The description focuses on basic electrical stimulation and wireless control, with no mention of AI/ML terms or functionalities like adaptive stimulation based on user feedback or data analysis.
Yes
The device is described as a Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulator (TENS) intended for the temporary relief of pain associated with sore and aching muscles in the lower back by providing analgesic electrical stimulus to reduce the perception of pain. This directly aligns with the definition of a therapeutic device, as its primary purpose is to treat or alleviate a medical condition (pain).
No
The device is described as a Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulator (TENS) intended for pain relief through electrical stimulation, not for diagnosing medical conditions. It provides an analgesic electrical stimulus to reduce the perception of pain, which is a therapeutic function, not a diagnostic one.
No
The device description explicitly states it is a battery-powered transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulator with a current generator, electrodes, and hydrogel pads, indicating it is a hardware device with a wireless remote control.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- Device Function: This device is a Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulator (TENS). It applies electrical stimulus to the skin to relieve pain. It does not analyze any biological samples from the user.
- Intended Use: The intended use is to provide temporary pain relief by stimulating nerves through the skin. This is a therapeutic function, not a diagnostic one.
The description clearly indicates a device that interacts with the body externally for pain management, which falls outside the scope of In Vitro Diagnostics.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The device is for temporary relief of pain associated with sore and aching muscles in the lower back due to strain from exercise or normal household and work activities.
The intended use is to provide approximately thirty minutes of analgesic electrical stimulus to reduce the perception of pain by electrically stimulating peripheral nerves across healthy intact skin of the user's lower back.

Device Description
The device is a battery powered over the counter transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulator with a wireless remote control feature. The general purpose of the device is to apply an electrical stimulus to integral electrodes that are applied to a user's lower back to relieve pain. The device includes a current generator and permanently-affixed electrodes with user replaceable single patient use hydrogel pads (gel-pads) that may be reused for a limited number of reuses. The number of reuses of the gel-pads varv person-to-person dependent upon skin type, oils and pH levels. One side of the adhesive gel-pad adheres to the electrode, and the other the device to the healthy intact skin of the user's lower back to provide an analgesic electrical stimulus to the painful area. The user controls are located on a hand-held wireless remote control commonly referred to as a Key-fob. The user controls are simple straightforward power on/off and electrical stimulus intensity up/down.

Description:
The device is a battery powered over the counter transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulator with a wireless remote control feature. The general purpose of the device is to apply an electrical stimulus to integral electrodes that are applied to a user's lower back to relieve pain. The device includes a current generator and permanently-affixed electrodes with user replaceable single patient use hydrogel pads (gel-pads) that may be reused for a limited number of reuses. The number of reuses of the gel-pads varv person-to-person dependent upon skin type, oils and pH levels. One side of the adhesive gel-pad adheres to the electrode, and the other the device to the healthy intact skin of the user's lower back to provide an analgesic electrical stimulus to the painful area.

Accessories:
The device utilizes hydrogel pads) for achieving the indications for use and intended use. The composition of the gel-pads is common materials found in the electrode industry. The uniqueness of the gel-pads is in the shape. The maximum average power density of the electrodes with the gel-pads applied is less than 0.25 watts per square centimeter of electrode conductive surface area to reduce the risk of thermal burns which is consistent with the referenced predicate devices.

Substantially Equivalent Predicate Devices
The predicate devices PM3030" and T1040" utilize flexible wires between the electrodes and the electrical stimulus generator; thus, increases the indications for use to the lower back and to body surfaces with greater ranges of motion (e.g., knee, shoulder, elbow, and hip). The indications for use for the predicate device Painmaster™ MCT Patch is solely for application to the lower back; same as The Pain Pilot™ / WiTouch™ device.
The intended design of The Pain Pilot™ / WiTouch" device limits the application for use to the anatomical site of the back. The design includes carbon rubber electrodes that are intended for reuse and are permanently-affixed to a rigid surface of the electrical stimulus generator. The unique connection makes the electrodes integral to the generator. The connection and shape of the electrodes limit application of the device to the contours of the back. These unique characteristic of the integral electrodes are insignificant as it relates to safety and effectiveness, and is not critical to the intended use between the device and the referenced predicate devices.
The referenced predicate devices utilize affixed buttons as the sole method to control the electrical stimulus generator on/off and intensity up/down. The Pain Pilot" / WiTouch " device utilizes a wireless remote control radio frequency transceiver to control the electrical stimulus generator on/off and intensity up/down. The transceiver operates in the ISM radio frequency band for wireless medical technology. This uniqueness of controlling the electrical stimulus generator by utilizing a radio frequency transceiver is insignificant as it relates to safety and is not critical to the intended use between the device and the referenced predicate devices.
The characteristics of the analgesic electrical stimulus between the device and the referenced predicate devices are substantially equivalent as it relates to safety and effectiveness.
