Intended Use
To be attached to the distal end of the endoscope to facilitate endoscopic therapy, to be used for the following: - Keeping the suitable depth of endoscope's view field - Helping the endoscope with being inserted into the gastrointestinal tract
Device Story
Arc EndoCuff is a single-use, sterile, cylindrical polymer attachment for the distal end of an endoscope. It features flexible 'hair' structures that fold during forward movement (intubation) and open when the device is withdrawn to manipulate colonic folds, maintain a central position in the lumen, and prevent slippage. Used by gastroenterologists during endoscopic procedures to stabilize the endoscope and optimize the field of view. The device provides mechanical assistance to the physician, potentially improving visualization and procedural efficiency. It is a passive mechanical accessory; no electronic or software components are involved.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Performance data confirmed the device maintains field of view and aids insertion similarly to predicate devices. Biocompatibility testing (USP Class VI) demonstrated no safety concerns. No clinical data provided.
Technological Characteristics
Cylindrical polymer device; flexible 'hair' features for lumen stabilization; radiation sterilized; single-use. Materials conform to USP Class VI. Mechanical attachment mechanism; no energy source or software.
Indications for Use
Indicated for use in patients undergoing endoscopic therapy to assist in maintaining endoscope field of view and aiding insertion into the gastrointestinal tract.

### Description
### Description of Device
The Arc EndoCuff has a short tube like shape with flexible hairs and is attached to the distal end of the endoscope to facilitate endoscopic therapy.
The Arc EndoCuff is designed to fit specific endoscopes (as designated on the packaging), and is supplied sterile following radiation sterilization and is single use only.
#### Indications for Use:
To be attached to the distal end of the endoscope to facilitate endoscopic therapy, to be used for the following:
- Keeping the suitable depth of endoscope's view field
- Helping the endoscope with being inserted into the gastrointestinal tract �
Summary of the Technological Characteristics of the Device compared to the Predicate Device
#### Design
The EndoCuff are a cylindrical shaped all polymer products. It utilises the combined properties of two polymer materials to self-retain to the designated endoscope(s). The product features a number of flexible "hair" features that fold within the structure of the product during intubation and forward movement when in use, and open out when drawn backward to control field of view.
#### Materials
EndoCuff raw materials have been purpose chosen as conforming to USP class VI and tested for biocompatibility (See Section 15).
#### Size:
The product is similar in bodily size and cylindrical shape to the products seen in both the Olympus Reusable (MH Series K984358) and Single-use (D-201 Series K984358) Distal Attachment model ranges.
The flexible hair features work at a similar diameter to the size of the 200 predicate Fujinon BS-2 balloon (when inflated).
{2}------------------------------------------------
### Summary of the Determination of Substantial Equivalence & Performance Data
The EndoCuff is used to maintain and maximise the endoscopes field of view during endoscopic therapy by manipulating colonic folds, maintaining a central position in the lumen and avoiding sudden slippage. The nominated predicate devices maximise the field of view in the same way, in particular:
- . The Olympus Distal Attachment (MH Series and D-201 series K984358), is used to manipulate colonic folds; and
- . The Fujinon BS-2 balloon (K090116) maintains central position in the lumen and avoids slippage by exerting circumferential pressure.
The bench testing demonstrates that the Endocuff design combines some of the benefits of both being a slim cylindrical device (like the Olympus product) and being able to stabilise and view the mucosa effectively on a greater diameter (as does the Fujinon balloon) but within the one product.
The design of the device is similar in length and is cylindrical in shape. Like both types of predicate devices, flexible polymers are the means for attachment/retention to the distal end of an endoscope.
The device contacts the patient in the same way and for the same period of time however they are made from different materials and are sterilised (where appropriate) using different methods.
The performance data showed that the sterilisation method selected (Arc EndoCuff is irradiated and the D-201 Series is Ethylene Oxide sterilised K984358) has not introduced any additional risks and the patient contacting materials have been tested for biocompatibility with reports demonstrating no negatives in safety or effectiveness
The bench testing has demonstrated that the device does not introduce any additional risks when undertaking endoscopic therapy and meeting the intended use.
#### Conclusion
After a review of the bench testing, it is concluded that the Arc EndoCuff is as safe and effective as the predicate devices for facilitating endoscopic therapy.
There are a few minor technological differences, in both materials used and the design. However the bio-compatibility testing shows that no additional risks are introduced from the materials used, and the performance testing demonstrates that there are no design weaknesses that could affect safety or effectiveness. There are no new indications for use and therefore by following the FDA 510(k) "Substantial Equivalence" decision making process,
http://www.fda.gov/MedicalDevices/DeviceRegulationandGuidance/HowtoMarketYourD evice/PremarketSubmissions/PremarketNotification510k/ucm134783.htm
it is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
