No
The summary describes a mechanical massaging system using inflatable garments and makes no mention of AI or ML.

Yes
The device is indicated for "temporary relief of minor muscle aches and pains and for temporary increase in circulation," which are therapeutic purposes.

No
Explanation: The device is indicated for "temporary relief of minor muscle aches and pains and for temporary increase in circulation," which describes a therapeutic rather than a diagnostic function. It does not identify or detect diseases or conditions.

No

The device description is not found, but the intended use explicitly mentions an "inflatable garment," which is a hardware component.

Based on the provided information, the Perfect Touch™ Air Massaging System is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use describes a device that provides temporary relief of muscle aches and pains and increases circulation through physical massage using an inflatable garment. This is a physical therapy or wellness application, not a diagnostic test performed on samples taken from the body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Detecting or measuring substances in those samples
    • Providing information for the diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment of a disease or condition based on sample analysis.

Therefore, the Perfect Touch™ Air Massaging System falls outside the scope of In Vitro Diagnostic devices.

Dear Ms Ravitz:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies.
