Intended Use

The Uro-G flexible cystoscope has been designed for endoscopic diagnosis and infusion of irrigating fluid within the bladder and urethra.

Device Description

The Uro-G cystoscope is a handheld, battery-operated portable cystoscope consisting of a sterile, disposable steerable endoscopic cannula and a reusable handle with a video monitor. The disposable cannula contains a miniature CMOS camera and a light-emitting diode (LED) illumination module at its tip and one channel for infusion of irrigating fluid. The handle is lightweight and ergonomically designed. It has a connector and locking mechanism for attaching and detaching the disposable cannula. The handle contains the remaining electronics, including a power on/off button, a button to adjust the brightness of the LED, a button to allow capture of single images or to start/stop video of the procedure, a video processor, a display unit (LCD display), a rechargeable battery, management electronics, microcontrollers, and firmware.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes the 510(k) summary for the Uro-G Cystoscope. This document primarily focuses on establishing substantial equivalence to a predicate device (Uro-V Cystoscope) rather than presenting a performance study with acceptance criteria in the typical sense of a clinical trial for an AI/ML device.

The "acceptance criteria" for a medical device like a cystoscope typically refer to the performance standards and safety requirements it must meet to be considered safe and effective, often demonstrated through engineering bench testing, biocompatibility, and electrical safety. The "study that proves the device meets the acceptance criteria" in this context refers to these non-clinical tests.

There is no mention of AI/ML components in the Uro-G Cystoscope from the provided text, nor are there any acceptance criteria, sample sizes, or ground truth establishment relevant to AI/ML or comparative effectiveness studies with human readers. The device is a physical endoscope.

Therefore, I will interpret "acceptance criteria" and "study" in the context of a medical device submission focused on equivalence for a non-AI physical device.

Here's the breakdown based on the provided document:


Acceptance Criteria and Study for Uro-G Cystoscope (Non-AI Device)

The Uro-G Cystoscope is a physical medical device. The "acceptance criteria" are based on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device (Uro-V Cystoscope) and compliance with relevant safety and performance standards through non-clinical testing.

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

Acceptance Criteria CategorySpecific Criterion (Implicit/Explicit)Reported Device Performance/Comparison
Predicate EquivalenceIntended Use: "The Uro-G flexible cystoscope has been designed for endoscopic diagnosis and infusion of irrigating fluid within the bladder and urethra."EXACTLY THE SAME as predicate (Uro-V Cystoscope).
Indications for Use: Symptomatic voiding dysfunction, Hematuria, Bladder tumor surveillance, Recurrent lower urinary tract infection, Pelvic pain syndromes.EXACTLY THE SAME as predicate.
Route of Advancement: Advanced to the bladder via the urethra.SAME as predicate.
Site of Use: Hospitals and physician offices.SAME as predicate.
Components: Reusable handle with video screen; Attachable cannula with working channel, illumination source, and camera at tip.**SAME** as predicate (handle is identical, cannula has modifications but core components are the same).
Image Transmission/Display: Image transmitted from video camera at tip to video monitor on handle; 3.5-inch LCD Display.SAME as predicate.
Field of View: 140 degrees.SAME as predicate.

(Note: The handle component's electrical safety and EMC testing from the U-Scope 8000 submission K132384 was applicable).
Mechanical Characteristics: Proper functioning of mechanical components (e.g., deflection mechanism).Tested with successful results.

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

  • Test Set Sample Size: Not applicable in the context of an AI/ML test set. For physical device testing, sample sizes would refer to the number of units tested for each specific bench test (e.g., number of cannulas tested for biocompatibility, sterility, or mechanical deflection). These specific numbers are not provided in this summary, but the document states "All necessary performance testing was conducted with bench testing."
  • Data Provenance: The data comes from the manufacturer's (UroViu Corporation) internal bench testing and verification/validation activities. The document does not specify the country of origin for the data or whether any retrospective/prospective studies (which are clinical by nature) were performed. Since no clinical studies were deemed necessary, the data is entirely from non-clinical (benchtop) sources.

3. Number of Experts and Qualifications for Ground Truth Establishment

  • Not Applicable: This pertains to AI/ML model ground truth, which is not relevant for this physical device. The "ground truth" for this device's performance is established by direct physical measurements, chemical tests, electrical tests, and adherence to engineering specifications and international standards (e.g., ISO, IEC).

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

  • Not Applicable: This pertains to expert review and consensus for AI/ML ground truth. For this physical device, "adjudication" is not needed in the same sense; rather, test results are assessed against predefined engineering and regulatory specifications.

5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study

  • No: An MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not performed. This type of study is relevant for AI/ML diagnostic aids to assess human reader improvement, which is not applicable to a physical endoscope.

6. Standalone Performance (Algorithm Only)

  • Not Applicable: There is no AI/ML algorithm in this device. Its performance is entirely dependent on its physical and electrical characteristics.

7. Type of Ground Truth Used

  • Engineering Specifications and Standard Compliance: The "ground truth" for the device's performance relies on meeting pre-defined engineering specifications, international safety and performance standards (e.g., ISO 10993 for biocompatibility, ISO 60601-1 for electrical safety, ISO 11135-1 for sterilization), and demonstrating physical functionality (e.g., image quality, fluid infusion, tip deflection).

8. Sample Size for the Training Set

  • Not Applicable: This device does not use an AI/ML training set. Its design and manufacturing process are based on engineering principles and established medical device production.

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

  • Not Applicable: As there is no AI/ML training set, this question is not relevant.

Summary for this specific product (Uro-G Cystoscope):

The FDA 510(k) clearance process for the Uro-G Cystoscope primarily relied on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device (Uro-V Cystoscope) and meeting general safety and performance requirements through a series of benchtop engineering tests. Questions related to AI/ML-specific validation (e.g., "AI acceptance criteria," "sample sizes for test/training sets," "expert ground truth," "MRMC studies") are not relevant for this particular device as described in the provided document, as it is a physical, non-AI medical instrument.

Device Description

The Uro-G cystoscope is a handheld, battery-operated portable cystoscope consisting of a sterile, disposable steerable endoscopic cannula and a reusable handle with a video monitor. The disposable cannula contains a miniature CMOS camera and a light-emitting diode (LED) illumination module at its tip and one channel for infusion of irrigating fluid. The handle is lightweight and ergonomically designed. It has a connector and locking mechanism for attaching and detaching the disposable cannula. The handle contains the remaining electronics, including a power on/off button, a button to adjust the brightness of the LED, a button to allow capture of single images or to start/stop video of the procedure, a video processor, a display unit (LCD display), a rechargeable battery, management electronics, microcontrollers, and firmware.

Indications for Use

The indications for use for the Uro-G Cystoscope is:

The Uro-G flexible cystoscope has been designed for endoscopic diagnosis and infusion of irrigating fluid within the bladder and urethra.

Comparison of Technological Characteristics with the Predicate Device

Uro Viu Corp. has identified the Uro-V Cystoscope (K171500, Uro Viu Corp.) as the predicate device. The Uro-V disposable cystoscope is substantially equivalent to the predicate device based upon the following similarities:

    1. The indications for use of both the predicate device and the Uro-G cystoscope are exactly the same: symptomatic voiding dysfunction, hematuria, bladder tumor surveillance, recurrent lower urinary tract infection, and pelvic pain syndromes;

{5}------------------------------------------------

    1. Both devices are introduced into the body via the urethra and then advanced to the bladder under visualization (that is, not a blind advancement);
    1. Both devices have illumination and optic components to permit visualization of the urethra and bladder;
    1. Both devices have the capability to view the urethra and bladder via video monitors;
    1. Both devices have a working channel to allow infusion of fluids; and
    1. Both devices are made from biocompatible materials.

These similarities are not surprising in that the subject and predicate devices are manufactured for Uro Viu Corporation by the same contract manufacturer and both use the same handle with an integrated video screen.

The U-Scope 8000 is a reference device since the same handle is used in the Uro-G cystoscope and so the electrical safety and EM compatibility testing performed in its review-K132384-is applicable for the handle of the Uro-G cystoscope. This is the only part of the submission applicable, so the U-Scope 8000 is not present in the SE comparison table.

Cannula: the light at the tipilluminates the field so that thecamera can transmit images backto the LCD display on the handle.It is a semi-rigid shaft with a tipangle originating by thecompany, SO the user eithernavigates the urethra and lookswithin the bladder by rotating thecannula or can modify the angleof the tip manually beforeinserting the cannula into theuretheral orifice.Cannula: the light at the tipilluminates the field so that thecamera can transmit images backto the LCD display on the handle.The angle of the tip can bemodified by moving a deflectionlever on the proximal portion ofthe cannula, so that the user cannavigate the urethra and lookwithin the bladder by changing thetip angle after inserting thecannula into the urethral orifice.

{8}------------------------------------------------

{9}------------------------------------------------

The changes to the design of the Uro-G cystoscope centers on the cannula for this model; the handle has not changed from what it was in the Uro-V cystoscope submission (K171500). Cytoscopes are available in rigid, semi-rigid, or flexible configurations. Rigid cystoscopes typically are constructed of stainless steel and the shaft/cannula is not intended to bend or deflect. Their use requires that the physician forcethe non-flexible shaft up, down or to the side in order to navigate anatomic structures and obstructions within the urethra and bladder. The Uro-V cystoscope is considered a semi-rigid cystoscope in that its cannula comes out of the pouch in a pre-curved angle of 25° but the user has the ability to change the angle of the cannula before or during the procedure by manually bending the shaft of the cannula to a desired angle. As the Uro-V cystoscope is being advanced, the user can negotiate structures and obstructions my turning the cannula so that the tip advances away from structures/obstructions as it makes its way to the bladder. The Uro-G cystoscope builds on this by providing the user with the ability to change the angle of the cannula's tip by moving a deflection control lever on the proximal portion of the cannula. This capability to manipulate the cannula's tip during use improves ease of use for the physician but does not introduce a reduction in safety since the user can monitor the deflection with continual imaging so that structures can either be avoided or targeted directly if that was the purpose of the procedure.

The specific modifications with the Uro-G cannula are:

{10}------------------------------------------------

    1. The outer diameter (OD) was increased to 5.5 mm. The OD of the Uro-G cystoscope was increased in order to permit an increase in the ID of the working channel to 2.2 mm. Since the urethral diameter of malesranges from 8 to 9 mm and the diameter in females averages 6 mm, this OD does not increase any risk to the device's use. This risk is further reduced since it is standard practice to infuse fluid as a cystoscope is advanced so that the urethra dilates ahead of the tip's position.
    1. The working length was increased to 380 mm, which is about 5 inches longer than the Uro-V model. In clinical work, the length of the Uro-V cystoscope is adequate, but in some patients does not always allow the tip to extend to the distal bladder wall in some male patients. This increase in 5 inches permits tip access to all parts of the bladder and is comparable to the lengths of other cystocopes, which range from 370 to 400 mm.
    1. The working channel has an ID of 2.2 mm.
  • The flexible tip can deflect up to 210 degrees up and 130 degrees down from 4. a straight, non-deflected orientation. Deflection wires embedded into the wall of the cannula that compress or extend basedupon movement of the deflection control lever accomplish this. Active tip deflection is a standard feature of some cystoscopes.
    1. The focal length of the camera is 5 to 50 mm. It is important to maintain focus of an area of interest or surrounding tissue as a cystoscope is being advanced or when targeting a specific anatomical area. This focal length is equivalent to that of the Uro-V cystoscope and also to those of cystoscopes marketed by Storz and Olympus.

Conclusion

The Uro-G and Uro-V cystoscopes have the same intended use, the exact same indications for use, and have equivalent technological characteristics. The minor differences between the Uro-V and the Uro-G cystoscopes do not raise any new issues of safety or effectiveness.

Therefore, the Uro-G cystoscope is substantially equivalent to the identified predicate device.
