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 available 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: The Center for Devices and Radiological Health (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. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. U.S. Food & Drug Administration 10903 New Hampshire Avenue Silver Spring, MD 20993 www.fda.gov {1} K262877 - Dolan Mills Page 2 Additional information about changes that may require a new premarket notification are provided in the FDA guidance documents entitled "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Change to an Existing Device" (https://www.fda.gov/media/99812/download) and "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Software Change to an Existing Device" (https://www.fda.gov/media/99785/download). Your device is also subject to, among other requirements, the Quality Management System Regulation (QMSR) (21 CFR Part 820), which includes, but is not limited to, ISO 13485 clause 7.3 (Design controls), ISO 13485 clause 8.3 (Nonconforming product), ISO 13485 clause 8.5.2 (Corrective action), and ISO 13485 clause 8.5.3 (Preventative action). Please note that regardless of whether a change requires premarket review, the QMSR requires device manufacturers to review and approve changes to device design and production (ISO 13485 clause 7.3 and ISO 13485 clause 7.5) and document changes and approvals in the Medical Device File (ISO 13485 clause 4.2.3). Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting (reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR Part 803) for devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR Part 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/combination-products/guidance-regulatory-information/postmarketing-safety-reporting-combination-products); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the Quality Management System Regulation (QMSR) (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR Part 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR Parts 1000-1050. All medical devices, including Class I and unclassified devices and combination product device constituent parts are required to be in compliance with the final Unique Device Identification System rule ("UDI Rule"). The UDI Rule requires, among other things, that a device bear a unique device identifier (UDI) on its label and package (21 CFR 801.20(a)) unless an exception or alternative applies (21 CFR 801.20(b)) and that the dates on the device label be formatted in accordance with 21 CFR 801.18. The UDI Rule (21 CFR 830.300(a) and 830.320(b)) also requires that certain information be submitted to the Global Unique Device Identification Database (GUDID) (21 CFR Part 830 Subpart E). For additional information on these requirements, please see the UDI System webpage at https://www.fda.gov/medical-devices/device-advice-comprehensive-regulatory-assistance/unique-device-identification-system-udi-system.

K262877 Pg 2 of 6 This predicate has been subject to design-related recalls which are related to this submission. #### IV. Device Description: The SOLTIVE™ Laser System is a thulium fiber laser, producing a pulsed beam of coherent near-infrared light (1940 nm) upon activation by a footswitch. The beam is then directed to the treatment zone by means of an optical fiber coupled to a handpiece. An integrated LED touch screen gives the user control over the necessary laser system parameters. The SOLTIVE Laser System is equipped with a 550 nm aiming beam. The SOLTIVE Laser System is comprised of a choice of two models - Premium Laser System (PLS) and Pro Laser System (SLS), laser fibers and accessories. The Premium laser has a maximum power output of 60 Watts and a maximum Frequency output of 2400 Hz and a secondary, foldable screen is provided. The Pro laser can operate at a maximum power of 35 Watts and Frequency output limited to 100Hz. Both systems are compact, designed to fit onto an optional laser cart and are operated with a footswitch (wired or wireless). The Soltive Laser System must be operated with a Soltive Laser Fiber, offered in quartz core diameters from 150 – 940 microns. The system includes: - Laser console - Sterile laser fibers – single-use and reusable options in sizes 150um, 200um, 365um, 550um, and 940um - Footswitch, wireless or wired options. - Accessories – power cord, HDMI cable, safety goggles/glasses, fiber strippers, fiber cleaver, blast shields, footswitch (wired and wireless), cart. The devices do not incorporate medicinal substances, tissues, or blood products. The Soltive laser fibers are provided in single-use and reusable options, and both single-use and reusable fibers are initially sterilized by Ethylene Oxide. #### V. Indications For Use The SOLTIVE™ Laser System (SOLTIVE™ Pro SuperPulsed Laser, SOLTIVE™ Premium SuperPulsed Laser, SOLTIVE™ Laser Fibers, and Accessories) is intended for incision, excision, resection, ablation, coagulation, hemostasis, and vaporization of soft tissue, with or without an endoscope, in the following indications: urology, lithotripsy, gastroenterological surgery and gynecological surgery. 2 {6} SOLTIVE Laser System Gyrus ACMI, Inc.

The difference between subject and predicate is a change to the Instructions for Use to add or clarify instructions and warnings for further risk mitigation. The differences between the subject and predicate devices do not raise different questions of safety and effectiveness. ### VII. Performance Data Non-clinical bench testing was performed to verify that the changed Instructions for Use meet all applicable product requirements. The results support the claim of substantial equivalence of the subject device to the predicate device. Design Verification, Design Validation, Human Factors Validation: design and user input validations were conducted to evaluate the updated Instructions for Use. Tests included simulated use and knowledge tasks. Result: All testing passed, meeting the acceptance criteria of the Design testing. This demonstrates the Instructions for Use are equivalent to the predicate. ### VIII. Conclusion: Based on the bench testing, the modified device was found to be substantially equivalent to the 5 {9} SOLTIVE Laser System Gyrus ACMI, Inc.
