The summary describes a therapeutic ultrasound device and its intended use, focusing on the physical effects of ultrasound. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any data-driven algorithms typically associated with AI/ML in medical devices.
Yes
The device is described as "therapeutic ultrasound" and its intended effects include pain relief, reduction of muscle spasm, increased blood flow, and increased range of motion, all of which are therapeutic outcomes.
No
The text describes therapeutic effects of ultrasound (pain relief, muscle spasm reduction, increased blood flow, increased range of motion) and does not mention any function for identifying or diagnosing a disease or condition.
No
The device description explicitly names a physical device, "Sonicator® 740, Model ME 740," which is a therapeutic ultrasound device and therefore hardware.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use describes the device delivering ultrasound to the body for therapeutic purposes like pain relief, muscle spasm reduction, increased blood flow, and improved range of motion. These are all in vivo applications, meaning they are performed on a living organism.
- Device Description: The device is described as a "Sonicator® 740, Model ME 740," which is consistent with a therapeutic ultrasound device.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) outside of the body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment.
IVD devices are specifically designed to perform tests on samples taken from the body. This device's function is to apply energy to the body for therapeutic effect.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
Ultrasound delivered to the body using an efficient couplant provides deep heating effects to body tissues. Ultrasound delivered at a frequency of 1 MHz penetrates to a depth of approximately 5 centimeters while ultrasound at a frequency of 3.3 or 3.2 MHz penetrates tissue to a depth of approximately 1-2 cm.
When therapeutic ultrasound is delivered to the body at intensities capable of generating a deep tissue temperature increase, some or all of the following effects may occur:
-
- Pain relief
-
- Reduction of muscle spasm
-
- Localized increase in blood flow
-
- Increase range of motion of contracted joints using heat and stretch techniques.

§ 890.5300 Ultrasonic diathermy.
(a)
Ultrasonic diathermy for use in applying therapeutic deep heat for selected medical conditions —(1)Identification. An ultrasonic diathermy 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.(2)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).(b)
Ultrasonic diathermy for all other uses —(1)Identification. An ultrasonic diathermy 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 that is intended for the treatment of medical conditions by means other than the generation of deep heat within body tissues 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 ultrasonic diathermy 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 ultrasonic diathermy described in paragraph (b) of this section that was in commercial distribution before May 28, 1976. Any other ultrasonic diathermy described in paragraph (b) of this section shall have an approved PMA or declared completed PDP in effect before being placed in commercial distribution.

Dear Mr. Fleming:
This letter corrects our substantially equivalent letter of May 4, 2006.
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 (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 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. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
