The summary describes a radiofrequency ablation catheter and its function, with no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or data-driven decision-making.
Yes
The device is described as a radiofrequency (RF) catheter used to "cauterize and coagulate tissue in the gastrointestinal tract," indicating it directly treats a condition or disease.
No
The device is described as a radiofrequency (RF) catheter used to "cauterize and coagulate tissue," which implies a therapeutic or surgical function, not a diagnostic one. There is no mention of it being used to detect, identify, or monitor medical conditions.
No
The device description explicitly states it is a radiofrequency (RF) catheter with electrodes and an attached cable, connecting to an RF Generator. This indicates it is a hardware device, not software-only.
Based on the provided information, the Habib Endoblate is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: IVD devices are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) taken from the human body to provide information about a person's health. This testing is done in vitro (outside the body).
- Habib Endoblate Function: The Habib Endoblate is a therapeutic device used in vivo (inside the body) to directly treat tissue in the gastrointestinal tract through cauterization and coagulation using radiofrequency energy. It does not analyze specimens or provide diagnostic information.
The description clearly states its purpose is to "cauterize and coagulate tissue in the gastrointestinal tract," which is a treatment function, not a diagnostic one.

Device Description
The Habib Endoblate is a bipolar radiofrequency (RF) device that consists of a catheter with 3 contact electrodes and 1 ring electrode, introduced via an endoscope's biopsy channel and activated with bipolar RF energy. The Habib Endoblate has an attached cable which connects the device to an RF Generator. The catheter is inserted into the gastrointestinal tract and the tissue is coagulated using the RF power. The Habib Endoblate is designed for use in endoscopy and is a single use sterile device.

SECTION 3 Summary of Safety and Effectiveness
The Habib Endoblate has an attached cable which connects the device to an RF Generator. The catheter is inserted into the gastrointestinal tract and the tissue is coagulated using the RF power. The Habib Endoblate is designed for use in endoscopy and is a single use sterile device.
Technological Differences:
The Habib Endoblate has the same basic technological characteristics as the Gold Probe. Both devices use bipolar RF energy through a number of electrodes to coagulate tissue.
Performance Data:
Performance testing was undertaken to ensure that the Habib Endoblate functions as intended and meets design specifications. Sufficient data was obtained to show that the device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device and meets safety and effectiveness criteria.

Dear Mr. Christensen:
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 (PMA), 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.

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 (OS) 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 Center for Devices and Radiological Health's (CDRH's) Office of Compliance at one of the following numbers, based on the regulation number at the top of this letter.
