Intended Use

The Single-use Bronchoscopes have been designed to be used with the Electronic Endoscope Imaging Processor, endotherapy accessories and other ancillary equipment for endoscopy within the airways and tracheobronchial tree. The Bronchoscope System is for use in a hospital environment. The Single-use Bronchoscope is a single-use device designed for use in adults.

Technology

The device uses a flexible single-use bronchoscope with a distal tip LED cold light source and CMOS image sensor to capture images inside the body. The electronic processor encodes and processes RGB video signals, controlling LED brightness and outputting image data to a monitor for real-time visualization during endoscopy.

Performance

Non-clinical tests demonstrated compliance with electrical safety (IEC 60601-1), electromagnetic compatibility (IEC 60601-1-2), usability (IEC 62366-1), biocompatibility (ISO 10993 series), and sterilization standards (ISO 11135 and ISO 11607). System performance tests verified deflection, flexing, imaging parameters (signal-to-noise, field of view, distortion), and image quality, confirming safety and substantial equivalence without clinical testing.
