No.
The device is used for the collection and retrieval of surface cells for diagnostic processing and analysis, not for treating a disease or condition.
No
This device is a cell collection device, designed to collect cells for diagnostic processing and analysis, but it does not perform the diagnosis itself.
No
The device description clearly outlines a physical, single-use disposable non-endoscopic balloon capsule catheter and associated components (syringe, packaging). It is a hardware device for cell collection.
Based on the provided information, the EsoCheck Cell Collection Device itself is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Its function is collection: The device's primary purpose is to collect cells from the esophagus. It is a tool for obtaining a specimen.
- Diagnostic processing happens after collection: The description explicitly states, "The specimen is then sent for diagnostic processing and analysis." This indicates that the diagnostic steps occur after the device has completed its function of collecting the sample.
- IVDs are used on the specimen: IVDs are typically reagents, instruments, or systems intended for use in vitro (outside the body) for the examination of specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic purposes.
The EsoCheck Cell Collection Device is a specimen collection device, which is a crucial part of the diagnostic process, but it is not the diagnostic test itself. The collected cells would then be used in an IVD test to perform the actual diagnosis.

Device Description
The EsoCheck Cell Collection Device is a sterile single-use disposable non-endoscopic balloon capsule catheter designed to collect and retrieve surface cells of the esophagus. The balloon capsule is attached to a catheter and swallowed with the balloon deflated and inverted. Once positioned, the balloon is inflated and withdrawn allowing its textured surface to swab the surface of the targeted segment of the esophagus, retrieving cells in the process. The balloon is then deflated, retracting it along with the retrieved cells on its surface into the capsule, where they are protected from dilution or contamination as the capsule is fully withdrawn from the patient. The balloon is cut from the capsule and placed in the desired specimen container. The specimen is then sent for diagnostic processing and analysis.
This version of the device is a modification to the predicate EsoCheck CCD Cell Collection Device that was cleared under K183262. The minor changes made to the device include minor changes to the secondary packaging design change (addition of a tether) to increase tensile stiffness of the catheter during removal. In addition, the previous version of the device utilized 2 syringes, a 20cc syringe and a 5cc syringe, to complete the procedure. The modified device will utilize a single 20cc syringe to streamline the process and the syringe will have markings printed on its surface indicating different volumes.
