Intended Use
The PowerX Lipo System is intended for the removal of tissues or fluids from the body during general surgical procedures including suction lipoplasty for the purpose of aesthetic body contouring.
Device Description
The PowerX Lipo System consists of three components: electronic controller with software, handpiece, and cannula. The handpiece is connected to the controller and to an independent aspiration source. The controller sends electronic signals to the handpiece and thereby controls the motion of the cannula that is fitted to the distal end of the handpiece.
More Information

Not Found

No
The document explicitly states "Not Found" for mentions of AI, DNN, or ML, and the device description focuses on electronic control of mechanical motion.

Yes
The device is intended for "removal of tissues or fluids from the body" and "suction lipoplasty for the purpose of aesthetic body contouring," which are therapeutic interventions.

No

The PowerX Lipo System is described as being used for the "removal of tissues or fluids from the body," specifically for "suction lipoplasty for the purpose of aesthetic body contouring." This is a therapeutic or surgical function, not a diagnostic one. There is no mention of the device analyzing or providing information about a patient's medical condition.

No

The device description explicitly states that the system consists of three components: an electronic controller with software, a handpiece, and a cannula. This indicates the presence of hardware components beyond just software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states "removal of tissues or fluids from the body during general surgical procedures including suction lipoplasty for the purpose of aesthetic body contouring." This describes a surgical procedure performed on the body, not a test performed on samples taken from the body to diagnose or monitor a condition.
  • Device Description: The description details a system for physically removing tissue and fluid using a handpiece, cannula, and aspiration source. This is a surgical tool, not a device for analyzing biological samples.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The document does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Detecting or measuring substances in samples
    • Providing diagnostic information
    • Using reagents or assays

The PowerX Lipo System is a surgical device used for aesthetic body contouring.

Dear Ms. Halevi:

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. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmr/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. 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

    1. Predicate Device
      Performance Standards:

K110255 PowerX Lipo System

    1. Product Description
      The subject of this Special 510(k) submission is for the PowerX Lipo System which is substantially equivalent to the predicate PowerX Lipo System.

The PowerX Lipo System consists of three components: electronic controller with software, handpiece, and cannula.

The handpiece is connected to the controller and to an independent aspiration source. The controller sends electronic signals to the handpiece and thereby controls the motion of the cannula that is fitted to the distal end of the handpiece.

    1. Indications for Use
      The PowerX Lipo System is intended for the removal of tissues or fluids from the body during general surgical procedures including suction lipoplasty for the purpose of aesthetic body contouring.
    1. Summary of Technological Characteristics

The technological characteristics of the PowerX Lipo System are substantially equivalent to those of the predicate device.

    1. Safety and Effectiveness Information
      The review of the indications for use and technical characteristics provided demonstrates the PowerX Lipo System is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
    1. Brief Summary of Nonclinical Tests and Results
      Safety tests of the System have demonstrated its compliance with applicable requirements of the following electrical standards:

| IEC 60601-
1:2005/AM1:2012 | Medical Electrical Equipment - Part 1: General
Requirements For Basic Safety And Essential
Performance |
|-----------------------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

| Cannula deformation
resistance | $20°±5°$ and straightening without the shaft exhibiting any
fractures, sharp edges, or loss of suction performance |
| Suction Vacuum (max) | 20 inHg at 5,000 ft |

9. Conclusion

The PowerX Lipo System shares the same indications for use, design features, and functional features, and thus is substantially equivalent to, the predicate device.

Non-clinical test results demonstrate that the PowerX Lipo System is substantially equivalent to the predicate device and no new issues of safety or effectiveness have been raised.
