No
The device description focuses on the mechanical and electrical components for delivering argon plasma energy for coagulation, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities.
Yes
The device is intended for "argon enhanced coagulation of tissue" to "treat various target tissues inside a patient," which describes a therapeutic function.
No
The device is used for tissue coagulation via argon gas plasma energy and electrosurgical current, not for diagnosis.
No
The device description clearly outlines physical components such as tubular instruments, a connector/handle, an inner lumen, an internal wire, a tungsten electrode tip, and a ceramic tip, indicating it is a hardware device, not software-only.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. These tests are performed outside the body (in vitro).
- Device Function: The Canady Plasma Probes are used inside the body (in vivo) during endoscopic surgical procedures. They deliver argon gas plasma energy and electrosurgical current directly to tissue for coagulation.
- Intended Use: The intended use is for "argon enhanced coagulation of tissue," which is a therapeutic procedure performed on the patient's body, not a diagnostic test on a sample.
Therefore, the function and intended use of the Canady Plasma Probes clearly place them outside the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use

Device Description
The Canady Plasma Probes are tubular instruments and are flexible. They are provided in various lengths and diameter sizes to accommodate the various size/types of endoscopes for a variety of applications (i.e. the treatment of various target tissues inside a patient). The Probes have applications in endoscopic surgical procedures such as upper and lower gastroenterology and bronchoscopy to provide a means of coagulation using electrosurgical current and argon gas.
The device consists of a connector which acts also as a handle for maneuvering the probe inside the working channel of an endoscope. Via an inner lumen of the Canady Plasma Probe argon gas is delivered to the operative site as well as an internal wire to carry high frequency (HF) electrosurgical current to a tungsten electrode tip at the end of the tubing. A ceramic tip insulates the thermal plastic tubing from the heat generated during coagulation. The electrode is positioned in the ceramic tip such that it cannot contact the patient's tissue during coagulation procedure.
The Canady Plasma Probes are provided sterile by means of ethylene oxide and are disposable (Single Use)
Application
