Endoscopic surgical probes are flexible, hand-held instruments designed to assist surgeons during minimally invasive procedures. Inserted through an endoscope, they help explore internal tissues, measure distances, or perform targeted interventions like biopsy sampling or tissue manipulation, often in joint or abdominal surgeries.
These devices are typically reusable and made from durable materials like metal or synthetic polymers. Regulation varies by jurisdiction, but they are generally classified based on their intended use and risk level, with oversight from bodies like the FDA or EU MDR. Always check local requirements before use or procurement.
