Clinical Evidence

No clinical data. Substantial equivalence established via non-clinical bench testing, including electrical safety (IEC 60601-1), electromagnetic compatibility (IEC 60601-1-2), and particular requirements for nerve/muscle stimulators (IEC 60601-2-10).

Technological Characteristics

Battery-powered TENS unit; ABS plastic and metal construction. Monophasic rectangular waveform; 2 Hz fixed frequency; 106 µs pulse duration. Single output channel. Complies with IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, and IEC 60601-2-10. No microprocessor control mentioned.

Indications for Use

Indicated for temporary relief of pain in shoulder, waist, back, arm, and leg muscles caused by exercise or normal household/work activities. For OTC use.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

Description of Subject Device The subject device is a hand-held and battery-powered unit of TENS. It combines the electrical characteristics of TENS with the point stimulation delivered through the electrodes of a metal contact tip and a metal grounding contact on the device has only one TENS mode of the low frequency (2 Hz), and only one button (Power Button). When the Power Button is held down, the device will turn on and deliver the fixed stimulation output to the user's body skin; when the Power Button is released, the device will turn off and the stimulation output will stop. Therefore, the device is very simple and easy to use. The device is designed to generate small pulses of electrical current and delivers the pulses to the user's {4}------------------------------------------------ skin through the metal contact tip such that the underlying nerves and/or muscles are activated for pain relief. # 5.

Therefore, the differences do not affect safety or As demonstrated above, the differences do not affect the intended use or alter th mental technology of the device. There are no new safety or effectiveness issues concerning the subject device, which offers substantially equivalent technical specifications, features, intended use, and effective results to the predicate device. {6}------------------------------------------------ # 8. Non-Clinical Tests Performed The subject device does not conduct, nor rely upon, clinical tests to determine substantial equivalence. Non-clinical tests were performed on the subject device in order to validate the design and to assure conformance with the following voluntary design standards in connection with medical device electrical safety, and electromagnetic compatibility. - (a) IEC 60601-1 "Medical Electrical Equipment Part 1: General requirements for basic safety and essential performance". - (b) IEC 60601-1-2 "Medical Electrical Equipment Part 1-2: General Requirements for Basic Safety and Essential Performance - Collateral standard: Electromagnetic Compatibility - Requirements and Tests". - (c) IEC 60601-2-10 "Medical electrical equipment Part 2-10: Particular requirements for the basic safety and essential performance of nerve and muscle stimulators". #### 9. Conclusion The tests performed and the comparison of technical characteristics and intended use demonstrate the subject device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device. Therefore, the subject device is as safe and effective as the predicate device that has been legally marketed in the United States.
