Device Description

AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes a 510(k) premarket notification for a medical device, the Biolitec Inc.'s 100W Ceralas Diode 980nm Laser System (Model D100). This submission focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices rather than providing detailed acceptance criteria and a study to prove meeting those criteria in the context of, for example, a new diagnostic algorithm.

Here's an analysis of the provided information, noting what can and cannot be extracted based on the nature of a 510(k) submission for a laser device:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

As this is a 510(k) submission for a laser surgical system, the "acceptance criteria" are not in the form of diagnostic performance metrics (e.g., sensitivity, specificity, AUC) against a ground truth, but rather relate to safety and effectiveness compared to predicate devices. The performance reported is in terms of substantial equivalence.

Acceptance Criteria (Implied for 510(k) equivalence)Reported Device Performance (Ceralas D100)
Safety and Effectiveness is equivalent to predicate devices."Performance testing of the Ceralas D100 demonstrates no significant difference as compared to the cleared Ceralas D100 device (K050824)."
Technological Characteristics are substantially similar to predicate devices."The Ceralas D100 ... has the same technological characteristics as the cleared Ceralas D100 and substantially similar technological characteristics as compared to the INTERmedic Diode Laser."
Intended Uses and Indications for Use are the same or similar to predicate devices."The Ceralas D100 has the same intended uses and similar indications... as its predicate devices."
No New Issues of Safety or Effectiveness are raised by minor technological differences."The minor technological differences between the Ceralas D100 and its predicate devices raise no new issues of safety or effectiveness."

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

The document does not detail a "test set" in the context of a dataset for evaluating an algorithm. Instead, it refers to "performance testing." This testing is likely related to engineering specifications, electrical safety, EMC, and optical output characteristics of the laser system. The document does not specify:

  • Sample size for any human or animal studies, if they were conducted for performance validation.
  • Data provenance (e.g., country of origin, retrospective/prospective).

The statement "The performance and safety testing obtained for the cleared Ceralas D100 is fully applicable to the Ceralas D100" implies that the device is a re-submission or a minor modification of an already cleared device (K050824), and leverages previous testing data. Without access to K050824, specifics are unavailable.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications

This information is not applicable to this type of device submission. The Ceralas D100 is a surgical laser, not a diagnostic device requiring expert interpretation of results to establish a clinical ground truth.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

This information is not applicable for the same reasons as #3.

5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study was done, and its effect size

This information is not applicable. An MRMC study is relevant for diagnostic imaging devices where human readers interpret images with and without AI assistance. This document describes a surgical laser, not a diagnostic AI tool.

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

This information is not applicable. There is no "algorithm" in the sense of AI or diagnostic software for this device. It is a physical laser system.

7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

The "ground truth" for a surgical laser system isn't pathology, outcomes data, or expert consensus in the same way it would be for a diagnostic tool. Instead, the "ground truth" for a surgical laser's performance relates to its ability to perform its intended surgical functions (e.g., incision, excision, coagulation) safely and effectively, typically measured by engineering specifications, in-vitro testing, and potentially pre-clinical (animal) or limited clinical studies demonstrating the laser's physical effects on tissue. The document states "Performance data demonstrate that the Ceralas D100 is as safe and effective as the predicate devices," implying that the ground truth used was the established safety and effectiveness of the existing predicate devices.

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

This information is not applicable. There is no AI algorithm being "trained" for this device.

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

This information is not applicable for the same reasons as #8.

In summary:

This 510(k) submission for the Biolitec Inc.'s 100W Ceralas Diode 980nm Laser System (Model D100) demonstrates substantial equivalence to previously cleared predicate devices (K050824 and K053540). The "study" proving it meets "acceptance criteria" is the demonstration that its technological characteristics, intended uses, and safety/effectiveness profiles are comparable to these existing devices, without raising new questions of safety or effectiveness. The detailed elements requested in your prompt (like sample size for test/training sets, expert qualifications, adjudication methods, MRMC studies, standalone performance, etc.) are typically required for AI/ML-enabled diagnostic devices or complex new technologies, and are largely not relevant or provided for a surgical laser system 510(k) submission.

Dear Mr. Kahan:

This letter corrects our substantially equivalent letter of May 16, 2007.

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 (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 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.
