Intended Use
The Ultima Five™ external, non-invasive, non-narcotic, electrotherapy device is indicated for use as an adjunctive therapy in providing symptomatic pain relief for chronic, acute, or post-operative pain.
Device Description
The Ultima Five consists of electrodes, the lead wires, and the signal generator. The Stimulator is portable, battery operated and rechargeable. The Lead wires connect the electrodes to the stimulator. These electrodes complete an electrical circuit allowing current to flow. The stimulator produces a pulsed electrical signal through the lead wires and electrodes at the treatment site.

No
The summary describes a standard electrotherapy device with no mention of AI or ML capabilities in its intended use, device description, or any other section. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" field is explicitly marked as "Not Found".

Yes
The device is indicated for "symptomatic pain relief for chronic, acute, or post-operative pain," which is a therapeutic purpose.

No
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" states the device is for "symptomatic pain relief" and "adjunctive therapy," which suggests a therapeutic rather than a diagnostic function.

No

The device description explicitly lists hardware components: electrodes, lead wires, and a signal generator.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for "symptomatic pain relief for chronic, acute, or post-operative pain" through electrotherapy. This is a therapeutic application, not a diagnostic one.
  • Device Description: The device description details an external, non-invasive electrotherapy device that applies electrical signals to the body. This is consistent with a therapeutic device, not a device that analyzes samples from the body (which is the core of IVD).
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), performing tests on these samples, or providing diagnostic information about a patient's health status.

IVD devices are specifically designed to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. The Ultima Five™ does not fit this description.

Device Description

The Ultima Five consists of electrodes, the lead wires, and the signal generator. The Stimulator is portable, battery operated and rechargeable. The Lead wires connect the electrodes to the stimulator. These electrodes complete an electrical circuit allowing current to flow. The stimulator produces a pulsed electrical signal through the lead wires and electrodes at the treatment site.
The Ultima Five and the Easymed TN28c generate the exact same electrical output. They produce the same frequency. The same wave form and similar modes. The same voltage output range, as well as the same dual channel output performance. Pulse widths and max output values are identical as well. The Ultima Five utilizes an LCD screen to display the settings .

Dear Mr Lefkovitz:

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. 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.
