Intended Use
Dilation of the anal sphincter and canal for the relief of hemorrhoidal pain and itching, reduction of bleeding, and promotion of healing of inflamed hemorrhoidal tissues.
Device Description
The Anokryo Dilator consists of a narrow tapered shaft approximately 2.75 inch long and 0.5 inch wide. The hollow interior of the shaft is filled with hydroxyethylcellulose solution before the shaft is molded to a flange knob which serves as a handle The shaft and flange are composed of polyethylene. The device is supplied clean and non-sterile in a plastic storage container and a water-soluble lubricant gel. Prior to use, the rod is stored in its container for 1-2 hours and then moistened with the lubricant gel. A maximum low temperature of -15 degrees C is obtained and sustained for 10 minutes. The device is easily cleaned with detergent and water and stored in its container for reuse.

No
The device description and intended use do not mention any computational or data-driven components, focusing solely on a physical, cryotherapy-based mechanism. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" field is explicitly marked as "Not Found".

Yes
The intended use clearly states "relief of hemorrhoidal pain and itching, reduction of bleeding, and promotion of healing of inflamed hemorrhoidal tissues," which are therapeutic outcomes.

No
The device is described as a dilator for the relief of hemorrhoidal pain and itching, reduction of bleeding, and promotion of healing, which are therapeutic functions, not diagnostic ones. It is used to treat a condition, not to identify or monitor it.

No

The device description clearly outlines a physical device made of polyethylene with a hollow interior filled with a solution, designed for insertion and cooling. This is a hardware device, not software.

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 physical dilation of the anal sphincter and canal to relieve symptoms and promote healing of hemorrhoidal tissues. This is a direct physical intervention on the body.
  • Device Description: The device is a physical dilator that is cooled and inserted into the body. It does not involve the examination of specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information based on in vitro testing.

IVD devices are specifically designed to perform tests on samples taken from the body, not to be inserted into the body for therapeutic or physical purposes like this dilator.

V. INTENDED USE

Dilation of the anal sphincter and canal for the relief of hemorrhoidal pain and itching, reduction of bleeding, and promotion of healing of inflamed hemorrhoidal tissues.

COMPARISON TO PREDICATE DEVICES VI.

The Anokryo Dilator is similar in design and identical in function and intended use to legally marketed rectal dilators such as the Anurex and Inamed Rhemo-D devices.

Accordingly, MK Conquest International, Inc. has concluded that the Anokryo Dilator is safe and effective for its intended use and performs at least as well as the legally marketed predicate devices.
