The Sapphire ST Portable Diode Laser is comprised of three basic parts: the control box ("control module") with microprocessor and user interface for selection of mode (continuous wave or pulsed) and laser output to provide visual indications of power settings and of the unit's status, and features the unit's power ON/OFF switch, footswitch jack and key switch; the second component is the corded laser handpiece that houses the laser working beam and aiming beam diodes and control board, optics and harat sink, on/off switch, and the disposable fiberoptic tip assembly. An optional footswitch is available that plugs into the control module and can be used to activate the laser working beam instead of the handpiece on/off actuator. Electrical power is taken from the AC/DC Power Supply that plugs into a standard electrical outlet and charges a 15W, 5 VDC lithium-ion battery that generates 4 amps used to drive the diode laser.
## Conformity to International Standards
The Sapphire ST Portable Diode Laser complies with the performance requirements listed in 21 CFR 1040.10 and 1040.11, with permissible deviations pursuant to laser Notice 50, dated July 26, 2001. Additionally, the subject device has been shown to conform to the same international electrical safety standards for electrical medical devices in general, and lasers in particular, as the predicate devices: IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-2-2, IEC 60825-1, and IEC 60601-2-22.
## Comparative Performance Data
The Sapphire ST Portable Diode Laser has been tested side-by-side against one of the predicate devices. Measurements of the output of the subject device's working beam ranging from 0.1 to 3.0W output in Continuous Wave and Pulse modes were shown to vary from the unit's settings by an average of only 1.4% in CW and 0.5% in P compared to the predicate's variance of 2.2% in CW and 2.7% in P. The intended performance of these devices, based on IEC 60601-2-22, is that laser output should vary from the device's setting by less than ± 20% of the setting. Both the subject and predicate devices have been shown to satisfy this standard, with the subject device demonstrating less variability (more control) than the cleared predicate device.

#### Conclusion
The subject device shares the same principle of operation as the three predicate devices. All arc diode lasers that emit radiant energy at approximately 808 nm with outputs that range from 0.1 to 5.0W. All deliver collimated laser energy to subject target tissue via 400 um fiberoptic tips controlled by trained, experienced clinicians. All share the same indications for use in dental intraoral soft tissue general, oral maxilla-facial and cosmetic surgery. All have been found to satisfy international safety standards relating to electrical medical devices in general and medical lasers in particular. All share the similar safety labeling, device interlocks, and associated safety features. Both the subject and a predicate device's output were measured and compared to their settings to determine the accuracy of the devices' controls. Both met international standards pertaining to accuracy of output of the working beam, but the difference between the subject device's output and its setting was much less than the predicate's, demonstrating not only conformance to the standard, but also superior control over laser emissions.
The Sapphire ST Portable Diode Laser device shares intended uses, principle of operation, technical attributes, functional capabilities, and performance characteristics with the listed predicate devices. Both the subject and predicate devices have been shown to comply with applicable Federal and international safety and performance standards. The Sapphire ST Portable Laser is substantially equivalent to the listed predicate laser surgical devices and does not raise any issues of safety or effectiveness.
