The Olympus EVIS BF Type 200 Series video bronchoscopes have been designed for endoscopic diagnosis and treatment within the airways, including the tracheobronchial tree.

## Device Story

Video bronchoscopes (BF-200, BF-P200, BF-1T200) used with EVIS 200 video system center; input: optical images of tracheobronchial tree; output: real-time video feed for clinician visualization; used in clinical settings by physicians for airway diagnosis and treatment; modified version of predicate K931154 featuring updated insertion tube outer coating material; all other design, optical, mechanical, and electrical characteristics remain identical to predicate.

## Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only; no clinical data provided.

## Technological Characteristics

Video bronchoscopes; optical imaging system; insertion tube with modified outer coating material; compatible with EVIS 200 video system center; electrical and thermal characteristics identical to predicate.

## Regulatory Identification

A bronchoscope (flexible or rigid) and accessories is a tubular endoscopic device with any of a group of accessory devices which attach to the bronchoscope and is intended to examine or treat the larynx and tracheobronchial tree. It is typically used with a fiberoptic light source and carrier to provide illumination. The device is made of materials such as stainless steel or flexible plastic. This generic type of device includes the rigid ventilating bronchoscope, rigid nonventilating bronchoscope, nonrigid bronchoscope, laryngeal-bronchial telescope, flexible foreign body claw, bronchoscope tubing, flexible biopsy forceps, rigid biopsy curette, flexible biopsy brush, rigid biopsy forceps, flexible biopsy curette, and rigid bronchoscope aspirating tube, but excludes the fiberoptic light source and carrier.

## Statement of Intended Use

The Olympus EVIS BF Type 200 Series video bronchoscopes have been designed for endoscopic diagnosis and treatment within the airways, including the tracheobronchial tree.

## Device Description

Olympus intends to offer three modified BF-200, BF-P200, and BF-1T200 models of video bronchoscopes to be used in conjunction with the EVIS 200 video system center. These video bronchoscopes are identical to the legally marketed video bronchoscopes, which were cleared for marketing through 510(k) # K931154, except for the insertion tube’s outer coating material.

All characteristics such as design, construction, optical characteristics, mechanical specifications, electrical and thermal characteristics, intended use, method of use, and application sites remains unchanged.
