Intended Use
The Phaser Lipoplasty System is intended to be used for liquefaction and aspiration of localized subcutaneous fatty deposits for the purpose of aesthetic body contouring. The Phaser Lipoplasty System is indicated for use in aesthetic body contouring.
Device Description
The Phaser Lipoplasty System is a surgical liposuction device that utilizes pressurized, heated and pulsed saline streams ("the Phaser stream") in conjunction with a specialized cannula to transition adipose tissue from a solid state to a liquid or gel state so as to facilitate its removal from the body. The physician can employ standard surgical liposuction techniques when using the device, the low pressure and temperature allow adipose tissue removal without burning or otherwise damaging non-target tissues within the surgical field.
More Information

Not Found

No
The device description and performance studies focus on mechanical and thermal mechanisms for fat liquefaction and removal, with no mention of AI or ML. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" section explicitly states "Not Found".

No.
The device is used for aesthetic body contouring through the removal of fatty deposits, which is typically considered a cosmetic procedure rather than a therapeutic one aimed at treating a disease or condition.

No

The device is described as a surgical liposuction device intended for aesthetic body contouring by liquefying and aspirating fatty deposits. It is a therapeutic device, not a diagnostic one, as it performs a treatment rather than identifying a condition or disease.

No

The device description clearly states it is a surgical liposuction device that utilizes pressurized, heated and pulsed saline streams in conjunction with a specialized cannula, indicating it is a hardware-based system.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for "liquefaction and aspiration of localized subcutaneous fatty deposits for the purpose of aesthetic body contouring." This is a surgical procedure performed directly on the body.
  • Device Description: The device is described as a "surgical liposuction device" that uses "pressurized, heated and pulsed saline streams" and a "specialized cannula" to remove adipose tissue from the body. This is an invasive surgical tool.
  • Anatomical Site: The target is "localized subcutaneous fatty deposits," which are within the body.
  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics (IVDs) are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.

The Phaser Lipoplasty System is a surgical device used for a cosmetic procedure performed directly on the patient's body, not for testing samples taken from the body.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

The company conducted in-vivo testing in a porcine model to assess the safety and performance of the device and the heat generated at the entrance/puncture site, comparing these results to concurrent testing performed with suction assisted lipoplasty (SAL). Temperature readings were taken from worst case locations on the skin surface and on the highest temperature region of the cannula. In addition, tissue was examined histologically to assess potential thermal damage. The data gathered in this study confirms that there is no thermal damage association with the use of the Phaser, with the impact on the Phaser test animals' skin directly comparable to the effects seen with SAL. Specifically, average skin temperatures with the Phaser ranged from 31.4 to 35.8℃ as compared to 26.2 to 31.1℃ for SAL. Average Phaser cannula temperatures ranged from 36.7 to 40.2℃, with corresponding SAL cannula temperatures of 28.5 to 33.8℃. Importantly, no histological evidence of thermal damage was seen with either the Phaser or SAL.

A simulated use study to address the use environment and the device user interface was also performed. The study evaluated human factor considerations, including the device's use environment, user capabilities, and the product's user interface. These evaluations demonstrated that the device performed and functioned as intended.

Key Metrics (Sensitivity, Specificity, PPV, NPV, etc.)

Average skin temperatures with the Phaser ranged from 31.4 to 35.8℃ as compared to 26.2 to 31.1℃ for SAL. Average Phaser cannula temperatures ranged from 36.7 to 40.2℃, with corresponding SAL cannula temperatures of 28.5 to 33.8℃.

Intended Use / Indications for Use

The Phaser Lipoplasty System is intended to be used for liquefaction and aspiration of localized subcutaneous fatty deposits for the purpose of aesthetic body contouring.

The Phaser Lipoplasty System is indicated for use in aesthetic body contouring.

Technological Characteristics

The Phaser Lipoplasty System is a surgical liposuction device that utilizes pressurized, heated and pulsed saline streams ("the Phaser stream") in conjunction with a specialized

cannula to transition adipose tissue from a solid state to a liquid or gel state so as to facilitate its removal from the body. The physician can employ standard surgical liposuction techniques when using the device, the low pressure and temperature allow adipose tissue removal without burning or otherwise damaging non-target tissues within the surgical field.

Performance Data

The company conducted in-vivo testing in a porcine model to assess the safety and performance of the device and the heat generated at the entrance/puncture site, comparing these results to concurrent testing performed with suction assisted lipoplasty (SAL). Temperature readings were taken from worst case locations on the skin surface and on the highest temperature region of the cannula. In addition, tissue was examined histologically to assess potential thermal damage. The data gathered in this study confirms that there is no thermal damage association with the use of the Phaser, with the impact on the Phaser test animals' skin directly comparable to the effects seen with SAL. Specifically, average skin temperatures with the Phaser ranged from 31.4 to 35.8℃ as compared to 26.2 to 31.1℃ for SAL. Average Phaser cannula temperatures ranged from 36.7 to 40.2℃, with corresponding SAL cannula temperatures of 28.5 to 33.8℃. Importantly, no histological evidence of thermal damage was seen with either the Phaser or SAL.

A simulated use study to address the use environment and the device user interface was also performed. The study evaluated human factor considerations, including the device's use environment, user capabilities, and the product's user interface. These evaluations demonstrated that the device performed and functioned as intended.

Substantial Equivalence

The Phaser Lipoplasty System has the same intended uses and similar indications, technological characteristics, and principles of operation as the following predicate devices: the Misonix Inc. Lysonix 2000/3000 Ultrasonic System (K041058); the Soring GmbH, Sonoca Lipo (K052183) ("Sonoca-Lipo"); the Alcon Cataract Liquefracture Device (K980292); the PSI-Tec Peristaltic Infiltration Pump, Byron Medical Inc. (K040149); the Byron Medical Inc. PS1-Tec Liposuction Aspirator (K981215); the Byron Medical Inc. Byron Liposuction Aspiration and Tumescent Infiltration Cannulae/Needles (K981172); and the HK Surgical Inc., HK Liposuction Aspirator III (K032802). The minor technological differences between the Phaser Lipoplasty System and its predicate devices raise no new issues of safety or effectiveness. Performance data demonstrate that the Phaser Lipoplasty System has comparable performance and safety as compared to the Lysonix 2000/3000, Sonoca-Lipo and the AquaLase. Thus, the Phaser Lipoplasty System is substantially equivalent to its predicate devices.
