Intended Use
The Indigo 830e LaserOptic Treatment System with Diffuser-Tip™ Fiberoptic is indicated for the treatment of symptoms due to urinary outflow obstruction secondary to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) in men over the age of 50 with prostates with median and/or lateral lobes ranging in total volume from 20-85 cc and general surgery, general urological and for for gastroenterological procedures including the incision, excision, and ablation of soft tissues; and coagulative necrosis and interstitial laser coagulation of soft tissues.
Device Description
When used as a general surgical instrument, the laser is able to provide power to cut or coagulate tissues. When used as a coagulating device, the Indigo laser in conjunction with a diffusing fiberoptic provides interstitial laser coagulation. The process of interstitial laser coagulation relies on quickly elevating tissue to a temperature range (Appox. 60 to 100°C) where tissue necrosis rapidly occurs, but below temperatures at which carbonization begins.
More Information

No
The document describes a laser treatment system for tissue ablation and coagulation, focusing on the physical interaction of the laser with tissue. There is no mention of AI or ML in the intended use, device description, or performance studies.

Yes
The device is used for the treatment of symptoms due to urinary outflow obstruction secondary to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and general surgical procedures, which are therapeutic interventions.

No

The device is indicated for the treatment of symptoms due to urinary outflow obstruction, as well as general surgical, general urological, and gastroenterological procedures involving incision, excision, ablation, coagulative necrosis, and interstitial laser coagulation of soft tissues. Its function is to cut or coagulate tissues by elevating tissue temperature. It does not mention any diagnostic capabilities.

No

The device description clearly describes a laser system with a fiberoptic, which are hardware components, 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 system for treating symptoms of BPH and performing surgical procedures on soft tissues. This involves direct interaction with the patient's body for therapeutic purposes.
  • Device Description: The description details how the laser is used to cut, coagulate, and cause tissue necrosis. These are all actions performed on living tissue within the body.
  • Anatomical Site: The anatomical sites mentioned (prostates, soft tissues) are within the human body.
  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This device does not perform such tests.

The Indigo 830e LaserOptic Treatment System is a therapeutic device used for surgical procedures, not a diagnostic device that analyzes samples outside the body.

Dear Ms. Starowicz:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to 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 (Act). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. 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.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations. Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the current Good Manufacturing Practice requirements , as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic (OS) inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for
