Intended Use

The equipment is used for human tissue vaporization, coagulation in dermatology, plastic surgery, and general surgery. The fractional scanner is only for the treatment of wrinkles and skin resurfacing.

Device Description

The CO2 Diode Laser Therapy Systems mainly consist of console, articulated arm and a foot switch. CO2 laser wavelength is 10600nm, which is used to gasify the skin tissue based on the principle of the theory selective photothermolysis. The water in skin is the main target of the CO2 fractional laser, after absorbed the energy of the laser, the water will release heat, then be evaporated and gasified immediately, the cutaneous lesion will be eliminated instantly. By setting up the suitable energy and other parameters on skin tissue based on its specific thermal relaxation time, the healthy tissue can be prevented from being harmed.

AI/ML Overview

This document describes the premarket notification (510(k)) for the CO2 Laser Therapy Systems (K162398). The submission focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device (CO2 Laser Therapy Machine, K161925) rather than providing a study where the device meets specific performance acceptance criteria from a clinical trial.

Therefore, many of the requested elements for a study proving acceptance criteria cannot be extracted because such a study is not part of this 510(k) summary. Instead, the document provides non-clinical performance data (biocompatibility, electrical safety, EMC, and software verification/validation) to support safety and effectiveness and substantial equivalence.

Here's a breakdown of the information that can be extracted, and where the requested information is not available:

1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance

This document does not present a table of specific acceptance criteria (e.g., specific clinical performance metrics like sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, or a reduction in wrinkles of a certain percentage) that the device was evaluated against in a clinical study. Instead, the performance data provided are non-clinical performance tests demonstrating compliance with recognized standards.

Acceptance Criteria CategoryReported Device Performance (Non-Clinical)
BiocompatibilityComplies with ISO 10993-1. Passed tests for Cytotoxicity, Sensitization, and Irritation for skin and subcutaneous tissue contact (< 24 hours).
Electrical SafetyComplies with IEC 60601-1 (standard for safety).
EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility)Complies with IEC 60601-1-2 (standard for EMC).
General PerformanceComplies with IEC 60825-1 (for laser product safety).
Software V&VSoftware verification and validation conducted; documentation provided per FDA guidance. Software classified as "moderate" level of concern.

2. Sample sized used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)

Not applicable. No clinical test set or patient data (retrospective or prospective) was used for this 510(k) submission. The performance testing described is non-clinical (biocompatibility, electrical safety, EMC, software).

3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts

Not applicable. No clinical test set requiring expert-established ground truth was used.

4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set

Not applicable. No clinical test set requiring adjudication was used.

5. If a multi reader multi case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance

Not applicable. This device is a CO2 laser therapy system, not an AI diagnostic or assistance tool for human readers. Therefore, an MRMC study comparing human readers with and without AI assistance is not relevant or included.

6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done

Not applicable. This device is a CO2 laser therapy system, not an AI algorithm.

7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)

Not applicable. No clinical ground truth (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data) was used or required for this 510(k) submission as no clinical studies were performed. The "ground truth" for the non-clinical tests was compliance with the specified international standards.

8. The sample size for the training set

Not applicable. This is not an AI/machine learning device that requires a training set. This is a physical medical device (CO2 laser).

9. How the ground truth for the training set was established

Not applicable. As noted above, this is not an AI/machine learning device.


Summary of what the document does provide regarding device performance:

The document focuses on demonstrating that the CO2 Laser Therapy Systems is substantially equivalent to a predicate device (K161925) and meets all applicable non-clinical safety standards. This is the primary method for demonstrating safety and effectiveness in a 510(k) submission when clinical studies are not deemed necessary by the FDA.

  • Comparison of Technological Characteristics: A detailed table compares the proposed device with the predicate device across various specifications (Output power, Work mode, Laser medium/energy source, CO2 laser wavelength, Aiming Beam wavelength and power, Spot Size, Dot Quantity, Pulse Energy, Pulse Length, Cooling, Patient contact sites, Control System, Laser Operation, Power input). The conclusion is that differences do not raise new questions of safety and effectiveness.
  • Non-Clinical Performance Data:
    • Biocompatibility: The device components that contact the patient were tested and found to be biocompatible according to recognized standards (ISO 10993-1).
    • Electrical Safety & EMC: The device complies with IEC 60601-1 and IEC 60601-1-2 standards, ensuring electrical safety and electromagnetic compatibility.
    • General Performance Testing: The device was tested according to IEC 60825-1, a standard for the safety of laser products.
    • Software Verification and Validation: Software testing was conducted, and it was deemed a "moderate" level of concern, with documentation provided as per FDA guidance.
  • No Clinical Studies: The submission explicitly states, "The subject of this premarket submission, CO2 Laser Therapy Systems, does not require clinical studies to support substantial equivalence." This is why there is no information on clinical acceptance criteria or studies.
