Device Description
The D.O.R.C. Disposable Cryo Probe is a single-use, handheld medical device intended for use in combination with the Cryostar Cryosurgical System to perform ophthalmic surgery. When the foot pedal of the CryoStar Console is pressed, high pressure gas (CO2 or N2O) is supplied via a small aperture to target tissue.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a mechanical cryosurgical probe and system. There is no mention of any software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI or ML. The performance studies are bench tests of physical characteristics (freeze/defrost performance).

Yes
The device is described as performing ophthalmic surgery, including cryopexy for retinal detachment and treatment for glaucoma, which are therapeutic interventions.

No

The device is described as a surgical probe intended for therapeutic use in ophthalmic surgery, not for diagnostic purposes.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "single-use, handheld medical device" and describes its physical mechanism of action (supplying high-pressure gas via a small aperture). This indicates 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:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device is for performing ophthalmic surgery on the posterior segments of the eye. This is a surgical procedure performed directly on the patient's body.
  • Device Description: The description details a handheld surgical device that uses gas to create a cold tip for tissue manipulation during surgery. This is a surgical instrument, not a device used to examine specimens in vitro (outside the body).
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) or providing diagnostic information based on such analysis.

IVD devices are specifically designed to examine specimens obtained from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device does not fit that description.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

Although animal and clinical performance testing was not required for the D.O.R.C. Disposable Cryo Probe to demonstrate efficacy, safety and substantial equivalence to predicate devices, a variety of laboratory (bench) performance tests have been conducted including freeze and defrost performance and compatibility testing with the Cryostar 1500.III Cryosurgical System. The 'freeze performance' test showed that both the Disposable Cryo Probe (1540.D) and the Reusable Cryoprobe (1540) produced an ice ball of on average 4.9mm after 10s operation when immersed in water of 20℃ with both CO2 and N20. The 'defrost performance' test showed that both the Disposable Cryo Probe (1540.D) and the Reusable Cryoprobe (1540) released the ice ball of at least 4mm within 5s after activation of the defrost function with both CO2 and N2O. Therefore it was concluded that the Disposable Cryoprobe (1540.D) is equivalent to the Reusable Cryoprobe (1540). Both the 'freeze performance' test and the 'defrost performance' test were performed using the Cryostar (1500.III), showing the compatibility of the Disposable Cryoprobe (1540.D) with this Cryosurgical System.

Performance Data

The following performance data were provided in support of the substantial equivalence determination.

Biocompatibility testing

The biocompatibility evaluation of the D.O.R.C. Disposable Cryo Probe was conducted in accordance with the FDA Blue Book Memorandum #G95-1 "Use of International Standard ISO-10993, 'Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices Part 1: Evaluation and Testing, " May 1, 1995, and International Standard ISO 10993-1 "Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices — Part 1: Evaluation and Testing Within a Risk Management Process," as recognized by FDA.

Performance Testing

Although animal and clinical performance testing was not required for the D.O.R.C. Disposable Cryo Probe to demonstrate efficacy, safety and substantial equivalence to predicate devices, a variety of laboratory (bench) performance tests have been conducted including freeze and defrost performance and compatibility testing with the Cryostar 1500.III Cryosurgical System. The 'freeze performance' test showed that both the Disposable Cryo Probe (1540.D) and the Reusable Cryoprobe (1540) produced an ice ball of on average 4.9mm after 10s operation when immersed in water of 20℃ with both CO2 and N20. The 'defrost performance' test showed that both the Disposable Cryo Probe (1540.D) and the Reusable Cryoprobe (1540) released the ice ball of at least 4mm within 5s after activation of the defrost function with both CO2 and N2O. Therefore it was concluded that the Disposable Cryoprobe (1540.D) is equivalent to the Reusable Cryoprobe (1540). Both the 'freeze performance' test and the 'defrost performance' test were performed using the Cryostar (1500.III), showing the compatibility of the Disposable Cryoprobe (1540.D) with this Cryosurgical System.
