Intended Use
Galil Medical Cryoablation Systems are intended for cryoablative destruction of tissue during surgical procedures. The cryoablation systems is indicated for use as a cryosurgical tool in the fields of general surgery, dermatology, neurology (including cryoanalgesia), thoracic surgery, ENT, gynecology, oncology, proctology, and urology. The system is designed to destroy tissue by the application of extreme cold temperatures including prostate and kidney tissue, liver metastases, tumors, skin lesions, and warts. Galil Medical Cryoablation Systems have the following specific indications: - Urology (ablation of prostate tissue in cases of prostate cancer and Benign Prostate Hyperplasia "BPH") - . Oncology (ablation of cancerous or malignant tissue and benign turnors, and palliative intervention) - . Dermatology (ablation or freezing of skin cancers and other cutaneous disorders. Destruction of warts or lesions, angiomas, sebaceous hyperplasia, basal cell turnors of the eyelid or canthus area, ulcerated basal cell tumors, dermatofibromas small hemanglomas, mucocele cysts, multiple warts, plantar warts, actinic and seborrheic keratoses, cavernous hemanglomas, perianal condylomata, and palliation of tumors of the skin.) - Gynecology (ablation of malignant neoplasia or benign dysplasia of the female genitalia) . - . General surgery (palliation of tumors of the rectum, hemorrhoids, anal fissures, pilonidal cysts, and recurrent cancerous lesions, ablation of breast fibroadenoma) - . ENT (Palliation of tumors of the oral cavity and ablation of leukoplakia of the mouth) - . Thoracic surgery (ablation of arrhythmic cardiac tissue cancerous lesions) - . Proctology (ablation of benign or malignant growths of the anus or rectum, and hemorrhoids)
Device Description
The IceRod Plus 17G Cryoablation Needles are sterile, single use, disposable components used in conjunction with a Galil Medical Cryoablation System when performing cryoablative destruction of tissue. They are intended to convert high-pressure gas to either a very cold freezing application or to a warm thawing application. The IceRod Plus needles are available in two configurations, straight and angled 90°. Each 17-gauge (17G) disposable cryoablation needle has a sharp cutting tip, a shaft, a color-coded handle, a gas tube, and a connector. Additionally, each needle exhibits markings every 5 mm to aid in positioning the needle in tissue. The IceRod Plus needles differ from the predicate device in that they contain an inner vacuum insulated tube to provide additional shaft insulation during a cryoablation procedure.

No
The document describes a cryoablation needle and system that uses extreme cold temperatures to destroy tissue. There is no mention of AI or ML in the intended use, device description, performance studies, or any other section. The technology described is based on physical principles of cryoablation.

Yes
The device is described as a "cryoablative destruction of tissue during surgical procedures" for various medical conditions, indicating its use in treating diseases or injuries, which aligns with the definition of a therapeutic device.

No

Explanation: The device is a cryoablation system intended for the destruction of tissue using extreme cold temperatures during surgical procedures. Its purpose is therapeutic, not diagnostic.

No

The device description explicitly details physical components like needles, shafts, handles, and gas tubes, indicating it is a hardware device used in conjunction with a cryoablation system.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device is for "cryoablative destruction of tissue during surgical procedures." This is a therapeutic procedure performed directly on the patient's body.
  • Device Description: The device description details a "Cryoablation System" and "Cryoablation Needles" which are tools used for physically destroying tissue with extreme cold.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue samples) in vitro (outside the body) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.

IVD devices are used to perform tests on samples taken from the body to provide diagnostic information. This device is a surgical tool used for treatment.

Summary of Performance Data and Substantial Equivalence:

The IceRod Plus Cryoablation Needles have the same intended use and method of operation as compared to the predicate devices. The IceRod Plus needles differ in design in that they contain an inner vacuum insulated tube to enhance shaft insulation during the cryoablation procedure. Both the new and predicate devices consist of a sharp cutting tip, a shaft, a color-coded handle, a gas tube, and a connector. Both the new and predicate devices are comprised of similar materials and serve as conduits for high pressure gas during a cryoablation procedure.

Performance testing was conducted on the IceRod Plus Cryoablation Needles to verify safety and performance characteristics and to establish substantial equivalence.
