4. Product Description

The Olympus Light-Guide Cables that are subject to this submission are intended to transmit light from the light source to an optical instrument. For that purpose the Light-Guide Cable includes a bundle of optical fibers as transmission medium. The light guide adapters are intended for the mechanical connection of the Light-Guide Cables to light sources or to endoscopes.

There are two variants of Light-Guide Cables which differ according to the shaft diameter of the connected endoscope. Cable WA03300A (2.8 mm, 3 m, CF type) can be combined with endoscopes, which have a diameter ≤ 4.1mm. Endoscopes with a diameter > 4.1mm are combined with WA03310A (4.25 mm, 3 m, CF type). Otherwise the Light-Guide Cables are identical.

5. Indications for Use

light energy Transmission from the light of source to an optical instrument. The light-guide cable is used to transmit light during endoscopic procedures or or for other medical illumination application when the properties and operating instructions are complied with. The light-guide cable is designed for use with halogen, xenon or LED based light sources of cold light which are utilized in medical applications that involve endoscopes, medical instruments or microscopes.

6. Comparison of Technological characteristics

The subject and predicate device K111342 are based on the same technological principle with the same elements:

  • I In both cases an illumination of the operation field by transmitting of visual light is indicated during surgical procedure or endoscopic diagnosis/therapy.
  • Dimensions differ. Subject Device: WA03300A: 2.8 mm, 3 m, CF type; and WA03310A: 4.25 mm, 3 m, CF type. Predicate Device: 1,8m - 3m depending on device model.
  • 트 Both devices consist of fused optical fibers: Glass fibers fused into fenules on both ends. The ends are polished to transmit light.
  • I The subject and predicate device both use the same type of fiber: GOF85
  • Fiber cross section of subject and predicate device. The fiber cross-section results in a different amount of brightness.

5

  • The Light-Guide Cables use the same materials for the outer tube: Silicone
  • . The Light-Guide Cables use the same materials for the connector: stainless steel.
  • . Both devices are not have patient contact and no patient contacting materials.
  • 트 Both devices stating different combination information. The subject device is provided in a "ready to use" state in combination with Olympus products.
  • . The subject device has an additional Olympus connector and additional inner stainless steel wire for better mechanical protection
  • 트 Design changes of the cables are minor and do not negatively impact safety or effectiveness of the subject devices

As stated above, the subject and predicate devices have similar design characteristics and performance specifications, with the exception of the cross-sections, variations of the cables in length and dimension and an additional stainless steel wire in the subject device. These minor differences, however, do not raise different questions of safety or effectiveness. As demonstrated in the non-clinical testing (e.g. electrical safety, Bench Testing, reprocessing validation) and the Substantial Evidence Discussion (Section 6), the different technological characteristics do not affect the safety and effectiveness of the subject devices.

Based on the information presented above, Olympus Winter & Ibe GmbH believes that the subject device Light-Guide Cables are substantially equivalent to the cited predicate device (K111342) and that the differences between devices are minor and raise no new issues of safety or effectiveness.

7. Performance Data

The Light-Guide Cables comply with all applicable requirements/standards as listed in Appendix IIIc of this submission.

9. Reprocessing, Sterilization and Shelf Life

The Light-Guide Cables are delivered in unsterile condition and thus have no shelf life, but rather a defined lifetime. This lifetime can be specified as a certain number of cycles for reprocessing. For the Light-Guide Cables, the expected service lifetime is 400 reprocessing cycles.

The products are delivered in unsterile condition and should be reprocessed before first and each subsequent use. The product should be cleaned manually or automatically, before being inspected and then sterilized with steam or hydrogen peroxide plasma. Validated Sterilization methods for Light-Guide Cables WA03300A and WA03310A are Hydrogen peroxide plasma sterilization (Sterrad 100S, Sterrad NX, Sterrad 100NX), Steam Sterilization (Autoclave, prevacuum) and Vaporized hydrogen peroxide (Steris V-PRO maX, Steris V-PRO maX 2, Steris V-PRO s2 and Steris V-PRO 60).

Olympus recommends automated cleaning and steam sterilization for this product.

10. Conclusion

The performance data support the safety and effectiveness of the subject device and demonstrate that the subject device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.

In conclusion, the Light-Guide Cables are substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
