Intended Use
The SharkCore™ Fine Needle Biopsy System is used with an ultrasound endoscope for fine needle biopsy (FNB), of submucosal lesions, mediastinal masses, lymph nodes and intaperitoneal masses within or adjacent to the needle is designed with a passive (i.e., automatic) safety shielding feature to aid in the prevention of needle stick injury.
Device Story
SharkCore™ Fine Needle Biopsy System is an echogenic biopsy needle used via ultrasound endoscope instrument channel. System comprises Beacon™ EUS Delivery System and exchangeable SharkCore™ FNB needle sub-assembly. Used by physicians to sample submucosal and extramural gastrointestinal lesions. Needle features passive, automatic safety shielding to prevent needle stick injuries. Device is single-use. Physician visualizes target via ultrasound endoscope, advances needle to sample tissue; output is tissue sample for diagnostic evaluation. Benefits include targeted biopsy of lesions within or adjacent to GI tract.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. No clinical data provided.
Technological Characteristics
Echogenic biopsy needle; modular design (delivery system and exchangeable needle sub-assembly); passive automatic safety shielding; single-use; compatible with ultrasound endoscope instrument channels.
Indications for Use
Indicated for fine needle biopsy (FNB) of submucosal lesions, mediastinal masses, lymph nodes, and intraperitoneal masses within or adjacent to the gastrointestinal tract using an ultrasound endoscope.

Dear Saket Bhatt,
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

## Device Description
The SharkCore™ Fine Needle Biopsy (FNB) System is an echogenic biopsy needle used through the instrument channel of an ultrasound imaging endoscope. The system is used to sample targeted submucosal and extramural gastrointestinal lesions through the accessory channel of an ultrasound endoscope. The SharkCore™ Fine Needle Biopsy (FNB) System is modular in design consisting of two major components; i.e., a delivery system (Beacon™ EUS Delivery System) and a separate exchangeable needle sub-assembly (SharkCore™ FNB Needle).
{5}------------------------------------------------
### Indications for Use
The SharkCore™ Fine Needle Biopsy System is used with an ultrasound endoscope for fine needle biopsy, (FNB), of submucosal lesions, mediastinal masses, lymph nodes and intaperitoneal masses within or adjacent to the gastrointestinal tract. The needle is designed with a passive (i.e., automatic) safety shielding feature to aid in the prevention of needle stick injury.
## Technological Characteristics Compared to Predicate Devices
The SharkCore™ Fine Needle Biopsy System is identical to the legally marketed BNX™ Fine Needle Aspiration System (reference K133008) in terms of principle of operation, technological and performance characteristics (control mechanism, environmental specifications, dimensional specifications, ergonomics of patient-user interface, packaging, sterilization and shelf life), materials, anatomical site, operating instructions, and single-use disposition. The SharkCore Fine Needle Biopsy System is substantially equivalent to the legally marketed EchoTip Ultra Ultrasound Needle (reference K083330; Feb 06, 2009) in terms of indications for use, anatomical location of use and labeling.
#### Performance Data
Bench testing demonstrates performance equivalence for the SharkCore FNB system when evaluated against its predicate devices.
#### Conclusion
Covidien IIc considers the SharkCore™ Fine Needle Biopsy System to be substantially equivalent to legally marketed predicate devices BNX Fine Needle Aspiration System (reference K133008, November 20, 2013), and EchoTip Ultra Ultrasound Needle (reference K08330; Feb 06, 2009). The test results and compliance with applicable standards provide reasonable assurance that the device has been designed and tested to assure conformance to the requirements for its indications for use.
