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.

Honeywell Phone: (800) 285-5959 ## Predicate Device: Olympus America, Inc. endoscope nozzles and set screws ## Device Description: These endoscope nozzle replacement kits are intended for use in replacing the nozzle on 43 models of Olympus America, Inc. gastroscopes and colonoscopes. Each kit includes 6 nozzles, three set screws, sealant, and the necessary tools (#1 screw driver, tweezers, and magnifying glass) to replace the nozzle. Each kit will include only the nozzle size(s) and set screw size(s) appropriate for use with the Olympus of America, Inc. endoscope models currently being used by the purchaser. ## Substantial Equivalence: The nozzles, set screws, and sealant are the only kit components that are incorporated into the endoscope and come in contact with the patient. The premarket notification contains information and documentation that these components are substantially equivalent to those used by the original manufacturer in that they are for the same intended use and have the same technological characteristics. The remaining kit components (i.e., tools) are general purpose articles not regulated by FDA as medical devices. They are provided both as a convenience and as an assurance that the proper tools are used to replace the nozzle. The applicant has extensive experience in the servicing and repair of endoscopes. This experience has demonstrated that nozzle replacement is easily performed and that proper nozzle alignment can readily be confirmed without the need for additional equipment.
