No
The description focuses on the mechanical and electrical components of the device for injection, electrohemostasis, and irrigation. There is no mention of any computational or algorithmic processing, let alone AI/ML.
Yes
The device is indicated for endoscopic injection therapy and electrohemostasis to treat actual or potential bleeding sites in the gastrointestinal tract, which are therapeutic interventions.
No
The device is indicated for therapeutic procedures like endoscopic injection therapy and electrohemostasis to treat bleeding sites, not for diagnosing conditions.
No
The device description clearly details a physical catheter with a needle, electrodes, and irrigation capabilities, 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 tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections. They are used outside of the body (in vitro) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- Device Function: The Injection Gold Probe™ Bipolar Electrohemostasis Catheter is a device used inside the body (in vivo) during endoscopic procedures. Its functions are:
- Injection Therapy: Delivering pharmacological agents directly into tissue.
- Electrohemostasis: Using electrical energy to cauterize tissue and coagulate blood.
- Irrigation: Flushing the area with saline or water.
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes procedures performed directly on the gastrointestinal tract to treat bleeding sites. This is a therapeutic intervention, not a diagnostic test performed on a sample.
The device is a therapeutic medical device used for direct intervention within the body, not for analyzing samples outside the body for diagnostic purposes.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Injection Gold Probe™ Bipolar Electrohemostasis Catheter is indicated for use in endoscopic injection therapy (to deliver pharmacological injection agents, such as vasoconstrictors) and endoscopic electrohemostasis (cauterization of tissue and coagulation of blood) of actual or potential bleeding sites in the gastrointestinal tract. These sites include the following:
- Peptic Ulcers
- Dieulafoy Lesions
- Mallory-Weiss Tears
- Bleeding Polyp Stalks
- Arteriovenous Malformations (AVMs)
- Angiomata
The Injection Gold Probe Bipolar Electrohemostasis Catheter also has irrigation capability. Any other use is not recommended.

Device Description
The Injection Gold Probe Catheter is an injection therapy and bipolar electrohemostasis catheter with irrigation capabilities. The Injection Gold Probe Catheter is available with two different style electrical connectors (plugs), Standard and Banana. The Injection Gold Probe Catheter is available in a working length of 210cm with outer diameter of 7Fr (2.3mm) and 10Fr (3.3mm) compatible with a minimum working channel of 2.8mm and 3.7mm.
I. Injection Therapy
Each Injection Gold Probe Catheter contains a 25gauge injection needle for injection therapy. The catheter handle contains the injection needle hub. Injection is performed by attaching a luerlock syringe to the "Injection" hub and advancing the needle.
II. Bipolar Electrohemostasis
The gold spiral electrode on the probe tip provides bipolar electrohemostasis. The Injection Gold Probe Catheter has a standard plug which adapts to Symmetry Endostat, Endostat II and Bicap bipolar electrosurgical generators or Banana plugs which are recommended for use with Valleylab bipolar electrosurgical generator containing female Banana plug receptacles. The Valleylab generators should be used with the appropriate Valleylab accessories, reference the operating manuals for specifications.
III. Irrigation
Irrigation with saline or sterile water is performed by connecting the irrigation hub to the irrigation port of the bipolar generator for the Standard plug or to a 30ml (30cc) or 60ml (60cc) luer-lock syringe for the Banana plug.
