Intended Use

The Dispos-A-Scope is intended for physician use enabling visual examination and certain treatment procedures involving the anal-rectal anatomy. The Dispos-A-Scope has 11cm speculum length enabling visualization of the ano-rectal canal. The Dispos-A-Scope is constructed totally of a quasi-transparent resin. The resin has passed USP Class VI testing. The scope is designed for one time use and then disposal eliminating the risk of cross infection and nullifying the need for sterilization of the instrument. The Dispos-A-Scope is non-powered. It does not conduct electricity and is non-thermogenic. The Dispos-A-Scope resin is quasi-compliant to external forces and will not crack or craze during normal usage. The Dispos-A-Scope has an operative port enabling precise isolation of tissue and pathology. The Dispos-A-Scope has a replaceable obturator facilitating device insertion and rotation for precise operative port placement during examination and treatment procedures. The Dispos-A-Scope has an ergonomic handle facilitating accurate physician manipulation.

Device Story

Dispos-A-Scope is a single-use, non-powered, non-conductive, non-thermogenic anal-rectal speculum. Device consists of a quasi-transparent resin body, ergonomic handle, operative port for tissue/pathology isolation, and replaceable obturator for insertion/rotation. Used by physicians in clinical settings for visual examination and treatment procedures of the ano-rectal canal. Single-use design eliminates cross-infection risk and sterilization requirements. Physician manipulates device manually to visualize anatomy and perform procedures through the operative port.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data. Bench testing only; resin material passed USP Class VI testing.

Technological Characteristics

Constructed of quasi-transparent resin (USP Class VI compliant). Non-powered, non-conductive, non-thermogenic. 11cm length. Features include ergonomic handle, operative port, and replaceable obturator. Single-use, disposable.

Indications for Use

Indicated for physician use for visual examination and treatment procedures of the anal-rectal anatomy and ano-rectal canal.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

An endoscope and accessories is a device used to provide access, illumination, and allow observation or manipulation of body cavities, hollow organs, and canals. The device consists of various rigid or flexible instruments that are inserted into body spaces and may include an optical system for conveying an image to the user's eye and their accessories may assist in gaining access or increase the versatility and augment the capabilities of the devices. Examples of devices that are within this generic type of device include cleaning accessories for endoscopes, photographic accessories for endoscopes, nonpowered anoscopes, binolcular attachments for endoscopes, pocket battery boxes, flexible or rigid choledochoscopes, colonoscopes, diagnostic cystoscopes, cystourethroscopes, enteroscopes, esophagogastroduodenoscopes, rigid esophagoscopes, fiberoptic illuminators for endoscopes, incandescent endoscope lamps, biliary pancreatoscopes, proctoscopes, resectoscopes, nephroscopes, sigmoidoscopes, ureteroscopes, urethroscopes, endomagnetic retrievers, cytology brushes for endoscopes, and lubricating jelly for transurethral surgical instruments. This section does not apply to endoscopes that have specialized uses in other medical specialty areas and that are covered by classification regulations in other parts of the device classification regulations.

Special Controls

*Classification* —(1)*Class II (special controls).* The device, when it is an endoscope disinfectant basin, which consists solely of a container that holds disinfectant and endoscopes and accessories; an endoscopic magnetic retriever intended for single use; sterile scissors for cystoscope intended for single use; a disposable, non-powered endoscopic grasping/cutting instrument intended for single use; a diagnostic incandescent light source; a fiberoptic photographic light source; a routine fiberoptic light source; an endoscopic sponge carrier; a xenon arc endoscope light source; an endoscope transformer; an LED light source; or a gastroenterology-urology endoscopic guidewire, is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 876.9.(2) Class I for the photographic accessories for endoscope, miscellaneous bulb adapter for endoscope, binocular attachment for endoscope, eyepiece attachment for prescription lens, teaching attachment, inflation bulb, measuring device for panendoscope, photographic equipment for physiologic function monitor, special lens instrument for endoscope, smoke removal tube, rechargeable battery box, pocket battery box, bite block for endoscope, and cleaning brush for endoscope. The devices subject to this paragraph (b)(2) are exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807of this chapter, subject to the limitations in § 876.9.
