More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a conventional laser photocoagulator system with no mention of AI or ML features in the device description, intended use, or performance studies.

Yes
The device is used in ophthalmic surgical procedures for photocoagulation, iridotomy, and trabeculoplasty, which are therapeutic interventions.

No

The device is described as a "photocoagulator system" intended for "ophthalmic surgical procedures," which are therapeutic rather than diagnostic. The description focuses on treatment wavelengths, delivery units, and the purpose of the device for procedures like retinal and macular photocoagulation, iridotomy, and trabeculoplasty, all of which are interventions, not diagnostic assessments.

No

The device description explicitly lists hardware components such as diode aim and treatment lasers, graphical user interface, slit lamp and binocular indirect ophthalmoscope delivery units, and a footswitch.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for ophthalmic surgical procedures, specifically using laser photocoagulation to treat conditions in the eye. This is a therapeutic procedure performed directly on the patient's body.
  • Device Description: The device is a laser system designed to deliver light energy to tissue. It's a surgical tool, not a device that analyzes samples taken from the body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: IVD devices are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, tissue) taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device does not perform any such analysis of specimens.

Therefore, the Nidek Multicolor Laser Photocoagulator System MC-500 is a therapeutic medical device used in surgery, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

SECTION 6 510(k) SUMMARY (CONT.)

Product Description

The Nidek Multicolor Laser Photocoagulator System MC-500 ("MC-500") is a conventional ophthalmic laser photocoagulator system with treatment light wavelengths of 532 um, 577 nm, and 647 nm. The system is comprised of a diode aim and treatment lasers, graphical user interface, slit lamp and binocular indirect ophthalmoscope delivery units, and a footswitch.

Substantial Equivalence

The MC-500 is substantially equivalent to the predicate device with regard to design, function, technological characteristics, intended use and performance characteristics. Any differences in the technological characteristics between the devices do not raise any new issues of safety or efficacy. Thus, the proposed MC-500 is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.

Testing in Support of Substantial Equivalence Determination

All necessary bench testing was conducted on the proposed MC-500 to support a determination of substantial equivalence to the predicate device.

Summary

The MC-500 is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
