No
Explanation: The device description states its intended use is for "primary treatment modality for the management of neck and back pain" through "intermittent/static cervical traction." It applies force to the patient's spine and does not mention any diagnostic functions.
No
The device description clearly details a physical, mechanical device with components like a gas spring, motorized actuator, weight index bar, and headrest, which are hardware components. While it mentions a timer and actuator control, the core function and description are centered around the physical application of traction force through mechanical means.
Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
- Device Function: The CycleTrac® Automated Cervical Traction Unit is a physical therapy device designed to apply mechanical force (traction) to the spine to relieve pain associated with musculoskeletal conditions. It does not perform any tests on biological samples.
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's a "primary treatment modality for the management of neck and back pain" through "intermittent/static cervical traction." This is a physical treatment, not a diagnostic test.
The description focuses on the mechanical aspects of the device and how it applies force, which is consistent with a physical therapy or rehabilitation device, not an IVD.

Device Description
The CycleTrac® CT-5000 Automated Cervical Traction Unit is a device intended to apply intermittent or static traction force to the patients' spine. Unlike other traction devices, the CycleTrac® CT-5000 attaches to a Standard 6 Foot Plinth or a 6 Foot Stationary Chiropractic Adjusting Table (not included). When the CycleTrac® CT-5000 is properly attached to the treatment table it is 26.6 inches long and stands 42 inches off the floor. The CycleTrac CT-5000 system has a total weight of 14.5 pounds. The traction force is generated by a non-powered, factory certified gas spring capable of generating up to 35 pounds of load. By adjusting the pivot point of the energized spring along the weight index bar, the traction pull force on the traction pull cord can range from 15 to 35 pounds. The engineering principle behind this change in force is the mechanical advantage created when the energized spring pivot point is adjusted along the weight index bar. As the pivot point moves further from the traction pull cord intercept, the force required to compress the energized spring decreases. As the energized spring pivot peint gets closer to the traction pull cord intercept, the mechanical advantage lessens and the force required to compress the energized spring increases. When the pivot point is next to the traction pull cord intercept. there is no mechanical advantage and the force required to compress the energized spring is equal to the maximum output of the energized spring. 35 pounds. The force required to compress the energized spring is equal to the push back force of the energized spring on the traction cord, or the traction pull force on the traction pull cord.
The motorized actuator pulls on the extension linkage attached to the weight index bar, which compresses the energized spring, parking it in the traction. To return to the traction ON position, the actuator is extended through the extension linkages attached to the weight index bar allowing the energized spring to freely extend, creating a force on the weight index bar. The force on the weight index bar is transferred to the traction pull cord placing the CT-5000 into the traction on position.
The ON-OFF intermittent cervical traction cycle is controlled by the timer. The traction treatment time, traction ON time, and the traction OFF time are pre-set on the timer. The settings are used by the timer to prompt the actuator to extend and retract, which results in the traction ON / traction OFF intermittent cervical traction cycle. Therefore, the timer and the motorized actuator do not contribute to the traction pull force on the patient. The traction pull force is generated solely by the NON POWERED, factory certified, 35 pound energized spring; the CT-5000 does not require power to generate the traction pull force.
The unique headrest design allows for 100% of the traction force toward the occiput without forehead and chin restrains and eliminates the possibility of Temporomandibular Joint problems. The headrest is made of powder coated aluminum and covered with a comfort pad to keep the patient comfortable.

PT Products, Inc. believes that a comparison of the CycleTrac® CT-5000 Automated Cervical Traction Unit to the predicate devices indicates that there are no significant differences between the devices when comparing the cervical traction mode. Therefore, the CycleTrac® CT-5000 Automated Cervical Traction Unit should not raise any concerns about safety and effectiveness.
Intended Use:
The intended use for the CycleTrac® Automated Cervical Traction Unit is to provide a primary treatment modality for the management of neck and back pain. Intermittent/static cervical traction results in cervical disk decompression (unloading due to distraction and positioning) which provides relief of pain associated with a variety of conditions involving anatomical dysfunctions of the spine, including protruding or herniated intervertebral discs, degenerative discs and acute facet problems.
CycleTrac® CT-5000 and Predicate Device Similarities:
- . Both systems create a traction pull force.
- Both traction systems use a cord to transmit the traction pull force to a cushioned cradle on which the back of the patient's head rests.
- . Both traction systems use the generated traction pull force to create an axial pull in the occiput region of the patient's head.

- Both traction systems deliver cervical traction with the patient in the supine position. .
- Both traction systems perform intermittent cervical traction or static cervical traction. .
- With both traction systems, the operator can adjust the angle (flexion angle) of traction. .
- With both traction systems, the traction treatment time, the traction ON time, and the . traction OFF time are adjustable and set by the operator.
- Both traction systems have an emergency call cord. .
- Both traction systems use a cushioned cradle, which can be adjusted to conform to the . width of the patient's neck.
- Both traction systems automatically go into the traction OFF position at the end of the . patient's traction session.
- To alert the operator that the patient's traction session is over, both traction systems . beep repeatedly at the conclusion of the traction session.
- Both traction systems automatically power OFF at the conclusion of a traction session. .
CycleTrac® CT-5000 and Predicate Device Differences:
- The CT-5000 traction unit requires low voltage DC input to the system (12 volts DC, 3 . amperes). The CT-5000 has a UL medically approved power supply that takes common 120 or 220/240 volt AC power and converts it to the required 12 volts DC, 3 amperes system input. The predicate device (Chattanooga Traction Table TXE-1 and TXF-1, with the Saunders Cervical Headrest) requires a high voltage AC input to the system (120 volt AC or 220/240 volt AC).
- The CT-5000 cervical traction pull force range is 16-36 pounds. The predicate device . pull force range is 0-50 pounds.
- The CT-5000 does not require the use of head straps to remain in the proper position . during traction. The head strap constraint used by the predicate device can produce pressure marks on the patient's forehead and can cause discomfort. In addition, the lack of a head strap on the CT-5000 allows the patient to terminate treatment by simply lifting their head from the headrest assembly, or by using the call cord button to stop the traction therapy.
- The cervical pull force applied by the energized gas spring on the CT-5000 is fixed and t will never be greater than the initial calibrated value of 35 pounds. Because the traction force delivered to the patient is independent of the electric motor, in the event of a motor malfunction, the traction force can never exceed the force of the gas spring. The predicate device is capable of pulling up to 200 pounds, which exceeds the predicate device use range of 0-50 pounds of pull force.

510(k) Summary, cont.
- The CT-5000 emergency call cord is removable, making it replaceable in the case of . malfunction. The predicate device emergency call cord is fixed, making it more difficult to replace.
- . The CT-5000 headrest pad has a calibration scale for the V-Block spacing that can be recorded for each patient to allow for comfort from treatment. The predicate device does not have a calibration setting.
