The waveform is a square wave with various pulse width options. The anode comprises of an ECG electrode (not supplied). The cathode comprises a permanently attached nerve mapping probe (supplied), and/or a separate nerve locating needle (not supplied), depending on the mode of the unit.
More Information

Not Found

No
The document describes a standard nerve stimulator with constant current and square wave output. There is no mention of AI, ML, or any learning or adaptive capabilities.

No
This device is for nerve stimulation for mapping and locating, which are diagnostic/guiding purposes for surgical procedures, not for treatment or therapy.

No

Explanation: The device is described as a nerve stimulation device used for nerve mapping and locating during regional anesthesia. Its purpose is to stimulate nerves, not to diagnose medical conditions or provide diagnostic information.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "battery powered peripheral nerve stimulator" and includes hardware components like a "constant current source," "permanently attached nerve mapping probe (supplied)," and relies on "invasive electrodes/needles (not supplied)." This indicates it is a hardware device with associated software, not a software-only medical device.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This testing is done outside of the body (in vitro).
  • Device Function: The STIMPOD NMS400 is a nerve stimulation device. It applies electrical stimulation to the body to help locate nerves. It does not analyze samples taken from the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is for nerve mapping and locating during regional anesthesia, which is a procedure performed directly on the patient.

Therefore, based on the provided information, the STIMPOD NMS400 falls under the category of a therapeutic or diagnostic device used in vivo (within the body), not an in vitro diagnostic device.
