AI/MLSaMDIVD (In Vitro Diagnostic)TherapeuticDiagnosticis PCCP Authorized
Intended Use
The TUNA System is indicated for the treatment of symptoms due to urinary outflow obstruction secondary to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) in men over the age of 50 with prostate sizes between 20 and 50 cc.
Device Description
The TUNA® System consists of the TUNA® 3 Catheter, the VIDAMED Model 7205 RF Generator, the VIDAMED Return Electrode, the VIDAMED Rectal Monitoring Tape, and the TUNA® Optics. The electrosurgical generator is capable of delivering up to 30W (15W / channel) of power and is designed for use with VIDAMED accessory electrodes including the TUNA® 3 Catheter. When used with VIDAMED accessory electrodes, the electrosurgical generator is capable of reading temperature from thermocouple sensors within the electrode and controlling power output to the tissue.
More Information

No
The summary describes a radiofrequency ablation system with temperature feedback control, which is a standard control mechanism and does not indicate the use of AI/ML. There are no mentions of AI, ML, image processing, or data sets for training/testing.

Yes
The device is indicated for the "treatment of symptoms due to urinary outflow obstruction secondary to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH)" which signifies a therapeutic purpose.

No

The description clearly states the TUNA System is "indicated for the treatment of symptoms due to urinary outflow obstruction secondary to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH)," indicating a therapeutic, rather than diagnostic, purpose.

No

The device description explicitly lists multiple hardware components including a catheter, RF generator, return electrode, rectal monitoring tape, and optics.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for the treatment of symptoms due to urinary outflow obstruction secondary to BPH. IVDs are used for the diagnosis or monitoring of diseases or conditions using samples from the human body.
  • Device Description: The device is an electrosurgical system that delivers radiofrequency energy to tissue. This is a therapeutic intervention, not a diagnostic test.
  • Lack of IVD characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) or providing diagnostic information.

Therefore, the TUNA System is a therapeutic device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.
