No
The summary does not mention AI, ML, or any related concepts like image processing, training sets, or performance metrics typically associated with AI/ML devices. The description focuses on the physical properties and intended therapeutic effects of infrared energy.
Yes
The device is intended to provide therapeutic benefits such as pain relief, increased circulation, and muscle relaxation, which are all characteristic of a therapeutic device.
No
The provided text describes the device's intended use as providing therapeutic relief (e.g., pain relief, increased circulation) through topical heating, not for diagnosing any medical condition.
No
The intended use describes a device that emits energy in the infrared spectrum for topical heating, which inherently requires hardware to generate and deliver this energy. The summary does not mention any software-only components or functions.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes a device that applies energy to the body for therapeutic purposes (heating tissue for pain relief, circulation, muscle relaxation, etc.). This is a therapeutic device, not a diagnostic one.
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, tissue) taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. The provided description does not involve any such examination of specimens.
Therefore, the device described is a therapeutic device, not an IVD.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
Power settings in the range of 5-50 Watts 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, the temporary relief of minor joint pain associated with arthritis, the temporary increase in local circulation where applied, and the relaxation of muscles. In addition, the ThermaPulse may also help muscle spasms, minor sprains and strains, and minor muscular back pain.

Dear Ms. Timberlake:
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 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); medical device reporting (reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803); good manufacturing practice requirements as set
