No
The description focuses on standard electrical stimulation functionalities and does not mention any AI/ML components or capabilities.
Yes
The device is indicated for various medical conditions, such as muscle spasms, disuse atrophy, and increasing local blood circulation, which are therapeutic applications.
No.
The device's intended uses are therapeutic (relaxation of muscle spasms, prevention of disuse atrophy, increasing blood circulation, muscle re-education, preventing venous thrombosis, maintaining/increasing range of motion), not diagnostic.
No
The device description explicitly states it is a "portable two-channel battery operated neuromuscular electrical stimulator" and includes physical components like lead wires, electrodes, and a battery. This indicates it is a hardware device, not software-only.
Based on the provided information, the MediStim PLUS is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended uses listed (relaxation of muscle spasms, prevention of disuse atrophy, increasing blood circulation, muscle re-education, preventing venous thrombosis, maintaining range of motion) are all related to treating or affecting the structure or function of the body. IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- Device Description: The device is a neuromuscular electrical stimulator that applies electrical impulses to the skin surface. This is a form of physical therapy or treatment, not a diagnostic test performed on a specimen.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, using reagents, or providing diagnostic information based on laboratory tests.
Therefore, the MediStim PLUS falls under the category of a therapeutic medical device, specifically a neuromuscular electrical stimulator, rather than an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Intended use.
The MediStim PLUS is intended for use with a wide range of patients, some of who may have limited dexterity. It is intended to use the principles of neuromuscular electrical nerve stimulation through skin contact surface electrodes for the purpose of activation of weak and atrophied muscles or the inhibition of overactive muscle.
「echnological comparison.
The MediStim PLUS is similar to the EMS+2 in that it delivers a stimulation signal. which is almost identical with similar parameter settings. The MediStim PLUS has an LCD screen with user compliance monitoring, where as the EMS+2 does not have this feature.
Non-clinical tests.
The MediStim PLUS was designed to. and has been independently tested to IEC 601-1: 1998 +A1: 1991+ A2: 1995, IEC 601-2-10:1987. IEC 601-1-2:1993.
