K082230 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the VECTRA PLUS LASER SYSTEM AND ACCESSORIES. Classified as Powered Laser Surgical Instrument within the GEX classification (a category for powered laser surgical instruments across multiple specialties), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Xintec Corporation (Alameda, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on February 3, 2010 after a review of 545 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the General & Plastic Surgery FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 878.4810 - the FDA general and plastic surgery device framework. The Traditional 510(k) pathway establishes clearance through substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device, without requiring clinical trial data.

Device pattern: High-complexity regulatory submission. Elevated predicate reliance profile. The extended review timeline suggests the FDA required additional documentation before confirming substantial equivalence - a pattern common in complex or first-of-kind General & Plastic Surgery submissions.
