Intended Use

The LightLance™ Laser Skin Perforator is intended to be used for ablation of skin tissue to establish capillary blood access. The LightLance™ Laser Skin Perforator general indication for use is for the perforation of skin to draw capillary blood for screening purposes. The device is specifically indicated for obtaining capillary blood samples for subsequent analysis of blood glucose concentration in both institutional and home settings.

Device Story

LightLance™ Laser Skin Perforator uses pulsed Er:YAG laser (2940 nm) to ablate small hole in skin; provides capillary blood access for glucose monitoring. Used in institutional and home settings; operated by patients or healthcare providers. Device produces single laser pulse; enables blood collection for subsequent analysis. Benefits patient by providing alternative to mechanical lancets for blood sampling.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Device tested according to international standards equivalent to IEC 601. No clinical data presented.

Technological Characteristics

Pulsed erbium-doped yttrium-aluminum-garnet (Er:YAG) laser; 2940 nm wavelength. Single pulse output. Class II device. Tested to IEC 601 standards.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients requiring capillary blood sampling for blood glucose concentration analysis in institutional and home settings.

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.

The LightLance™ Laser Skin Perforator substantially equivalent to the current, legally marketed LASETTE™ (k983673) and (k981746). The LightLance™ Laser Skin Perforator has the same intended use and general and specific indications as both of predicated Lasette devices. These devices have very similar principles of operation and technological characteristics. The minor technological differences do not raise any new questions of safety and effectiveness. Performance data demonstrates that LightLance™ is as safe and effective as the Lasette. #### Device Description: 4. The LightLance™ Laser Skin Perforator is a pulsed erbium doped yittrium-aluminumgamet (Er: YAG) laser. It outputs a single pulse of laser light with a wavelength of 2940 nm, which ablates a small hole in the skin to a depth sufficient to access capillary blood. 510(k) for the LightLance™ Laser Skin Perforator 000161 {2}------------------------------------------------ 01304 3/3 ## 5.
