No
The description focuses on mechanical functions (locking, sealing, passage) and does not mention any computational or data-driven capabilities.
No
The device facilitates ERCP procedures by managing guidewires and maintaining insufflation, but it does not directly treat or diagnose a disease or condition.
No
Explanation: The device is intended to facilitate guidewire placement and maintain insufflation during ERCP procedures, acting as an accessory for endoscopic devices, not for diagnosing medical conditions.
No
The device description clearly states it is a physical accessory that fits on an endoscope and is made of materials requiring biocompatibility and sterilization testing, indicating it is a hardware device.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes a device used during a medical procedure (ERCP) to facilitate the passage and locking of a guidewire, maintain insufflation, and minimize leakage. It is a tool used in vivo (within the body) to aid in a diagnostic or therapeutic procedure.
- Device Description: The description reinforces that it's an accessory for an endoscope, used to facilitate device passage and maintain insufflation.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens in vitro (outside the body) to provide information about a physiological state, health, or disease. It doesn't analyze biological samples like blood, urine, or tissue.
Therefore, the AutoCap RX Integrated Biopsy Cap and Guidewire Locking Device is a medical device used during a procedure, not an in vitro diagnostic device.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The AutoCap RX Integrated Biopsy Cap and Guidewire Locking Device is intended to facilitate placement of the guidewire and lock it into place during ERCP procedures. The device access for endoscopic device passage and exchange, helps maintain insufflation, minimizes leakage of biomaterial from the biopsy port throughout the ERCP procedure, and provides access for irrigation.

Device Description
The AutoCap RX is an integrated biopsy cap and guidewire locking device that fits on the biopsy port of an endoscope. The device is an accessory to be used with endoscopic devices to facilitate device passage, maintain insufflation, and lock the guidewire(s) in place during ERCP procedures. The AutoCap RX combines the locking device and the biopsy cap of the predicate, RX Locking Device and Biopsy Cap (K010610), into one integrated unit.
The device consists of a plastic housing that holds a silicone biopsy cap with a foam insert. The plastic housing has molded guidewire locking slots to hold up to two guidewires. The plastic housing fits directly onto the biopsy port of the endoscope. The AutoCap RX is compatible with Olympus ERCP scopes.

Summary of Performance Studies
Non-clinical performance bench testing, simulated use testing, biocompatibility per the requirements of ISO 10993, packaging, and sterilization validation per the requirements of ISO 11135 were completed to evaluate the design of the AutoCap RX for its indications for use.
Bench Testing included:
- Scope Attachment and detachment
- Biopsy Cap Bile Leakage
- Insufflation Ability
- Device Passability
- Guidewire Slippage
- Scope Suction Ability
- Simulated Use testing
All testing was passing and demonstrates the device's ability to fulfill non-clinical performance bench testing, biocompatibility, packaging, and sterilization requirements. The results of the predicate device are also included in the performance section and are comparable to the proposed device.

§ 876.1500 Endoscope and accessories.
(a)
Identification. An endoscope and accessories is a device used to provide access, illumination, and allow observation or manipulation of body cavities, hollow organs, and canals. The device consists of various rigid or flexible instruments that are inserted into body spaces and may include an optical system for conveying an image to the user's eye and their accessories may assist in gaining access or increase the versatility and augment the capabilities of the devices. Examples of devices that are within this generic type of device include cleaning accessories for endoscopes, photographic accessories for endoscopes, nonpowered anoscopes, binolcular attachments for endoscopes, pocket battery boxes, flexible or rigid choledochoscopes, colonoscopes, diagnostic cystoscopes, cystourethroscopes, enteroscopes, esophagogastroduodenoscopes, rigid esophagoscopes, fiberoptic illuminators for endoscopes, incandescent endoscope lamps, biliary pancreatoscopes, proctoscopes, resectoscopes, nephroscopes, sigmoidoscopes, ureteroscopes, urethroscopes, endomagnetic retrievers, cytology brushes for endoscopes, and lubricating jelly for transurethral surgical instruments. This section does not apply to endoscopes that have specialized uses in other medical specialty areas and that are covered by classification regulations in other parts of the device classification regulations.(b)
Classification —(1)Class II (special controls). The device, when it is an endoscope disinfectant basin, which consists solely of a container that holds disinfectant and endoscopes and accessories; an endoscopic magnetic retriever intended for single use; sterile scissors for cystoscope intended for single use; a disposable, non-powered endoscopic grasping/cutting instrument intended for single use; a diagnostic incandescent light source; a fiberoptic photographic light source; a routine fiberoptic light source; an endoscopic sponge carrier; a xenon arc endoscope light source; an endoscope transformer; an LED light source; or a gastroenterology-urology endoscopic guidewire, is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 876.9.(2) Class I for the photographic accessories for endoscope, miscellaneous bulb adapter for endoscope, binocular attachment for endoscope, eyepiece attachment for prescription lens, teaching attachment, inflation bulb, measuring device for panendoscope, photographic equipment for physiologic function monitor, special lens instrument for endoscope, smoke removal tube, rechargeable battery box, pocket battery box, bite block for endoscope, and cleaning brush for endoscope. The devices subject to this paragraph (b)(2) are exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807of this chapter, subject to the limitations in § 876.9.
