No
The device description focuses on physical garments and electrode placement, with no mention of AI or ML technologies. The performance studies are related to electrical continuity and mechanical properties, not algorithmic performance.
No
The device is described as an accessory (conductive garments) to facilitate electrode placement and maintenance for stimulation treatments, not the stimulator itself. The stimulator is the therapeutic device.
No
The device is described as conductive garments and accessories used with stimulators to facilitate electrode placement for electrostimulation treatments. Its purpose is to aid in the delivery of a treatment (electrostimulation), not to diagnose a condition.
No
The device description clearly outlines physical components (garments, metal snaps, electrode pads, cables) and performance studies related to electrical continuity and mechanical attachment, indicating it is a hardware device, not software-only.
Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
- Device Function: The RS Medical Conductive Garments are accessories used with electrical stimulators. Their purpose is to facilitate the placement and maintenance of electrodes on the patient's back for therapeutic electrical stimulation.
- Lack of Biological Sample Analysis: The description clearly states the garments are used for external application to the body and do not involve the analysis of any biological samples.
The device is a physical accessory for an electrical stimulation therapy, not a diagnostic test performed on a biological sample.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The RS Medical Conductive Garments and associated accessories are indicated for use with RS Medical Stimulators to facilitate electrode placement and maintenance of electrode positioning for stimulation treatments of the lower, middle and upper back.

Device Description
The RS Medical Conductive Garments consist of the RS-LB™ Low Back Conductive Garment and RS-FBG" Full Back Conductive Garment. The RS-LB" Low Back Conductive Garment is a wrap designed for the low back that uses Velcro® closures to affix the garment around the waist and lower back. The garment contains eight conductive metal snaps onto which a snap cable can be connected to the outside of the garment. These snaps extend through the garment and an adhesive backed electrode pad is affixed to the snap surface on the inner surface of the garment. The garment allows for easy electrode placement and stabilization of electrode locations on the back for repeated electrostimulation treatments to facilitate treatment compliance. The RS-FBG" Full Back Conductive Garment is a similar vest type compliance accessory that has sixteen metal snaps spaced from the lower back on either side of the spinal column to the middle and upper back. The RS Medical Conductive Garments utilize the identical UltraStim® Electrode pads used with the predicate device. The RS Medical Conductive Garments share the same principle of operation and intended use with the predicate device, the design features of the conductive metal snaps are the same and the products utilize the identical UltraStim® Electrode pads (private labeled under RS Medical's name) used with the predicate device.

Summary of Performance Studies
The RS Medical Conductive Garments were tested for electrical continuity from stimulator through cable sets through the garments' metal snaps to the double sided cutaneous electrode. The results of continuity testing met applicable specifications. The garments metal snaps were tested for attachment and removal force of the associated cable sets and safety snap covers and met applicable specifications.

3. Legally Market Predicate Devices
The RS-LB™ Low Back Conductive Garment and RS-FBG™ Full Back Conductive Garment are substantially equivalent to the Axelgaard Manufacturing Company, Ltd. UltraStim® Kit (K013532) which include UltraStim® Electrodes (K000947).
4. Indications for Use
The RS Medical Conductive Garments and associated accessories are indicated for use with RS Medical Stimulators to facilitate electrode placement and maintenance of electrode positioning for stimulation treatments of the lower, middle and upper back.
5. Device Description and Substantial Equivalence
The RS Medical Conductive Garments consist of the RS-LB™ Low Back Conductive Garment and RS-FBG" Full Back Conductive Garment. The RS-LB" Low Back Conductive Garment is a wrap designed for the low back that uses Velcro® closures to affix the garment around the waist and lower back. The garment contains eight conductive metal snaps onto which a snap cable can be connected to the outside of the garment. These snaps extend through the garment and an adhesive backed

electrode pad is affixed to the snap surface on the inner surface of the garment. The garment allows for easy electrode placement and stabilization of electrode locations on the back for repeated electrostimulation treatments to facilitate treatment compliance. The RS-FBG" Full Back Conductive Garment is a similar vest type compliance accessory that has sixteen metal snaps spaced from the lower back on either side of the spinal column to the middle and upper back. The RS Medical Conductive Garments utilize the identical UltraStim® Electrode pads used with the predicate device. The RS Medical Conductive Garments share the same principle of operation and intended use with the predicate device, the design features of the conductive metal snaps are the same and the products utilize the identical UltraStim® Electrode pads (private labeled under RS Medical's name) used with the predicate device.
Based on the similarities, the RS Medical Conductive Garments and accessories are deemed to be substantially equivalent to the predicate device, the Axelgaard Manufacturing Company Ltd, UltraStim® Kit.
6. Non-Clinical Performance
The RS Medical Conductive Garments were tested for electrical continuity from stimulator through cable sets through the garments' metal snaps to the double sided cutaneous electrode. The results of continuity testing met applicable specifications. The garments metal snaps were tested for attachment and removal force of the associated cable sets and safety snap covers and met applicable specifications.
7. Conclusions
The non-clinical performance test results demonstrate that the RS Medical Conductive Garments are safe and effective in delivering electrical stimulation to the attached cutaneous electrodes. The devices perform in an equivalent manner as does the predicate device, the Axelgaard Manufacturing Company Ltd, UltraStim® Kit.
