AI/ML (Artificial Intelligence / Machine Learning)

No
The summary describes a fiberoptic laser energy delivery system and does not mention any AI or ML components or functionalities.

Therapeutic

Yes
The device is used to deliver laser energy for various surgical procedures, which are forms of medical treatment aimed at improving or restoring health, thereby classifying it as a therapeutic device.

Diagnostic

No
The device is described as a system designed to deliver laser energy for surgical procedures (e.g., ablating, incising, excising, vaporization, and coagulation of soft tissues), not for diagnosing conditions.

SaMD (Software as a Medical Device)

No

The device description explicitly details physical components like optical fibers, connectors, and a laser box, indicating it is a hardware-based system for energy delivery.

IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic)

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

Here's why:

Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes the device as a system for delivering laser energy to perform surgical procedures on various soft tissues within the human body. This is a direct intervention on a living organism.
Device Description: The description details a fiber optic cable designed to deliver laser radiation for surgical purposes.
Lack of IVD Characteristics: An IVD device is intended for use in vitro (outside the body) to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue samples) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device does not perform any such analysis of biological specimens.

The MaxiFlex - Fiberoptic Energy Delivery System is a surgical tool used in vivo (within the body) for therapeutic purposes (ablating, incising, excising, vaporization, and coagulation of soft tissues).

Device Description

The delivery fiber cables, consist of multi-mode, single core optical fibers available in 200, 400, and 1000um diameters. The standard SMA 905 fiber connector terminates one end of the delivery fiber, which is attached to the SMA union at the rear panel of the laser box. The fiber is stripped of its protective jacket in accordance with the laser manufacturers instructions and is cleaved to provide laser radiation output.
