The Cynosure PhotoGenica V-Star laser is a pulse dye laser, having an organic dye as a lasing medium.
Laser activation is by footswitch or finger switch. Overall weight of the laser is 285lbs, and the size is 44×19"×24" (HxWxD).
Electrical requirement is 220 VAC. 30A. 50-60 Hz. single phase.
The provided document is a 510(k) summary for the Cynosure PhotoGenica V-Star Laser. It explicitly states:
- Nonclinical Performance Data: none
- Clinical Performance Data: none
Therefore, based on the provided information, there is no acceptance criteria or study data described to demonstrate the device meets any specific performance criteria. The device's clearance is based on substantial equivalence to a predicate device (Cynosure PhotoGenica VLS-Star Laser), not on new performance data.
Since no performance study was conducted or presented in this 510(k) summary, the following points cannot be addressed:
- Table of acceptance criteria and reported device performance: Not applicable.
- Sample size used for the test set and data provenance: Not applicable.
- Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and qualifications: Not applicable.
- Adjudication method for the test set: Not applicable.
- Multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study: Not applicable.
- Standalone (algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) study: Not applicable.
- Type of ground truth used: Not applicable.
- Sample size for the training set: Not applicable.
- How the ground truth for the training set was established: Not applicable.
