Intended Use
The Single-use Flexible Ureteroscope is designed for use with Vathin Display Units, endotherapy accessories and other ancillary devices for the endoscopy and endoscopic surgery within urinary tract and kidney in adults. The Digital Video Monitor is specially designed to be used with medical endoscopes and other auxiliary equipment for the purposes of endoscopic diagnosis, treatment and video observation.
Device Description
The Video Ureteroscope System consists of Single-use Flexible Ureteroscope (Model:US-S2600, US-E2600) and Digital Video Monitor(Model:DVM-B1) . During diagnosis and treatment with the Video Ureteroscope System, the Single-use Flexible Ureteroscope is inserted into the ureter or into the kidney or renal pelvis through the ureter, and the image sensor (CMOS) at the end of the Single-use Flexible Ureteroscope converts the received mucosal reflected light signals into electrical signals , transmitted to the Digital Video Monitor through the cable, the Digital Video Monitor receives the image signal from the endoscope and processes it, converts it into an image signal that can be displayed on the display screen, and finally presents it on the screen of the display.

No
The description focuses on standard video processing and display, with no mention of AI/ML terms or functionalities like image analysis for diagnosis or treatment guidance.

Yes.
The device description explicitly states its use for "endoscopic diagnosis, treatment and video observation" within the urinary tract and kidney. The mention of "endotherapy accessories" further supports its role in therapeutic interventions.

Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the Digital Video Monitor is designed for "endoscopic diagnosis." The device description further elaborates on how images are captured and displayed for observation, which is fundamental to diagnosis.

No

The device description clearly outlines hardware components: a Single-use Flexible Ureteroscope with an image sensor (CMOS) and a Digital Video Monitor. The system relies on the interaction and function of these physical components to capture and display images.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device is for "endoscopy and endoscopic surgery within urinary tract and kidney in adults." This describes a procedure performed on the patient's body to visualize and potentially treat internal structures.
  • Device Description: The description details how the device captures images of the urinary tract and displays them. This is a direct visualization tool.
  • Lack of In Vitro Activity: An IVD device is designed to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) outside of the body to provide information about a patient's health. This device does not perform any analysis on such specimens.

The device is a medical endoscope system used for direct visualization and intervention within the body, which falls under a different regulatory category than IVDs.

Dear Du Jing:

We have reviewed your section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database available at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898.
