Device Description
The CryoNeedle Cryoprobe manufactured by Etgar Group H.M.Y.A. Ltd. (U.S Patent 6.503,246) is a hand-held cryosurgical instrument for destroving tissue during surgical procedures by intralesional application of extremely cold cryoprobe. The device is based on intralesional application of a needle cooled by the cryogenic fluid (liquid nitrogen with boiling temperature -196℃ (-320.8ºF)) to a selected area to effect cellular destruction. . The needle is cooled by the cryogenic fluid (liquid nitrogen - boiling temperature -196°C (-320.8°F)) is applied intralesionally to a selected area to effect cellular destruction. By forcing liquid nitrogen to circulate through the needle an ice ball around the CryoNeedle developed causing the abutted HSK tissue to be completely frozen. As this iceball grows, its leading edge advances through tissue. Tissue that comes into contact with the iceball is destroyed. Temperatures of -25℃ to -50℃ (-139F to -58°F) are achieved within 30 seconds.
More Information

K/DEN number: Not Found

No
The document describes a purely mechanical cryosurgical device that uses liquid nitrogen to freeze tissue. There is no mention of any software, data processing, or learning algorithms.

No.
A therapeutic device is typically understood to be one that treats disease or disorders, restores function, or alleviates symptoms. This device is described as destroying tissue, which is a surgical action rather than a therapeutic/restorative one.

No

The device description clearly states its purpose is to "destroy tissue during surgical procedures by applying extreme cold." This describes a therapeutic, not diagnostic, function.

No

The device description clearly details a physical, hand-held cryosurgical instrument (CryoNeedle Cryoprobe) that uses liquid nitrogen to destroy tissue. This involves hardware components and a physical mechanism of action, not solely software.

Based on the provided information, the CryoShape is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to "destroy tissue during surgical procedures by applying extreme cold." This is a therapeutic or surgical intervention, not a diagnostic test performed on samples outside the body.
  • Device Description: The description details a hand-held cryosurgical instrument that applies extreme cold directly to tissue within the body to cause destruction. This is a physical intervention, not a test that analyzes biological samples.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue samples, etc.)
    • Providing information about a patient's health status, disease, or condition based on sample analysis.
    • Using reagents or other substances to perform a test on a sample.

In summary, the CryoShape is a surgical device used for tissue destruction, which falls under the category of therapeutic or surgical devices, not In Vitro Diagnostics.
