Device Story

50W Ceralas D 1950nm Diode Laser (Model D1950) is a surgical laser system; delivers laser energy to target soft, mucosal, fatty, or cartilaginous tissue. Used by physicians in OR or clinic settings for incision, excision, resection, ablation, vaporization, coagulation, and hemostasis. Device transforms electrical power into 1950nm laser output; energy absorption by tissue facilitates surgical effects. Healthcare providers operate device via console controls; output allows precise tissue management during endoscopic or open procedures. Benefits include minimally invasive access and controlled tissue interaction.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Comparative study of vaporization, cutting, and coagulation rates between the Ceralas D1950 and a 2010nm laser using potato slices and porcine muscle, liver, and skin tissue. Results demonstrated substantially equivalent performance and tissue effects.

Technological Characteristics

Diode laser; 1950nm wavelength; 50W maximum power output. Used for surgical incision, excision, resection, ablation, vaporization, coagulation, and hemostasis. Class II device.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients requiring open, laparoscopic, or endoscopic surgical procedures (incision, excision, resection, ablation, vaporization, coagulation, hemostasis) across urology, gastroenterology, thoracic/pulmonary, gynecology, ENT, dermatology/plastic surgery, orthopedics, and general surgery.

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.

# Technological Characteristics

The Ceralas D1950 is a diode laser operating at 1950nm with a maximum power output of 50W.

# Performance Data

Bench testing was performed to compare the vaporization, cutting, and coagulation rates of the Ceralas D1950 and a 2010nm laser. The lasers were directed at potato slices and porcine muscle tissue to evaluate vaporization, and cutting and coagulation were evaluated with porcine liver, skin, and muscle tissue. Similar parameters were employed with each laser to test the effects of the Ceralas D1950 and the 2010nm lasers on the target tissue for each of these tests. The testing demonstrated substantially equivalent performance and tissue effects between the Ceralas D1950 and the 2010mm laser device.

# Substantial Equivalence

The Ceralas D1950 is as safe and effective as AllMed Revolix Laser Systems (K033423, K051167, K070476). The Ceralas D1950 has the same intended uses and indications, and similar technological characteristics, and principles of operation as its predicate devices. Thus, the Ceralas D1950 is substantially equivalent.

Dear Mr. Kahan:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate 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) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). 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 (PMA), 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 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
