Overview
The Physiolaser Olympic is a laser-based therapeutic device designed for physical medicine applications. It delivers continuous-wave (CW) laser energy via interchangeable probes, including single probes, cluster probes, a light needle, and a photonics satellite module, to target tissue for therapeutic effects. The device operates within the infrared spectrum to facilitate localized heating and tissue stimulation. Its modular probe system allows flexible application depending on clinical requirements, such as surface or deeper tissue treatment.
This device is intended for use in clinical settings by healthcare professionals, supplied as a reusable system with disposable or reusable probe attachments. It is not classified as sterile and requires proper cleaning and maintenance per manufacturer instructions. The Physiolaser Olympic is authorized under FDA 510(k) clearance and MDR compliance, with a product code of ILY. Storage and handling follow standard laser device protocols to ensure operational integrity and patient safety.

From the manufacturer
Cluster probes, single probes, a laser needle, or a laser scanner: with the Physiolaser olympic (or the AkuWave, which has the same design) you can easily operate all the laser probes from the Physiolaser product line with just one control unit, by plug & play—even two probes at the same time!

Questions
What types of probes does the Physiolaser Olympic include, and how do they differ in their intended applications?
The Physiolaser Olympic comes with multiple interchangeable probe types: single probes, cluster probes, a light needle, and a photonics satellite module. The single and cluster probes are designed for surface or deeper tissue treatment, depending on the probe configuration, while the light needle allows for targeted, precise delivery of laser energy to specific areas. The photonics satellite module may enable flexible positioning or additional coverage for broader treatment areas, depending on clinical setup.
Is the Physiolaser Olympic itself reusable, or are the probe attachments disposable? How should they be handled?
The Physiolaser Olympic base device is reusable, but the probe attachments (single probes, cluster probes, light needle, and photonics satellite) may be either disposable or reusable, depending on the specific attachment. The manufacturer specifies that all attachments require proper cleaning and maintenance per their instructions, and none of the probes are classified as sterile. Standard laser device protocols must be followed for storage and handling to ensure safety and operational integrity.
What regulatory pathways does the Physiolaser Olympic follow, and how does this affect its availability?
The Physiolaser Olympic is authorized under both FDA 510(k) clearance (with K-number K131080) and MDR compliance, indicating it meets regulatory standards for physical medicine applications in the U.S. and EU markets. Its product code (ILY) categorizes it under physical medicine, and the device was determined substantially equivalent to a predicate device by the FDA’s Physical Medicine advisory committee. This ensures it adheres to safety and performance requirements for clinical use.
How should the Physiolaser Olympic be stored to maintain its operational integrity?
The Physiolaser Olympic must be stored and handled according to standard laser device protocols to preserve its functionality and ensure patient safety. This includes protecting it from physical damage, extreme temperatures, and contamination, as well as following manufacturer guidelines for cleaning and maintenance of reusable components. Proper storage conditions help prevent degradation of the laser system and its interchangeable probes.
