The Cervix Coil Latex Sheath allows use of the coil in MR scanning procedures for endocavitary exams of the cervix while helping to prevent transfer of microorganisms, body fluids, and particulate material to the patient and healthcare worker during reuse of the coil. The latex coil cover is furnished as a non-sterile, single use (patient/procedure), disposable device.

Device Description

The Cervix Coil Latex Sheath has been specifically designed to fit over the Picker Hammersmith Endocavitary Cervix Coil. The sheath has an extension on the closed end that can be depressed into the center of the coil. This allows placement of the cervix within the MR coil ring without interference from the sheath. This disposable sheath prevents transfer of microorganisms, body fluids, and particulate material during reuse of the coil.

AI/ML Overview

Here's a breakdown of the acceptance criteria and study information for the Cervix Coil Latex Sheath, based on the provided document:

The device, a "Cervix Coil Latex Sheath," is a Class II device intended to allow the use of an MRI coil in endocavitary exams of the cervix while preventing the transfer of microorganisms, body fluids, and particulate material. It's a non-sterile, single-use, disposable device. The submission focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device, the CIVCO Latex Ultrasound Transducer Covers (K970515), rather than providing detailed acceptance criteria and a study to meet those criteria in a typical performance study format. The "study" here is essentially the comparison and justification of equivalence to the predicate device.

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance:

Since this is a substantial equivalence submission, the "acceptance criteria" are implied by the characteristics of the predicate device, and the "reported device performance" is the claim that the Cervix Coil Latex Sheath shares these characteristics.
