Intended Use
The electrical stimulation component of the InCare Pelvic Floor Therapy System provides stimulation capabilities that are intended to provide electrical stimulation for the purpose of rehabilitation of weak pelvic floor muscles for the treatment of urinary incontinence. The biofeedback components of the InCare Pelvic Floor Therapy System are intended to provide electromyography or pressure biofeedback from the pelvic musculature for the purpose of rehabilitation of weak pelvic floor muscles and restoration of neuromuscular control for the treatment of urinary incontinence.
Device Description
The InCare Pelvic Floor Therapy System is an office based instrument that is intended to be used by physicians, nurses, nurse clinicians, and physiotherapists in a physicians office, clinic, or hospital for the purpose of providing electromyography or pressure biofeedback from pelvic musculature for the purpose of rehabilitation of weak pelvic floor muscles and the restoration of neuromuscular control for the treatment of urinary incontinence. The InCare Pelvic Floor Therapy System also provides electrical stimulation capabilities for the purpose of rehabilitation of weak pelvic floor muscles for the treatment of urinary incontinence. The proposed InCare Pelvic Floor Therapy System is comprised of a combination of an instrumentation unit and a personal computer. Other peripheral devices such as monitors and printers can be added for convenience or ease of use. The personal computer and instrumentation unit are physically separate devices "linked" to each other by a communication pathway. Features or functions that are "data manipulation and presentation" activities are properly associated with the personal computer. Features or functions that are" patient therapy" actions are controlled by the instrumentation unit.
More Information

No
The summary describes a system for electrical stimulation and biofeedback for pelvic floor therapy. It mentions data manipulation and presentation on a personal computer and patient therapy actions controlled by an instrumentation unit. There is no mention of AI, ML, or related concepts in the intended use, device description, or the specific sections for AI/ML mentions, training/test sets, or performance studies.

Yes.
The device's intended use is for the rehabilitation of weak pelvic floor muscles and restoration of neuromuscular control for the treatment of urinary incontinence through electrical stimulation and biofeedback, which are therapeutic actions.

No

The device is intended for rehabilitation and treatment through electrical stimulation and biofeedback, not for diagnosing conditions.

No

The device description explicitly states that the system is comprised of a combination of an instrumentation unit and a personal computer, indicating the presence of hardware components beyond just software.

Based on the provided text, this device 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.
  • Device Function: The InCare Pelvic Floor Therapy System works by providing electrical stimulation and biofeedback directly to the patient's pelvic muscles. It is a therapeutic device used for rehabilitation and treatment, not for analyzing samples taken from the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states "rehabilitation of weak pelvic floor muscles" and "treatment of urinary incontinence," which are therapeutic goals, not diagnostic ones.
  • Device Description: The description details an "office based instrument" that interacts directly with the patient's body via electrical stimulation and biofeedback.

Therefore, the InCare Pelvic Floor Therapy System falls under the category of a therapeutic medical device, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

(a)
Identification. A perineometer is a device consisting of a fluid-filled sack for intravaginal use that is attached to an external manometer. The devices measure the strength of the perineal muscles by offering resistence to a patient's voluntary contractions of these muscles and is used to diagnose and to correct, through exercise, uninary incontinence or sexual dysfunction.(b)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).
