The description focuses on the mechanical and electrical components of the RF ablation system and does not mention any AI or ML capabilities.
Yes
The device is intended for the "palliative treatment" of metastatic malignant lesions, which indicates a therapeutic purpose to alleviate symptoms or treat the condition.
No
The device description indicates that the OsteoCool™ RF Ablation System delivers RF energy to ablate metastatic malignant lesions. Its stated purpose is "palliative treatment," which is a form of therapy, not diagnosis.
No
The device description clearly lists multiple hardware components including probes, introducers, a pump unit, cables, and a generator. It is a system that utilizes hardware to deliver RF energy and cooling.
Based on the provided information, the OsteoCool™ RF Ablation System is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is for "palliative treatment in spinal procedures by ablation of metastatic malignant lesions in a vertebral body". This describes a therapeutic intervention performed in vivo (within the living body) to treat a condition.
- Device Description: The description details components used for delivering radiofrequency energy and cooling directly to tissue within the body. This is consistent with a therapeutic device.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: IVD devices are designed to examine specimens (like blood, urine, tissue samples) outside the body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. The OsteoCool™ system does not perform any such analysis of specimens.
In summary, the OsteoCool™ RF Ablation System is a therapeutic device used for treating a condition within the body, not for diagnosing or monitoring conditions by analyzing samples outside the body.

Device Description
The OsteoCool™ RF Ablation System includes the following components:
-
- OsteoCool™ RF Ablation Kit consisting of:
- a. OsteoCool™ Probe
- b. OsteoCool™ Introducer
- c. Tube Kit
-
- Pain Management Pump Unit & Pump Connector Cable
-
- Baylis Pain Management Generator-TD
-
- DuoCool™ Connector Cable
The OsteoCool™ RF Ablation System is designed to deliver controlled radiofrequency (RF) energy in a bipolar manner with a cooling mechanism. The Baylis Pain Management Generator-TD operates together with the OsteoCool™ Probe to deliver the RF energy. The Pump Connector Cable connects the Pump Unit to the Baylis Pain Management Generator-TD, which powers and controls the pump speed for delivery of cooling fluid during the procedure. The DuoCool™ Connector Cable connects the OsteoCool™ Probe to the Baylis Pain Management Generator-TD to transmit RF current and thermocouple signals to and from the electrodes of the probe.
The OsteoCool™ Probe is a single-use device that is inserted through the OsteoCool™ Introducer to the target site. The introducer is used for skin penetration and facilitates the navigation and accurate placement of the probe at the target site. The Tube Kit is used with the Pump Unit to circulate water internally to cool the probe while it delivers RF energy. The OsteoCool™ Probe includes a thermocouple to monitor and control the tissue temperature throughout the procedure.
