Intended Use

The EndoFLIP system is indicated for use in a clinical setting as a pressure and dimension measurement device and as an adjunct to other methods in the comprehensive evaluation of patients with symptoms consistent with esophageal sensory hypersensitivity.

Device Story

EndoFLIP Barostat Mode is a gastrointestinal motility monitoring system used in hospitals and physician offices. It utilizes a catheter-based balloon system with 16 electrodes to measure pressure and dimensions within the esophagus. The device functions by performing a programmed series of balloon inflations in steps of volume (0-50 ml range). Data is recorded, saved internally, and can be exported via USB or printed. The system is operated by clinicians to assist in the evaluation of esophageal sensory hypersensitivity. It does not perform diagnostic tests itself but provides objective measurements to support clinical decision-making. The Barostat mode adds software-controlled volume distention capabilities to the existing EndoFLIP platform, allowing for standardized pressure-volume assessments.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided. Bench testing only; no comparative bench testing was required as the modification is a software change only.

Technological Characteristics

Gastrointestinal motility monitoring system (FFX). Uses catheter-based balloon with 16 electrodes for pressure/dimension sensing. Software-controlled volume distention (0-50 ml range, 1 ml resolution). Connectivity via USB for data export. Electrical safety per IEC60601-1 2nd Ed. Materials identical to K092850 (ISO 10993-1 compliant).

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients with esophageal disorders to measure pressure and dimensions as an adjunct to comprehensive evaluation of esophageal sensory hypersensitivity. Contraindicated where endoscopy is contraindicated or in patients with increased risk of esophageal perforation or bleeding.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A gastrointestinal motility monitoring system is a device used to measure peristalic activity or pressure in the stomach or esophagus by means of a probe with transducers that is introduced through the mouth into the gastrointestinal tract. The device may include signal conditioning, amplifying, and recording equipment. This generic type of device includes the esophageal motility monitor and tube, the gastrointestinal motility (electrical) system, and certain accessories, such as a pressure transducer, amplifier, and external recorder.

In summary we have found that the following key elements support a determination of substantially equivalent: #### Indications - The proposed indications for use are nearly identical to the predicate, Barostat K991288. The EndoFLIP system is indicated for use in a clinical setting as a pressure and dimension measurement device and as an adjunct to other methods in the comprehensive evaluation of patients with symptoms consistent with esophageal sensory hypersensitivity vs. the predicate Distender Series II Dual Drive Barostat device which is used for volume/pressure measurement in the alimentary tract as an adjunct to other diagnostic methods as part of a comprehensive evaluation of patients with symptoms consistent with gastrointestinal motility disorders. Note: EndoFLIP is a measurement system. It is not intended to perform a diagnostic test. #### Environment of Use - The proposed environments of use are identical to the predicates. EndoFLIP® K092850 and Barostat (K991288), which are for Hospitals and Physician offices. #### Patient Population - The proposed patient population is patients with esophageal disorders whereas the predicate Barostat (K991288) lists patients with symptoms consistent with gastrointestinal motility disorders, which are equivalent. # Technology / Design / Features - The technology is identical to the predicate EndoFLIP® systems (K092850) and we have only added a new software feature which is the Barostat mode, which allows programmed volume distentions, each volume distention being identical in nature to the single volume distention permitted using the existing software. ### Materials - The materials are identical to the predicate EndoFLIP® K092850 and thus not applicable as the modification is software only. ## Performance Specifications - The proposed software modification does not change the performance specification of the EndoFLIP®, which remains identical to the predicate K092850. #### Performance Testing - Bench. No comparative bench testing was required as the change is a software change only. {4}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/4/Picture/1 description: The image shows the logo for the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services.
