The summary describes a standard cystoscope focused on providing visual images and illumination, with no mention of AI, ML, or related technologies.
Yes
The device is a cystoscope used for operative and/or diagnostic cystoscopy, which are medical procedures aimed at treating or diagnosing a condition.
Yes
Explanation: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states, "Our Cystoscopes are used when Operative and/or Diagnostic Cystoscopy is medically indicated." This directly indicates that the device has a diagnostic purpose.
No
The device description explicitly states "Cystoscopes," which are physical medical instruments, and mentions "incoming material registration and testing" and "mechanical and thermic stress testing," all indicative of a 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 for "Operative and/or Diagnostic Cystoscopy," which involves visualizing the inside of the bladder and urethra. This is a procedure performed directly on the patient's body, not on a sample taken from the body.
- Device Description: The description focuses on the manufacturing process and the device's function in providing a visual image and illumination during a procedure.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing samples (like blood, urine, tissue), detecting analytes, or providing information about a patient's health status based on in vitro testing.
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 is a surgical/diagnostic instrument used for direct visualization within the body.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
Our Cystoscopes are used when Operative and/or Diagnostic Cystoscopy is medically indicated.
Cystoscopes are used for 2 tasks: Providing an excellent visual image and good illumination of the operating area.

§ 876.1500 Endoscope and accessories.
(a)
Identification. An endoscope and accessories is a device used to provide access, illumination, and allow observation or manipulation of body cavities, hollow organs, and canals. The device consists of various rigid or flexible instruments that are inserted into body spaces and may include an optical system for conveying an image to the user's eye and their accessories may assist in gaining access or increase the versatility and augment the capabilities of the devices. Examples of devices that are within this generic type of device include cleaning accessories for endoscopes, photographic accessories for endoscopes, nonpowered anoscopes, binolcular attachments for endoscopes, pocket battery boxes, flexible or rigid choledochoscopes, colonoscopes, diagnostic cystoscopes, cystourethroscopes, enteroscopes, esophagogastroduodenoscopes, rigid esophagoscopes, fiberoptic illuminators for endoscopes, incandescent endoscope lamps, biliary pancreatoscopes, proctoscopes, resectoscopes, nephroscopes, sigmoidoscopes, ureteroscopes, urethroscopes, endomagnetic retrievers, cytology brushes for endoscopes, and lubricating jelly for transurethral surgical instruments. This section does not apply to endoscopes that have specialized uses in other medical specialty areas and that are covered by classification regulations in other parts of the device classification regulations.(b)
Classification —(1)Class II (special controls). The device, when it is an endoscope disinfectant basin, which consists solely of a container that holds disinfectant and endoscopes and accessories; an endoscopic magnetic retriever intended for single use; sterile scissors for cystoscope intended for single use; a disposable, non-powered endoscopic grasping/cutting instrument intended for single use; a diagnostic incandescent light source; a fiberoptic photographic light source; a routine fiberoptic light source; an endoscopic sponge carrier; a xenon arc endoscope light source; an endoscope transformer; an LED light source; or a gastroenterology-urology endoscopic guidewire, is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 876.9.(2) Class I for the photographic accessories for endoscope, miscellaneous bulb adapter for endoscope, binocular attachment for endoscope, eyepiece attachment for prescription lens, teaching attachment, inflation bulb, measuring device for panendoscope, photographic equipment for physiologic function monitor, special lens instrument for endoscope, smoke removal tube, rechargeable battery box, pocket battery box, bite block for endoscope, and cleaning brush for endoscope. The devices subject to this paragraph (b)(2) are exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807of this chapter, subject to the limitations in § 876.9.

(Section 807.93) 510(k) Summary
Application: Cystoscopes
A. Summary of Safety and Effectiveness
We compared our Cystoscope prototypes in detail to much older equipment, manufactured by R. Wolf and other Manufacturers and we conclude that our Cystoscopes are as safe and effective as all other devices earlier and currently on the market. Our designs, lens-systems, materials, glues and epoxies are commonly used by the endoscope industry.
B. Parts of finding Substantial Equivalence
We compared our manufacturing drawings with corresponding devices from R.Wolf. We found substantial equivalence in all significant details.
C. Descriptive Information
We intend to manufacture our Cystoscopes under strict GMP Guidelines: From incoming material registration and testing to detailed manufacturing instructions and device master and history filing including complaint reporting.
D. Performance Testing
Our Prototypes underwent extensive mechanical and thermic stress testing to asure safe and long term use.
E. Adverse Health Effects
We are not able to determine any adverse health effects compared to the already marketed devices and can not imagine any possibility of this kind.

Dear Mr. Suro:
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, narket 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 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 requirements, as set forth in the Ouality System Regulation (OS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (2) 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.
This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your 510Ks premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.
If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801 and additionally 809.10 for in vitro diagnostic devices), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4613. Additionally, for questions on the promotion and advertising of your device, please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4639. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR 807.97). Other general information on your responsibilities under the Act may be obtained from the Division of Small Manufacturers Assistance at its toll-free number (800) 638-2041 or (301) 443-6597 or at its Internet address "http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/dsmaldsmamain.html".
