Intended Use
For use in general surgery for the incision, excision, ablation, vaporization, coagulation of soft tissue.
Device Story
Compact, portable, self-contained surgical laser system; produces variable 1-6 watt infrared radiation beam at 1320nm wavelength. System emits pulsed laser beam delivered via fiber optic delivery system; includes 0.5 mW HeNe aiming beam (632.8nm). Components include laser console, fiber-optic delivery system, foot switch, and removable electronic key interlock. Used by clinicians in surgical/dermatological settings for soft tissue incision, excision, ablation, vaporization, and coagulation. Safety features protect operator/patient from high voltage and laser emissions.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical performance data provided. No nonclinical performance data provided.
Technological Characteristics
Nd:YAG laser system; 1320nm wavelength; 1-6 watt output; pulsed beam. Includes fiber optic delivery system, HeNe aiming beam (632.8nm), foot switch, and electronic key interlock. Compact, portable form factor.
Indications for Use
Indicated for use in dermatology for incision, excision, ablation and vaporization with hemostatis of soft tissue.
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.

Device Description: The New Star Model 130 laser is a compact, portable, self-contained surgical laser system that produces a variable 1-6 watt beam of infrared radiation at 1320nm wavelength. The system emits a pulsed laser beam which is delivered to the treatment site using a fiber optic delivery system. A visible light 0.5 mW HeNe laser beam at 632.8nm is used for aiming.
The system is comprised of a laser console, a fiber-optic delivery system, a foot switch and a removable electronic key interlock. The system provides safety features that are designed to protect the operator and patient from high voltage and laser emissions.
