The description focuses on the laser's physical action and does not mention any computational or learning capabilities.
No
The device is used to obtain blood samples for diagnostic analysis, not to treat a condition or restore health.
No.
The device is used to obtain blood samples for subsequent analysis of blood glucose, but it does not perform the analysis itself. Therefore, it is not a diagnostic device.
No
The device description explicitly states it is a "portable battery operated laser device," indicating it is a hardware device that uses laser technology.
Based on the provided information, the Cell Robotics Lasette Laser Skin Perforator is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: IVDs are devices used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- Device Function: The Lasette Laser Skin Perforator's function is to obtain the blood sample. It is a tool for sample collection, not for the analysis of the sample itself.
- Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states "for obtaining capillary blood samples for subsequent analysis of blood glucose concentration". The analysis is done subsequently, implying a separate process and potentially a separate device (like a glucose meter).
Therefore, the Lasette is a sample collection device, which is distinct from an IVD that performs the analysis of the sample.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
Ablation of skin tissue to establish capillary blood access. The Cell Robotics Lasette Laser Skin Perforator is indicated for obtaining capillary blood samples for subsequent analysis of blood glucose concentration, in both institutional and at-home settings.

Dear Ms. White:
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 requirement, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic (QS) 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 devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations.
