The Micro Health Systems, MHS MED LIGHT 1000 is a device which helps to temporarily increase local blood circulation where applied, and temporarily relieves minor muscle and joint aches and pains through the use of heat applied in a non-contact manner.
Device Description
The Micro Health Systems, MHS MED LIGHT 1000 is a device which helps to temporarily increase local blood circulation where applied, and temporarily relieves minor muscle and joint aches and pains through the use of heat applied in a non-contact manner. Aiming means adjustable by users from the heat ceramic filament in which there is no hazard for contacting high temperature lamps. An adjustable timer control for safety functions is also incorporated into the MHS MED LIGHT 1000. The Micro Health System MHS MED LIGHT 1000 cooling method is related to temperature of the enclosure, and the enclosure, and the enclosure temperatures of the three devices listed in the comparison table are assured. According to the different wattages and the maximum temperatures, we also know the ceramic type lamp of the AP-2018 is more efficient that the other two lamps. The maximum temperatures for these three devices listed in the comparison table are above 100 degrees Fahrenheit, and can reach the intended results. The timer controls and the continuous intensity controls exist on the MHS MED LIGHT 1000. The user can control the timer function and intensity control the receiving heat amount, thus assuming the safety level.

No
The description focuses on heat application, adjustable controls (timer, intensity), and safety features, with no mention of AI or ML terms or functionalities.

Yes
The device is used to temporarily increase blood circulation, and relieve muscle and joint aches and pains, which are therapeutic claims.

No

The device description and intended use state that it temporarily increases local blood circulation and relieves minor muscle and joint aches and pains through heat application, which are therapeutic functions, not diagnostic ones.

No

The device description clearly details physical components like a heat ceramic filament, adjustable aiming means, a timer control, and an enclosure with a cooling method, indicating it is a hardware device that applies heat.

Based on the provided information, the Micro Health Systems, MHS MED LIGHT 1000 is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.

Here's why:

  • 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 intended use and device description of the MHS MED LIGHT 1000 clearly state that it applies heat externally to the body to increase local blood circulation and relieve pain. It does not involve the analysis of biological specimens.
  • The device description focuses on the physical application of heat and its effects on the body. There is no mention of analyzing samples or providing diagnostic information based on biological markers.

Therefore, the MHS MED LIGHT 1000 falls under the category of a therapeutic or physical medicine device, not an in vitro diagnostic device.
