Device Description

The EVO Platform is a laser family that includes Q-Switched and/or Pulsed laser sources, emitting at one or more of the following wavelengths: 532 nm, 1064 nm, 1320 nm (Nd:YAG laser), 694 nm (Ruby laser), or 755 nm (Alexandrite laser).

The EVO Platform systems, through the special universal Twain connector, can be equipped with intense pulsed light handpieces (Twain IPL) emitting at the following wavelengths: 650-1200nm, 625-1200nm, 590-1200nm, 570-1200nm, 550-1200nm, 400-1200nm.

The EVO Platform systems, when operating with Pulsed laser sources and IPL, can be used in combination with optional contact, or air, cooling systems.

The optical delivery system is an articulated arm with fixed handpieces for Q-switched sources and an optical fiber with focusing handpieces for pulsed sources. The optical delivery system for the IPL system is a handpiece (Twain IPL) with fixed or interchangeable light filters at different wavelengths.

All the models belonging to the EVO platform have the same components and the same control software. The only difference between different models is the optical bench that depends on the sources installed.

The EVO Platform is controlled via a touch screen display housed in the front of the device.

Emission is triggered by means of a footswitch.

AI/ML Overview

This document is a 510(k) Special Summary for a medical device called the EVO Platform, which is a laser system used in various aesthetic, cosmetic, and surgical applications. The submission is for modifications to an already cleared device, focusing on changes to performance specifications.

Here's an analysis based on your request:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

Strictly speaking, the document does not present a table of "acceptance criteria" in the typical sense of specific, quantitative thresholds for a diagnostic AI device (e.g., sensitivity, specificity, AUC). Instead, it describes general compliance with recognized consensus standards.

The acceptance criteria here are implicitly:

  • Compliance with safety and performance standards: The device must meet the requirements of specific IEC standards for medical electrical equipment and laser safety.
  • Software verification and validation: The software must be verified and validated according to FDA guidance.
  • Biocompatibility: Materials must be biocompatible.

The reported device performance is that the modified device "passed all the required testing and is in compliance will all applicable sections of the above mentioned performance standards."

Acceptance Criteria CategorySpecific Standard/RequirementReported Device Performance
Safety & Essential PerformanceIEC 60601-2-22 (Surgical Laser Equipment)Passed all required testing; in compliance.
Laser SafetyIEC 60825-1 (Laser Product Classification & Requirements)Passed all required testing; in compliance.
General Safety & PerformanceIEC 60601-1 (Medical Electrical Equipment)In compliance (both modified and unmodified devices).
Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)IEC 60601-1-2 (Collateral Standard: EMC)In compliance (both modified and unmodified devices).
SoftwareFDA Guidance for Software Contained in Medical DevicesSoftware verification and validation conducted; documentation provided.
BiocompatibilityEstablished based on predicate devices.Materials have no differences from predicate; biocompatibility established.

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

This document describes a device modification to a laser system, not an AI software intended for diagnosis or prediction using a dataset of images or other patient data. Therefore, the concept of "test set sample size" and "data provenance" (country of origin, retrospective/prospective) as it applies to AI/machine learning models is not applicable here. The "testing" refers to physical device performance and safety testing against engineering standards.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish Ground Truth

Again, this is not applicable as the document concerns a physical laser device modification, not an AI diagnostic algorithm requiring expert-established ground truth from medical images or patient data. The "ground truth" for this device is compliance with engineering and safety standards.

4. Adjudication Method

Not applicable for the same reasons as above. There is no human adjudication of diagnostic findings described.

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

Not applicable. This study type is highly relevant for evaluating AI tools that assist human readers in tasks like image interpretation. This document describes a laser device; it does not involve human readers interpreting cases with or without AI assistance.

6. Standalone Performance Study (Algorithm Only)

Not applicable. This document is for a physical laser device. The "software" mentioned underwent verification and validation, but not in the sense of a standalone diagnostic algorithm being evaluated for performance on a dataset.

7. Type of Ground Truth Used

The "ground truth" for this device is its adherence to engineering specifications, safety standards (e.g., IEC 60601 series, IEC 60825-1), and FDA guidance for software verification and validation. There is no clinical "ground truth" (like pathology, expert consensus, or outcomes data) in the context of diagnostic accuracy assessment because the device is a therapeutic/surgical tool, not a diagnostic one.

8. Sample Size for the Training Set

Not applicable. This device is not an AI/machine learning model that undergoes "training" on a dataset. The software mentioned is likely embedded control software, verified and validated through traditional software engineering methods, not machine learning training.

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

Not applicable, for the same reasons as in point 8.
