Intended Use

The Velure Family of Diode Lasers are intended for use in dermatology, hair removal, oral, periodontal and surgical applications that require ablation, vaporization, excision, incision and coagulation of soft tissue.

Velure S5 532nm (Green) Diode Laser Applications: Vascular Lesions, Pigmented Lesions

Velure S8/15, Velure S8/30 and Velure S800 808nm Diode Laser Applications: Vascular Lesions, Unwanted Hair Removal

Velure S9/15, Velure S9/30 980mm Diode Laser Applications: Surgical Cut and coagulate General Surgery GYN ENT Neuro Urgology

Velure S9/7D and Velure S9/15D 980nm Diode Laser Applications: Oral and Periodontal Surgery, Bleaching (tooth whitening)

Device Description

The Velure Family of Diode Lasers emit a beam of coherent light in either continuous wave or pulse mode at the following wavelengths: 523nm - Velure S5, 808nm - Velure S8/15, Velure S8/30 and Velure S800, 980nm - Velure S9/7D, Velure S9/15, Velure S9/15D and Velure S9/30. Each laser consists of a self-contained console, an SMA fiber delivery system with handpiece, a footswitch, safety goggles and warning label set. The main console contains a Diode laser, a 635nm pilot laser, micro-controller, air cooling system and power supply. The console has an on-off key switch and emergency stop push button. The SMA fiber delivery system connects the console to a variety of fiber optic handpieces and scanner (Velure S5 only).

AI/ML Overview

The provided document is a 510(k) summary for a medical device called the "Velure Family of Diode Lasers and Delivery Device Accessories." This type of submission to the FDA is typically used to demonstrate substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device, rather than proving a device meets specific performance acceptance criteria through a clinical study with detailed statistical outcomes.

Based on the content of the document, here's an analysis of the requested information:

1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance

The document does not provide a table of acceptance criteria or specific performance data from a clinical trial that would typically be used to demonstrate the device meets such criteria. Instead, it relies on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices. The "Performance Data" section explicitly states: "None provided."

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

No test set sample size is mentioned because no clinical performance study demonstrating acceptance criteria was conducted or provided in this summary.

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

Not applicable, as no ground truth establishment for a test set is described.

4. Adjudication method for the test set

Not applicable, as no test set requiring adjudication is described.

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. This device is a laser system, not an AI-assisted diagnostic or imaging device used by readers. No MRMC study was conducted or is relevant.

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

Not applicable. This device is a laser system, not an algorithm.

7. The type of ground truth used

Not applicable, as no ground truth for a clinical study is described. The "ground truth" for this 510(k) summary is based on the performance and safety profiles of the predicate devices.

8. The sample size for the training set

Not applicable, as no training set for an algorithm is described.

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

Not applicable, as no training set for an algorithm is described.


Summary of the Document's Approach to Acceptance:

The "Velure Family of Diode Lasers and Delivery Device Accessories" received a 510(k) clearance by demonstrating substantial equivalence to existing legally marketed predicate devices, specifically the Adept Ultralite 532 (K042496) and the Intermedic Diode Laser Family (K053540).

The key "proof" of acceptance in this context is the FDA's letter stating: "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..."

The document explicitly states:

  • "Performance Data: None provided" (page 2)
  • "Clinical Data: None provided" (page 2)

Therefore, the acceptance of this device for marketing in the US was based on a comparison of its design, materials, intended use, and technological characteristics to existing predicate devices, rather than on new clinical studies showing specific performance metrics against pre-defined acceptance criteria. The assumption is that if it's substantially equivalent to already approved devices, it is equally safe and effective.

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.
