Intended Use
The Ceralas E15/980, E30/980 is intended for delivery of laser light to soft tissue in the contact or non-contact mode during surgical procedures, including via endoscopes, introducers, or catheters. The Ceralas E15/980, E30/980 is generally indicated for incision, excision, vaporization, ablation, hemostasis, or coagulation of soft tissue in ear, nose and throat and oral surgery (otolaryngology), dental procedures, arthroscopy, gastroenterology, general surgery, dermatology, plastic surgery, podiatry, urology, gynecology, neurosurgery (peripheral nervous system), pulmonary surgery, cardiothoracic surgery, and ophthalmology. This Ceralas E15/980, E30/980 is specifically indicated for hemostasis and coagulation of soft tissue (including cardiac tissue) and laser assisted lipolysis.
Device Description
The Ceralas E15/980, E30/980 has the same technological characteristics as the cleared Ceralas D. The laser has an additionally incorporated RFID sensor/antenna in the fiber port so as to recognize fibers with an RFID chip in their connectors. The fibers used with the Ceralas E have been previously cleared by FDA (K951775, K964497, K060050) for use with its other laser products and have an RFID chip incorporated into the proximal connector end.
More Information

No
The summary describes a laser device with an RFID sensor for fiber recognition. There is no mention of AI or ML capabilities, image processing, or data analysis that would suggest the use of such technologies.

Yes

The device is intended for surgical procedures such as incision, excision, vaporization, hemostasis, and coagulation of soft tissue across various medical specialties, which are therapeutic interventions.

No.
The device description and intended use indicate that the Ceralas E15/980, E30/980 is a surgical laser for incision, excision, vaporization, ablation, hemostasis, or coagulation of soft tissue, not for diagnosis.

No

The device description clearly states it is a laser with an incorporated RFID sensor/antenna and uses fibers, indicating it is a hardware device, 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 states the device is for "delivery of laser light to soft tissue... during surgical procedures." This describes a therapeutic or surgical device used directly on the patient's body.
  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device does not perform such analysis on specimens.
  • Device Description: The description focuses on the laser's technical characteristics and its use with fibers, consistent with a surgical laser.
  • Lack of IVD Indicators: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, performing tests on specimens, or providing diagnostic information based on laboratory analysis.

Therefore, the Ceralas E15/980, E30/980 is a surgical laser device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Technological Characteristics

The Ceralas E15/980, E30/980 has the same technological characteristics as the cleared Ceralas D. The laser has an additionally incorporated RFID sensor/antenna in the fiber port so as to recognize fibers with an RFID chip in their connectors. The fibers used with the Ceralas E have been previously cleared by FDA (K951775, K964497, K060050) for use with its other laser products and have an RFID chip incorporated into the proximal connector end.

Substantial Equivalence

The Ceralas E15/980, E30/980 has the same intended use and similar indications, principles of operation, and technological characteristics as the cleared Ceralas D 980 (Models D15, D25), The minor differences in the Ceralas E15/980, E30/980 technological characteristics do not raise

Dear Mr. Kahan:

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 Postmarket Surveillance at (240) 276-3474. For questions regarding the reporting of device adverse events. (Medical Device Reporting (MDR)), please contact the Division of Surveillance Systems at (240) 276-3464.
