Device Description
The moorLDLS laser Doppler line scanner is a device for imaging blood flow in the microcirculation. It uses the established laser Doppler technique to quantify movement of blood cells beneath the skin surface. Unlike the predicate device moorLDI2-IR laser Doppler imager, which use a single low power infrared laser beam, the moorLDLS line scanner sweeps a line of laser light across the tissue to build up a colour coded image of blood flow rapidly.
More Information

Not Found

No
The description focuses on the laser Doppler technology and comparison to a predicate device, with no mention of AI or ML.

No
The device is intended for blood flow measurements, which is diagnostic, not therapeutic.

Yes

Explanation: The device is intended "for blood flow measurements in the microcirculation," which directly relates to assessing a physiological function to aid in the diagnosis or monitoring of medical conditions.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "device for imaging blood flow" and uses a "line of laser light" which are hardware components.

Based on the provided information, the moorLDLS Laser Doppler Line Scanner is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for "blood flow measurements in the microcirculation" and "imaging blood flow in the microcirculation." This involves measuring physiological parameters directly from the living body (in vivo).
  • Device Description: The description confirms it uses the laser Doppler technique to quantify movement of blood cells beneath the skin surface. This is a non-invasive, in vivo measurement.
  • Anatomical Site: The anatomical site is "beneath the skin surface," which is part of the living body.

In Vitro Diagnostics (IVDs) are devices intended for use in the examination of specimens derived from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, outside of the body (in vitro) to provide information for diagnostic purposes.

Since the moorLDLS device operates directly on the living body to measure blood flow, it falls under the category of an in vivo diagnostic device, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Summary of Performance Studies

In order to evaluate the performance of the moorLDLS laser Doppler line scanner. and determine its substantial equivalence to the predicate device moorLDI2-IR, a set of comparison tests has been carried out. These include flow model and image scan using both devices. The results suggest that moorLDLS line scanner has achieved the same performance as the predicate device moorLDI2-IR laser Doppler imager.

The moorLDLS line scanner has been designed and tested for compliance with the standards for electrical safety, laser radiation safety, electromagnetic compatibility and programmable medical device.

Description of the Device 7.1

The moorLDLS laser Doppler line scanner is a device for imaging blood flow in the microcirculation. It uses the established laser Doppler technique to quantify movement of blood cells beneath the skin surface. Unlike the predicate device moorLDI2-IR laser Doppler imager, which use a single low power infrared laser beam, the moorLDLS line scanner sweeps a line of laser light across the tissue to build up a colour coded image of blood flow rapidly.

7.2 Intended Use

The moorLDLS Laser Doppler Line Scanner is intended for blood flow measurements in the microcirculation.

Technological Characteristics 7.3

The operation and design of the moorLDLS line scanner and moorLDI2-IR laser Doppler image are very similar. They both have the same intended use. Both devices rely on the same physical principle, i.e. the laser Doppler principle, to measure the tissue blood perfusion.

The main difference between two devices is the scanning method. The moorLDI2-IR device scans a low power laser beam over the tissue surface in a raster pattern to produce a two dimensional colour coded blood perfusion image. while the moorLDLS line scanner uses a low power laser line to sweep across the tissue for rapid scanning.

7.4 Performance Data

In order to evaluate the performance of the moorLDLS laser Doppler line scanner. and determine its substantial equivalence to the predicate device moorLDI2-IR, a set of comparison tests has been carried out. These include flow model and image scan using both devices. The results suggest that moorLDLS line scanner has achieved the same performance as the predicate device moorLDI2-IR laser Doppler imager.

The moorLDLS line scanner has been designed and tested for compliance with the standards for electrical safety, laser radiation safety, electromagnetic compatibility and programmable medical device.

Conclusions 7.5

From the description of the technological characteristics and the performance data, it can be concluded that the moorLDLS laser Doppler line scanner is substantial equivalence to the predicate device moorLDI2-IR laser Doppler imager in terms of effectiveness and safety.
