No
The summary describes a standard electrical muscle stimulator and contains no mention of AI, ML, or related concepts.

Yes
The device is intended to treat a medical condition (relaxation of muscle spasms) by applying an electrical current, which classifies it as therapeutic.

No
The device is described as an "electrical powered muscle stimulator" used for the relaxation of muscle spasms, which is a therapeutic function, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description explicitly states it is an "electrical powered muscle stimulator," which implies a hardware component that delivers electrical current.

Based on the provided information, the "Surestim" is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
  • Surestim's Function: The "Surestim" is described as an electrical powered muscle stimulator that applies current through electrodes to a patient's skin. This is a direct application of energy to the body, not a test performed on a sample taken from the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is for the relaxation of muscle spasms, which is a therapeutic application, not a diagnostic one.

Therefore, the "Surestim" falls under the category of a therapeutic medical device, not an in vitro diagnostic device.
