The document describes a standard infrared lamp device and does not mention any AI or ML components or functionalities.
Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the devices are for "temporary relief of minor muscles and joint pain and stiffness, minor pain and stiffness associated with arthritis, or muscle spasm." These are therapeutic benefits.
No
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section states that the device is for "providing topical heating for the purpose of elevating tissue temperature to provide temporary relief of minor muscles and joint pain and stiffness, minor pain and stiffness associated with arthritis, or muscle spasm." This describes a therapeutic, not a diagnostic, function. There is no mention of diagnosing conditions.
No
The device description explicitly states it consists of a control unit and a handpiece, which are hardware components.
Based on the provided information, the Neurolase™ device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is an infrared lamp used for topical heating to provide temporary relief of pain and stiffness. This is a therapeutic application, not a diagnostic one.
- Device Description: The description details a system that delivers infrared energy to the patient's tissue. This aligns with a therapeutic device, not one that analyzes samples from the body.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting specific analytes, or providing diagnostic information about a patient's condition.
IVD devices are specifically designed to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, prevention, monitoring, treatment, or alleviation of disease. The Neurolase™ device's function is to apply energy to the body for therapeutic purposes.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Neurolase™ devices emit energy in the infrared spectrum to provide topical heating for the purpose of elevating tissue temperature to provide temporary relief of minor muscle and joint pain and stiffness, minor arthritis pain, or muscle spasm. These devices may temporarily increase blood circulation, and may be used to promote relaxation of muscle tissue.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
The differences in the specifications of the Neurolase™ devices and the predicate devices result in enhanced performance for the Neurolase™ devices and do not raise new questions of safety or efficacy.
Prototype units have undergone preliminary testing to ensure compliance with UL2601 and FCC Part 15 requirements. Once marketing clearance is granted, safety and emissions testing will take place at a registered body. Production units will each be run through an Acceptance Test Procedure to ensure compliance with the System Specification. All components have been chosen to ensure compliance with the aforementioned standards.
