Flexible video cystoscope, reusable

A flexible video cystoscope is a reusable endoscope designed for visual inspection and treatment of the bladder and urinary tract via the urethra. It features a flexible insertion tube with a distal camera that transmits real-time images to a monitor, enabling clinicians to diagnose conditions such as urinary incontinence, retention, recurrent infections, and to perform procedures like stone or tumor removal and stent extraction.

Devices in this category are reusable and subject to regulatory requirements for reprocessing, sterilization, and safety performance. They are classified based on their intended use and risk profile, with regulatory oversight focusing on design, materials, and validation of cleaning and disinfection processes to ensure safe repeated use.
