Intended Use
The Given® AGILE Patency System is an accessory to the PillCam video capsule and is intended to verify adequate patency of the gastrointestinal tract prior to administration of the PillCam video capsule in patients with known or suspected strictures.
Device Story
AGILE Patency System serves as accessory to PillCam video capsule; verifies GI tract patency in patients with known/suspected strictures. System components: AGILE Patency capsule, AGILE Patency Scanner, TesTag. Patient ingests capsule; peristalsis moves it through GI tract. Scanner detects capsule presence in body. If capsule excreted whole or not detected by scanner within 30 hours post-ingestion, GI tract patency is indicated, allowing PillCam administration. If scanner detects capsule at 30 hours, patency not indicated. Capsule designed to dissolve 30-42 hours post-ingestion. Fluoroscopy may be used for localization if scanner unavailable. Benefits patient by preventing PillCam retention in strictured GI tracts.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data provided; device relies on bench testing and design verification to demonstrate substantial equivalence.
Technological Characteristics
System includes ingestible capsule, handheld scanner, and interference tester (TesTag). Capsule is designed to dissolve 30-42 hours post-ingestion. Scanner detects capsule presence via telemetric signal. Standalone operation.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients with known or suspected gastrointestinal strictures to verify GI tract patency prior to administration of the PillCam video capsule.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
An ingestible telemetric gastrointestinal capsule imaging system is used for visualization of the small bowel mucosa as an adjunctive tool in the detection of abnormalities of the small bowel. The device captures images of the small bowel with a wireless camera contained in a capsule. This device includes an ingestible capsule (containing a light source, camera, transmitter, and battery), an antenna array, a receiving/recording unit, a data storage device, computer software to process the images, and accessories.
Special Controls
*Classification.* Class II (special controls). The special control is FDA's guidance, “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Ingestible Telemetric Gastrointestinal Capsule Imaging Systems; Final Guidance for Industry and FDA.”

#### Trade Name:
Given® AGILE Patency System (an optional accessory to the Given® Diagnostic System with PillCam Capsules)
### Classification Name:
Ingestible Telemetric Gastrointestinal Capsule Imaging System
#### Classification:
FDA has classified Ingestible Telemetric Gastrointestinal Capsule Imaging System as class II devices (product code 78NZE and 78NSI) and they are reviewed by the Gastroenterology Panel.
#### Predicate Device:
The Given AGILE Patency System is an accessory for the Given® Diagnostic System with PillCam™ Capsules (Given Imaging Ltd.) cleared under K010312, K020341, K022362, K022980, K031033, K032405, K040248, K041149, K042960, and K052184.

### Intended Use:
The Given® AGILE Patency System is an accessory to the PillCam video capsule and is intended to verify adequate patency of the gastrointestinal tract prior to administration of the PillCam video capsule in patients with known or suspected strictures.
#### Device Description:
The Given® AGILE Patency System is a simple and easy to use device for verifying the patency of the GI tract. It consists of the following components:
- · Given AGILE Patency capsule
- · Given AGILE Patency Scanner
- · TesTag (interference tester)
Once the patient ingests the Given AGILE Patency capsule it is propelled through the GI tract by normal peristalsis. If the AGILE Patency capsule is excreted structurally whole, then this indicates patency of the GI tract of the patient and a PillCam capsule can be administered. The capsule is designed to dissolve starting 30 hours following ingestion, during a period of approximately 12 hours. If anytime before 30 hours after capsule ingestion the AGILE Patency capsule cannot be detected in the patient's body by the Given AGILE Patency Scanner, it indicates that the GI tract is patent and that the capsule was excreted naturally.
The Given AGILE Patency Scanner is used to detect the presence of the Given AGILE Patency capsule in the patient's body. If a scanner is not available, or if localization of a retained capsule is desired, fluoroscopy can be used.
If the Given AGILE Patency Scanner detects the Given AGILE Patency capsule in the GI tract 30 hours post-ingestion, then patency of the GI tract is not indicated. Eventually, the capsule dissolves into small fragments and is naturally excreted.
## Substantial Equivalence:
Given Imaging Ltd. believes that, based on the information provided in the submission, the Given® AGILE Patency System is substantially equivalent to its predicate devices without raising any new safety and/or efficacy issue.

Dear Ms. Friedman:
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. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898.
