Not Found

No
The document describes a cryosurgical device for tissue ablation and does not mention any AI or ML components in the intended use, device description, or specific sections for AI/ML information.

Yes.
The device is clearly indicated for the ablation of various tissues, tumors, and lesions for therapeutic purposes across multiple medical specialties, including oncology, urology, dermatology, and general surgery.

No

The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the system "may be used to ablate prostatic tissue" or for "ablation of cancerous or malignant tissue," among other ablative uses. This indicates a therapeutic, not diagnostic, purpose. The "Device Description" also identifies it as "Cryosurgical Units, Cryogenic Surgical Device," which are used for treatment.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "Console with multiple ports and spray/closed probes," which are hardware components. The intended use also refers to "AccuProbe® devices," which are physical probes used for ablation.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended uses described are all related to the ablation or destruction of tissue within the body. This is a therapeutic or surgical intervention, not a diagnostic test performed on samples taken from the body.
  • Device Description: The device is described as "Cryosurgical Units, Cryogenic Surgical Device. Console with multiple ports and spray/closed probes." This description aligns with a device used for performing cryosurgery directly on a patient.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue samples, etc.) or providing diagnostic information based on such analysis.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device's function is to physically alter or destroy tissue within the body.

Dear Dr. Reinhart:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the devices referenced above and we have determined the devices are substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act). You may, therefore, market the devices, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

Please be advised that this substantial equivalence determination does not include an indication for cryoablation of the endometrium. The use of cryosurgery for endometrial ablation raises new types of safety and effectiveness questions when compared to currently identified predicate devices used for this purpose and therefore will require submission of a premarket approval application (PMA) to market for this indication.

Since, no data has been developed to establish the safety and effectiveness of this cryosurgical device for endometrial ablation, you may not market or promote such use until you have submitted such data and received clearance or approval for this claim.

Page 2 - Richard J. Reinhart, Ph.D.

If your devices are classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), they may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your devices can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the current Good Manufacturing Practice requirements , as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic (OS) inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your devices in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submissions does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations.

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your devices as described in your 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your devices to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your devices and thus, permits your devices to proceed to the market.

If you desire specific advice for your devices on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801 and additionally 809.10 for in vitro diagnostic devices), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4595. Additionally, for questions on the promotion and advertising of your devices, please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4639. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR 807.97). Other general information on your responsibilities under the Act may be obtained from the Division of Small Manufacturers Assistance at its toll-free number (800) 638-2041 or (301) 443-6597 or at its internet address "http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/dsmamain.html".
