Intended Use
The FlexiScope 50MH / 50MHC is indicated for use in conjunction with endoscopic devices to provide illumination and video visualization of optical images.
Device Story
FlexiScope 50MH/50MHC system consists of camera handpiece and combination light source/video processor. Device attaches to proximal eyepiece of user-supplied flexible or rigid endoscopes. Light source provides visible illumination for endoscopic examination. Camera CCD sensor captures optical images from endoscope objective lens, converts to electrical signal, and amplifies for output to external monitors or printers. Used in clinical settings by healthcare professionals. System facilitates visualization of internal anatomy during endoscopic procedures, aiding clinical decision-making through real-time video display.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Compliance with international standards for electrical safety and electromagnetic compatibility (IEC 60601-1-1, IEC 60601-1-2, and IEC 60601-2-18) was used to demonstrate safety and performance.
Technological Characteristics
System includes camera handpiece and combination light source/video processor. Utilizes CCD sensor for image capture. Energy source: visible light for illumination. Connectivity: output to external monitors/printers. Standards: IEC 60601-1-1, IEC 60601-1-2, IEC 60601-2-18.
Indications for Use
Indicated for use with endoscopic devices to provide illumination and video visualization of optical images in patients undergoing endoscopic procedures.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A surgical camera and accessories is a device intended to be used to record operative procedures.

## Indications for Use:
The FlexiScope 50MH / 50MHC is indicated for use in conjunction with endoscopic devices to provide illumination and video visualization of optical images.
### Product Description:
The Schoelly FlexiScope 50MH / 50MHC system is comprised of a camera handpiece and a combination light source / video processor; the system is intended for use with currently marketed endoscopes. The light source utilizes visible light to provide illumination of the area under endoscopic examination. The compact camera system component attaches to the proximal eyepiece of the user-supplied flexible or rigid endoscope. Images are optically captured via the endoscope. The image is transferred to the camera's CCD (charge coupled device) sensor through the scope objective lens, where it is converted to an electrical signal and amplified for output to accessories such as a monitor, printer, etc.
#### Safety and Performance:
Substantial equivalence for this device was based on a comparison of labeling, physical and performance design characteristics as compared to the predicate devices, as well as on the results of testing to establish compliance with international standards for electrical safety and electromagnetic compatibility (IEC 60601-1-1; IEC 60601-1-1; IEC 60601-1-2 & IEC 60601-2-18).
## Conclusion:
Based on the indications for use, technological characteristics, and comparison to predicate devices, the Schoelly FlexiScope 50MH / 50MHC has been shown to be safe and effective for its intended use.
