Intended Use
The ERBEFLO CleverCap Hybrid Tubing/Cap Sets provide sterile water and air from a single source to an endoscope for endoscopic procedures.
Device Story
The ERBEFLO CleverCap Hybrid Tubing/Cap Set is a sterile, disposable accessory for Olympus 160 and 180 series endoscopes. It consists of a cap that seals to a sterile water bottle and two tubing segments: an irrigation line and an air/water line. The cap connects to a water source; the irrigation tubing interfaces with an irrigation pump to deliver lavage fluid to the scope; the air/water tubing connects to the scope's air/water port to facilitate lens cleaning and air insufflation. The air/water tubing utilizes a tube-within-a-tube design where endoscope processor pressure drives water flow. The system includes backflow valves and clamps to manage flow. Used in clinical settings by medical professionals during endoscopic procedures, the device simplifies setup by consolidating water and air delivery from a single bottle. It provides improved flow rates and equivalent pressure performance compared to predicate systems, supporting effective visualization and irrigation during endoscopy.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Substantial equivalence is supported by bench testing, including biocompatibility studies, flow rate measurements, backflow pressure testing, internal pressure testing, and durability assessments.
Technological Characteristics
Disposable, sterile tubing/cap set. Materials include PVC and silicone. Features include backflow valves, locking clamps, and tubing weight inserts. Designed for 24-hour use. Sterilized via Ethylene Oxide. Connects to designated irrigation pumps and Olympus 160/180 series endoscopes. Mechanical operation; no software or electronic components.
Indications for Use
Indicated for use in endoscopic procedures requiring the delivery of sterile water and air to an endoscope from a single source. Intended for use with designated Olympus Model 160 and 180 series scopes.
Regulatory Classification
Identification

### Device Description:
The ERBEFLO CleverCap Hybrid Tubing/Cap Sets for Olympus® Model 160 and 180 Series Scopes consist of two (2) tubing segments and a cap. The cap of a Set attaches with an air-tight seal to a water source (i.e., a sterile water bottle). Then from the water bottle, irrigation tubing of a Set interfaces with a designated pump and via ERBEFLO 2 connector accessories to a specified Olympus Scope for endoscopic lavage. The other segment, the air/water tubing, also coming from the same water bottle; connects to an air/water port of a specified Olympus® Scope for air intubation as well as lens cleaning (Note: The air/water tubing is a tube within a tube in which the endoscope's air/water processor pressures the bottle for water flow.). Both the irrigation as well as the air/water tubing segments have a backflow valve and a clamp to pinch off the tubing while not in use. Each Set is designed for use with designated irrigation pumps and have a air/water connector for specified Olympus® Scopes. The Hybrid Tubing/Cap Sets for Olympus® Model 160 and 180 Series Scopes are provided sterile and are disposable.

### Intended Use:
The ERBEFLO CleverCap Hybrid Tubing/Cap Sets provide sterile water and air from a single source to an endoscope for endoscopic procedures.
## Similarities and Differences of the Proposed Device to the Current Devices (Predicate Comparison/Substantial Equivalence):
Similarities
The ERBEFLO CleverCap Hybrid Tubing/Cap Sets for Olympus® Model 160 and 180 Series Scopes have the same basic intended use of both of the predicates combined. The proposed Sets have the same thread connections, cap, tubing segments, and back flow valve placement. The tubing of the Hybrid Sets also has comparable Durometer, Inner Diameters (I.D.s), and Outer Diameters (O.D.s) as the predicate devices. The proposed and predicate devices also both have the same locking clamp and tubing weight insert. The length of the air/water segment is the same with the Hybrid Sets as compared to the Endo SmartCap. The Hybrid Tubing/Cap Sets for Olympus® Model 160 and 180 Series Scopes have the same duration of use as the EndoGator System as well as Endo SmartCap (24 hour use). The proposed Sets and predicate devices use the same types of water bottles. pumps, endoscope connection accessories, and endoscope. Finally, the proposed and predicate devices are sterilized via Ethylene Oxide and disposable. Differences
The predicate devices (i.e., the EndoGator System and Endo SmartCap) can also be used with additional pumps and endoscopes as well as have capability of using CO2 instead of air for intubation. To address these differences, the ERBEFLO CleverCap Hybrid Tubing/Cap Sets for Olympus® Model 160 and 180 Series Scopes Notes On Use specifies designated pumps and Olympus® Scopes for use as well as only has instructions for use with the air/water processor of the Scopes. The types of materials used for the ERBEFLO CleverCap Hybrid Tubing/Cap Sets for Olympus® Model 160 and 180 Series Scopes are similar to the predicates (EndoGator System and Endo SmartCap) but specific materials are slightly different. Therefore. biocompatibility of the specific materials for the ERBEFLO CleverCap Hybrid Tubing/Cap Sets for Olympus® Model 160 and 180 Series Scopes was evaluated. See Section III, Product Data - Biocompatibility Study. The predicates are two separate products used to do the same function of the proposed device. The Hybrid Sets also use only one water source as compared to the predicates each having a respective water source. Additionally, the irrigation tubing of the ERBEFLO CleverCap Hybrid Tubing/Cap Sets for Olympus® Model 160 and 180 Series Scopes is a longer single PVC piece as compared to EndoGator Tubing being a shorter 3segment piece with a silicone portion interfacing with a pump head (Note: The segment of the proposed device also has a clamp and the predicate Tubing does not.). Also, the air/water tubing of the ERBEFLO CleverCap Hybrid Tubing/Cap Sets for Olympus® Model 160 and 180 Series Scopes has a back flow valve as compared

to the predicate Endo SmartCap that does not have a valve. Nonetheless with the differences in the physical and dimensional aspects of the proposed Sets as compared to the combined predicate devices; performance testing demonstrated improved flow rates as well as equivalent back flow pressure, internal pressure, and durability. See Section III, Product Data - Performance Testing.
#### Conclusion:
The ERBEFLO CleverCap Hybrid Tubing/Cap Sets for Olympus® Model 160 and 180 Series Scopes intended use is a part of both of the predicate's indications in the previously cleared 510(k)s. The proposed Hybrid Tubing/Cap Sets for Olympus® Model 160 and 180 Series Scopes have the same principles of operation and technological characteristics as the predicate devices combined. The duration of use for the proposed and predicates is the same. As compared to the predicates, the proposed Sets are constructed with the same type of materials as well as have enhanced flow rates as well as comparable back flow pressure, internal pressure, and durability characteristics. In conclusion, all the differences were verified or validated. As a result, the ERBEFLO CleverCap Hybrid Tubing/Cap Sets for Olympus® Model 160 and 180 Series Scopes did not adversely affect safety or effectiveness.
