No
The description focuses on the physical components and intended use of a rigid endoscope, with no mention of AI, ML, or advanced image processing beyond basic optical viewing. The performance studies section also does not indicate any AI/ML-specific testing.

Yes.
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the device is indicated for "performing diagnostic and therapeutic procedures."

Yes

Explanation: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the device is indicated for "performing diagnostic and therapeutic procedures."

No

The device description explicitly states the device is a rigid endoscope made of stainless steel with an optical and illumination system, indicating it is a physical hardware device.

No, 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 outside of the body (in vitro).
  • Device function: The Olympus Neuro Endoscopes are used inside the body (in vivo) to directly visualize the ventricles of the brain and perform procedures. They are a surgical/diagnostic tool, not a test performed on a sample.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states "viewing the ventricles of the brain and performing diagnostic and therapeutic procedures," which are actions performed directly on the patient.

Therefore, based on the provided information, the Olympus Neuro Endoscopes are not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Dear Ms. Goldstein-Falk:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to 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 (Act). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. 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.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations. Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the current Good Manufacturing Practice requirement, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic (QS) inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations.
