Product Code: GEX FDA class 2

Powered Laser Surgical Instrument

General, Plastic Surgery

View full classification →

The Powered Laser Surgical Instrument (product code GEX) is a laser-based device that uses coherent, collimated, and typically monochromatic radiation to cut, destroy, remove, or coagulate tissue in general and plastic surgery, as well as related specialties including dermatology, podiatry, otolaryngology, gynecology, neurosurgery, orthopedics, dental and oral surgery. The underlying classification regulation (21 CFR 878.4810) addresses carbon dioxide or argon lasers intended for tissue cutting and coagulation. This device is classified as FDA Class 2, indicating moderate risk, and requires 510(k) premarket notification; it is also eligible for third-party review.

What is a Predicate Device?

A predicate device is a legally marketed device that a new 510(k) applicant uses to demonstrate substantial equivalence. The FDA's 510(k) pathway requires manufacturers to show that their device has the same intended use and similar technological characteristics as one or more predicate devices already cleared for commercial distribution.

Finding the right predicate is a critical step in 510(k) strategy. Manufacturers typically search for cleared devices with the same FDA product code, which groups devices by their intended use and regulatory classification. This tool helps you identify potential predicates by browsing all clearances within a product code.

Note that predicate devices must be legally marketed — they cannot be devices that were cleared but never commercialized, or devices subject to a mandatory recall. The determination of substantial equivalence considers intended use, technological characteristics, and performance data.
