Intended Use
The IntelliBlate Microwave Ablation System is intended for coagulation (ablation) of soft tissue. The IntelliBlate Microwave Ablation System is not intended for use in cardiac procedures. The IntelliBlate Ximitry Probe Assembly, used with the IntelliBlate Microwave Ablation System is intended for coagulation (ablation) of soft tissue. The IntelliBlate Ximitry Probe Assembly is not intended for use in cardiac procedures.
Device Story
Microwave ablation system for soft tissue coagulation; utilizes 2.45 GHz microwave energy to induce cellular death via coagulation necrosis. System comprises tabletop console with integrated peristaltic pump for coolant delivery and sterile, single-use disposable Ximitry Probe Assemblies. Operated by clinicians in facility settings. Console features graphical user interface (GUI) and touchscreen for monitoring and control; supports two independent ablation channels. Probe assembly integrates power cable and coolant tubing (supply/return) into single bundle; includes ceramic trocar tip and multiple thermocouples for temperature monitoring. System provides ablation, track ablation, and needle lock modes. Output power up to 170W (single) or 2x 150W (double). Safety features include automatic shutdown upon temperature limit or high reflected power. Output affects clinical decision-making by enabling targeted tissue necrosis; benefits patients by providing minimally invasive soft tissue ablation.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Evidence consists of non-clinical bench testing (functional, ablation performance in ex-vivo porcine liver/kidney/muscle, reliability, electrical safety, EMC), GLP animal studies (porcine soft tissue), and systematic literature review of predicate device performance (1,628 patients, 2,438 tumors).
Technological Characteristics
2.45 GHz microwave generator; tabletop console; peristaltic pump cooling; sterile ETO-sterilized single-use probes (fiberglass shaft, ceramic trocar tip). Connectivity: USB. Standards: IEC 60601-1, 60601-1-6, 60601-2-6, 60601-1-2. Biocompatibility: ISO 10993-1. Packaging: ISO 11607-1/2.
Indications for Use
Indicated for coagulation (ablation) of soft tissue. Not for use in cardiac procedures.
Regulatory Classification

Dear Lynn Allman:
We have reviewed your section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate 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 (the Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database available at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. 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 note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
{1}------------------------------------------------
Additional information about changes that may require a new premarket notification are provided in the FDA guidance documents entitled "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Change to an Existing Device" (https://www.fda.gov/media/99812/download) and "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Software Change to an Existing Device" (https://www.fda.gov/media/99785/download).
Your device is also subject to, among other requirements, the Quality System (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820), which includes, but is not limited to, 21 CFR 820.30. Design controls; 21 CFR 820.90. Nonconforming product; and 21 CFR 820.100, Corrective and preventive action. Please note that regardless of whether a change requires premarket review, the QS regulation requires device manufacturers to review and approve changes to device design and production (21 CFR 820.30 and 21 CFR 820.70) and document changes and approvals in the device master record (21 CFR 820.181).
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR Part 803) for devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR Part 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/combination-products/guidance-regulatory-information/postmarketing-safety-reportingcombination-products); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR Part 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR Parts 1000-1050.
Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR 807.97).
