LipoSaver™ is intended for the fragmentation and emulsification of subcutaneous fatty tissues for aesthetic body contouring. LipoSaver™ is indicated for use in the following surgical specialists when the fragmentation and aspiration of soft tissue is desired:
- Plastic and Reconstruction Surgery
- Orthopedic Surgery
LS-1000/LS-2000 is an ultrasonic surgical unit which uses ultrasound frequency vibration to fragment, emulsify subcutaneous fatty tissues. The PZT ceramic crystals in handpiece of LS-1000/LS-2000 transforms electrical signal into ultrasonic vibrations, and these vibrations transmit to the probe of LS-1000/LS-2000 which performs the function of fragmenting and emulsifying the subcutaneous fatty tissues. The LS-1000/LS-2000 is able to adjust the operating features such as vibration amplitude and frequency, and provides two modes as follows:
- N mode (continuous mode)
- Z mode (pulsed mode)
This document does not describe acceptance criteria for an AI/ML device, nor does it detail a study that proves a device meets such criteria.
The provided text is an FDA 510(k) clearance letter and a 510(k) summary for a medical device called "LipoSaver™". This device is a suction lipoplasty system, which is a physical device used in surgery to fragment and emulsify subcutaneous fatty tissues. It is an ultrasonic surgical unit that uses PZT ceramic crystals to generate ultrasonic vibrations.
The 510(k) clearance process focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device, primarily through non-clinical performance data (electrical safety, biocompatibility) and a comparison of physical and functional characteristics. It does not involve AI/ML performance evaluation.
Therefore, the requested information regarding acceptance criteria for an AI/ML device and a study proving it meets those criteria cannot be extracted from this document.
The document details:
- Device Name: LipoSaver™
- Regulation Number/Name: 21 CFR 878.5040, Suction Lipoplasty System
- Regulatory Class: Class II
- Product Code: MUU
- Predicate Device: K190551, VASERlipo System
- Non-clinical tests performed: Biocompatibility (ISO 10993-5, -10, -11, USP 43 <151>), Electrical safety (IEC 60601-1), Electromagnetic Compatibility (EN 60601-1-2). These tests are typically for physical medical devices to ensure they are safe and perform as intended, not for AI/ML performance.
- Comparison of technological characteristics: Operating frequency, cannula dimensions, and primary function are compared to the predicate.
None of the information requested in points 1-9 pertains to an AI/ML device or its performance study.

Dear Peter Chung:
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 (the 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 available at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/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.
Additional information about changes that may require a new premarket notification are provided in the FDA guidance documents entitled "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Change to an Existing Device" (https://www.fda.gov/media/99812/download) and "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Software Change to an Existing Device" (https://www.fda.gov/media/99785/download).

§ 878.5040 Suction lipoplasty system.
(a)
Identification. A suction lipoplasty system is a device intended for aesthetic body contouring. The device consists of a powered suction pump (containing a microbial filter on the exhaust and a microbial in-line filter in the connecting tubing between the collection bottle and the safety trap), collection bottle, cannula, and connecting tube. The microbial filters, tubing, collection bottle, and cannula must be capable of being changed between patients. The powered suction pump has a motor with a minimum of1/3 horsepower, a variable vacuum range from 0 to 29.9 inches of mercury, vacuum control valves to regulate the vacuum with accompanying vacuum gauges, a single or double rotary vane (with or without oil), a single or double diaphragm, a single or double piston, and a safety trap.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). Consensus standards and labeling restrictions.
