The device description and performance studies focus on standard laser technology and pre-programmed settings, with no mention of adaptive learning, data analysis, or AI/ML components.
Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the device is for "temporary relief of min and stiffness, minor arthritis pain, or muscle spasm; the temporary increase in local blood circulation; and for the temporary relaxation of muscles," which are therapeutic purposes. Additionally, the "Device Description" refers to it as a "low level therapeutic laser lamp."
No
The device description and intended use state that it emits energy for topical heating and therapeutic purposes (relief of pain, stiffness, etc.), not for diagnosing conditions.
No
The device description clearly outlines hardware components including a control unit, power supply, user interface panel with buttons, an IR laser lamp on a folding arm, a main key power switch, and an emergency stop. The performance studies also describe electrical safety and functional performance testing of this hardware.
Based on the provided information, the GIGALaser 1801 is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is for "topical heating for the purpose of elevating tissue temperature for a temporary relief of min and stiffhess, minor arthritis pain, or muscle spassn; the temporary increase in local blood circulation; and for the temporary relaxation of muscles." This describes a therapeutic treatment applied directly to the body, not a test performed on samples taken from the body.
- Device Description: The description details a "non-invasive, low level therapeutic laser lamp" that emits energy to the body. This aligns with a physical therapy or pain relief device, not an IVD.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting specific substances, or providing diagnostic information based on laboratory tests.
IVD devices are designed to perform tests on samples taken from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment of diseases or conditions. The GIGALaser 1801's function is to apply energy to the body for therapeutic purposes.

Device Description
The GIGALaser 1801 is a non-invasive, low level therapeutic laser lamp. The control unit contains the power supply and the user interface panel. The IR laser lamp is placed on a folding arm which is attached to the base unit. The interface panel consists of three buttons for 'STOP', 'START' AND 'PAUSE' and there are 6 buttons for the 6 different pre-programmed treatment programs labeled 1 - 6. The buttons light up when selected. A LED segment tells the user the time the treatment has run. The GIGALaser 1801 is also equipped with a main key power switch and an emergency stop. The GigaLaser is a medical device, which is delivered with a user and therapy manual and a complete labeling for the user.
Principles of operation: The GIGALaser 1801 is a stationary medical device. The device consists of a base mechanical unit that holds a control unit and an extension arm that holds the light panel including the laser diodes. The user selects the desired therapy program, thereby selecting output power level and exposure time, using the 6 different touch buttons, labeled 1-6, located on the top of the control panel. After the user has selected the therapy program the user starts the program by pressing the 'PLAY' touch button also located on the top of the control unit together with the 'PAUSE' and the 'STOP' button. After the user has activated the 'PLAY' button the therapy program will run until, if not stopped manually by the user then stops automatically when the treatment is over. On the back of the control unit there are the emergency STOP button, the mains plug in, the interconnection switch and the connection output plug for the light panel.
Typical use of product: The GIGALaser 1801 is typically used to utilize infrared diodes to provide topical heating for the purpose of elevating tissue temperature for a temporary relief of minor muscle and joint pain and stiffness, minor arthritis pain, or muscle spasm, the temporary increase in local blood circulation and the temporary relaxation of muscle. The GIGALaser 1801 is placed directly above the skin to provide heating. The area is treated for the fixed exposure time.

Summary of Performance Studies
Clinical Testing: The use of light energy to generate heat for therapeutic use has been well documented and is generally accepted alternative treatment modality for the temporary relief of pain and tissue repair. The GIGALaser 1801 is capable of achieving therapeutic heat temperature range of 40 - 45 degrees centigrade as accepted by the FDA. An increase in topical heating of the tissue level by at least 5° centigrade was reached within one (1) minute demonstrated in the clinical testing conducted. The therapeutic temperature range was maintained for at least ten (10) minutes. The temperature versus time measurements was conducted on 4 subjects at various physical locations, i.e., arm, leq and shoulder. The pre-exposed topical skin temperature ranged from 36 to 39 degrees centigrade. These data demonstrate the GIGALaser 1801 meets the generally accepted topical temperature range for therapeutic heat of 40 - 45 degrees centigrade during the recommended treatment time of 10 minutes.
