Yes
The 'Intended Use / Indications for Use' explicitly states "diagnosis and/or therapy". Additionally, the device is used with "endoscopic accessories and auxiliary instruments" in procedures in urology, surgery, and GYN, which often involve therapeutic interventions.
Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" explicitly states "For examination, diagnosis and/or therapy". The mention of diagnosis clearly indicates it is a diagnostic device.
No
The device description explicitly states it consists of a flexible insertion part, a control part, and an eyepiece, which are all hardware components.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states "For examination, diagnosis and/or therapy in connection with endoscopic accessories and auxiliary instruments used through the working channel of the instrument for use in urology, surgery, and GYN." This describes a device used within the body for direct visualization and intervention, not for testing samples outside the body.
- Device Description: The description of a "flexible fiberscope" with an insertion part, control part, and eyepiece aligns with an endoscopic device used for internal examination.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) or performing tests on these samples to provide diagnostic information.
IVD devices are specifically designed to perform tests on samples taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device's function is direct visualization and access for procedures within the body.

2.0 Intended Use
Flexible fiberscopes are used for examination, diagnosis, and/or therapy in connection with endoscopic accessories and auxiliary instruments used through the working channel of the instrument for use in urology, surgery, and OB/GYN.
3.0 Technological Characteristics
There are no significant technological changes or characteristics to the new devices compared to the existing devices.
The tip of the sheath has an active deflection up to 360°, depending on the fiberscope. The deflecting position can be locked with a brake at the 7305.001. The image is transmitted via objective, fiber bundle and eyepiece for direct view or connection to a video camera. The total number of pixels and the fibers per mm2 are increased to get an image with higher resolution. Biopsy material can be taken by the wide working channel, which is simultaneously used for irrigation. Auxiliary instruments such as grasping forceps, stone extractors or HF button electrode are inserted via a proximal mounted insertion cock with supply and discharge. A leakage test unit or a gas sterilization valve can be connected to an attachment of the fiberscope.
