More Information

Not Found

No
The summary does not mention any AI or ML terms, image processing, or performance metrics typically associated with AI/ML-driven devices. The device description focuses on hardware components and its intended use is for coagulation, which is a standard medical procedure.

Yes
The device is used for the coagulation of bleeding and non-bleeding sites in the gastrointestinal tract to treat various conditions, which fits the definition of a therapeutic device.

No

The device is described as a coagulation system for treating bleeding or non-bleeding sites in the gastrointestinal tract, indicating a therapeutic rather than diagnostic purpose.

No

The device description explicitly states that the system consists of a generator, catheter, output cable, and optional footswitch, which are all hardware components.

Based on the provided information, the HALO® Coagulation System is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for the coagulation of bleeding and non-bleeding sites in the gastrointestinal tract. This is a therapeutic procedure performed directly on the patient's tissue, not a test performed on a sample taken from the body.
  • Device Description: The system consists of a generator, catheter, cable, and footswitch. These are all components used for delivering energy to tissue, not for analyzing biological samples.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (like blood, tissue, etc.), performing tests, or providing diagnostic information based on sample analysis.

IVD devices are designed to perform tests on samples taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. The HALO® Coagulation System is a therapeutic device used for treating conditions within the body.

Intended Use / Indications for Use

The HALO® Coagulation System intended use is for the coagulation of bleeding and non-bleeding sites in the gastrointestinal tract.

The HALO® Coagulation System is indicated for use in the coagulation of bleeding and non-bleeding sites in the gastrointestinal tract including but not limited to, the esophagus. Indications include Esophageal Ulcers, Mallory-Weiss tears, Arteriovenous Malformations, Angiomata, Barrett's Esophagus, Dieulafoy Lesions, and Angiodysplasia.

Technological Characteristics

The HALO® Coagulation System consists of the HALO® Coagulation Generator with a disposable single-use HALO® Coagulation Catheter, output cable, and an optional footswitch. The HALO® Coagulation System performance and mode of operation is substantially equivalent to the already cleared HALO®60 Coagulation System and Stellartech Coagulation System 2.

Substantial Equivalence

The HALO® Coagulation System and the predicate devices: HALO360 Coagulation System and Stellartech Coagulation System 2 have the same or similar intended use, indications for use, technological characteristics, and principles of operation. The technological differences between the HALO® Coagulation System and its predicates are: (1) use of an endoscope and pivot mechanism for electrode positioning; (2) elimination of the sizing balloon and the need to select a custom size coagulation catheter; (3) additional materials; and (4) minor modification of the generator software to support the changes in the catheter design. All these differences were evaluated on bench and did not raise questions regarding safety and efficacy. Thus the devices are equivalent.

Dear Ms. Filimon:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Image /page/2/Picture/10 description: The image shows a logo with the text "FDA Centennial 1906-2006" in a circular design. Below the logo, the words "Promoting Public" are written in a cursive font. The logo appears to be a commemorative emblem for the FDA's centennial anniversary. The text is black and the background is white.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801), please contact the Office of Compliance at one of the following numbers, based on the regulation number at the top of this letter:
