The device description and performance studies indicate a manually operated, single-use device with no mention of AI/ML terms or functionalities.
No.
The device is intended for sampling and biopsy, which are diagnostic procedures, not therapeutic.
Yes
The device is used for "histologic biopsy," which is a diagnostic procedure to examine tissue for disease.
No
The device description explicitly states it is a manual curette that operates by applied vacuum suction and is a sterile single-use disposable device, 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 "For endometrial sampling for histologic biopsy of the uterine mucosal lining". This describes a procedure to collect a sample from the body.
- Device Description: The device is a manual curette that operates by vacuum suction to collect tissue. This is a tool for sample collection, not for testing the sample in vitro.
- Lack of In Vitro Testing: There is no mention of the device being used to perform tests on the collected sample outside of the body. IVD devices are specifically designed to analyze samples like blood, urine, tissue, etc., in vitro (in a test tube or other artificial environment) to provide diagnostic information.
This device is a medical device used for a sampling procedure, which is a step that might precede an in vitro diagnostic test (like a histological examination of the collected tissue), but the device itself is not the IVD.

Summary of Performance Studies
A clinical sampling study was conducted to evaluate Endocic's design for safe and effective collection of endometrial tissue samples by aspiration. Results showed sufficient amount and grade of tissue collection. No perforations occurred and no adverse events were reported. Safety tests were conducted and passed in accordance with the relevant sections of ISO 10993.

Dear Ms. Riemer:
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 legally marketed predicate 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.
