Intended Use
The BioniCare® Stimulator, Model BIO-1000™ is indicated for use as an adjunctive therapy in reducing the level of pain and symptoms associated with osteoarthritis of the knee and for overall improvement of the knee as assessed by the physician's global evaluation (clinical studies.)
Device Description
The BioniCare® Stimulator, Model BIO-1000™ consists of the electrodes, the lead wires, and the BioniCare Stimulator. The stimulator is portable, battery operated and rechargeable. The lead wires connect the electrodes to the stimulator. These electrodes complete an electrical circuit allowing current flow. The stimulator produces a pulsed electrical signal through the lead wires and electrodes at the treatment site.

No
The summary describes a simple electrical stimulator and does not mention any AI or ML components or capabilities.

Yes
The device is indicated for use as an adjunctive therapy in reducing pain and symptoms associated with osteoarthritis of the knee, which directly addresses a medical condition.

No

The device is indicated for use as an adjunctive therapy in reducing pain and symptoms, which is a therapeutic rather than a diagnostic function. It produces an electrical signal for treatment and does not collect or analyze data for diagnostic purposes.

No

The device description explicitly states it consists of electrodes, lead wires, and a stimulator, which are all hardware components.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is used as an "adjunctive therapy in reducing the level of pain and symptoms associated with osteoarthritis of the knee and for overall improvement of the knee". This describes a therapeutic intervention applied directly to the patient's body.
  • Device Description: The description details a device that delivers electrical stimulation through electrodes applied to the skin. This is a physical treatment method.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, tissue) in vitro (outside the body) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.

IVD devices are used to perform tests on biological samples to gain information about a person's health status. This device is a therapeutic device that applies electrical stimulation to the body.

Statement of Intended Use:

The BioniCare® Stimulator, Model BIO-1000™ is indicated for use as an adjunctive therapy in reducing the level of pain and symptoms associated with osteoarthritis of the knee and for overall improvement of the knee as assessed by the physician's global evaluation (clinical studies.)

Summary of Technological Characteristics of New device compared to Predicate Device:

The Bionicare Model BIO-1000™ Version A, and the BioniCare® Model BIO-1000 Version B, systems generate the same electrical output. The analog circuit of Version A and the digital circuit of Version B produce the same frequency at 100 ± 5Hz, fixed.

The analog circuit of Version A and the analog circuit of Version B produce the same waveform as a monophasic spike shaped pulse.

The analog circuit of Version A and the digital circuit of Version B produce the same voltage output range which is 0-12 volts peak. Version A has a single channel of output and version B has two channels of output. The voltage pulse width, current output range, current pulse width, and maximum output change/channel are the same for Version A and Version B.

The output of Version A is displayed on red and green LEDs. The output on Version B is displayed on a LCD as numeric values in the range of the 0.0 to 12.0 volt output.

The twelve volt battery of Version A and the nine volt battery of Version B both produce the same output voltage over the range of 0.0 to 12.0 volts. Version A and Version B both comply with the standard ANSI/AAMI NS-4: 1988.)
