The CryoShape is intended to destroy tissue during surgical procedures by applying extreme cold.

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.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes a medical device, the CryoNeedle (also referred to as CryoShape in the FDA letter), and its intended use, but it does not contain information about a study that proves the device meets specific acceptance criteria.

The document is primarily a 510(k) premarket notification summary and an FDA clearance letter. It establishes substantial equivalence to a predicate device and states the intended use. It mentions that the device "meets all the declared requirements of its intended use" and "presents no adverse health effect or safety risks," but it does not provide any specific quantitative acceptance criteria or evidence from a study to back these claims.

Therefore, I cannot populate the table or answer many of the questions as the information is not present in the provided text.

Here's a breakdown of what can be extracted and what is explicitly missing:

1. Table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance:

Acceptance CriteriaReported Device Performance
No specific quantitative acceptance criteria are provided in the text.The device achieves temperatures of -25℃ to -50℃ (-139F to -58°F) within 30 seconds. This is a functional description, not a performance metric against a stated acceptance criterion.

2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance:

  • Not provided. The document does not describe any specific clinical or performance test set.

3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts:

  • Not applicable/Not provided. No test set or ground truth establishment by experts is described.

4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set:

  • Not applicable/Not provided. No test set or adjudication process is described.

5. If a multi reader multi case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance:

  • No. This device is a cryosurgical instrument, not an AI-powered diagnostic or assistive tool. MRMC studies are not relevant here.

6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the loop performance) was done:

  • Not applicable. This is a physical cryosurgical instrument, not an algorithm.

7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc):

  • Not provided. No ground truth for any study is mentioned. The clearance is based on substantial equivalence to a predicate device and adherence to a consensus standard (ASTM F882-84(2002)).

8. The sample size for the training set:

  • Not applicable/Not provided. This is not an AI device, so there is no "training set."

9. How the ground truth for the training set was established:

  • Not applicable/Not provided. No training set is mentioned.

1. Device Definition and Intended Use

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.

The device is intended to destroy tissue during surgical procedures by applying extreme cold.

Substantial Equivalence (SE) 2.

The CryoNeedle manufactured by Etgar Group H.M.Y.A. Ltd. is considered to be SE to the CryoprobeTM by H&O Equipments NV/SA, Inc.

3. Consensus Standard

  • FDA has recognized consensus standard relevant to the CryoNeedle: a.

ASTM F882-84(2002), Standard Performance and Safety Specification for Cryosurgical Medical Instruments. (General Plastic Surgery/General Hospital)

  • The modification relative to the cleared predicate device does not introduce any new b. hazards and does not affect the mitigations and CAPA.

4. Summarv

The CryoNeedle constitutes a safe, reliable and effective medical device meeting all the declared requirements of its intended use. The device presents no adverse health effect or safety risks to patients when used as intended.

Dear Mr. Arazy:

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.
