The document describes a laser system for soft tissue procedures and does not mention any AI or ML capabilities.
Yes.
The device's stated "Intended Use / Indications for Use" explicitly lists various medical conditions and procedures across multiple surgical specialties (e.g., Dermatology, General Surgery, Gynecology, Orthopedic Surgery), indicating its use in treating and managing health conditions.
Yes
The "Indications for Use" section under "Dermatology Plastic Surgery" explicitly states "performing: diagnostic biopsies," indicating a diagnostic function.
No
The device description explicitly states "Protégé II (tm) Er: YAG Laser System and Accessories (Upgrade)", indicating a hardware-based laser system with accessories, not a software-only device.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes the device as a surgical laser system for the incision, excision, vaporization, ablation, and coagulation of soft tissue. These are all procedures performed directly on the patient's 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.
- Device Description: The description confirms it's a laser system, not a diagnostic test kit or instrument.
- Lack of Diagnostic Language: The text does not mention any diagnostic purposes, analysis of biological samples, or providing diagnostic information.
Therefore, the Protégé II Er:YAG Laser System is a therapeutic device used for surgical procedures, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Dear Dr. Chou:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the devices referenced above and we have determined the devices are 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 devices, 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 devices are classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), they may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your devices 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 (OS) 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. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your devices in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submissions does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542

of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations.
This letter will allow you to begin marketing your devices as described in your 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your devices to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your devices and thus, permits your devices to proceed to the market.
If you desire specific advice for your devices on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801 and additionally 809.10 for in vitro diagnostic devices), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4595. Additionally, for questions on the promotion and advertising of your devices, please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4639. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR 807.97). Other general information on your responsibilities under the Act may be obtained from the Division of Small Manufacturers Assistance at its toll-free number (800) 638-2041 or (301) 443-6597 or at its internet address "http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/dsmamain.html".
