No
The document does not mention AI, ML, or any related concepts in the device description, intended use, or performance studies.

Yes
The device is described as treating various medical conditions, including unwanted hair, acne, and pigmented lesions, which are therapeutic interventions.

No

The device is described as treating conditions (hair removal, acne, pigmented lesions) rather than diagnosing them.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a system emitting light radiation and includes hardware components such as capacitors, a Xenon lamp, a control panel, and a handpiece.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections. They are used to diagnose, monitor, or screen for health issues.
  • Axiom System Function: The Axiom Intense Pulsed Light System is a device that emits light radiation and is used for direct treatment of the body (hair removal, acne treatment, lesion treatment). It does not analyze samples taken from the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended uses listed are all therapeutic or cosmetic treatments applied directly to the patient's skin.

Therefore, based on the provided information, the Axiom Intense Pulsed Light System is a therapeutic medical device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Dear Ms. Damsky:

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.
