Intended Use

The CoolTouch LC160 CTEV Nd:YAG Laser System with the JouleTraker accessory is indicated for the treatment of reflux of great and small saphenous veins associated with varicose veins and varicosities.

Device Description

The CoolTouch Nd:YAG Laser Systems are Nd:YAG lasers producing laser emission at 1320 nm. The lasers consist of a cabinet, which houses the power supply, cooling system, microcontroller and the laser, and the fiber optic. Accessories include a footswitch and a fiber optic pull-back device, the JouleTraker.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text is for a 510(k) Premarket Notification for a laser system and explicitly states that no clinical performance data was submitted. Therefore, the device has not been "proven to meet acceptance criteria" through a study in this submission.

Based on the information provided in K062210:

1. Table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance:

Since "No clinical performance data was submitted," there is no table of acceptance criteria and reported device performance to present. The submission relies solely on substantial equivalence to a predicate device.

2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance:

Not applicable. No clinical performance data was submitted.

3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts:

Not applicable. No clinical performance data was submitted.

4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set:

Not applicable. No clinical performance data was submitted.

5. If a multi reader multi case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance:

Not applicable. No clinical performance data was submitted. This device is a laser system, not an AI diagnostic tool involving human readers.

6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:

Not applicable. No clinical performance data was submitted. This device is a laser system.

7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc):

Not applicable. No clinical performance data was submitted.

8. The sample size for the training set:

Not applicable. No clinical performance data was submitted. This device is a laser system, not an AI model requiring a training set.

9. How the ground truth for the training set was established:

Not applicable. No clinical performance data was submitted.

§ 878.4810 Laser surgical instrument for use in general and plastic surgery and in dermatology.

(a)
Identification. (1) A carbon dioxide laser for use in general surgery and in dermatology is a laser device intended to cut, destroy, or remove tissue by light energy emitted by carbon dioxide.(2) An argon laser for use in dermatology is a laser device intended to destroy or coagulate tissue by light energy emitted by argon.
(b)
Classification. (1) Class II.(2) Class I for special laser gas mixtures used as a lasing medium for this class of lasers. The devices subject to this paragraph (b)(2) are exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter, subject to the limitations in § 878.9.
