Intended Use
The ODFS® Pace is intended to provide ankle dorsiflexion in individuals who have a dropped foot as a consequence of upper motor neuron injury. By detecting the swing phase of gait through a foot switch signal, appropriate electrical stimulation of the leg and ankle muscles may improve gait by flexing the foot of persons who have lost or impaired function. There may be additional benefits from FES such as muscle re-education, prevention/retardation of disuse atrophy, increased or maintained range of joint motion and increase in local blood flow. The ODFS® Pace is a medical device and should only be used under medical supervision for the treatment of dropped foot following an upper motor neuron injury.
Device Description
The ODFS® Pace is an external functional neuromuscular stimulator. It consists of a small, body worn, single channel stimulator which is triggered by a wired footswitch worn in the shoe. Electrical pulses are generated by the device in order to stimulate muscles in the lower limb. Triggering with a footswitch permits the stimulation to be varied according to the gait of the user. Stimulation produces contraction of the appropriate muscles to cause dorsiflexion of the ankle in individuals who have impaired or absent ability to pick up their foot during walking as a result of a neurological injury. This partial paralysis affecting the foot is commonly known as 'drop foot' or 'dropped foot'. The electrical stimulation is delivered via self adhesive skin surface electrodes. The electrodes may be flexibly placed according to the optimum response of the patient but typically are located over the common peroneal nerve as it passes near the head of the fibula. For individuals presenting with weakness and/or spasticity a muscle stimulation exercise program can be delivered by the ODFS® Pace. In this case the footswitch trigger is not used and the ODFS® Pace functions as a powered muscle stimulator. A clinician would determine the need for this application which can enabled from a setup option in the ODFS® Pace. (Default is to have the exercise disabled)
More Information

Not Found

No
The device description focuses on functional electrical stimulation triggered by a footswitch based on gait phase, without mentioning any AI/ML algorithms for data analysis, pattern recognition, or adaptive stimulation. The performance studies also focus on functional and electrical safety standards, not AI/ML performance metrics.

Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the device "may improve gait by flexing the foot of persons who have lost or impaired function" and lists "additional benefits from FES such as muscle re-education, prevention/retardation of disuse atrophy, increased or maintained range of joint motion and increase in local blood flow." These are all therapeutic outcomes.

No

Explanation: The ODFS® Pace is described as a functional neuromuscular stimulator that provides electrical stimulation to improve gait and muscle function. Its purpose is therapeutic, not to diagnose or detect a disease or condition.

No

The device description explicitly states it consists of a "small, body worn, single channel stimulator" and a "wired footswitch," which are hardware components. It also delivers electrical pulses via "self adhesive skin surface electrodes."

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • ODFS® Pace Function: The ODFS® Pace is an external functional neuromuscular stimulator. It directly interacts with the patient's body by delivering electrical pulses to stimulate muscles. It does not analyze biological specimens.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is to provide ankle dorsiflexion by stimulating muscles based on gait detection, not by analyzing biological samples.

Therefore, the ODFS® Pace falls under the category of a therapeutic or rehabilitative medical device, not an IVD.

5.6 Technological Characteristics and Substantial Equivalence

The technological characteristics of the ODFS® Pace and predicate devices are tabulated below. All the devices are battery powered and deliver electrical stimulation pulses of similar waveform, pulsewidth and frequency. The ODFS® Pace is a development of the ODFS III v6.2 and therefore has identical indications for use as an FES device. These indications correspond to the FES functions of the EMPI device. The exercise function of the ODFS® Pace corresponds to and is substantially equivalent to the NMS/NMES indications of the EMPI device.

Dear Dr. Crook:

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. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

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.
