Not Found

No
The summary contains no mention of AI, ML, or related concepts, and the device description is not available.

Yes
The device is intended for "symptomatic relief of chronic intractable pain, post-traumatic and post-surgical pain," which are therapeutic applications.

No
Explanation: The device is intended for symptomatic pain relief, which is a therapeutic rather than a diagnostic function.

Unknown

The provided 510(k) summary lacks a device description, making it impossible to determine if the device is software-only or includes hardware components.

Based on the provided information, the Mini TENS device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is "symptomatic relief of chronic intractable pain, post-traumatic and post-surgical pain." This describes a therapeutic device that applies electrical stimulation to the body for pain management.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. The description of the Mini TENS does not involve any such specimen analysis.

Therefore, the Mini TENS is a therapeutic device, not an in vitro diagnostic device.
