Intended Use
For use in general surgery for the incision, excision, ablation, vaporization, coagulation of soft tissue. For use in dermatology for incision, excision, ablation and hemostatis of soft tissue.
Device Description
The New Star Model 130 laser is a compact, portable, self-contained surgical laser system that produces a variable 1-6 watt beam of infrared radiation at 1320nm wavelength. The system emits a pulsed laser beam which is delivered to the treatment site using a fiber optic delivery system. A visible light 0.5 mW HeNe laser beam at 632.8nm is used for aiming. The system is comprised of a laser console, a fiber-optic delivery system, a foot switch and a removable electronic key interlock. The system provides safety features that are designed to protect the operator and patient from high voltage and laser emissions.
More Information

Not Found

No
The description focuses on the laser technology and its physical components, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities.

Yes
The device is described as a "surgical laser system" used for the "incision, excision, ablation, vaporization, coagulation of soft tissue" in general surgery and dermatology, which are therapeutic medical procedures.

No

The device is described as a surgical laser system used for incision, excision, ablation, vaporization, and coagulation of soft tissue. These are therapeutic actions, not diagnostic ones.

No

The device description clearly outlines a hardware-based surgical laser system with a console, fiber-optic delivery, foot switch, and key interlock. It is not solely software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes a surgical laser system used for direct interaction with soft tissue within the body (incision, excision, ablation, vaporization, coagulation). This is an in vivo application.
  • Device Description: The description details a surgical laser system that delivers a laser beam to the treatment site via a fiber optic. This is consistent with a surgical tool used on a living patient.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing samples taken from the body (blood, urine, tissue samples, etc.) or performing tests in vitro (in a lab setting).

IVD devices are designed to perform tests on samples taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device is a surgical instrument used directly on the patient.

N/A

Intended Use / Indications for Use

For use in general surgery for the incision, excision, ablation, vaporization, coagulation of soft tissue. For use in dermatology for incision, excision, ablation and for use in doming hemostasis of soft tissue.

§ 878.4810 Laser surgical instrument for use in general and plastic surgery and in dermatology.

(a)
Identification. (1) A carbon dioxide laser for use in general surgery and in dermatology is a laser device intended to cut, destroy, or remove tissue by light energy emitted by carbon dioxide.(2) An argon laser for use in dermatology is a laser device intended to destroy or coagulate tissue by light energy emitted by argon.
(b)
Classification. (1) Class II.(2) Class I for special laser gas mixtures used as a lasing medium for this class of lasers. The devices subject to this paragraph (b)(2) are exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter, subject to the limitations in § 878.9.
