The aScope 3 endoscopes have been designed to be used with the aView monitor, endotherapy accessories and other ancillary equipment for endoscopy with the airways and tracheobronchial tree. The aScope 3 system is for use in a hospital environment. The aScope 3 is a single-use device designed for use in adults. It has been clinically evaluated for the following minimum endotracheal tubes (ETT) and double lumen tubes (DLT) sizes: [Table data: aScope 3 Slim 3.8/1.2: 5.0 mm ETT, 37 Fr DLT; aScope 3 Regular 5.0/2.2: 6.0 mm ETT, 41 Fr DLT; aScope 3 Large 5.8/2.8: 7.0 mm ETT]. Endoscopic accessories designed for a minimum working channel width up to 1.2 mm can be used with the aScope 3 Slim 3.8/1.2. Endoscopic accessories designed for a minimum working channel width up to 2.0 mm can be used with the aScope 3 Regular 5.0/2.2. Endoscopic accessories designed for a minimum working channel width up to 2.6 mm can be used with the aScope 3 Large 5.8/2.8.
Device Story
System comprises sterile, single-use flexible bronchoscopes (aScope 3 Slim, Regular, Large) and reusable aView monitor. Bronchoscopes feature maneuverable distal tip, LED light source, camera, and working channel for endotherapy accessories. Used in hospital settings by clinicians for airway/tracheobronchial tree visualization. Monitor displays real-time video from endoscope; supports snapshot/video recording and external monitor connection. Provides visual guidance for procedures; assists in airway management and diagnostic/therapeutic interventions. Single-use design eliminates reprocessing requirements.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Bench testing only, including ISO 8600-1, 8600-3, 8600-4, and 594-1 compliance, bending angle/endurance, aging, sterile packaging integrity, and electrical safety/compatibility (IEC 60601-1, 60601-2-18, 60601-1-2).
Technological Characteristics
Flexible video bronchoscope; LED light source at distal tip; CMOS camera; working channel for accessories. Sterilized by Ethylene Oxide. Connectivity: proprietary connection to aView monitor; external monitor output. Standards: ISO 8600-1, ISO 8600-3, ISO 8600-4, ISO 594-1, IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-2-18, IEC 60601-1-2.
Indications for Use

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.
