The summary describes a fiber delivery system for lasers used in surgery. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any other technology that would typically indicate the presence of AI/ML. The device's function is purely mechanical/optical for delivering laser energy.
Yes
The device is described as being used in "General Surgery as well as multiple surgical specialties" to achieve "tissue effects of incision, excision, vaporization and coagulation of tissue," which are therapeutic actions.
No
Explanation: The device is described as a fiber delivery system used for surgical procedures (incison, excision, vaporization, and coagulation of tissue) with laser systems, not for diagnosing conditions.
No
The device description clearly states it is a "Fiber Delivery System" and "Contact Tips," which are physical components used to deliver laser energy. This is hardware, not software.
Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device is for surgical procedures (incision, excision, vaporization, and coagulation of tissue) on various anatomical sites within the human body. This is a direct interaction with living tissue, not the examination of samples taken from the body.
- Device Description: The description reinforces the surgical application of the device, focusing on its use with laser systems for tissue effects.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue samples, etc.), detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information based on in vitro testing.
IVD devices are specifically designed to perform tests on samples taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device's function is entirely focused on surgical intervention.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The SLT Select Fiber Delivery Systems and Contact Tips are intended to be used in general surgery as well as multiple surgical specialties such as Urology, Gynecology, ENT, Head and Neck, Gastroenterology, Neurosurgery, Thorasic surgery, Pulmonology, Plastic surgery and Orthopedics. The fiber delivery systems and tips achieve the precise tissue effects of incision, excision, vaporization and coagulation of tissue. The universal SMA-905 connector allows this family of fiber delivery systems to be used with any laser system of 532 to 1064 nm wavelength which accepts the SMA-905 connector.
INDICATIONS FOR USE
The SLT Select Fiber Delivery Systems and Contact Tips are indicated for use in General Surgery as well as multiple surgical specialties such as Urology, Gynecology, ENT, Head and Neck, Gastroenterology, Neurosurgery, Thorasic surgery, Pulmonology, Plastic Surgery and Orthopedics. The fiber delivery systems achieve the precise tissue effects of incision, excision, vaporization and coagulation of tissue. The universal SMA-905 connector allows this family of fiber delivery systems and tips to be used with any laser system meeting the following requirements:
Laser must operate at a wavelength between 532 and 1064 nanometers. Laser must operate in Continuous Wave (CW) or Quasi Continuous Wave (Quasi CW) mode. Laser must have a numerical apertures of 0.39 or less Laser must accept the universal SMA-905 connector.
Fiber Delivery Systems are cleared for use for the particular indications of the laser system to which they are attached.
This device is a prescription device.

510(k) SUMMARY OF SAFETY AND EFFECTIVENESS
FEB 2 7 1998
The SLT Select Fiber Delivery Systems and Contact Tips are intended to be used in general surgery as well as multiple surgical specialties such as Urology, Gynecology, ENT, Head and Neck, Gastroenterology, Neurosurgery, Thorasic surgery, Pulmonology, Plastic surgery and Orthopedics. The fiber delivery systems and tips achieve the precise tissue effects of incision, excision, vaporization and coagulation of tissue. The universal SMA-905 connector allows this family of fiber delivery systems to be used with any laser system of 532 to 1064 nm wavelength which accepts the SMA-905 connector.
Description statements were not relied on to show substantial equivalence to legally marketed devices; instead, performance data from device validation is used. The comparison of intended use and technological features of this device to other legally marketed devices taken together with validation results indicate that this device is substantially equivalent to legally marketed predicate devices with regards to safety, effectiveness and intended use.
The intended use of this device is the same as the intended use of other laser fiber delivery systems and identical to the proprietary SLT Products currently marketed to provide the same tissue effects. Therefore, all aspect of this device have predicates which are well accepted in the clinical community. This product simply provides the ability to use the SLT fiber delivery systems with any 532 to 1064 nm wavelength laser system which accepts the SMA-905 connector.
