No
The device description focuses on standard electrotherapy features and data communication for patient data, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities for treatment or analysis.
Yes
The device is used for muscle and nerve stimulation to alleviate pain and address various muscle-related conditions, which are therapeutic applications.
No
The device is a stimulator intended for therapeutic purposes (pain relief, muscle stimulation) rather than for diagnosing conditions. Its indications for use clearly list various treatment applications.
No
The device description explicitly details hardware components such as a battery, stimulation channels, lead wires, a charging cradle, and a touch screen LCD, indicating it is a physical device with embedded software, not a software-only medical device.
Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device is for "muscle and nerve stimulation" using electrical currents (Interferential Current Stimulation and Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation). These are therapeutic applications, not diagnostic tests performed on biological samples.
- Indications for Use: The indications listed are for the relief and management of pain, muscle spasms, disuse atrophy, blood circulation, muscle re-education, prevention of venous thrombosis, and maintaining range of motion. These are all related to treating or managing physical conditions, not diagnosing them.
- Device Description: The description details a device that delivers electrical stimulation through channels and lead wires. It focuses on features related to controlling and delivering this stimulation. There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.).
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: An IVD device is designed to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device does not perform any such analysis.
In summary, the netwave Interferential Stimulator is a therapeutic device that delivers electrical stimulation to the body for various physical conditions. It does not perform in vitro diagnostic testing.

Device Description
The Ryan Telemedicine netwave Interferential Stimulator is a battery powered (rechargeable) device intended for clinic, and outpatient use. Prescribed by a physician, netwave gives the clinician a variety of electrotherapy modes to treat a range of indications. netwaye is designed for clinician and patient ease of use and provides safe and effective dispensing of the desired electrotherapy treatment. netwave incorporates the following features:
- Two independent stimulation channels, which provide true interferential current and neuromuscular stimulation.
- Continuous or pulsed stimulation.
- Adjustable sweep and ramp times.
- Adjustable amplitude and frequency
- Four programmable therapy protocols
- Five preset therapy protocols
- Adjustable on and off times
- Pause button to allow temporary cessation of treatment and a resume button to allow the continuance of treatment. When a treatment session is paused, the timer does not countdown. Upon resumption of treatment, the timer resumes its countdown and the amplitude (intensity) is reset to zero.
- Easy to connect, easy to handle, patient lead wire/cable assembly with a "one way" connector and color coded lead wires contribute to improved patient experience and improved therapy outcomes.
- Timed therapy sessions.
- Robust rechargeable Nickel Metal Hydride battery system with rapid recharge (85% recharge in 30 minutes - full charge in 2 hours)
- Charging / communicating cradle which serves as "home base" for netwave and provides a simple recharging system for the user/patient. The use of the charging cradle ensures netwave is always at peak battery power.
- The communication functions of the cradle allow for the uploading of patient data (compliant with HIPAA requlations) to an Internet data server for use by the patient's authorized caregivers. NO INDIVIDUALLY IDENTIFIABLE PATIENT DATA is transmitted.
- netwave user interface incorporates a touch screen Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) as the main device/user interface.

6. Basis for Substantial Equivalence
netwave is substantially equivalent to the legally marketed device and is similar in design, features and function and provides the intended therapy in a safe and effective manner. Both devices offer identical preprogrammed treatment protocols and the clinician or patient can choose one or more of these pre-set options. Furthermore, both allow the clinician to customize a treatment protocol for each individual patient within the parametric ranges and save the treatment into memory.
Bench testing was performed on the marketed device and netwave and the therapy output and performance characteristics for both units was identical.
7. Differences Between the Marketed Device and netwave
netwave incorporates several improvements over the legally marketed device, including:
- . Simplified battery charging system. There is no need to connect a charging cable to the device. The user places the device in the charging cradle to begin the charging process.
- Equal recharge time at a lower charging temperature. The battery . charging circuitry has been removed from the device and relocated in the charging cradle.
- Improved safety due to the device software preventing therapy . treatment while connected to wall current (recharging). Once the stimulator is removed from the cradle it is no longer connected to wall current.
- . Greatly simplified user interface with a minimum number of steps to begin therapy treatment.
- . Easy to read interface screens with full descriptions of available options and settings.
- Large "Pause" and "Quit" buttons on the interface ensure quick . cessation of treatment.
- . The stimulator now incorporates an "Initial Activation Code" to be entered by the user. The code is embedded in the instruction manual in the "Warnings and Precautions" section thereby encouraging the user to read the Indications, Contraindications, Precautions, Warnings and Adverse Effects section of the Instruction Manual.
4
- The stimulator includes a HIPAA "Patients Rights" acknowledgement . process which encourages the education of the patient as to their patient rights.
- Treatment compliance data is recorded in greater detail and is . available within 24 hours of the first treatment.
- . Bi-directional communication system which enables greater communication between patient, Physician and Clinician and virtually immediate reporting of patient compliance data.
- Communications are fully compliant with HIPAA regulations and are . secure using HTTPS (security) protocols.

Dear Mr. Sherratt:
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.
