Device Description
The SLIM Evolution Family of CO2 Lasers emit a beam of coherent light at the wavelength 10.6 microns in either continuous wave or pulse mode. Each laser consists of a self-contained console, an articulated arm delivery system, a footswitch, safety goggles and warning label set. The main console contains a DC-excited sealedoff CO2 gas tube, micro-controller, articulated arm mount, internal closed circuit cooling system and power supply. The console has an on-off key switch and emergency stop push button. The articulated arm connects the console to focusing handpieces, waveguides, scanner and micromanipulator delivery accessories. Refer to the enclosed brochure and instruction manual for complete published information.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a standard CO2 laser system with a microcontroller for controlling the laser parameters. There is no mention of AI or ML in the intended use, device description, or any of the other sections.

Yes
The device is described as a CO2 laser intended for various surgical applications involving the ablation, vaporization, excision, incision, and coagulation of soft tissue, which signifies a direct medical intervention for treatment purposes.

No

This device is a CO2 laser system intended for surgical applications that require ablation, vaporization, excision, incision, and coagulation of soft tissue. These are all therapeutic actions, not diagnostic ones.

No

The device description explicitly details hardware components such as a console, articulated arm, footswitch, safety goggles, and a CO2 gas tube. It is a physical laser system, not software only.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes surgical applications involving the ablation, vaporization, excision, incision, and coagulation of soft tissue. These are direct surgical procedures performed on the patient's body.
  • Device Description: The device description details a CO2 laser system designed to emit a light beam for surgical purposes. It describes the physical components of the laser and delivery system.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue samples) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.

IVD devices are used in vitro (outside the body) to analyze biological samples. This device is used in vivo (inside or on the body) for surgical treatment.

Dear Mr. Howes:

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 the

quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801), please contact the Office of Compliance at (240) 276-0115. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21CFR Part 807.97).
