The description focuses on standard electrosurgical generator functionality, monitoring parameters, and automatic shut-off based on pre-defined limits, without mentioning any learning or adaptive capabilities.
Yes
The device is used for the "coagulation and ablation of soft tissue" and the "palliation of pain associated with metastatic lesions involving bone," which are therapeutic applications.
No
The device is an RF generator used for surgical ablation of soft tissue, not for diagnosing conditions. It provides energy for treatment, monitoring parameters during the procedure, but does not identify diseases or conditions.
No
The device description clearly outlines hardware components such as an RF Generator, electrosurgical devices, cables, and a dispersive electrode. The software is part of a larger hardware system.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the RITA® System is used for the "coagulation and ablation of soft tissue" within the body (percutaneous, laparoscopic, or intraoperative). This is a therapeutic procedure performed on the patient, not a diagnostic test performed on a sample taken from the patient.
- Device Description: The description details a system that delivers radiofrequency energy to tissue. This is consistent with a therapeutic device, not a device that analyzes biological samples.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue samples, etc.), detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information based on laboratory testing.
IVD devices are specifically designed to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. The RITA® System's function is to directly treat tissue within the body.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The RITA System (RF Generator and electrosurgical devices) supplies energy for use in electrosurgery and is indicated for use in percutaneous, laparoscopic, or intraoperative coagulation and ablation of soft tissue, including the partial or complete ablation of non-resectable liver lesions, and the palliation of pain associated with metastatic lesions involving bone in patients who have failed or are not candidates for standard pain therapy.

Device Description
The Model 1500X Electrosurgical RF Generator is designed to provide monopolar radiofrequency (RF) energy. The RF Generator is a 250 W electrosurgical generator specifically designed for use with RITA electrosurgical devices. It can read multiple temperature sensors and includes impedance and power monitoring to assist the physician in monitoring and controlling the ablation.
To use the system, the RF Generator is plugged into the wall outlet via the Power Cord. The electrosurgical device is connected to the RF Generator via the Main Cable. The Dispersive Electrode is placed on the appropriate location of the body and is connected to its port on the RF Generator. Once the system is successfully powered up, the user can set the parameters of the ablation such as the mode of operation, the ablation time, the target temperature, and the power delivery level. With the electrosurgical device placed in the tissue to be ablated and its electrodes deployed, RF power can be turned on. The system parameters are continuously monitored and displayed on the RF Generator. If the measured parameters are outside the acceptable limits, the RF energy delivery automatically stops and a message appears on the liquid crystal display (LCD). The RF energy delivery also automatically ceases once the ablation is completed based on the initial user-defined parameters. RF energy can be stopped at any time by pressing the RF ON/OFF switch.
