Device Story

Novus Spectra is a solid-state, frequency-doubled, green Nd:YAG surgical laser system (532nm) for photothermolysis/photocoagulation of soft tissue. Compatible with slit lamps, LIOs, microfilters, collimated handpieces, fibers, and endocular/endooto probes. Operated by physicians in clinical settings. Features a digital 'closed-loop' control system to manage energy output, pulse duration, and functional parameters, replacing analog systems found in predicate devices. System monitors safety interlocks and displays for user intervention. Digital environment provides improved hazard mitigation and risk management. Output allows precise tissue coagulation, vaporization, or hemostasis, benefiting patients by enabling minimally invasive surgical and therapeutic interventions across multiple specialties.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided. Substantial equivalence is based on technological comparison, functional specifications, and improved hazard mitigation hardware compared to predicate devices.

Technological Characteristics

Solid-state, frequency-doubled Nd:YAG laser; 532nm emission wavelength. Digital closed-loop control system for energy output and pulse duration management. Compatible with various delivery optics (slit lamps, LIOs, fibers, probes). Spot sizes 200-1200 microns. Class II device.

Indications for Use

Indicated for ophthalmic procedures (retinal photocoagulation, trabeculoplasty, iridotomy, diabetic retinopathy, peripheral iridectomy, senile macular degeneration); ENT procedures (stapedectomy, stapedotomy, myringotomies, lysis of adhesions, bleeding control, acoustic neuroma removal, soft tissue adhesion); dermatologic procedures (pigmented/vascular lesions, telangiectasias, cutaneous lesions, flat warts, dermatosis papulosa nigra); and dental procedures (frenectomy, oral mucous cyst treatment, benign vascular lesion treatment, photocoagulation, tissue management/hemostasis, incision/drainage, gingivoplasty/gingivectomy, crown/bridge procedures, hyperplasia treatment, operculectomy, excisional biopsy, free gingival graft adjunct, vestibuloplasty, gutta percha softening, treatment of canker sores/herpetic lesions/aphthous ulcers, and laser-assisted bleaching).

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.

S. A.<br>95051-0901 | |------------------------------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Contact Person: | Karen Baker | | Summary Preparation Date: | October 10, 2002 | | Names: | | | Device Names: | Novus Spectra Laser System | | Primary Classification Name: | 79 GEX, Laser Instrument, Surgical Powered | ## Predicate Devices: Elite Solid State Green Dlode Pumped 532nm Elite Ultra Solid State Green Diode Pumped 532nm Corium 200 Solid State Green Diode Pumped 532nm Corium 400 Solid State Green Diode Pumped 532nm ## Ratlonale for Substantial Equivalence: The Novus Spectra Laser System has the same indications for use as the Elite family of lasers and the Corium series of lasers. They have similar functional elements such as treatment wavelengths, pulse rates, treatment power, spot size and cooling system. Control systems such as the door interlock, and the safety systems and displays are constantly monitored in these systems for user intervention during a procedure or maintenance. ## Description of Submitted Device: The Novus Spectra solid state, frequency-doubled, green Nd:YAG surgical laser system is an instrument used in the photothermolysis (photocoagulation) of soft tissue at en emission wavelength of 532nm. Compatible delivery devices include: slit lamps, slit lamp adapters/attachments, laser indirect ophthalmoscopes (LIO), microfilters, collimated handpieces with spot sizes ranging from 200-1200microns, fibers and endocular and endooto probes. {1}------------------------------------------------ 022327 2/2 ### Indications for Use: Ophthalmic Applications; Ear, Nose and Throat Applications; Dentistry; and Dermatologic Applications. A complete list is contained in the Indications for Use Statement. #### Technological Characteristics and Substantial Equivalence The Novus Spectra Laser System, the Elite family of lasers, and the Corium series deliver the same frequency-doubled Nd:YAG wavelength. Both deliver a 532nm wavelength of similar power and pulses having similar duration in single and repeat modes. The Novus Spectra Laser System is identical to the Elite family of lasers, and the Corium series in terms of its intended uses and functionality. The Novus Spectra improves on the industry-standard digital operating environment present in the Elite to manage energy output, pulse duration and other functional aspects. A digital "closed loop" control system in the Novus Spectra replaces the analog "closed loop" control system in the Elite and Corium. In addition the digital environment improves the overall safety of the system through improved and more rigorously controlled hazard mitigation hardware #### Conclusion The Novus Spectra Laser System is substantially equivalent to the Elite and Corium laser systems that are now in commercial distribution and have been successful in meeting the intended uses. The Novus Spectra has an improved hazard mitigation and risk management operating environment that reduces the level of concern regarding its uses per the Intended Uses document. The Lumenis Novys Spectra shares the same intended use, indications for use, and similar technological characteristics as the predicate laser systems. {2}------------------------------------------------ # DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES Image /page/2/Picture/1 description: The image is a black and white seal for the Department of Health & Human Services - USA.
