More Information

No
The summary describes a laser system with standard components and does not mention any AI or ML capabilities.

Yes

The device is indicated for "laser-assisted lipolysis," which is a medical procedure aimed at treating a health condition (unwanted fat), thus classifying it as a therapeutic device.

No

The device is described as a surgical laser system indicated for laser-assisted lipolysis, which is a therapeutic procedure, not a diagnostic one. It removes fat rather than identifying a condition.

No

The device description explicitly states it consists of a cabinet housing hardware components like a power supply, cooling system, microcontroller, laser, foot switch, and fiber optic. This is a hardware device with embedded software, not a software-only medical device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is "laser-assisted lipolysis," which is a surgical procedure performed on a patient's body. IVDs are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) outside of the body to diagnose diseases or conditions.
  • Device Description: The description details a surgical laser system with components like a power supply, cooling system, laser, foot switch, fiber optic, and microcannula setup. These are all components of a device used for direct treatment on a patient.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, diagnostic purposes, or any of the typical characteristics associated with IVD devices.

Therefore, the CoolTouch Model NS160 CoolLipo Nd: Y AG Surgical Laser is a therapeutic surgical device, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Dear Ms. Vollrath:

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 Center for Devices and Radiological Health's (CDRH's) Office of Compliance at (240) 276-0115. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21CFR Part 807.97). For questions regarding postmarket surveillance, please contact CDRH's Office of Surveillance and Biometric's (OSB's) Division of Protmarket, Surveillance at (240) 276-3474.
