the screen.

Bending operation -

UP/DOWN angulation control lever and RIGHT/LEFT angulation control lever and bending section are connected to each other by an independent wire. It is possible to bend in the up/down direction by operating the UP/DOWN angulation control lever, bend in theright/left direction by operating the RIGHT/LEFTLIGHT angulation control lever, respectively.

b. Technological characteristics

  • -4-direction angulation capability
    Distal end is possible to bend in the UP/DOWN direction up to 130° and RIGHT/LEFT direction up to 70°, respectively.

  • -User interface
    In contrast to predicate device where the operations to combine the rotation of the device body and adjustment of angulation lever to reach an ideal observation site, this new subject device can alter the direction of the distal end by the angulation control levers solely to achieve the same observation effects and avoid potential damage caused by rotating the device body.

5.INDICATIONS FOR USE

This instrument is intended to be used with an Olympus video system center, light source, documentation equipment, monitor, EndoTherapy accessories, and other ancillary equipment for endoscopic diagnosis and treatment. This instrument is indicated for use within the nasal lumens and airway anatomy (including nasopharynx and trachea). This instrument is intended for use in a clinical or ambulatory medical environment.

6. COMPARISON OF TECHNOLOGY CHARACTERISTICS WITH THE PREDICATE DEIVCE

The ENF-VT3 has the same technological characteristics and design as the predicate device except for the following new features:

    1. Changes on the optical system parameters (total number of pixels, resolution, etc.)
    1. Material change of insertion section
    1. Incorporated 4-direction angulation capability
    1. Modify user interface to add RIGHT/LEFT operation
    1. Software implementation to correct the pixel defect

Comments on the difference

  1. The key parameter of observation is the image resolution. The subject device has been designed to improve the image resolution compared to the predicate device. This improvement does not affect the indication use. There is no problem in safety and effectiveness.

  2. Biocompatibility test of the finished form was conducted, and the results support safety and effectiveness of the changed material.

  3. The distal end is possible to bend in the UP/DOWN direction up to 130° and RIGHT/LEFT direction up to 70° respectively. We performed a risk assessment and determined that the residual risk is acceptable.

  4. Although it seems the angulation range has increased in the subject device for the addition of the RIGHT/LEFT angulation, which is more likely to damage adjacent tissues around the observation site, we would like to emphasize that even for the original predicate device, operators are capable of not only changing the angulation by the UP/DOWN control lever inherently set in the device, but also adjusting the direction of the distal end by rotating the whole device by force outside the patient. However, in contrast to the predicate device where the operation to combine the rotation of the device body and adjustment of angulation lever to reach an ideal observation site, this new subject device can alter the direction of the distal end by angulation control levers solely to achieve the same observation effects and avoid the potential damage caused by rotating the device body. In addition, bench test results also demonstrate that the fundamental

function of the subject device has no changes and will not influence safety and effectiveness, and also risk management results considering human factors show that the residual risk is acceptable.

  1. The function of the pixel defect correction was validated and it does not cause any new issue of safety and effectiveness.

All other technological characteristics of both the subject and predicate device are identical. Validation from non-clinical testing demonstrated that these technological features do not raise any new issues of safety or effectiveness of the subject device.

7. PERFORMANCE DATA

The following performance data were provided in support of the substantial equivalence determination.

1) Reprocessing validation testing
