The Diomed D15 plus and D30 plus and EVLT Kits are indicated for treatment of incompetence and reflux of superficial veins in the lower extremity. ## Device Story Diode laser system (D15Plus/D30Plus) delivers pulsed or continuous wave radiation via fiber optic handpiece/optical fiber. EVLT procedure kit includes bare tip fiber (400-1000 micron), introducer sheath (4-5 Fr), percutaneous entry needle (19G), and guide wire (0.035"). Used by physicians in clinical settings for endovenous laser treatment of superficial vein reflux. Laser energy induces thermal ablation of the vein; output controlled by physician to treat incompetent veins. Benefits include minimally invasive management of lower extremity varicosities. ## Clinical Evidence Clinical data presented on 213 subjects treated with the Diomed D15Plus Laser System and EVLT Kit for endovenous laser treatment. ## Technological Characteristics Diode laser; pulsed radiation (up to 119 J/cm² for D15Plus, 400 J/cm² for D30Plus) or continuous wave (0.5-15 W for D15Plus, 0.5-30 W for D30Plus). Fiber optic delivery system. Components include bare tip fiber, introducer sheath, percutaneous needle, and guide wire. ## Regulatory 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. ## Predicate Devices - Diomed EVLT Kit and D15Plus and D30Plus Diode Lasers ([K023543](/device/K023543.md)) - Diomed 810 nm Surgical Lasers and EVLT Procedure Kit ([K012398](/device/K012398.md)) - Diomed 15Plus and Diomed 30Plus Lasers ([K013499](/device/K013499.md)) ## Submission Summary (Full Text) > This content was OCRed from public FDA records by [Innolitics](https://innolitics.com).
