Intended Use
The Single-use Bronchoscope have been designed to be used with the Image Processor, endotherapy accessories and other ancillary equipment for endoscopy within the airways and tracheobronchial tree. The Bronchoscope System is for use in a hospital environment. The Single-use is a single-use device designed for use in adults.
Device Description
The Bronchoscope System consists of Single-use Bronchoscope (six models shown in below) to be introduced within the airways or tracheobronchial tree and Image Processor (model: VLM-02) for clinical image processing. The Flexible Bronchoscope is inserted through the airways and tracheobronchial tree during Bronchoscopy. The Image Processor provides power and processes the images for medical electronic endoscope. The Single-use Bronchoscope is a sterile single used flexible bronchoscope. The Image Processor is a reusable monitor. The light emitted by the LED cold light source at the distal tip of the Single-use Bronchoscope is irradiated into the body cavity, and the light reflected from the cavity enters the optical system and is captured by the CMOS image sensor. The CMOS acquisition image is controlled by the CMOS drive circuit, and the RGB video signal is output to the Image Processor via the VI circuit. The Image Processor receives video signals from the endoscope, processes the video signals, and outputs the processed video signal to the monitor. The Image Processor also controls the brightness of the LEDs on the endoscope. The optical components and their arrangement at the distal tip for all models of the Singleuse Bronchoscope are identical. Single-use Bronchoscope has the following physical and performance characteristics: - Maneuverable tip controlled by the user - Flexible insertion cord - Camera and LED light source at the distal tip - Sterilized by Ethylene Oxide - For single use Image Processor has the following physical and performance characteristics: - Display the image from the Single-use Bronchoscope on the screen ● - Can record screenshots or video of image from the Single-use Bronchoscope - Can connect to an external monitor ● - Reusable device
More Information

No
The description focuses on standard image processing and hardware components without mentioning AI/ML algorithms or capabilities.

No.
The device is described as a bronchoscope system for imaging within the airways and tracheobronchial tree, not for treating any condition. Its purpose is solely for visualization and image processing.

Yes

The bronchoscope system allows for visualization within the airways and tracheobronchial tree, which is a diagnostic function used to observe abnormalities. While it also facilitates endotherapy, the core function of imaging the internal body for medical evaluation constitutes a diagnostic purpose.

No

The device description clearly outlines both hardware components (Single-use Bronchoscope with camera, LED, optical system, CMOS sensor, and the Image Processor) and software components (image processing, recording, display control). The performance studies also include hardware-specific testing like biocompatibility, sterilization, electrical safety, and mechanical testing, in addition to software verification and validation.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for direct visualization within the airways and tracheobronchial tree using a bronchoscope. This is a procedure performed in vivo (within the living body) for diagnostic and potentially therapeutic purposes (with accessories).
  • Device Description: The device is a bronchoscope system that captures images from inside the body. It does not analyze samples of human origin (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) in vitro (outside the body) to provide diagnostic information.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description focuses on the optical and mechanical performance of the bronchoscope and image processing for visualization. There is no mention of reagents, calibrators, controls, or any other components typically associated with IVD devices.

IVD devices are specifically designed to perform tests on samples taken from the human body to provide information about a person's health status. This bronchoscope system is a medical device used for direct visualization and intervention within the body.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

The following performance data were provided in support of the substantial equivalence determination.

Biocompatibility testing of the Single-use Bronchoscope was evaluated in accordance with the FDA guidance "Use of International Standard ISO 10993-1, "Biological evaluation of medical devices - Part 1: Evaluation and testing within a risk management process" and International Standard ISO 10993-1 "Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices – Part 1: Evaluation and Testing Within a Risk Management Process," as recognized by FDA. The following tests were performed, as recommended: Cytotoxicity, Sensitization, Intradermal reactivity. The Single-use Bronchoscope is considered surface - mucosal membrane contacting for a duration of less than 24 hours.

Sterilization and shelf life testing: The Single-use Bronchoscope is provided sterile and its shelf-life is 3 years. Sterilization Process has been validated in accordance with ISO 11135:2014. EO/ECH residual test was performed according to ISO 10993-7:2008. The shelf life is determined based on optical testing and product performance testing after accelerated aging test according to ASTM F1980-16 Standard Guide for Accelerated Aging of Sterile Barrier Systems for Medical Devices. Package validation was conducted according to ISO 11607-1:2019 and ISO 11607-2:2019, and ASTM F1886/F1886M-16, ASTM F88/F88M-15, ASTM F 1929-15.

Electrical safety and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC): Electrical safety and EMC testing were conducted on the Bronchoscope System. The system complies with the IEC 60601-1 and IEC60601-2-18 for safety and the IEC 60601-1-2 for EMC.

Software Verification and Validation Testing: Software verification and validation testing were conducted, and documentation was provided as recommended by FDA's Guidance for Industry and FDA Staff, "Guidance for the Content of Premarket Submissions for Software Contained in Medical Devices." The software for this device was considered as a "moderate" level of concern.

Bench performance testing: The following bench tests were performed:

  1. Optical performance testing according to ISO 8600 series.
  2. Color performance (color reproduction), geometric distortion, optical performance (resolution, depth of field and image intensity uniformity), SNR and dynamic range, image frame frequency and system delay test compared with the predicate device.
  3. Mechanical testings including suction and bending testing.

Clinical study: No clinical study is included in this submission.

Conclusion: Performance testing and compliance with voluntary standards demonstrate that the proposed subject device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
