Questions
AI-generated answers, 18 Sep 2026
What clinical specialties are these devices primarily intended for, and how do they support procedures in those fields?
The StoneSmart Connect Console and LithoVue Elite ureteroscopes (both Standard and Reverse Deflection) are designed for use in gastroenterology and urology settings. They enable minimally invasive procedures to visualize and treat urinary stones (renal or ureteral calculi) by providing enhanced deflection capabilities for precise navigation within the urinary tract. The console integrates with a digital flexible ureteroscope to offer real-time imaging and intrarenal pressure monitoring, which aids clinicians in safely and effectively accessing and managing stones.
Are these devices single-use or reusable, and what does that mean for storage and handling?
These devices are single-use systems, meaning they are intended for one-time use only. As single-use items, they must be stored according to sterile single-use protocols to ensure safety and efficacy. This includes maintaining proper packaging integrity, avoiding contamination, and adhering to manufacturer guidelines for shelf life and environmental conditions (e.g., temperature, humidity). Reuse is not recommended or supported.
What are the key differences between the LithoVue Elite Standard Deflection and Reverse Deflection models?
The LithoVue Elite Standard Deflection and Reverse Deflection models are both flexible ureteroscopes, but their primary distinction lies in their deflection capabilities. Standard Deflection provides forward and side-to-side bending, while Reverse Deflection offers additional flexibility in the opposite direction, allowing for more precise navigation in complex anatomical pathways. This can be particularly useful for accessing stones in challenging locations within the urinary tract.
How are these devices regulated, and what does that mean for purchasing or using them in clinical practice?
These devices are regulated under FDA 510K clearance and the EU Medical Device Regulation (MDR), classifying them as Class II medical devices in the U.S. under 21 CFR 876.1500. This means they undergo rigorous review to ensure safety and effectiveness before market authorization. For purchasing or clinical use, this implies compliance with regulatory requirements, including proper training, adherence to manufacturer instructions, and adherence to sterile single-use protocols. The regulatory route ensures these devices meet established standards for ureteroscopes and accessories.
