No.
The device is an accessory to an endoscope, an instrument that allows for visualization, but the device itself does not directly treat a disease or condition. It controls fluid and gas flow and prevents leakage during endoscopic procedures.

No

The device is a collection of sterile components (valves, connectors) designed to control the flow of fluids and gases in an endoscope and prevent leakage or backflow during procedures. Its function is to facilitate the endoscopic procedure, not to diagnose a condition.

No

The device is a collection of physical, sterile units (valves and connectors) intended to be fitted to an endoscope. The description focuses on the mechanical function and physical properties of these components, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Function: The Disposable Endoscope Valve Sets are mechanical components designed to control the flow of fluids and gases within an endoscope during a procedure performed on the patient. They facilitate the endoscopic procedure itself, rather than analyzing samples taken from the patient.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes controlling flow, preventing leakage, and providing irrigation during an endoscopic procedure. There is no mention of analyzing patient samples.
  • Device Description: The description focuses on the mechanical function of the valves in relation to the endoscope and the procedure.
  • Lack of IVD Indicators: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, diagnostic information, or any of the typical characteristics of an IVD.

Therefore, this device is a surgical accessory used during an endoscopic procedure, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Discussion on differences between the subject device and the predicate device

Discussion 1: Although shelf life between the subject device and the predicate device is different, sterile process validation and shelf-life validation including performance test are performed on the subject device according to relevant standards, such differences will not affect the safety and effectiveness of the subject device.

VII. Summary of substantial equivalence discussion

Based on the above comparison table, the subject device and the predicate device are totally same on design features and performance specifications. There are no differences on device composition, specification and component material used as well on both devices. the only differences between the subject device and the predicate device are the sterile barrier system and other packages used for both devices. As all sterile process validation and shelf-life validation including performance test, transportation simulated test and biocompatibility tests are performed on the subject device according to relevant standards, such differences between the subject device and the predicate device do not affect the safety and effectiveness of the subject device when used as labeled.
