Intended Use

The Equinox CO 2 laser when used in traditional non-fractionated scanner mode is indicated for incision, excision, ablation, vaporization, and coagulation of body soft tissues.

The Equinox CO 2 laser when used in fractionated mode is indicated for ablative skin resurfacing.

Device Description

The Equinox CO2 laser has a wavelength of 10,600nm. CO2 fractional laser uses scanning optics to deliver a pattern of thermal energy to the epidermis and upper dermis. Device accessories include tip attachments. This system consists of main body, color touch screen, Arm, hand-piece and Foot switch.

AI/ML Overview

The Equinox CO2 Laser System is a medical device, and the provided text describes its 510(k) summary for FDA clearance. The "study" mentioned is a performance test to demonstrate the device's effects on tissue, rather than a clinical trial with acceptance criteria for statistical endpoints.

Here's a breakdown of the requested information based on the provided text:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

Acceptance Criteria: The document does not explicitly state quantitative acceptance criteria for the device's performance (e.g., "depth must be between X and Y"). Instead, the performance data seems to be presented to demonstrate the effect and healing response of the device, implying that the observed effects were deemed acceptable for its intended use and comparable to a predicate device. The conclusion of "substantial equivalence" is based on these demonstrated effects.

Reported Device Performance:

200 mJ81.8 µm437 µm66.37 µm401 µm20.03 µm172.04 µm

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

  • Sample Size: The device was used "on a pig." The exact number of pigs or specific treatment sites on the pig is not detailed, but it indicates a very small sample, likely a single animal experimentation.
  • Data Provenance: The data was generated through an experimental study on a pig. The country of origin is not specified but implicitly within the context of an FDA submission. This is a prospective study in the sense that the experiment was conducted specifically to generate this data.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Their Qualifications

The document does not explicitly state the number of experts or their qualifications for evaluating the histology data. It simply states the "targeted area was biopsied to evaluate the effect." It's implied that qualified personnel (e.g., pathologists or histologists) analyzed the biopsies, but no specific details are provided.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

The document does not mention any adjudication method. Given the nature of the study (histology on a pig), it's highly unlikely that a formal adjudication process involving multiple human readers for a "test set" in the context of image interpretation was employed. The evaluation was likely direct analysis of tissue samples.

5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study

No, a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was not done. The performance data is derived from direct histological analysis of tissue treated by the device, not from human readers interpreting data with or without AI assistance. The concept of "human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance" does not apply to this type of device and study.

6. Standalone Performance Study

Yes, a form of standalone performance study was done. The "Performance Data: Histology data was submitted to support clearance of the device in fractionated mode" describes the direct effect of the algorithm/device on tissue. This is a direct measurement of the device's physical output (thermal damage zones and healing response) without human-in-the-loop performance measurement.

7. Type of Ground Truth Used

The ground truth used was histology (microscopic examination of biopsied tissue). This provides direct biological evidence of the device's effects (depth and width of thermal damage zones and healing response).

8. Sample Size for the Training Set

The document does not mention a training set. This is because the Equinox CO2 Laser System is a physical laser device, not an AI/machine learning algorithm that requires a training set for model development. The performance evaluation is based on direct physical effects.

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

As there is no training set for this device type, this question is not applicable.

Performance Data:Histology data was submitted to support clearance of the device in fractionated mode. The device was used on a pig with energy up to 200mJ per microbeam for both the 120um and the 800um spot sizes. The targeted area was biopsied to evaluate the effect. The data was to show the depth and width of thermal damage zones and healing response over time.
