More Information

No
The 510(k) summary describes a purely mechanical and optical endoscopic system with manual surgical instruments and does not mention any AI or ML components or capabilities.

Yes
The device is intended for aiding in the search and removal of vertebral bone and nucleus material, which is a therapeutic intervention.

No

The device is intended for visualizing tissue and aiding in the search and removal of material, which are surgical and therapeutic functions, not diagnostic.

No

The device description lists multiple hardware components including instruments, a telescope, and adaptors, indicating it is a physical medical device system, not software-only.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device is for visualizing and aiding in the search and removal of tissue within the body (lumbar disc, herniated disc material, etc.). IVDs are used to examine specimens outside the body (in vitro) to provide information about a patient's health.
  • Device Description: The components listed are surgical instruments and visualization tools used during a surgical procedure, not for analyzing biological samples.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing blood, urine, tissue samples, or any other biological material in a laboratory setting.

This device is a surgical endoscope system used for a minimally invasive surgical procedure.

Dear Mr. Veale:

This letter corrects our substantially equivalent letter of October 22, 1998 regarding the regulatory classification of your device, which is changed from HRZ to HRX. This device is regulated under 21 CFR 888.1100, Arthroscope and 21 CFR 876.1500, endoscope.

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.
