Intended Use
The Accutech Family of PowerFlex laser delivery devices (bare fibers, sidefire fibers, ENT fibers, and Endoprobes) are indicated for incision/ excision, ablation, and coagulation (hemostasis) when attached to cleared laser systems such as KTP, Nd:YAG, Argon, Diode and Ho:YAG wavelengths (488 - 2100 nm) for the indications for which the lasers have been cleared, including: general and cosmetic surgery, intraoral soft-tissue, otolaryngology, arthroscopy, gastroenterology, general surgery, dermatology & plastic surgery, neurosurgery, gynecology, urology, ophthalmology and pulmonary surgery.
Device Story
Accutech Family of PowerFlex Laser Delivery Devices are fiber optic accessories for surgical lasers. Configurations include bare fibers, sidefire fibers (with glass capillary tip and adjustable handle), and ENT fibers/endoprobes (with stainless steel needle/cannula). Devices connect to KTP, Nd:YAG, Argon, Diode, and Ho:YAG laser systems (488-2100 nm) via SMA connectors to deliver energy to target tissue. Optional RFID connector available for specific diode laser systems. Used by physicians in clinical settings (OR, clinic) for incision, excision, ablation, and hemostasis. Device acts as a conduit for laser energy; clinical decision-making relies on the primary laser system's output and the physician's manual manipulation of the fiber tip. Benefits include precise tissue interaction for various surgical specialties.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data provided; substantial equivalence is based on technological characteristics and intended use comparisons.
Technological Characteristics
Fiber optic delivery system; components include glass fibers, plastic jackets, stainless steel needles/cannulas, glass capillary tubes, and SMA connectors. Optional RFID connector for laser system compatibility. Energy source: external laser systems (KTP, Nd:YAG, Argon, Diode, Ho:YAG).
Indications for Use
Indicated for incision, excision, ablation, and coagulation in patients undergoing procedures in general/cosmetic surgery, intraoral soft-tissue, otolaryngology, arthroscopy, gastroenterology, dermatology, plastic surgery, neurosurgery, gynecology, urology, ophthalmology, and pulmonary surgery using compatible laser systems.
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.

Dear Ms. Worden:
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.
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set

forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.
If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801), please contact the Center for Devices and Radiological Health's (CDRH's) Office of Compliance at (240) 276-0115. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21CFR Part 807.97). For questions regarding postmaties surveillance, please contact CDRH's Office of Surveillance and Biometric's (OSB's) Division of Prestmaner, Surveillance at (240) 276-3474.
