## Intended Use

This instrument has been designed to be used with an Olympus video system center, light source, documentation equipment, display monitor, endo-therapy accessories, and other ancillary equipment for endoscopic diagnosis and treatment within the nasal and nasopharyngeal lumens.

## Device Story

The Olympus ENF-V is a flexible nasopharyngoscope used for visualization and treatment of nasal and nasopharyngeal lumens. It captures visual data via a distal CCD sensor, replacing the traditional image guide used in the predicate device. The device connects to an Olympus video system center, light source, and display monitor, allowing the clinician to view real-time images on a monitor. The improved optical system provides higher resolution and a wider field of view compared to the predicate. It is operated by a physician or trained clinician in a clinical setting. The output assists in the diagnosis and treatment of nasal/nasopharyngeal conditions.

## Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Comparison of technical specifications (field of view, resolution, dimensions) provided to demonstrate equivalence to the predicate device.

## Technological Characteristics

Flexible nasopharyngoscope featuring a CCD optical system. Key specs: 90° field of view, 5-50 mm depth of field, 3.9 mm insertion tube diameter, 365 mm working length. Operates with external video system center, light source, and monitor. Reprocessing methods are identical to the predicate.

## Regulatory Identification

A nasopharyngoscope (flexible or rigid) and accessories is a tubular endoscopic device with any of a group of accessory devices which attach to the nasopharyngoscope and is intended to examine or treat the nasal cavity and nasal pharynx. It is typically used with a fiberoptic light source and carrier to provide illumination. The device is made of materials such as stainless steel and flexible plastic. This generic type of device includes the antroscope, nasopharyngolaryngoscope, nasosinuscope, nasoscope, postrhinoscope, rhinoscope, salpingoscope, flexible foreign body claw, flexible biopsy forceps, rigid biopsy curette, flexible biospy brush, rigid biopsy forceps and flexible biopsy curette, but excludes the fiberoptic light source and carrier.

## Predicate Devices

- XENF-TP ([K013591](/device/K013591.md))
