Intended Use
The KSEA Huzly high-frequency cutting loops are designed to remove various pathologies of the bronchi and/or esophagus using high-frequency electrical current during ENT endoscopic surgical procedures.
Device Description
The KSEA Huzly high-frequency cutting loops are manually operated, reusable surgical devices consisting of a bronchoscope tube with a cutting loop and connection for a highfrequency cord. The Huzly high-frequency cutting loops are available in both adult and pediatric sizes, which are long enough to gain access to the surgical area. The body contact materials are surgical grade stainless steel and tungsten.

No
The description focuses on a manually operated, reusable surgical device using high-frequency electrical current for cutting, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities.

No.
The device is described as a surgical tool used to remove pathologies, not to treat or alleviate a disease or condition. Its function is cutting/removal, which is a surgical intervention, not a therapeutic treatment in itself.

No
Explanation: The device is described as a surgical device designed to remove pathologies using high-frequency electrical current, not to diagnose them. Its function is interventional (cutting), not diagnostic.

No

The device description clearly states it is a manually operated, reusable surgical device consisting of a bronchoscope tube with a cutting loop and connection for a high-frequency cord, indicating it is a physical hardware device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to "remove various pathologies of the bronchi and/or esophagus using high-frequency electrical current during ENT endoscopic surgical procedures." This describes a surgical intervention performed directly on the patient's body.
  • Device Description: The device is described as a "manually operated, reusable surgical device consisting of a bronchoscope tube with a cutting loop and connection for a highfrequency cord." This is a surgical instrument used for cutting tissue.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Purpose: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens (like blood, tissue, or urine) outside of the body to diagnose a condition. IVDs are used for diagnostic purposes on samples in vitro (in glass, or outside the living organism).

Therefore, the KSEA Huzly high-frequency cutting loops are a surgical device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

§ 874.4680 Bronchoscope (flexible or rigid) and accessories.

(a)
Identification. A bronchoscope (flexible or rigid) and accessories is a tubular endoscopic device with any of a group of accessory devices which attach to the bronchoscope and is intended to examine or treat the larynx and tracheobronchial tree. It is typically used with a fiberoptic light source and carrier to provide illumination. The device is made of materials such as stainless steel or flexible plastic. This generic type of device includes the rigid ventilating bronchoscope, rigid nonventilating bronchoscope, nonrigid bronchoscope, laryngeal-bronchial telescope, flexible foreign body claw, bronchoscope tubing, flexible biopsy forceps, rigid biopsy curette, flexible biopsy brush, rigid biopsy forceps, flexible biopsy curette, and rigid bronchoscope aspirating tube, but excludes the fiberoptic light source and carrier.(b)
Classification. Class II.

Karl Storz Huzly high-frequency cutting loops

Indication: The KSEA Huzly high-frequency cutting loops are designed to remove various pathologies of the bronchi and/or esophagus using high-frequency electrical current during ENT endoscopic surgical procedures.

Device Description: The KSEA Huzly high-frequency cutting loops are manually operated, reusable surgical devices consisting of a bronchoscope tube with a cutting loop and connection for a highfrequency cord. The Huzly high-frequency cutting loops are available in both adult and pediatric sizes, which are long enough to gain access to the surgical area. The body contact materials are surgical grade stainless steel and tungsten.

Substantial Equivalence: The KSEA Huzly high-frequency cutting loops are substantially equivalent to the predicate devices since the basic features, design and intended uses are the same or similar. The differences in features and dimensions between the KSEA Huzly high-frequency cutting loops and the predicate devices raise no new issues of safety and effectiveness, as these differences have no effect on the performance, function or intended use of these devices.
