No
The document describes a standard electrical nerve stimulator with adjustable output and various operation modes controlled by a microprocessor. There is no mention of AI, ML, or any learning or adaptive capabilities based on data.
Yes
The device is described as a "transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulator used for pain relief and/or powered muscle stimulator" with indications including "symptomatic relief of chronic intractable pain," "relaxation of muscle spasms," and "increasing local blood circulation," which are all therapeutic purposes.
No
The device is described as a "transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulator" and "powered muscle stimulator" used for "symptomatic relief of chronic intractable pain" and various muscle-related indications. It applies electrical current for treatment, not for diagnosing conditions.
No
The device description explicitly states that the device consists of hardware components including a TWIN housing, stimulation generators, and electrodes, which are physical parts that deliver electrical current to the patient. While software controls the operation modes, the device is not solely software.
Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use/Indications for Use: The intended uses are all related to applying electrical stimulation to the body for therapeutic purposes (pain relief, muscle stimulation, etc.). These are not diagnostic tests performed on samples taken from the body.
- Device Description: The description clearly states it's a transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulator and/or powered muscle stimulator that applies electrical current to electrodes on the patient's skin. This is a physical therapy/rehabilitation device, not a diagnostic one.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting biomarkers, or providing diagnostic information about a disease or condition based on in vitro analysis.
Therefore, this device falls under the category of a therapeutic medical device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Device Description
The GEM-TWIN TENS series, including GM38Y/Z and GM39Y/Z(where Y and Z are any combination of OT/OE/OTE/OPE/OPP/2IF/3HV), are transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulator used for pain relief and/or powered muscle stimulator by applying an electrical current to electrodes, which are attached on the patient's skin. The output and waveform is adjustable according to the situation of patient.
The GEM-TWIN TENS series, including GM38Y/Z and GM39Y/Z(where Y and Z are any combination of OT/OE/OTE/OPE/OPP/2IF/3HV), consist mainly of three parts: the TWIN housing, stimulation generators, and electrode. The TWIN housing to mount any two stimulation units, and to provide the connection of supply power and stimulation lead wires. The stimulation generator generates the output current specified as the input of controller. The output electrodes transmits the output current to the electrode, which is attached to the patient's skin so as to transmit this stimulus current to the patient for pain relief.
The stimulation mode for GEM-TWIN TENS includes several different operation modes as mentioned on the comparison table. These operation modes are generated from the software control by using the microprocessor as its main control unit.

- (3) The new model GM38Y/Z and GM39Y/Z ( where Y/Z is equipped with 3HV) are substantially equivalent to the GEMORE cleared model as mentioned in K032994.
- 7 . Discussion of Non-Clinical Tests Performed Determination of Substantial Equivalence are as follows:
Compliance to applicable voluntary standards includes ANSI/AAMI, NS4-1985, as well as EN 60601-1, EN 60601-1-1, and EN 60601-1-2 requirement.
In addition to the compliance of voluntary standards, the software verification has been carried out according to the FDA software guidance.
8. Conclusions
The GEM-TWIN TENS series, including GM38Y/Z and GM39Y/Z(where Y and Z are any combination of 0T/0E/0TE/0PE/0PP/21F/3HV), have the same intended use and technological characteristics as the cleared device of the devices being modified(the models as mentioned in GEMORE previous cleared 510(K), K032720, K032719, and K032994). Moreover, verification and validation tests contained in this submission demonstrate that the difference in the submitted demonstrate that the difference in the submitted models could maintain the same safety and effectiveness as that of cleared device.
In the other words. those engineering difference do not: (1) affect the intended use or (2) alter the fundamental scientific technology of the device.
