Device Description
The Orthopedic iPlus Soft Tissue Laser is an erbium, yttrium, scandium, gallium garnet (Er, Cr:YSGG) solid state laser that provides optical energy to the user controlled distribution of atomized water droplets at 2.78 μm (2780 nm). The laser consists of a cabinet which houses the power supply, the cooling system, microcontroller, laser, foot switch, and fiber optic for delivery of laser energy with fiber optic handpiece setup. The Orthopedic iPlus Soft Tissue Loser utilizes direct laser energy either with or without water for cooling and hydration to perform soft tissue incision, resection, ablation, vaporization, coagulation and hemostasis.
More Information

Not Found

No
The document describes a laser surgical instrument and its intended uses. There is no mention of AI or ML technology in the device description, intended use, or any other section.

Yes

The device is intended for surgical procedures, including incision, excision, vaporization, ablation, and coagulation, which are therapeutic interventions aimed at treating conditions or diseases in both dental and orthopedic contexts.

No

The device is a surgical laser intended for use in orthopedic and podiatric surgery to perform procedures like incision, excision, resection, ablation, vaporization, coagulation, and hemostasis of tissues, not for diagnosing conditions.

No

The device description clearly states it is a solid state laser system consisting of a cabinet, power supply, cooling system, microcontroller, laser, foot switch, and fiber optic delivery system with a handpiece. This indicates it is a hardware device that utilizes laser energy for surgical procedures, not a software-only device.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue samples) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Function: The Orthopedic iPlus Soft Tissue Laser is a surgical instrument that uses laser energy to directly interact with and modify tissues within the body (oral tissues, bone, joints). It is used for procedures like cutting, excising, vaporizing, and coagulating tissue.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes surgical procedures performed directly on the patient's body, not the analysis of samples outside the body.

Therefore, the Orthopedic iPlus Soft Tissue Laser falls under the category of a surgical device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Dear Ms. Boswell:

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. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you; however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls.
