The provided text does not mention AI, ML, or any related concepts like deep learning, neural networks, or image processing that would typically indicate the presence of AI/ML in a medical device. The description focuses on topical heating and light therapy.
Yes
The device is indicated for therapeutic purposes such as muscle relaxation, pain relief, and increased local blood circulation.
No
The device description indicates its purpose is for therapeutic applications like muscle relaxation, pain relief, and increasing blood circulation, not for diagnosing conditions.
No
The device description clearly states it is a "chamber" with a "treatment light source," indicating it is a physical hardware device, not software only.
Based on the provided information, the Life Vessel™ is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use describes the device as providing topical heating for therapeutic purposes (muscle relaxation, pain relief, increased blood circulation). This is a direct treatment applied to the body.
- Device Description: The description details a chamber where a patient lies and receives light treatment. This is an in-vivo application (on a living organism).
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: IVD devices are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, tissue) taken from the human body to provide information about a person's health. The Life Vessel™ does not involve the analysis of such specimens.
- Performance Data: The performance data focuses on the device's ability to increase skin temperature, which is relevant to its therapeutic heating function, not diagnostic analysis of specimens.
- Predicate Devices: The listed predicate devices are all light therapy or heating devices used for therapeutic purposes, not IVD devices.
Therefore, the Life Vessel™ is a therapeutic device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Life Vessel™ is indicated to provide topical heating for the relaxation of muscles and relief of muscle spasms, temporary relief of minor muscle and joint aches, pains and stiffness, temporary relief of minor pain and stiffness associated with arthritis, and to temporarily increase local blood circulation.

Dear Ms. Kolton:
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 application (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 such additional controls.
