Intended Use
Dornier's Medilas H RFID Laser Fibers are intended to be used as an accessory for the Dornier Medilas H Holmium Laser ("Laser"). This laser is intended for cutting, vaporization, ablation, and coagulation of soft tissue in conjunction with endoscopic equipment (including laparoscopes, hysteroscopes, bronchoscopes, gastroscopes, 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 Laser is indicated for use in medicine and surgery, in the following medical specialties: - Arthroscopy, - Urology, - Lithotripsy, ● - Pulmonology, - Gastroenterology, - Gynecology, - o ENT. - General Surgery.
Device Description
The Medilas H RFID Laser Fiber is a modification to Dornier's currently cleared Dornier Medilas H RFID Laser Fibers (K152591) to include a rounded, ball tip, distal end. The fiber core and cladding for the subject device are made from silica, which is same material used in the predicate device. Additionally, the fiber is manufactured and tested in the identical fashion as the company's predicate device and functions in an equivalent manner.
More Information

No
The document describes a laser fiber accessory with a modified tip shape and mentions RFID for identification, but there is no mention of AI or ML in the device description, intended use, or performance testing.

Yes
The device is an accessory to a laser intended for cutting, vaporization, ablation, and coagulation of soft tissue, which are therapeutic medical procedures.

No

The device is described as an accessory for a laser intended for cutting, vaporization, ablation, and coagulation of soft tissue, which are therapeutic and surgical functions, not diagnostic ones.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "Laser Fiber" made from "silica," which is a physical component, not software. The testing described also focuses on physical properties like emission pattern, power transmission, and tip fracture resistance.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the laser fibers are used as an accessory for a laser system for cutting, vaporization, ablation, and coagulation of soft tissue during surgical procedures. This is a direct surgical intervention on the patient's body.
  • Device Description: The device is a laser fiber, a physical component used to deliver laser energy.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue samples) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.

IVD devices are used in vitro (outside the body) to analyze biological samples. This device is used in vivo (inside the body) during surgery.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

Nonclinical functional performance testing was conducted per internal test methods. The functional testing included:

  • . Confirming that the emission pattern of the distal tip from the laser colored aiming beam is equivalent to the predicate device;
  • . Confirming the power transmission of the laser fibers when used with a Dornier Medilas H30 Holmium Laser is equivalent to the predicate device;
  • . Confirming the tip fracture resistance of the ball tip fiber is equivalent to the predicate device; and
  • Confirming the ability of the ball tip laser fibers to be introduced into a deflected scope with minimal resistance.

Purpose of the Special 510(k) notice.

The Medilas H RFID Laser Fiber is a modification to Dornier's currently cleared Dornier Medilas H RFID Laser Fibers (K152591) to include a rounded, ball tip, distal end.

Intended Use/Indications for Use

Dornier's Medilas H RFID Laser Fibers are intended to be used as an accessory for the Dornier Medilas H Holmium Laser ("Laser"). This laser is intended for cutting, vaporization, ablation, and coagulation of soft tissue in conjunction with endoscopic equipment (including laparoscopes, hysteroscopes, bronchoscopes, gastroscopes, 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 Laser is indicated for use in medicine and surgery, in the following medical specialties:

4

  • Arthroscopy,
  • Urology,
  • Lithotripsy, ●
  • Pulmonology,
  • Gastroenterology,
  • Gynecology,
  • o ENT.
  • General Surgery.

Technological Characteristics

The Dornier Medilas H RFID Laser Fiber has the same technological characteristics and principles of operation as the predicate device. The fiber core and cladding for the subject device are made from silica, which is same material used in the predicate device. Additionally, the fiber is manufactured and tested in the identical fashion as the company's predicate device and functions in an equivalent manner.

Standards

ISO 14971:2007 Medical devices -- Application of risk management to medical devices ISO 10993-1:2009 Biological evaluation of medical devices ISO 11135:2014 Sterilization of health-care products -- Ethylene oxide

Performance Data

Nonclinical functional performance testing was conducted per internal test methods. The functional testing included:

  • . Confirming that the emission pattern of the distal tip from the laser colored aiming beam is equivalent to the predicate device;
  • . Confirming the power transmission of the laser fibers when used with a Dornier Medilas H30 Holmium Laser is equivalent to the predicate device;
  • . Confirming the tip fracture resistance of the ball tip fiber is equivalent to the predicate device; and
  • Confirming the ability of the ball tip laser fibers to be introduced into a deflected scope with minimal resistance.

Substantial Equivalence

Dornier's Medilas H RFID Gentle Flex Laser Fiber has the same intended use/indications for use, as well as technological characteristics and principles of operation as the predicate device. The minor difference of the rounded distal tip does not raise any new questions of safety or effectiveness. Performance data demonstrates that the Dornier Medilas H RFID Gentle Flex Laser Fibers are substantially equivalent to the listed company predicate device. Thus, the Dornier Medilas H RFID GentleFlex Laser Fibers are substantially equivalent to its predicate and reference devices.
