Intended Use

The THD Anopress device must be used exclusively to assess the average sphincter tone due to the pressure exerted by the muscles in the anal canal on the specially designed THD Probes. THD Anopress must only be used by appropriately trained medical staff. Furthermore, the THD SensyProbe enables evaluation of rectal sensitivity and capacity and the ano-rectal inhibitory reflex through connection to a syringe and filling of the balloon on the probe with air. The THD Anopress with THD SensyProbe is intended to be used in adults only.

Device Story

THD Anopress with THD SensyProbe is a handheld, portable anorectal manometry system for clinical use by trained medical staff. The device consists of a main unit with a keyboard and display, and disposable air-charged probes (THD PressProbe or THD SensyProbe). The THD PressProbe measures anal sphincter pressure (resting, squeeze, endurance, strain) via an air-filled membrane. The THD SensyProbe includes an additional distal balloon, manually inflated via syringe, to evaluate rectal sensitivity, capacity, and the recto-anal inhibitory reflex (RAIR). Pressure data is transmitted wirelessly in real-time to the main unit or an optional PC running dedicated software. The system provides real-time visualization of pressure parameters, aiding clinicians in diagnosing functional anorectal and pelvic disorders. By quantifying sphincter tone and rectal sensation, the device assists in clinical decision-making for patients with motility issues.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical trials were conducted for this submission. Substantial equivalence is supported by non-clinical bench testing, including biocompatibility (ISO 10993), electrical safety (IEC 60601-1), EMC (IEC 60601-1-2), and mechanical performance testing (leak, burst, tensile, and repeated use testing). Clinical literature was cited to support the clinical relevance of the indications for use (anorectal manometry for functional disorders).

Technological Characteristics

Handheld manometry system; air-charged membrane and balloon sensing principle. Materials: Poly-urethane (membrane), C-Flex SEBS (distal balloon). Connectivity: Wireless real-time data transmission; optional PC interface via Bluetooth dongle. Software: Embedded firmware and optional PC software. Sterilization: Non-sterile. Standards: ISO 10993, IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, IEC 62304.

Indications for Use

Indicated for adults requiring anorectal pressure studies and evaluation of functional rectal and pelvic diseases, including assessment of sphincter tone, rectal sensitivity, rectal capacity, and the ano-rectal inhibitory reflex.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

Device Description THD Anopress with THD SensyProbe is a handheld, portable anorectal manometry device for its use on patients requiring anorectal pressure studies and evaluation of functional rectal and pelvic diseases. {4}------------------------------------------------ The subject device consists of two main components: - . THD Anopress: This is the main unit with a keyboard for the selection of input command for pressure measurement and display for the visualization of detected pressure parameters in real time; - . THD Probes, grouped in THD PressProbe and THD SensyProbe - THD PressProbe is non-sterile disposable probe to be connected via the dedicated Luer-Lock connector to the THD Anopress. The probe is charged with air by the pump contained into the THD Anopress main unit and then is introduced into the anal canal of patient for the detection of pressure. - THD SensyProbe keeps the same characteristics of the THD PressProbe but it is O additionally featured with a balloon positioned on the top of the introducer that is designed to be filled with air by the mean of a second inflation line and a Luer-Lock connection with a syringe. The inflation of the balloon with air allows the evaluation of the sensation thresholds of the lower rectum and to assess and trigger what is known as Recto Anal Inhibitory Reflex (RAIR). THD Anopress may be used in conjunction with a PC for data storage (not provided with THD Anopress). For this purpose, the PC requires installation of a dedicated program (Anopress SW) and the insertion of the Bluetooth Dongle accessory into the USB port. The Bluetooth dongle as well as Anopress SW are optionally provided by THD SpA. THD PressProbe membrane has a diameter varying from 14,4 mm (empty membrane) to 16,6 mm (membrane inflated to 150 mmHg). THD PressProbe is inflated to 150 mmHg, then it is inserted in the anal canal so that the sphincter exerts a compression on the membrane until 390 mmHg. THD SensyProbe membrane has the same diameter and performances as the THD PressProbe. The additional balloon positioned on the top of the introducer reaches a diameter of 70 mm when inflated with 200 ml of air. The allowed maximum inflation volume for distal end balloon is 180 ml of air. ### 5. Indications for Use The THD Anopress device must be used exclusively to assess the average sphincter tone due to the pressure exerted by the muscles in the anal canal on the specially designed THD Probes. THD Anopress must only be used by appropriately trained medical staff. Furthermore, the THD SensyProbe enables evaluation of rectal sensitivity and capacity and the anorectal inhibitory reflex through connection to a syringe and filling of the balloon on the probe with air.
