Intended Use
The Starlite 2006 will be used with the following lasers for the excision, ablation, vaporization and hemostasis of soft tissue. Diolase ST produced by American Dental Technologies (810 Nm operating wavelength) Twilight produced by Biolase (810 Nm operating wavelength) Diodent produced by Hoya Con Bio (810 Nm operating wavelength) Softlase produced by Zap Lasers (810 Nm operating wavelength) Aurora produced by Premier Lasers (810 Nm operating wavelength) indications of use surnmary statement: The StarLite laser fiber optic can be used for all the of the lasers cited above as well as other diode soft tissue lasers operating using the same wavelengths. The StarLite will become an intergral part of the laser system and by default be cleared for the same exact indications and procedures as the laser it is deployed on.
Device Story
StarLite 2006 is an after-market fiber optic accessory for existing surgical diode laser systems. It functions as a delivery system (optical fiber and connector) to transmit laser energy from the source to the operative site. The device is designed for 'contact mode' operation, where the bare fiber is applied directly to soft tissue. It is compatible with various handpieces via a protective outer buffer/jacket. The device is used in clinical settings by healthcare providers performing soft tissue surgical procedures. It acts as a direct replacement for original equipment manufacturer (OEM) laser fibers. By delivering laser energy, it enables surgical procedures such as excision and hemostasis, providing a functional equivalent to OEM fibers without altering the laser beam's performance.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. No clinical data provided.
Technological Characteristics
Fiber optic assembly including optical fiber and connector. Compatible with 200, 300, 400, and 600 micron diameter hard clad laser fibers. Features a protective outer buffer/jacket compatible with standard handpieces. Sterilization via autoclave flash processing (270°F for 30 minutes) to achieve a sterility assurance level (SAL) of 10^-6.
Indications for Use
Indicated for excision, ablation, vaporization, and hemostasis of soft tissue using compatible diode lasers (810 nm wavelength).
Regulatory Classification
Identification
(1) A carbon dioxide laser for use in general surgery and in dermatology is a laser device intended to cut, destroy, or remove tissue by light energy emitted by carbon dioxide.(2) An argon laser for use in dermatology is a laser device intended to destroy or coagulate tissue by light energy emitted by argon.

### 8. Device Description:
Background. The starLite 2065 is an "after-market" accessory for use with an existing surgical laser system. The device is used as a complete system (optical fiber and connector) The StarLite 2006 IS used as a direct replacement for the laser optical fiber supplied as original equipment or the original equipment laser optical fiber.
One of the primary considerations when using a fiber-optically delivered surgical laser system is that the fiber is capable of delivering the maximum amount of energy the laser is set for minus a small connector loss.
Most fiber based laser systems include a handpiece that clasps or grips the laser fiber on its protective jacket. For this reason the laser fiber must have an outside coating capable of protecting the inner core.
Many procedures call for the use or application of a "bare fiber" to the operative tissue; the so called "contact mode" of operation.
The StarLice is designed using industry standard connectors and optical fiber. The components of this fiber optic assembly are the same as what is currently being used on cleared existing lasers cited above. The protective outside buffer or jacket is compatible with all handpieces designed for this fiber type.
The starLite laser fiber optic is intended for use with lasers that do various surgical procedures. The StarLite is universal in nature and is intended to be used on currently FDA cleared soft tissue lasers. The StarLite assembly is designed to accommodate hard clad faser fibers including 200, 300, 400 and 600 micron diameters.
#### ക് Cleared Indications for use:
The StarLite is cleared for the same cleared indications of use as the laser system to which it is attached.
