Intended Use
The ERBEFLO® 2 Disposable Tubing System is intended to provide sterile water from a water source through an irrigation pump and an endoscope (or to an endoscope) for endoscopic procedures.
Device Story
The ERBEFLO® 2 Endo QuickConnect Scope Port Connectors are single-use accessories for the ERBEFLO® 2 Disposable Tubing System. They function as conduits connecting an irrigation line to a gastrointestinal video endoscope (Olympus or Pentax). The device features a female luer lock, a backflow valve, and a scope-specific connector. During endoscopic procedures, the connector facilitates the flow of sterile water from an irrigation pump through the endoscope to the site. The device is operated by clinical staff in a clinical setting. The primary benefit is providing a sterile, disposable interface for irrigation, ensuring proper flow without leaks. The device is provided sterile and is disposable.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Performance feasibility testing demonstrated flow performance comparable to the predicate with no leaks and equivalent backflow pressure resistance. Biocompatibility evaluation confirmed material safety. Sterilization validation (including 2X sterilization functional testing) confirmed product sterility and acceptable ethylene oxide residual levels. Packaging integrity was also verified.
Technological Characteristics
Medical grade plastics; female luer lock connection; backflow valve; scope-specific push-on connectors. Sterilized via Ethylene Oxide. Disposable. No electronics or software.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients undergoing endoscopic procedures requiring irrigation via an endoscope.

### Device Description:
The Endo QuickConnect Scope Port Connectors will be manufactured with medical grade materials or agents used in the medical device industry such as plastics, solvent, etc. The devices respectively adjoin an irrigation line of an ERBEFLO tubing/cap set to a designated gastrointestinal video endoscope. This line is a conduit for water to irrigate in endoscopic procedures. Each Port Connector has a standard female luer lock connection that attaches to an ERBEFLO tubing/cap set, backflow valve, and a scope specific connector (for an Olympus® or Pentax® Scope). The Port Connectors are provided sterile and are disposable.
### Intended Use:
The ERBEFLO 2 Disposable Tubing System is intended to provide sterile water from a water source through an irrigation pump and an endoscope (or to an endoscope) for endoscopic procedures.
Note: The Endo QuickConnect Scope Port Connectors are additional accessories/single use connectors for the ERBEFLO® 2 Disposable Tubing System.
{4}------------------------------------------------
Similarities and Differences of the Proposed Device to the Current Device (Predicate Comparison/Substantial Equivalence):
### Similarities
The Endo QuickConnect Scope Port Connectors will be a part of the ERBEFLO 2 Disposable Tubing System (i.e., they have the same intended use). The proposed Connectors have the same female connection and backflow valve as the predicate Connectors. Also, the same solvent for bonding is used for the proposed and predicate devices. The proposed and the predicate will be packaged in the same pouch, box, and carton and labeled in the same manner. Finally, the proposed and predicate devices are sterilized via Ethylene Oxide and are disposable.
## Differences
The Endo QuickConnect Scope Port Connectors as compared to our current standard Connector's (predicate devices) hub is a softer/more pliable plastic with no o-ring or metal. The material for the hub of the Endo QuickConnect Scope Port Connectors is the same material used for hubs of other ERBEFLO products and has shown to be biocompatible and very durable. The proposed Connectors are slightly lighter and wider but shorter as compared to the predicate Connectors. No issues were found with the slight profile difference with either Connector. Finally, the scope connection of the proposed and predicate devices is slightly different. The proposed Olympus QuickConnector attaches to the Olympus Scope by pushing onto the port of the Scope as compared to our current Connector being screwed on. For the Pentax QuickConnector it is also pushed on like the current Connector but requires the removal of the Scope's port gasket. To ensure proper connection, these attachment differences are clearly defined in the Notes On Use and associated QuickStart Guides. Upon following proper connecting instructions, there were no flow issues (including no leaks). None of these differences impacted the safety or efficacy of the Endo QuickConnect Scope Port Connectors.
# Evaluations and Testing:
The following evaluations and tests were performed on the Endo QuickConnect Scope Port Connectors to demonstrate safety and efficacy.
### Biological Evaluation
The evaluation was performed per the current recognized standard and demonstrated that there were no biocompatibility issues with the materials used for the proposed products.
### Performance Feasibility Testing
The feasibility testing showed that the flow performance of the proposed products was comparable to the predicate devices with no leaks. Additionally, the Endo QuickConnect Scope Port Connectors withstood the same backflow pressure as the current Connectors.
### 2X Sterilization Functional Testing
The testing demonstrated that the proposed products upon 2X sterilization met established performance specifications.

### ERBE USA Incorporated Special 510(k) for ERBEFLO® 2 Endo QuickConnect Scope Port Connectors
### Packaging Evaluation
The evaluation demonstrated the adequacy and integrity of the packaging for the proposed products.
Sterilization Evaluation
The evaluation was performed using current recognized standards and demonstrated product sterility as well as meeting acceptable ethylene oxide residual levels prior to distribution.
### Conclusion:
The intended use is the same for the Endo QuickConnect Scope Port Connectors as the current Connectors. The proposed devices have the same principles of operation and technological characteristics as the predicate devices. As compared to the predicates, the proposed Connectors are constructed with the same type of materials as well as have the same performance characteristics. In conclusion, the ERBEFLO 2 Endo QuickConnect Scope Port Connectors did not adversely affect safety or effectiveness.
