Dear Daniel Kamm:
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. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. 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. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls.

parameters, such as laser power. User-friendly menu navigation ensures a reliable operation while allowing physicians to concentrate on the essential aspects of treatment. The fiber-coupled semiconductor laser diodes convert electrical energy to coherent laser radiation with the wavelength of 445 nm (aiming beam 635 nm). A beam transporting system delivers this energy to affected surfaces and organs. Depending on the model, the LEONARDO® Mini Blue laser has the following maximum laser output power:
LEONARDO® Mini Blue: 10W@445nm
LEONARDO® Mini Blue is available as a single-wavelength device with 445 nm. All LEONARDO® Mini Blue laser can be operated in continuous mode. Additional special treatment modes for specific treatment procedures or in combination with corresponding application fibers are available, depending on the configuration of the unit. For safety reasons, the LEONARDO® Mini Blue laser is equipped with a system for automatic recognition of the optical fibers used. Application fibers from CeramOptec have coding for communicating with the laser device.
