Intended Use

The Auriga XL laser system including a fiber optic delivery system is intended to be used in surgical procedures such as open, laparoscopic and endoscopic, to perform incision, excision, resection, ablation, vaporization, coagulation and hemostasis of soft tissue in medical specialities including: Urology, Urinary Lithotripsy, Gastroenterology, Arthroscopy, Discectomy, Pulmonary, Gynaecology, ENT, Dermatology, Plastic Surgery and General Surgery.

Device Story

Auriga XL is a holmium laser system (approx. 2.1 µm wavelength) for surgical tissue management. System components include a laser unit with control panel, foot switch, and optical application fiber. Operated by physicians in OR, clinic, or endoscopic settings. Laser energy is delivered via fiber to target tissue for incision, excision, resection, ablation, vaporization, coagulation, or hemostasis. Clinical benefit includes precise tissue removal and lithotripsy across multiple specialties. Output is controlled by the surgeon via the user interface and foot switch; clinical decision-making relies on surgeon visualization and procedural requirements.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Laboratory testing verified that the Auriga XL met all design specifications and is substantially equivalent to the predicate device. No clinical information is required.

Technological Characteristics

Holmium laser system; wavelength ~2.1 µm. Components: laser system, control panel, foot switch, optical application fiber. Standards: ISO 14971:2006, IEC 60601-1:2005, IEC 60601-1-2:2007, IEC 60601-1-6:2006, IEC 62366:2007, IEC 60601-2-22:2005, IEC 60825-1:2007, IEC 62304:2006.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients requiring surgical incision, excision, resection, ablation, vaporization, coagulation, and hemostasis of soft, cartilaginous, and bony tissue across various specialties including urology (lithotripsy, BPH, tumors), gastroenterology, arthroscopy, spinal surgery, thoracic/pulmonary, gynecology, ENT, dermatology, and plastic 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.
