No
The document describes a laser system for surgical procedures and does not mention any AI or ML components in its description, intended use, or performance studies.
Yes
The device is described as a thulium fiber laser intended for various surgical procedures, including incision, resection, ablation, coagulation, hemostasis, and vaporization of soft tissue for therapeutic purposes (e.g., treating BPH, removing tumors, fragmenting calculi).
No
The device is described as a thulium fiber laser intended for various surgical procedures such as incision, resection, ablation, and coagulation of soft tissue. These are therapeutic actions, not diagnostic ones.
No
The device description clearly outlines hardware components including a laser console, footswitches, surgical fibers, and various accessories, indicating it is a physical medical device that utilizes software for control and operation, but is not solely software.
Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) taken from the human body to provide information about a person's health. This testing is done outside of the body (in vitro).
- Device Description: The description clearly states that the IPG Medical Family of Thulium Fiber Lasers, Surgical Fibers, and Accessories is intended for surgical procedures performed on soft tissue within the body (incision, resection, ablation, coagulation, hemostasis, and vaporization). The laser energy is delivered directly to the treatment site.
- Intended Use: The listed indications are all surgical procedures performed directly on anatomical structures within the body.
The device is a surgical laser system used for therapeutic intervention, not for diagnostic testing of specimens.

Dear Samuel Wade:
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).
Your device is also subject to, among other requirements, the Quality System (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820), which includes, but is not limited to, 21 CFR 820.30, Design controls; 21 CFR 820.90, Nonconforming product; and 21 CFR 820.100, Corrective and preventive action. Please note that regardless of whether a change requires premarket review, the QS regulation requires device manufacturers to review and approve changes to device design and production (21 CFR 820.30 and 21 CFR 820.70) and document changes and approvals in the device master record (21 CFR 820.181).
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 Part 803) for devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR Part 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/combination-products/guidance-regulatoryinformation/postmarketing-safety-reporting-combination-products); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (OS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR Part 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR Parts 1000-1050.
Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR 807.97).

Side-by-Side Comparison Testing
All testing demonstrated that the IPG Medical Family of Thulium Fiber Lasers, Surgical Fibers and Accessories met its design requirements.
Comparative testing (bench and animal tissue testing and analysis) between the IPG Medical Family of Thulium Fiber Lasers, Surgical Fibers and Accessories and the primary predicate and additional predicate devices showed equivalent device performance and tissue response.
Conclusions
Testing supports a substantial equivalence determination of the IPG Medical Family of Thulium Fiber Lasers, Surgical Fibers and Accessories in comparison to the primary predicate device, the SOLTIVE Laser System, and the additional predicate device, vela XL Laser System. Technological differences between the IPG Medical Family of Thulium Fiber Lasers, Surgical Fibers and Accessories and the predicate devices do not raise any different or new types of safety or effectiveness questions.
