Intended Use
The Uropulse is intended to be used for cutting, vaporization, and coagulation of soft tissue in conjunction with endoscopic equipment (including laparoscopes, hysteroscopes, bronchoscopes, gastroscopes, cystoscopes, and colonoscopes), or for open surgery for contact or non-contact surgery with or without a handpiece for use in incision/excision, vaporization, ablation and coagulation of soft tissue. The Uropulse is indicated for use in medicine and surgery, in the following medical specialties: - Arthroscopy . - Urology . - Lithotripsv - Pulmonology - Gastroenterology - Gynecology - ENT - General Surgery
Device Description
The Dornier Medilas D Uropulse Laser is a solid-state Holmium YAG Laser. The laser emits laser radiation in the invisible wavelength range of 2080 nm in either a continuous-wave or pulsed mode, which is absorbed primarily by water, with an average penetration depth of approximately 400μm (0.4mm). Due to the application-dependent optimization of the pulse time of 350 microseconds, the Uropulse can be used in various medical applications including breaking up stones, cutting tissue, tissue ablation, coagulation and vaporization. The laser is microprocessor-controlled utilizing a watchdog-monitored microprocessor and operates with an internal cooling system and a heat exchanger. The bottom of the housing serves as a tank for cooling water and, at the same time, a base for the laser unit. A cooling circuit conducts away heat that is generated by the laser pump lamp. Water heated by the laser pump is conducted out of the cavity and into the stainless steel cooler. Following cooling, it is returned to the tanks. A graphic control panel regulates and displays the operating parameters, application modes, time functions, system status and messages to the User. The control panel consists of a display with integrated touch screen panel applications to control the functions of the laser. The laser light emission is transmitted to the application site by a sterile fiber optic delivery system (fiber cable) with a SMA 905 connector. Laser energy is transmitted through the fiber to the application site by depressing a foot pedal. The foot pedals, both the wired and wireless, are water- proof and explosion-proof. Various fiber sizes can be utilized depending on the application. The laser pulse energy at the distal end of the fiber lies within the range of 200-3500mJ. The pulse frequency can be adjusted in 0.2Hz increments between 3 and 20 HZ. The Uropulse contains an aiming beam at a wavelength of 532nm at the maximum power aperture of 1mW. The device employs a Class IV (4) laser pursuant to 21 CFR 1040 and IEC/EN 60825-1.
More Information

Not Found

No
The description details a laser system controlled by a standard microprocessor, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities for image processing, data analysis, or adaptive control.

No
The device is described as a surgical laser used for cutting, vaporization, and coagulation of soft tissue, which are procedures rather than therapeutic treatments aimed at restoring health.

No

The device is described as a surgical laser intended for cutting, vaporization, and coagulation of soft tissue. Its functions are therapeutic/interventional, not diagnostic.

No

The device description clearly details a physical laser system with hardware components such as a solid-state Holmium YAG Laser, cooling system, heat exchanger, and fiber optic delivery system. While it has a microprocessor and control panel, it is fundamentally a hardware device that utilizes software for control.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the Uropulse is used for cutting, vaporization, and coagulation of soft tissue in conjunction with endoscopic equipment or for open surgery. This describes a device used on the patient's body for surgical procedures.
  • Device Description: The description details a laser system that emits radiation to interact directly with tissue. This is consistent with a surgical device, not a device that analyzes samples in vitro (outside the body).
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue samples, etc.), reagents, or any processes typically associated with in vitro diagnostics.

In summary, the Uropulse is a surgical laser system used for treating tissue directly, which falls outside the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Substantial Equivalence

From a clinical perspective and comparing design specifications, the Uropulse and the predicate devices are substantially equivalent and have the same intended use. Based on the technological characteristics, design and overall performance of the devices. Dornier MedTech America believes that no significant differences exist between the Uropulse and the Domier Medilas H Solvo Laser (K122159).

Dornier MedTech America, Inc. believes the minor differences do not raise any concerns regarding the overall safety or effectiveness. Thus, the Uropulse is substantially equivalent to its predicate devices.
