Intended Use
The EC 2.7 Endoscopic Cutter is intended to be inserted through the working channel of a flexible bronchoscope having an instrument channel diameter of 2.8 mm minimum, a working length of 600 mm, activated by a foot-switch connected to a qualified electrosurgical generator, and utilized in electrosurgical procedures involving removal/cutting of soft tissues (excision, incision, vaporization, ablation) while also providing electrosurgical coagulation and hemostasis.
Device Story
Disposable, single-patient-use monopolar RF surgical endotherapy device; inserted through working channel of flexible bronchoscope. Comprised of cutting/coagulation electrode on flexible multi-lumen shaft; includes electrical adaptor for connection to qualified electrosurgical generator (e.g., ValleyLab Force FX). Operated by physician via generator foot-switch. Device delivers RF energy to soft tissue for excision, incision, vaporization, ablation, and hemostasis. Used in clinical settings for upper airway and tracheobronchial tree procedures. Output allows physician to remove obstructions and control bleeding during bronchoscopy, potentially improving patient airway patency.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data was necessary. Substantial equivalence supported by bench testing, human cadaveric studies, and in vivo animal data collection.
Technological Characteristics
Monopolar RF electrosurgical instrument; polymeric flexible multi-lumen shaft; 750 mm active length; 2.68 mm max diameter. Sterilized via ETO. Compliant with ISO 11135-1, ISO 11607, ISO 10993 (biocompatibility), ANSI/AAMI ES 60601-1, IEC 60601-2-2, and IEC 60601-2-18.
Indications for Use
Indicated for cutting soft tissue obstructions in upper airways and tracheobronchial tree and providing electrosurgical hemostasis in patients undergoing bronchoscopic procedures.
Regulatory Classification

Indications for Use:
Non-clinical Performance Data: The Endoscopic Cutter System is intended to be energized for use by the foot-switch accessory supplied with the electrosurgical generator. The EC 2.7 has an active length of approximately 750 mm and a maximum diameter crossing profile of 2.68 mm. It is sized such that may be delivered through the working channel of a flexible bronchoscope 2.8 mm diameter working channel and working length of 600 mm.
The EC 2.7 Endoscopic Cutter is intended to be inserted through the working channel of a flexible bronchoscope having an instrument channel diameter of 2.8 mm minimum, a working length of 600 mm, activated by a foot-switch connected to a qualified electrosurgical generator, and utilized in electrosurgical procedures involving removal/cutting of soft tissues (excision, incision, vaporization, ablation) while also providing electrosurgical coagulation and hemostasis.
The EC 2.7 Endoscopic Cutter is a single use electrosurgical instrument designed to be used with flexible bronchoscopes and qualified electrosurgical units. It is indicated for cutting of soft tissue obstructions in upper airways and tracheobronchial tree, and provision of electrosurgical hemostasis during such procedures.
Performance testing per standardized methods and internal test protocols, including bench testing, human cadaveric studies and in vivo animal data collection, was conducted and provides support that the EC 2.7 Endoscopic Cutter is substantially equivalent to currently marketed predicate devices. Additional comparative performance testing was conducted inconsideration of other devices with similar intended indications and intended use.
Non-clinical performance test protocols and reports of results are identified in Sections 14 through 19 of this 510(k) submission.
Test protocols and reports of results demonstrate that, in consideration of its intended and indications for use, the performance, design, labeling, packaging and sterilization of the EC 2.7 Endoscopic Cutter is compliant with the following standards:
