Intended Use
The Articulating Xenoscope is intended to be used in diagnostic and therapeutic procedures for endoscopy and endoscopic surgery within the thoracic and peritoneal cavities including the female reproductive organs.
Device Description
The Articulating Xenoscope™ System contains two separate functioning components. First is the single-use, sterile Articulating Xenoscope™ Laparoscope Device, which includes a 0° camera on 5 mm rigid shaft with a ± 30° articulating tip, 10 cm or 36 cm long shaft, and high-definition video image. For certain procedures the shorter 10 cm laparoscope is preferred. Likewise, for other procedures, the longer 36 cm laparoscope is preferred. Except for the length difference, the scientific principles, materials of construction and design are otherwise identical. The second is the XenoBox™, which converts the digital signal from the camera to HDMI signal for display onto the HD video screen for the surgeon to view. Together, the Xenoscope™ and the Xenobox™ comprise the Xenoscope™ Laparoscopic System and work synergistically together.
More Information

No
The description focuses on the mechanical and signal conversion aspects of the device, and explicitly states that mentions of AI, DNN, or ML were "Not Found".

Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the device is "intended to be used in diagnostic and therapeutic procedures."

Yes
Explanation: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the device is "intended to be used in diagnostic and therapeutic procedures".

No

The device description clearly outlines two hardware components: the Articulating Xenoscope™ Laparoscope Device (a physical scope with a camera and articulating tip) and the XenoBox™ (a hardware component that converts the digital signal). This is not a software-only device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for "diagnostic and therapeutic procedures for endoscopy and endoscopic surgery within the thoracic and peritoneal cavities". This describes a device used directly on or within the patient's body for visualization and surgical intervention.
  • Device Description: The description details a laparoscope (a surgical instrument with a camera) and a system to display the video feed. This is consistent with a surgical imaging and access device, not a device used to test samples in vitro (outside the body).
  • Anatomical Site: The specified anatomical sites are within the patient's body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) or performing tests on these samples to diagnose a condition.

IVD devices are specifically designed to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, prevention, monitoring, treatment, or alleviation of disease. This device does not fit that description.

Technological Characteristics and Substantial Equivalence Comparative Analysis:

Modifications in design and materials of the previously 510(k) cleared Xenoscope Laparoscope device (K161838) resulted in two (2) additional models (XSA-0-0510, XSA-0-0536) which include a smaller 5mm diameter rigid carbon fiber shaft with articulating tip and handle features. The camera is the same as the predicate, and the combined 6 smaller LED's of the subject device equal the 1 larger LED of the predicate in energy and light output.

It has been demonstrated that the modified Xenoscope™ Laparoscopic device is comparable to the predicate and reference device in intended use, fundamental scientific technology, design, principles of operation and functional performance evaluations and is substantially equivalent as summarized in Table 1. The Articulating Xenoscope™ Laparoscopic System has been fully assessed within the Xenocor® Risk Management and Design Controls systems. The differences raise no additional or different questions of safety or effectiveness from that already identified for the predicate and reference devices.
