Regulatory Classification

Identification

A bronchoscope (flexible or rigid) and accessories is a tubular endoscopic device with any of a group of accessory devices which attach to the bronchoscope and is intended to examine or treat the larynx and tracheobronchial tree. It is typically used with a fiberoptic light source and carrier to provide illumination. The device is made of materials such as stainless steel or flexible plastic. This generic type of device includes the rigid ventilating bronchoscope, rigid nonventilating bronchoscope, nonrigid bronchoscope, laryngeal-bronchial telescope, flexible foreign body claw, bronchoscope tubing, flexible biopsy forceps, rigid biopsy curette, flexible biopsy brush, rigid biopsy forceps, flexible biopsy curette, and rigid bronchoscope aspirating tube, but excludes the fiberoptic light source and carrier.

{1}

The subject device is constructed of the inflatable balloon, catheter, bifurcation, irrigation port, air feed cap, and stopcock. The B5 series balloon catheter is 5 French in diameter and designed to be used with minimum 2.0 mm channel endoscopes, while the B7 series balloon catheter is 7 French in diameter and should be used with minimum 2.8 mm channel size endoscopes. They are identified then by a color code. For example, B5 series have been identified with the blue color branch and B7 series catheters have the yellow color branch. The length of both catheters is 1050 mm.

## General Safety

In conclusion, when compared with the predicate biliary balloon (K904669), the subject Olympus B5-2C/B7-2C Balloon Catheter does not incorporate any significant change in the design, specifications, or method of operation that could affect the safety or efficacy of the subject devices.
