The Wave Form Manufacturing PGS Fiber is indicated for use in medicine and surgery in the following specialties: Urology, Pulmonology, Arthroscopy, Podiatry, Orthopedics, Lithotripsy, ENT Surgery, Neurosurgery, Gastroenterology, Plastic Surgery, Dermatology, Radiology, Gynecology, and General and Vascular Surgery.
Device Description
The Wave Form Manufacturing Prolase General Shaped (PGS) Fiber is a fiber optic laser delivery system consisting of a 3 meter long silica fiber, clad in fluorinated doped silica, buffered with a fluorinated acrylate and a shaped tip. As an integral part of a laser system, the PGS fiber may be used for a wide variety of surgical procedures.
More Information

Not Found

No
The document describes a fiber optic laser delivery system and its intended uses and does not mention any AI or ML components or capabilities.

Yes
The device is described as a fiber optic laser delivery system intended for vaporization, cutting, ablation, and coagulation of soft tissue in various medical and surgical specialties. These are therapeutic actions performed directly on the patient's body.

No
The device description and intended use clearly state that it is a surgical tool used for vaporization, cutting, ablation, and coagulation of soft tissue, not for diagnosis.

No

The device description clearly states it is a fiber optic laser delivery system consisting of a physical fiber, cladding, buffer, and shaped tip, which are hardware components.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Function: The Wave Form Manufacturing Prolase General Shaped Fiber is a laser delivery system used for surgical procedures on soft tissue within the body (vaporization, cutting, ablation, coagulation). It is used in conjunction with or without endoscopic equipment or for open surgery.
  • Lack of Specimen Analysis: The description does not mention the device being used to analyze any biological specimens taken from the patient. Its function is directly on the tissue itself.

Therefore, the device's intended use and description clearly indicate it is a surgical tool, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Technological Characteristics and Performance Data

Design changes made to the Wave Form Manufacturing PGS Fiber are the addition of an internal proprietary quartz sleeve reflector which protects the laser focusing lens from back splatter of vaporized metal from the connector ferrule and the addition of an optical secondary memory cladding to help guide a steerable endoscope with the optical fiber.

Bench testing was performed to demonstrate that the device will perform as intended.
