Questions
AI-generated answers, 19 Sep 2026
What clinical specialties is this endoilluminator primarily used in, and why is it designed for single-use?
This disposable fiberoptic endoilluminator is primarily used in gastroenterology and urology procedures, as indicated by its regulatory classification under product code MPA and advisory committee focus on these specialties. It is designed for single-use only to eliminate the need for sterilization, reducing infection risks and ensuring consistent performance in endoscopic examinations. This aligns with standard endoscopic practice guidelines for disposable devices.
How is this device supplied, and are there multiple sizes or models available?
The device is supplied as a disposable unit, meaning each unit is intended for one-time use. While the regulatory data lists multiple FEI numbers (e.g., 3000215205, 1000117501), these are manufacturer-specific identifiers rather than distinct size or model specifications. No explicit size variations or model differences are described in the provided data, so it appears as a standardized disposable design.
Does this endoilluminator require any special handling or storage conditions?
Since it is a disposable, single-use device, no sterilization is required. However, standard sterile packaging is implied for clinical use. Storage should follow general medical device guidelines—keep in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures, to preserve functionality until use. The lack of MRI safety information also suggests it should not be exposed to magnetic fields.
What regulatory pathway was followed for FDA clearance, and how does that affect its use?
The device received FDA 510(k) clearance (K952586) under the traditional pathway, meaning it was deemed substantially equivalent to a legally marketed predicate device. This clearance confirms its compliance with U.S. safety and performance standards for Class II medical devices (product code MPA). Clinically, this means it meets FDA requirements for use in gastroenterology and urology procedures, but users should always follow the manufacturer’s instructions for proper handling and disposal.
