No
The document describes a cryoablation system that uses cold temperatures to destroy tissue. There is no mention of AI or ML in the intended use, device description, or performance studies. The testing focuses on functional and safety aspects of the cryoablation process itself.
Yes
The device is described as a surgical system intended for "therapeutic" procedures such as the "ablation" or "destruction" of tissue, tumors, and lesions for various medical conditions, including cancer and pain management.
No
The device description and intended use clearly state that the system is used for freezing/ablating tissue and destroying or ablating lesions, tumors, and other growths, which are therapeutic actions, not diagnostic ones. It monitors temperature in surrounding tissue, but this is for safety and efficacy of the destructive procedure, not for disease detection or characterization.
No
The device description explicitly states it is a "mobile console system" and includes "associated accessories that include cryoprobes to deliver cold temperatures to the targeted tissue, and TempProbe® devices to monitor temperatures". This indicates significant hardware components beyond just software.
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 to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- Device Function: The Cryocare CS™ Surgical System is a surgical device designed to freeze/ablate tissue directly within the body using extreme cold temperatures. It is used during surgical procedures to destroy targeted tissue.
- Lack of Sample Analysis: The description does not mention the device analyzing any samples taken from the body. Its function is to act on the tissue within the body.
Therefore, the Cryocare CS™ Surgical System falls under the category of a surgical device used for therapeutic purposes (tissue ablation), not an in vitro diagnostic device used for analyzing samples for diagnostic information.
