Intended Use

The ViziShot 2 FLEX has been designed to be used with ultrasound endoscopes for ultrasound guided fine needle aspiration (FNA) and fine needle biopsy (FNB) of submucosal and extramural lesions of the tracheobronchial tree. Do not use this device for any purpose other than its intended use.

Device Description

The subject device, ViziShot 2 FLEX is a single use aspiration needle to be used in conjunction with compatible ultrasound endoscopes for ultrasound guided fine needle aspiration (FNA) and fine needle biopsy (FNB) of submucosal and extramural lesions of the tracheobronchial tree.

The subject device consists of a handle, sheath, needle, and stylet. The sheath and needle are attached to the handle, and the removable stylet is located within the needle. Note that although, the device has a component called a needle, the device is often referred to as a needle as well. The device is a single-use sterile device.

Prior to a procedure, the flexible catheter portion is inserted into a bronchoscope's working channel (2.2mm) and advanced forward until fully inserted. The handle is then affixed to the channel port of the endoscope via a lever mechanism that locks onto the Adapter Biopsy Valve.

The needle is advanced through the bronchoscope to the sampling site while visualizing both the target and the needle in real time with ultrasound. The handle facilitates advancement of the needle during puncture of the targeted biopsy site. The sample is obtained by penetrating the lesion with the needle while applying suction at the proximal end of the handle. After completing the sampling, the vacuum from the syringe is released to atmosphere, the handle unlocked from the bronchoscope, and the catheter and needle pulled out from the working channel. The removed tissue can then be prepared for cytopathological or microbiological examination and testing.

The ViziShot 2 FLEX is available in one model only (NA-U403SX-4019), with a needle size of 19 gauge (19G). The two required accessories, the Adapter Biopsy Valve and the Merit Syringe with Stopcock, are packaged with the ViziShot 2 FLEX.

AI/ML Overview

The ViziShot 2 FLEX is a single-use aspiration needle used with ultrasound endoscopes for ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration (FNA) and fine needle biopsy (FNB) of lesions in the tracheobronchial tree. The device is identical to a previously marketed device (K163469) in formulation, processing, sterilization, and geometry, with the proposed addition of "fine needle biopsy (FNB)" to its Indications for Use, which aligns with the primary predicate device (Cook Echotip Procore Endobronchial High Definition Ultrasound Biopsy Needle, K160229).

Here's the breakdown of its acceptance criteria and the study conducted to prove it:

1. Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

Acceptance Criteria / TestReported Device Performance
Biocompatibility (per ISO 10993-1, -4, -5, -10, -11, USP <151>, USP <85>)All patient-contacting surfaces were tested and found to be biocompatible, demonstrating compliance with the specified international and national standards. The device is classified as external communicating, blood path (indirect), and limited duration (<24 hours).
Sterilization/Shelf Life (per ANSI/AAMI/ISO 11607-1, 11135-1, ASTM F1980-16)Sterilization (ethylene oxide) and packaging were validated. Packaging integrity and performance testing, including accelerated aging per ASTM F1980-16, support a labeled three-year shelf life. The device is delivered sterile and intended for single-patient use.
Bench Performance (Design Verification)The device was evaluated against physical and performance specifications, addressing outputs of the design process. Tests included: - Sheath and Needle Insertion and Withdrawal Force - Stylet Insertion and Withdrawal Force - Bronchoscope Angulation - Activation Force - Plastic Deformation Angle - Penetration Force - Transmission Force - Device Durability/Handle Durability - Bronchoscope Adapter Sliding Force - Handle Durability - Sheath to Handle Joint Strength - Echogenicity A GLP Comparison study was performed against the predicate (Echotip Procore Endobronchial High Definition Ultrasound Biopsy Needle). This study aimed to determine if the ViziShot 2 FLEX 19G needle obtained sufficient tissue samples for histologic and core sample analysis and provided similar quality samples as the predicate. Observations included ease of needle passage through tissue and tissue sampling metrics (weight, length, number of segments, and quality for microscopic evaluation). The results supported the substantial equivalence of the proposed device to the predicate in its ability to obtain adequate tissue samples.

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

  • Sample Size for Test Set: The document does not specify a distinct "test set" sample size in terms of clinical cases or patient data, as no clinical or animal studies were performed for this submission. The performance testing was primarily bench-based. For the GLP comparison study, the "test article" was the ViziShot 2 FLEX 19G Needle and the "predicate control article" was the Echotip Procore Endobronchial High Definition Ultrasound Biopsy Needle. The number of individual devices or samples tested in this comparison is not explicitly stated, but it would involve a sufficient number to generate statistically meaningful results for mechanical and tissue sampling performance.
  • Data Provenance: The data provenance is primarily from bench testing conducted in a laboratory setting. No country of origin for clinical or patient data is applicable as such studies were not performed. The GLP comparison study implies a controlled laboratory environment.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts

Since no human "ground truth" (e.g., expert consensus on medical images or pathology slides) was established for a clinical test set, this section is not applicable. The performance tests rely on objective measurements and comparisons, and the GLP comparison study would involve personnel qualified in laboratory testing and potentially pathology for tissue evaluation, though their specific number and qualifications are not detailed.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

Not applicable, as no clinical test set requiring expert adjudication was conducted.

5. If a Multi-reader Multi-case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study Was Done

No, a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was not performed. The submission explicitly states "No clinical study was performed to demonstrate substantial equivalence." Therefore, no effect size of human readers improving with or without AI assistance is available.

6. If a Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) Was Done

This device is a physical medical instrument (an aspiration needle), not an algorithm or AI software. Therefore, the concept of "standalone (algorithm only)" performance is not applicable. The performance evaluated relates to the physical and functional aspects of the needle itself.

7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

For the substantial equivalence determination, the "ground truth" for the device's performance was established through:

  • Objective Measurements and Standards: Compliance with international and national standards for biocompatibility, sterilization, and packaging/shelf-life (e.g., ISO 10993 series, ANSI/AAMI/ISO standards, ASTM standards).
  • Bench Testing Specifications: Evaluation against predefined physical and performance specifications (e.g., insertion/withdrawal forces, durability, echogenicity).
  • Comparison to Predicate: The ability to obtain sufficient tissue samples for histologic and core sample analysis, and similar quality of samples, compared to a legally marketed predicate device (Cook Echotip Procore Endobronchial High Definition Ultrasound Biopsy Needle) in a GLP (Good Laboratory Practice) study.

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

Not applicable. This device is a physical medical device, not an AI/ML algorithm that requires a "training set."

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

Not applicable, as there is no training set for this device.
