Intended Use
The EndoFLIP® system is an endoscopically placed device indicated for use in patients fitted with a gastric band. The device is intended to estimate the size of the stoma produced by the gastric band in a clinical setting. EndoFLIP® EF-620 catheter is indicated for use in measuring the size of a gastric sleeve created during bariatric surgery. It is suitable for diameter measurements for 22 to 60 French sleeves. 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. Note: EndoFLIP is a measurement system. It is not intended to perform a diagnostic test. The EF-325L has a locating LED used in conjunction with the shaft markings to locate the balloon midpoint.
Device Story
EndoFLIP® system uses balloon catheter inserted endoscopically to measure lumen diameter and pressure; catheter attached to syringe pre-filled with diluted saline; balloon inflated to user-programmed volume; system measures diameter at 8 or 16 points along balloon length; EF-325L model includes internal red LED for transillumination to assist surgeon in locating balloon midpoint; used in hospitals/surgery centers by physicians; output provides estimated diameter and pressure readings; assists in bariatric stoma/sleeve sizing and esophageal evaluation; device is measurement tool, not diagnostic test.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data provided. Substantial equivalence supported by bench testing, including accelerated aging/shelf-life testing and comparison of design/materials to predicate devices.
Technological Characteristics
System consists of measuring console and single-use/reusable balloon catheters. Materials in contact with patient are identical to predicates. Sensing via electrodes/pressure sensors; EF-325L includes low-voltage LED for transillumination. Diameter range 5-25mm or 7-20mm; resolution 0.1mm; accuracy ±1mm. Biocompatibility per ISO 10993-1.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients undergoing bariatric surgery (gastric band or sleeve) or patients with esophageal disorders/symptoms of esophageal sensory hypersensitivity. Contraindicated where endoscopy is contraindicated.
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.

#### Device Description:
The EndoFLIP® comprises a measuring system and a single use or reusable catheter to assist in measuring the lumen diameter at 16 points (EF family) or 8 points (BF family). The EndoFLIP® comprises a measuring system and catheter to assist in measuring lumens. In practice, the EndoFLIP® balloon catheter is attached to a syringe, pre-filled with a diluted saline solution, which is inserted into the syringe pump on the front of the EndoFLIP® system. The deflated balloon is inserted under direct laparoscopic visualization. Once the balloon has been correctly located, it is then inflated with the diluted saline solution to a user programmed volume.
#### Modifications of these devices vs. Predicates:
The following is a list of the changes to the EndoFLIP® catheters.
- (1) Addition of a model designated as EF-325L that has a locating LED (colored red) positioned inside the wire lumen at the balloon midpoint. It is used in conjunction with the shaft markings to locate the balloon midpoint.

| Environment of Use: | Hospitals and Surgery Centers |
| Contraindications: | The EndoFLIP® System is contraindicated where endoscopy is<br>contraindicated. |
#### Predicate Device Comparison:
Table 1 compares the Catheters, while Table 2 compares the EF-325L to the Predicate. One will note that the difference between EF-325 and BF-325 is that they are identical except in the number of electrodes and sensors.
The EF-325L is identical to the EF-325 other than the addition of a locating LED mounted on the shaft inside the balloon.
Note that the reference to "Nasal" is the tip design (deflective tip) and not to how the catheter is placed. All of these catheters are placed orally.
The catheters for use with the EndoFLIP® system are viewed as substantially equivalent to the predicate catheters because:
