The document describes a passive medical device (laser fibers) and does not mention any computational or analytical capabilities that would involve AI or ML.
No.
The device is a fiber that delivers laser radiation to target tissue; it is not the therapeutic device itself, but rather an accessory to be used with a cleared/certified laser device for therapeutic applications.
No
Explanation: The device is described as surgical laser fibers intended to deliver laser radiation to target tissue for therapeutic application, not for diagnosis.
No
The device description clearly states it is a group of "surgical instruments" and describes physical components like fibers, connectors, and jacket materials. It also mentions sterilization and physical testing, indicating a hardware device.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the fibers are used to "deliver the laser radiation to the target tissue". This describes a therapeutic or surgical function, not a diagnostic one performed in vitro (outside the body).
- Device Description: The description reinforces the surgical nature of the device, referring to them as "surgical instruments" used to deliver laser power for therapeutic applications.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing samples (blood, tissue, etc.), detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information based on in vitro testing.
IVD devices are specifically designed to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device's function is to facilitate a surgical procedure by delivering laser energy.

Device Description
LGO-Surgical Laser Fibers are a group of single use or reusable with up to 10 total uses EtO sterilized laser powered surgical instruments. They are intended for use in healthcare facilities or hospitals by physicians being familiar with the handling of medical laser devices, and with the therapeutic application of sterile medical optical fibers.
There are two primary product subgroups: Bare Fiber and Side Fire Fiber. Each subgroup encompasses various models on the market, which primarily vary in their distal end design, jacket materials, diameter, length, and usage (single use or 10x reusable). All variations of the LGO-Surgical Laser Fibers feature an SMA-905 connector or a custom special connector at the proximal end for compatibility with appropriate medical laser devices.

Trade/Device Name: LGO-Surgical Laser Fibers Regulation Number: 21 CFR 878.4810 Regulation Name: Laser Surgical Instrument For Use In General And Plastic Surgery And In Dermatology Regulatory Class: Class II Product Code: GEX Dated: September 30, 2024 Received: September 30, 2024
Dear Santa Vucina:
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-regulatory-information/postmarketing-safety-reportingcombination-products); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) 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.
All medical devices, including Class I and unclassified devices and combination product device constituent parts are required to be in compliance with the final Unique Device Identification System rule ("UDI Rule"). The UDI Rule requires, among other things, that a device bear a unique device identifier (UDI) on its label and package (21 CFR 801.20(a)) unless an exception or alternative applies (21 CFR 801.20(b)) and that the dates on the device label be formatted in accordance with 21 CFR 801.18. The UDI Rule (21 CFR 830.300(a) and 830.320(b)) also requires that certain information be submitted to the Global Unique Device Identification Database (GUDID) (21 CFR Part 830 Subpart E). For additional information on these requirements, please see the UDI System webpage at https://www.fda.gov/medical-device-advicecomprehensive-regulatory-assistance/unique-device-identification-system-udi-system.

Clinical tests
No clinical testing was performed for this 510(k). Clinical data was not deemed to be necessary to establish equivalence between the subject device and predicative device.
Conclusion
The LGO-Surgical Laser Fibers exhibit comparable technological characteristics, including product code, indications for use, core diameter, material composition, operating wavelength range, and sterilization method, ensuring similar performance in surgical applications, when compared to the predicate device. Both devices are designed for single use or are reusable with up to 10 total uses, and utilize SMA 905 connectors for laser compatibility. While the LGO-Surgical Laser Fibers do not include SMA 906 compatibility and differ slightly in construction materials and core diameter, these differences do not raise new questions of safety or effectiveness.
In conclusion, the evidence presented in this summary supports the claim that the LGO-Surgical Laser Fibers are substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
