More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a laser device for surgical procedures and does not mention any AI or ML capabilities. The performance studies focus on safety and effectiveness compared to a predicate device, not on algorithmic performance.

Yes
Explanation: The device is intended for surgical procedures like incision, excision, vaporization, and coagulation, and for treating reflux of saphenous veins, indicating a therapeutic purpose.

No.
The device is used for surgical procedures such as incision, excision, vaporization, and coagulation, and for laser-assisted lipolysis and vein treatment, which are therapeutic rather than diagnostic actions.

No

The device description explicitly states it is intended for the "delivery of laser light" and mentions specific laser wavelengths (980nm and 1470nm). This indicates a physical hardware component (the laser) is integral to the device's function, making it a hardware-based medical device, not software-only.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Function: The Liftendo 2.0 and Liftendo are described as laser devices used for surgical procedures directly on soft tissue within the body (incision, excision, vaporization, ablation, etc.). They deliver laser light to the tissue.
  • Lack of Specimen Analysis: There is no mention of the device analyzing any biological specimens taken from the body. Its function is to interact with tissue in situ.

Therefore, the device's intended use and description clearly place it outside the scope of In Vitro Diagnostic devices.
