Intended Use
The Expanded Spectrum Photo Therapy Device (ESPT-3X) is intended to emit energy in the infrared spectrum to provide topical heating for the purpose of elevating tissue temperature for: - the temporary relief of minor muscle and joint pain and stiffness, . - minor arthritis pain, . - muscle spasm, 0 - the temporary increase in local blood circulation and/or . - promoting relaxation of muscle. . The ESPT-3X is for prescription use only.
Device Description
The ESPT-3X console is a non-invasive, portable, therapeutic medical laser designed to deliver high level (Class IV) energy/power for the purpose of reducing musculoskeletal pain. A "hand piece" accessory evenly delivers a Class IV laser to the target tissue. This channel is equipped with a red aiming beam (1 mW) that provides visible illumination of the area being treated. The console is equipped with a separate and independent timer that is manually set by the operator.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a laser therapy device with manual controls and a timer, with no mention of AI, ML, or any data processing that would suggest such technology.

Yes
The device is described as a "therapeutic medical laser" intended for "topical heating for the purpose of elevating tissue temperature" to alleviate pain and promote muscle relaxation. These are therapeutic uses.

No
The device description states its purpose is "to provide topical heating for the purpose of elevating tissue temperature" and "to deliver high level (Class IV) energy/power for the purpose of reducing musculoskeletal pain," which are therapeutic, not diagnostic, functions.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "therapeutic medical laser" with a "console" and a "hand piece accessory" that delivers a "Class IV laser." These are hardware components, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is for providing topical heating to elevate tissue temperature for the relief of pain, stiffness, muscle spasm, and to increase local blood circulation and promote muscle relaxation. These are all therapeutic applications performed on the body.
  • Device Description: The device is described as a therapeutic medical laser designed to deliver energy for reducing musculoskeletal pain. This is a physical therapy/treatment device.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, tissue) in vitro (outside the body) to provide information about a physiological state, health, or disease.

IVD devices are used to perform tests on samples taken from the body to diagnose, monitor, or screen for conditions. This device is used to directly treat the body.

Dear Mr. Lehtonen:

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.
