More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a laser system and associated accessories for endovascular procedures, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities in the intended use, device description, or performance studies.

Yes
The device is intended for endovascular coagulation of blood vessels, specifically the greater saphenous vein, to treat superficial vein reflux, which is a therapeutic intervention.

No
The device is described as being used for endovascular coagulation, which is a therapeutic procedure, not a diagnostic one. No diagnostic function is mentioned in the "Intended Use/Indications for Use" or "Device Description" sections.

No

The device description explicitly lists multiple hardware components, including needles, introducer sheaths, guidewires, and surgical accessories, in addition to the laser system.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is "for endovascular coagulation of blood vessels," specifically the "greater saphenous vein in the thigh." This describes a therapeutic procedure performed directly on the patient's body.
  • Device Description: The components listed (needles, introducer sheaths, guidewires, etc.) are all instruments used for accessing and treating blood vessels within the body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: An IVD device is used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) outside of the body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device does not perform any such analysis of specimens.

Therefore, this device is a therapeutic medical device used for a surgical procedure, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Performance Data

The device complies with the following voluntary consensus standards: 21 C.F.R. §§ 1040.10 & 1040.11; ANSI/AAMI ES1; IEC 601-1; IEC 601-2-22; EN 60825-1, and ANSI/AAMI/ISO 10993-7.

Substantial Equivalence

The Ceralas D 980 nm Laser System with ELVeS has the same intended use and indications for use as the cleared Ceralas D 980 nm Laser System and Ceralas D 810 nm Diode Laser System and the same technological characteristics as the cleared Ceralas D 810 and the cleared Ceralas D 980. The technological differences between the Ceralas D 980 with ELVeS kit and the cleared Ceralas D 980 is the addition of the ELVeS kit, which is cleared for use with the Ceralas D 810 for the same indication. Thus, the ELVeS kit is not a new technological characteristic for diode lasers for endovascular coagulation of the greater saphenous vein in the thigh in patients with superficial vein reflux. Thus, the Ceralas D 980 with ELVeS is substantially equivalent to its predicate devices.

Dear Mr. Kahan:

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 (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. 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.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such 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.

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); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in
