The summary describes standard rigid endoscopes and does not mention any AI/ML capabilities, image processing, or performance studies related to algorithmic analysis.
No.
The indication for use states "For examination, diagnosis, and / or therapy". While therapy is mentioned, the device itself, an endoscope, is primarily used for visualization. It serves as an accessory in connection with endoscopically used accessories for therapy, rather than being a therapeutic device itself.
Yes
The device's "Intended Use / Indications for Use" explicitly states that the endoscopes are used "For examination, diagnosis, and / or therapy". The inclusion of "diagnosis" indicates its function as a diagnostic device.
No
The device description explicitly states "Rigid Endoscopes, 10mm diameter, Models 8934.431, 0°, 8934.432, 30°, and 8934.433, 50°", which are physical hardware components.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to visualize the inside of the patient for examination, diagnosis, and therapy. This is a direct interaction with the patient's body, not the examination of samples taken from the body.
- Device Description: The device is a rigid endoscope, which is a tool used for direct visualization within the body.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any analysis of biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) or the use of reagents, which are hallmarks of IVD devices.
IVD devices are specifically designed to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic purposes. This endoscope is a medical device used for direct visualization and intervention within the body.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The endoscopes serve to visualize the inside of the patient via natural or surgically generated access.
For examination, diagnosis, and / or therapy by personnel trained and qualified in connection with endoscopically used accessories in various medical disciplines, such as surgery, urology, gynecology, and ENT.

§ 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.

Dear Mr. Casarsa,
This letter corrects our substantially equivalent letter of December 10, 1999.
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and 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) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act.
