    Device Description

    The Darwin is a Class II Medical Device that combines multiple technologies into one platform for use in dermatologic and aesthetic procedures. The system is comprised of a micro-processor-controlled and userfriendly console that houses the power supply, the electronics and the user interface. It has 4 handpieces that are attached to the console, which can be selected for use in treatment through the user interface. There are 4 separate handpieces. Each handpiece has its own indication for use. - . Diode Laser Handpiece - IPL Handpiece - RF Microneedling Handpiece . - Thermal RF The Diode Laser handpiece uses laser light in the 808nm wavelength for hair removal. The laser removes hair, employing a method knows as selective photothermolysis. This involves raising the temperature of the hair follicle without damaging the epidermis and the surrounding tissue. Delivering pulsed light using a coherent light source of 808nm wavelength, the diode laser handpiece is intended for hair removal and permanent hair reduction on skin types (Fitzpatrick skin types I - V). The user can choose from two modes: hair removal shot (HRS) and hair removal moving (HRM) when using the Diode laser handpiece. The IPL Handpiece produces light pulses with a specific duration, intensity, and spectral distribution allowing for a controlled and confined energy delivery into tissue. IPL use in dermatology relies on the basis that certain targets for energy absorption (chromophores) are capable of absorbing energy from this broad spectrum of light wavelength (absorptive band) without exclusively being targeted by their highest absorption peak. The IPL Handpiece has various filters to create different wavelengths. The handpiece is Intended for use in aesthetic and cosmetic applications requiring selective photothermolysis (photocoagulation or coagulation) and hemostasis of soft tissue in the medical specialties of general and plastic surgery, and dermatology. Each wavelength has its own indications for use, which are listed in the tables below. Filters for the non-invasive IPL handpiece include 430nm, 515nm, 560nm, 585, 640nm, and 700nm. The user can select two treatment modes: ST (Skin Type) and HR (Hair Removal) when using the IPL handpiece. The RF Microneedling handpiece operates using sterile, single-use, multi-needle tips (10 pin and 25 pin) and is intended for use in dermatologic and general surgical procedures for electro-coagulation and hemostasis. The RF Microneedling handpiece generates radiofrequency (RF) energy by means of bipolar RF at 2 MHz. The RF handpiece penetrates micro needles directly into the skin and delivers high frequency energy. This energy flows through the electrode to the tissue and uses heat generated by load or contact resistance to induce coagulation. The RF energy is delivered through the skin into the target tissue via a handpiece equipped with an electrode tip. As the RF energy passes through the tissue, it generates an electrothermal reaction which is capable of coagulating the tissue. The RF Microneedling Handpiece has a single use sterile disposable cartridge. This is the only sterile component on the device. The RF Microneedling handpieces are not intended to be sterilized or disinfected by the end user. The Thermal RF Handpiece is indicated for heating for the purpose of elevating tissue temperature for selected medical conditions such as temporary relief of pain, muscle spasms, and increase in local circulation.

    The RF MicroNeedling Handpiece is indicated for:
    Use in dermatologic and general surgical procedures for electro-coagulation and hemostasis

    Device Description

    The Darwin is a Class II Medical Device that combines multiple technologies into one platform for use in dermatologic and aesthetic procedures. The system is comprised of a micro-processor-controlled and user-friendly console that houses the power supply, the electronics, and the user interface. It then has 3 handpieces that are attached to the console, and through the user interface can be selected for use in the treatments.
    There are 3 separate handpieces. Each handpiece has its own indication for use.

    • Diode Laser Handpiece
    • IPL Handpiece
    • RF Microneedling Handpiece ●

    The Diode Laser handpiece uses laser light in the 808nm wavelength for hair removal. The laser eliminates hair, employing a method knows as selective photothermolysis. This involves disabling hair regrowth mechanism by raising the temperature of the hair follicle high enough to irreversibly damage the follicle's germinative cells without damaging the epidermis and the surrounding tissue. The germinative root resides inside the follicle but is located to the outer follicles sheath. Therefore, the complete follicle volume must be heated above 70° C to accomplish permanent destruction of all stem cell.
    Delivering a pulsed light using a coherent light source of 808nm wavelength, the diode laser handpiece is intended for hair removal and permanent hair reduction on skin types (Fitzpatrick skin types I - V). The user can choose from two modes: hair removal shot (HRS) and hair removal moving (HRM) when using the Diode laser handpiece.

    The IPL Handpiece produces light pulses with a specific duration, intensity, and spectral distribution allowing for a controlled and confined energy delivery into tissue. IPL use in dermatology relies on the basis that certain targets for energy absorption (chromophores) are capable of absorbing energy from this broad spectrum of light wavelength (absorptive band) without exclusively being targeted by their highest absorption peak.
    The IPL Handpiece has various filters to create different wavelengths. The handpiece is Intended for use in aesthetic and cosmetic applications requiring selective photothermolysis (photocoagulation or coagulation) and hemostasis of soft tissue in the medical specialties of general and plastic surgery, and dermatology. Each wavelength has its own indications for use, which are listed in the tables below.
    Filters for the non-invasive IPL handpiece include 430nm, 515nm, 560nm, 585, 640nm, and 700nm. The user can select two treatment modes: ST (Skin Type) and HR (Hair Removal) when using the IPL handpiece.

    The Needle RF handpiece operates using sterile, single-use, multi-needle tips (10 pin and 25 pin) and is intended for use in dermatologic and general surgical procedures for electro-coagulation and hemostasis. The RF Microneedling handpiece generates radiofrequency (RF) energy by means of bipolar RF at 2 MHz.
    The RF handpieces penetrates micro needles directly into the skin and delivers high frequency energy. This energy flows through the electrode to the tissue and uses heat generated by load or contact resistance to induce coagulation. The RF energy is delivered through the skin into the target tissue via a handpiece equipped with an electrode tip. As the RF energy passes through the tissue, it generates an electrothermal reaction which is capable of coagulating the tissue.
    The RF Microneedling Handpiece has a single use sterile disposable cartridge. This is the only sterile component on the device. No handpieces or accessories are intended to be sterilized or disinfect by the end user. There are no components of the Darwin that are reusable.

    AI/ML Overview

    This document, a 510(k) premarket notification for the Darwin device, primarily focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices based on comparable technological characteristics and safety standards. It does not contain information about a study proving the device meets specific acceptance criteria related to its performance in terms of accuracy, sensitivity, or specificity, which would typically be seen for AI/ML-based medical devices.

    The "Performance Data" section (VIII) describes electrical safety and electromagnetic compatibility testing, as well as thermal testing for the RF Microneedling handpiece. This type of performance data is focused on the device's physical and functional safety and effectiveness, rather than clinical efficacy or diagnostic accuracy as might be evaluated for an AI algorithm.

    Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information for acceptance criteria and a study that proves the device meets those criteria in the context of an AI/ML algorithm's performance. The document describes a device that is intended for aesthetic and surgical procedures using laser, IPL, and RF microneedling technologies, not an AI or algorithm-driven device that would have metrics like sensitivity, specificity, or human reader improvement with AI assistance.

    To directly answer your request based on the provided text, but noting the absence of AI/ML performance metrics:

    1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance:
      The document focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices rather than listing specific, quantitative performance acceptance criteria for clinical outcomes like an AI/ML system would. The "Performance Data" section primarily addresses safety and functional performance testing.

      Acceptance Criteria (Inferred from testing)Reported Device Performance (Summary)
      IEC 60601-1 (Basic Safety & Essential Performance)Performed, demonstrating compliance.

    2. Sample sized used for the test set and the data provenance:

      • Sample Size: Not specified quantitatively for any human subjects or patients. For the thermal testing, "in vivo pig skin and in vitro liver and kidney tissues" were used, but specific numbers of subjects/samples are not provided.
      • Data Provenance: Not applicable in the context of clinical patient data for AI validation. The testing described is laboratory/benchtop testing and animal model (pig skin) testing.
    3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts:
      Not applicable. This device is not an AI/ML diagnostic or prognostic tool that requires expert-established ground truth from images or data. Ground truth in this context would relate to the physical effects of the device (e.g., thermal lesion formation), not interpretations by human experts.

    4. Adjudication method (e.g., 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set:
      Not applicable. This is not an AI/ML device requiring human annotation for ground truth establishment.

    5. If a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance:
      Not applicable. The Darwin device is not an AI-assisted diagnostic or prognostic tool. No human-in-the-loop study comparing human performance with and without AI assistance was described.

    6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:
      Not applicable. This device does not feature a standalone algorithm that would be tested for its performance.

    7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.):
      For the thermal testing, the ground truth was the direct observation and measurement of thermal lesions in biological tissues (pig skin, liver, kidney). This is an objective physical outcome.

    8. The sample size for the training set:
      Not applicable. This device is not an AI/ML system that undergoes a "training set" phase.

    9. How the ground truth for the training set was established:
      Not applicable, as there is no training set for an AI/ML algorithm described in this submission.

    AI/ML Overview

    This document is a 510(k) Summary for the Bare: 808 Laser System (K193446), a device intended for permanent hair reduction.

    Here's an analysis of the provided text regarding acceptance criteria and the study:

    1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance:

    The document explicitly states that a human clinical study was not required because the device is considered substantially equivalent to predicate devices. Therefore, there is no direct table of acceptance criteria for diagnostic/performance metrics (e.g., sensitivity, specificity) derived from a clinical study for the Bare: 808 device itself.

    Instead, the "Performance Data" section lists compliance with relevant IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) standards for electrical safety and electromagnetic compatibility as the acceptance criteria for these aspects. The reported performance is that the device was tested and complied with these standards.

    Acceptance Criteria (Performance Data)Reported Device Performance
    IEC 60601-1:2005 (Third Edition) + CORR.1:2006 + CORR.2:2007 + A1:2012 (or IEC 60601-1:2012 reprint): Test for Medical Electrical equipment was performed for General Requirements for basic safety and essential performance.Complied
    IEC 60601-1-2:2014, EN 60601-1-2:2015 Test for Medical Equipment for General Requirements for basic safety and essential performance: electromagnetic compatibilityComplied
    IEC 60601-2-22:2007 + A1:2012: Test for Particular requirements for basic safety and essential performance of surgical, cosmetic, therapeutic and diagnostic laser equipmentComplied

    For its intended use and indications for use, the acceptance criterion implicitly is substantial equivalence to the predicate device (Soprano Ice K140009), meaning it performs as safely and effectively. The document provides a comparison table of technical specifications between the Bare: 808 and the predicate device to demonstrate this equivalence, rather than a direct performance metric.

    2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance:

    • No clinical test set was used for the K193446 submission. The document states: "A human clinical study was not required as the device is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices."
    • Data provenance for a clinical test set is therefore not applicable to this submission. The performance data provided is related to engineering and safety standards compliance.

    3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts:

    • Not applicable, as no clinical test set was required or used.

    4. Adjudication method for the test set:

    • Not applicable, as no clinical test set was required or used.

    5. If a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance:

    • No MRMC study was done, as this device is a laser system for hair removal, not an AI-assisted diagnostic device.

    6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:

    • Not applicable, as this device is a laser system, not an algorithm.

    7. The type of ground truth used:

    • The "ground truth" for this submission primarily relies on compliance with established international safety and performance standards (IEC) for medical electrical equipment and laser devices, as well as the technical specifications and intended use of a legally marketed predicate device to establish substantial equivalence.

    8. The sample size for the training set:

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided text is a 510(k) premarket notification summary for the Lucent : IPL device. This document focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices rather than proving the device meets specific acceptance criteria through a clinical study.

    Therefore, many of the requested elements for describing "acceptance criteria and the study that proves the device meets the acceptance criteria" are explicitly stated as not applicable or not required in this type of submission.

    Here's a breakdown based on the provided document:


    Acceptance Criteria and Device Performance for Lucent : IPL

    The device, Lucent : IPL, did not undergo a de novo clinical study with specific acceptance criteria in the typical sense for this 510(k) submission. Instead, its performance and safety are established by demonstrating substantial equivalence to legally marketed predicate devices. The "acceptance criteria" here are implicitly linked to showing that its technical specifications and indications for use fall within the established range or scope of the predicates, and that any differences do not raise new questions of safety or effectiveness.

    1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance:

    Since no specific performance metrics with predefined acceptance criteria from a de novo study are presented, the "acceptance criteria" are the ranges and types of indications provided by the predicate devices. The "reported device performance" is the Lucent : IPL's own specifications.

    Summary of the Study Proving Device Meets Acceptance Criteria:

    The "study" proving the Lucent : IPL meets acceptance criteria is the 510(k) premarket notification review process, which involved:

    • Comparison to Predicate Devices: The submission meticulously compares the Lucent : IPL's technical specifications (wavelength, intended use, indications for use, pulse width, energy density, spot size) to two predicate devices:
      • Alma Harmony XL Multi-Application Platform (K072564)
      • Lumenis M22 System (K142860)
    • Performance Testing (Non-Clinical): The document states that the following performance data was provided:
      • ES60601-1:2005/(R)2012 and A1:2012 Test for Medical Electrical equipment (General Requirements for basic safety and essential performance)
      • IEC 60601-1-2 Edition 4.0 2014-02 Test for Medical Equipment (General Requirements for basic safety and essential performance: electromagnetic compatibility)
      • IEC 60601-2-57 Edition 1.0 2011-01 (Particular requirements for the basic safety and essential performance of non-laser light source equipment intended for therapeutic, diagnostic, monitoring and cosmetic/aesthetic use)

    The conclusion, explicitly stated in the document, is: "The Lucent : IPL's intended use, indications for use and technical specifications are substantially equivalent to the Harmony XL Multi-Application Platform and the M22 System." This "substantial equivalence" is the "proof" accepted by the FDA for clearance in this case, rather than a de novo clinical study with specific performance metrics.
