Boston Scientific Corp. (BSX) said the U.S. Food and Drug
Administration gave 510(k) clearance of the Exalt Model D
Single-Use Duodenoscope for use in endoscopic retrograde
cholangiopancreatography procedures.
The EXALT Model D Duodenoscope is a disposable duodenoscope and
was granted Breakthrough Device Designation from the FDA, Boston
Scientific said.
The device was been developed as an alternative to reusable
duodenoscopes, eliminating the need for duodenoscope reprocessing
and repairs, and allowing physicians to use a new, sterile device
for every procedure.
The company plans to commence a limited market release of the
device in the U.S. during the first quarter of 2020.
