No
The document does not mention AI, ML, or any related concepts like image processing, training sets, or performance metrics typically associated with AI/ML devices. The description focuses on the laser technology and its intended uses.

Yes
The device is used for incision, excision, ablation, and vaporization of human soft tissue, which are therapeutic interventions.

No
The device, a Fractional C02 Laser System, is indicated for therapeutic uses such as incision, excision, ablation, vaporization, and ablative skin resurfacing. It does not mention any function related to diagnosing a condition or disease.

No

The device description explicitly states "SMAXEL CO2 Surgical Laser System," indicating a hardware component (a laser system) is involved, not just software.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. These tests are performed outside of the body (in vitro).
  • SMAXEL Function: The SMAXEL Fractional CO2 Laser System is a surgical laser used for direct treatment of human soft tissue through incision, excision, ablation, and vaporization. It operates on the body, not on samples taken from the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes surgical procedures performed directly on the patient.

Therefore, based on the provided information, the SMAXEL is a surgical device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Dear Alexander Henderson:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803); good

manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (OS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR Part 807.97).
