Intended Use
The Olympus working element for probes (e.g. laser fibers), guiding tubes and injection cannula are intended to examine and to perform various diagnostic and therapeutic procedures in the urological tract.
Device Story
Olympus working elements, guiding tubes, and injection cannulas are mechanical accessories for endoscopes used in urological procedures. These devices facilitate the insertion and manipulation of probes, such as laser fibers, or the delivery of fluids into the urological tract. Operated by physicians in clinical settings, these tools assist in performing diagnostic and therapeutic interventions. The devices provide a physical channel or guidance mechanism for instruments, enabling precise access to the target anatomy. By allowing for controlled probe placement and fluid injection, these accessories support minimally invasive urological care, potentially improving procedural outcomes and patient recovery.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data provided; bench testing only.
Technological Characteristics
Mechanical endoscope accessories including working elements, guiding tubes, and injection cannulas. Devices are designed for manual operation to guide probes or deliver fluids. Materials and construction are consistent with standard urological endoscopic accessories. No energy source or software components are utilized.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients requiring diagnostic or therapeutic procedures in the urological tract, including use with laser fibers or other probes.
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.
