More Information

Not Found

No
The document describes a laser system for various surgical and aesthetic applications. There is no mention of AI or ML in the intended use, device description, or any other section. The device appears to be a traditional laser delivery system.

Yes.
The device is indicated for various medical treatments, including pain relief, tissue modification, and the treatment of vascular lesions, which are therapeutic applications.

No

The device is indicated for surgical applications such as vaporization, incision, excision, ablation, cutting, coagulation, and photocoagulation of soft tissue, as well as hair removal and pain relief, none of which are diagnostic functions.

No

The device description explicitly states it consists of a "console and laser deliver accessories" and uses "focusing optics to deliver thermal energy," indicating it is a hardware-based system that delivers optical energy.

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, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • JOULE System's Function: The JOULE 810/940/980 Multi-Platform System is a laser system that delivers optical energy directly to soft tissue for surgical applications like vaporization, incision, excision, ablation, cutting, hemostasis, and coagulation. It also has indications for pain relief, hair removal, and treatment of vascular and pigmented lesions.
  • Lack of Specimen Analysis: The intended uses and device description clearly indicate that the device works directly on the patient's body and does not involve the analysis of in vitro specimens.

Therefore, the JOULE 810/940/980 Multi-Platform System falls under the category of a therapeutic or surgical device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.
