Intended Use
Therapeutic Ultrasound: 1. Pain relief 2. Reduction of muscle spasm 3. Localized increase of blood flow 4. Increase range of motion of contracted joints using heat and stretch techniques. Neuromuscular Stimulation: 1. Symptomatic relief of chronic intractable pain, acute post traumatic pain or acute surgical pain 2. Temporary relaxation of muscle spasm 3. Prevention of post-surgical phlebo-thrombosis through immediate stimulation of calf muscles 4. Increase of blood flow in the treatment area. 5. Prevention or retardation of disuse atrophy in post-injury type conditions 6. Muscle re-education 7. Maintaining or increasing range of motion
Device Description
The DU857 Dual Frequency Ultrasound Therapy and Muscle Stimulator System is comprised of the following main components: · A system console including software and control electronics; · A control and display panel; · Device accessories including Muscle Stimulator electrodes (ME2221, Mettler Com.), ultrasound applicators (ME7513, Mettler Corp.), acoustic gel (Sonigel, Mettler Corp.) and cables, supplied by Alpha Tech. The DU857 is a two-channel unit for therapeutic ultrasound and muscle stimulation folded into a specially designed cart. The microprocessor controlled DU857 provides Muscle Stimulator alternating current with enhanced reliability and user friendly interface. The DU857 offers 1 and 3 MHz ultrasound treatment. The user friendly interface comprises keyboard, touch screen and audio feedback. The screen provides operator information about operation mode and signal intensities. Large control soft knobs on the touch screen make easy adjusting of power for ultrasound and muscle stimulation.
More Information

Not Found

No
The description focuses on standard therapeutic ultrasound and neuromuscular stimulation functionalities controlled by a microprocessor and user interface, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities.

Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly lists therapeuticapplications such as pain relief, reduction of muscle spasm, and increase of blood flow for both Therapeutic Ultrasound and Neuromuscular Stimulation.

No

Explanation: The device is described as a therapeutic ultrasound and muscle stimulator system intended for pain relief, reduction of muscle spasm, increased blood flow, and muscle re-education. Its stated uses are for treatment and rehabilitation, not for diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description explicitly lists hardware components such as a system console, control and display panel, electrodes, ultrasound applicators, acoustic gel, and cables. It is a physical device with integrated software, not a software-only device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use/Indications for Use: The listed uses are all therapeutic applications (pain relief, muscle spasm reduction, blood flow increase, range of motion improvement, muscle re-education, etc.). These are treatments applied to the body, not tests performed on samples taken from the body to diagnose or monitor a condition.
  • Device Description: The description details a system for delivering therapeutic ultrasound and muscle stimulation. It does not mention any components or functions related to analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.).
  • Lack of IVD-related information: The document does not include any information typically found in IVD submissions, such as details about sample types, analytical methods, diagnostic performance metrics (sensitivity, specificity, etc.), or clinical studies focused on diagnosis or monitoring.

IVD devices are specifically designed to perform tests on samples from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment of a disease or condition. This device's purpose is to directly treat conditions through physical modalities.

§ 890.5860 Ultrasound and muscle stimulator.

(a)
Ultrasound and muscle stimulator for use in applying therapeutic deep heat for selected medical conditions —(1)Identification. An ultrasound and muscle stimulator for use in applying therapeutic deep heat for selected medical conditions is a device that applies to specific areas of the body ultrasonic energy at a frequency beyond 20 kilohertz and that is intended to generate deep heat within body tissues for the treatment of selected medical conditions such as relief of pain, muscle spasms, and joint contractures, but not for the treatment of malignancies. The device also passes electrical currents through the body area to stimulate or relax muscles.(2)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).(b)
Ultrasound and muscle stimulator for all other uses —(1)Identification. An ultrasound and muscle stimulator for all other uses except for the treatment of malignancies is a device that applies to the body ultrasonic energy at a frequency beyond 20 kilohertz and applies to the body electrical currents and that is intended for the treatment of medical conditions by means other than the generation of deep heat within body tissues and the stimulation or relaxation of muscles as described in paragraph (a) of this section.(2)
Classification. Class III (premarket approval).(c)
Date PMA or notice of completion of PDP is required. A PMA or notice of completion of a PDP for a device described in paragraph (b) of this section is required to be filed with the Food and Drug Administration on or before July 13, 1999 for any ultrasound and muscle stimulator described in paragraph (b) of this section that was in commercial distribution before May 28, 1976, or that has, on or before July 13, 1999, been found to be substantially equivalent to an ultrasound and muscle stimulator described in paragraph (b) of this section that was in commercial distribution before May 28, 1976. Any other ultrasound and muscle stimulator described in paragraph (b) of this section shall have an approved PMA or declared completed PDP in effect before being placed in commercial distribution.
