A rigid endoscope consists of a fiber optic cable and sensitive image transmission system with eyepiece. The fiber optic cable is used to illuminate the site inside the body. The connector for connecting the light guide to the light source is situated at the proximal end of the endoscope. The adapters required to connect the light guide are included in the scope of delivery. The distal end of the endoscope features an objective lens that captures the image from inside the body. The image is sent through the image transmission system to the eyepiece. | | | | Intended Use/Indications for Use | | 21 CFR 807.92(a)(5) | | Strauss Surgical Cystoscopes are intended to illuminate and visualize the male urethra, prostate, and bladder for the purpose of performing diagnostic and surgical procedures. Strauss Surgical Hysteroscopes are intended to illuminate and visualize the cervical canal and uterine cavity for the purpose of performing diagnostic and surgical procedures. | | | | Indications for Use Comparison | | 21 CFR 807.92(a)(5) | | The subject device's indications for use is equivalent to indications for use as the predicate device. | | | | Technological Comparison | | 21 CFR 807.92(a)(6) | | The subject and predicate devices have identical technological characteristics. Below is the summary of the technological characteristics: Light that is created by an external light source is transmitted from the endoscope's light guide connector through the endoscope itself to the tip via a fiber optic system. Images are transferred the other way back through a rigid lens system. Technical parameters of the Strauss Cystoscopes/Hysteroscopes that characterize the optical view are the Direction of View (0°-70°) and the Field of View (63°-85°). The image can be displayed by a camera/monitor system which can be connected to the endoscope eyepiece. Models of the Strauss Cystoscopes/Hysteroscopes have the same diameter and length of the insertion tube that is (2.9mm; 4mm/302mm). Similar to the predicate device, none of the endoscope models have a working channel. Like other currently marketed rigid cystoscopes and hysteroscopes, all endoscope models have outer surfaces mainly made from metal (Phynox cobalt-nickel-chromium stainless steel alloy, 304 stainless steel) and incorporate fiber optics for light transmission and rigid lenses for image transmission. The subject device requires same reprocessing methods as used for the predicate device. The reprocessing methods includes cleaning(manual and automated), high level disinfection and sterilization (steam). The subject device same manufacturer, same manufacturing facility, same materials, material grades, same component suppliers, same manufacturing process and same tissue contact type and duration as the predicate device. | | | | Non-Clinical and/or Clinical Tests Summary & Conclusions | | 21 CFR 807.92(b) | | The subject and predicate devices have identical technological characteristics.
