The ClearCap Distal Attachment is intended for the following: - · Gastrointestinal mucosal resection (endoscopic mucosal resection) - · Keeping the suitable depth of the endoscope's view field
Device Description
The ClearCap Distal Attachment is a sterile distal attachment intended to improve endoscopic control and to help maintain the clear view by keeping a moderate distance from the tissues during endoscopic surgical procedures. The ClearCap Distal Attachment is comprised of three main sections: an attaching portion, a distal portion and draining holes. The attaching portion is connecting portion of the attachment to an applicable endoscope; a distal portion is the ending portion of the attachment and the 2 draining holes on the sidewall are to discharge bleeding and some foreign matter. Applicable lesions are both lower digestive tract (=gastrointestinal (GI) tract) and upper GI tract. The model name FM-CC01, FM-CC05, FM-CC06 and FM-CC07 are for lower GI Tract, and FM-CC02, FM-CC03 and FM-CC04 are for upper GI tract. It is available in various sizes of diameter to assure the compatibility of various endoscope outer diameters. The average contact time of the product and the mucosa of the human digestive tract is less than 1 hour. This device is supplied sterile for single-patient use and shall be not reused or resterilized.

The device description and intended use focus on a mechanical attachment for endoscopes, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities for image analysis, diagnosis, or any other function.

No.
The "ClearCap Distal Attachment" is an accessory for endoscopes designed to facilitate endoscopic therapy by improving control and maintaining a clear view during procedures like gastrointestinal mucosal resection. It is not directly therapeutic itself but enables a therapeutic procedure.

No

The device is described as a "distal attachment" to an endoscope to "facilitate endoscopic therapy" and "improve endoscopic control and to help maintain the clear view" during "endoscopic surgical procedures." Its intended uses are "Gastrointestinal mucosal resection (endoscopic mucosal resection)" and "Keeping the suitable depth of the endoscope's view field." These functions are therapeutic and supportive of therapy, not diagnostic.

No

The device description clearly states it is a physical attachment comprised of three main sections (attaching portion, distal portion, draining holes) intended to be attached to an endoscope. It is a sterile, single-use hardware component.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections. They are used to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Function: The ClearCap Distal Attachment is a physical accessory attached to an endoscope. Its function is to facilitate endoscopic procedures by improving control, maintaining a clear view, and assisting with procedures like mucosal resection. It does not analyze biological samples.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes its role in endoscopic therapy and maintaining the view field during these procedures. It does not mention any diagnostic testing of biological samples.
  • Device Description: The description focuses on the physical components and how it attaches to the endoscope to aid in the procedure. There is no mention of analyzing samples.

Therefore, the ClearCap Distal Attachment is a medical device used during an endoscopic procedure, not an in vitro diagnostic device that analyzes samples outside the body.

Substantial Equivalence
DiscussionThe differences between the subject and the predicate devices are below:
  • Overall Length: The overall length is 14.00mm, which is 3.0mm longer than the
    predicate device. This additional length allows for better maintenance of a consistent
    distance between the mucosal layers.
  • Inner Diameter of distal end: The smaller distal end in conical shape makes it easier
    to access the dissected submucosal layer.
  • Shape of the drain: The number of draining holes is the same, but the draining holes
    have been modified to oval shape to facilitate suction function.
    We have conducted risk analysis and the verification and validation activities for the
    modifications, and the test results support that the differences do not raise any
    questions of substantial equivalence to the declared predicates. | |

8. Non-clinical Tests

The ClearCap Distal Attachment and the predicate devices in the market have the substantially equivalent technological characteristics. Risks associated with the changes were identified and appropriate design controls implemented to mitigate the risks.

To validate the control of the risks, direct comparison testing between the subject device models and predicate device models for gap, endoscope compatibility and viewing, and suction function were performed.

9. Conclusion:

Based on the information provided herein and the test results, we conclude that the subject device is substantially equivalent to its predicate device.The nonclincal tests demonstrate that the device is as safe, as effective, and performs as well as the predicate device.
