The description focuses on mechanical and control systems (servo-amplifier, servo-motor, load-cell feedback) and does not mention any AI/ML terms or functionalities.
Yes
Explanation: The device is explicitly designed to relieve pain and symptoms associated with various disc and spinal conditions, aiming to treat and alleviate medical issues.
No
The device is designed for treatment (decompression) and pain relief, not for diagnosing medical conditions.
No
The device description clearly outlines multiple hardware components including a servo-amplifier, servo-motor, load-cell feedback, patient safety switch, textile patient harness, and a free-floating lower body mattress, indicating it is not a software-only device.
Based on the provided information, the DRX9000 True Decompression System is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.
Here's why:
- IVD devices are used to examine specimens from the human body. The intended use and device description clearly state that the DRX9000 is a system that applies physical forces to the patient's spine to relieve pain. It does not involve the analysis of biological samples like blood, urine, or tissue.
- The device description focuses on mechanical and physical principles. It describes the application of tension, servo-motors, load-cell feedback, and patient harnesses. These are all related to a physical therapy or treatment device, not a diagnostic test performed on a sample.
- The intended use is therapeutic. The primary goal is to relieve pain and manage symptoms associated with spinal conditions, not to diagnose a disease or condition by analyzing a specimen.
Therefore, the DRX9000 falls under the category of a therapeutic medical device, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The DRX9000 True Decompression System is designed to relieve pressure on structures that may be causing low back pain and sciatica. It relieves the pain associated with herniated discs, degenerative disc disease, posterior facet syndrome and radicular pain. Intervertebral disc decompression is achieved non-surgicaly through the application of logarithmic distraction tensions applied to the patient according to the Axiom protocol.
The DRX9000 True Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression System provides a primary treatment modality for the management of pain and disability for patients suffering with incapacitating low back pain and sciatica. It is designed to apply spinal decompressive forces to compressive and degenerative injuries of the spine. It has been found to provide relief of pain and symptoms associated with herniated discs, bulging or protruding intervertebral discs, degenerative disc disease, posterior facet syndrome and sciatica.

Device Description
The DRX9000 True Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression System provides accurately controlled tensions designed to relax and confuse paraspinal muscles and allow distractive forces to decompress intervertebral spinal disc space. The user interface provided by the treatment computer constantly updates a servo-amplifier controlling a servo-motor to immediately and safely apply forces as determined by qualified healthcare personnel. Load-cell feedback is utilized to further verify and adjust tensile forces, allowing for variations in patient posture and outside forces such that continuous and smooth tension is experienced by the patient. The patient safety switch is held by the patient who at anytime and for any reason may quickly pause any tensile forces. This patient safety switch is monitored and executed by two redundant systems. Integral to effective spinal decompression and included in the device are continuous load-cell tensile feedback into the treatment computer, dedicated and matched servo-amplifier and servo-motor, smoothly modulated cyclic tension application (high and low tension plateaus transitioned into via non-linear tension change), two segment (upper and lower) textile patient harness, patient safety switch, and free-floating lower body mattress. The free-floating lower body mattress allows the interdiscal segments of the lumbar spine to decompress at their own rate. As tension is cycled, the lower body can extend independent of the upper body which is held in place via an upper body textile patient harness. The treatment bed and textile harness allow the patient to relax completely and require no conscious exertion on the part of the patient. Total patient relaxation encourages paraspinal muscle relaxation from both a physical and psychological standpoint and is a key to spinal decompression.
