To be used for temporary relief of pain associated with sore and aching muscles in the upper and lower extremities (e.g., arm and/or leg) and lower back due to strain from exercise or normal household and work activities.
Device Description
The 5000Z/Firefly is a portable, single channel TENS device with two pre-programmed operational modes. It is powered by 2 standard AAA alkaline or rechargeable batteries. All operational modes produce the Prizm Medical Bi-Sourced waveform. The user selects a pre-programmed mode by using the program buttons to select one of two program options. The user is able to adjust the intensity up or down. The 5000Z/Firefly is intended for Over-the-Counter sale. The 5000Z/Firefly battery icon on the LED will flash when the batteries need replacement.
More Information

Not Found

No
The device description and performance studies do not mention any AI or ML capabilities. The device has pre-programmed modes and user-adjustable intensity, which are typical features of traditional TENS devices.

Yes

The device is a TENS device, which is a type of therapeutic device used for pain relief, as stated in its intended use.

No

The device is described as a TENS device used for temporary pain relief, not for diagnosing conditions.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "portable, single channel TENS device" powered by batteries and includes physical components like program buttons and an LED display. The performance studies also mention electrical and mechanical tests, indicating hardware.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices that are used to examine specimens taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The provided information clearly describes a TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) device. Its intended use is for the temporary relief of pain associated with sore and aching muscles. This is a therapeutic device that applies electrical stimulation to the body's surface, not a device that analyzes biological samples.

The description and intended use are entirely focused on external application for pain relief, which is the function of a TENS device, not an IVD.

V. DEVICE DESCRIPTION

The 5000Z/Firefly is a portable, single channel TENS device with two pre-programmed operational modes. It is powered by 2 standard AAA alkaline or rechargeable batteries. All operational modes produce the Prizm Medical Bi-Sourced waveform. The user

selects a pre-programmed mode by using the program buttons to select one of two program options. The user is able to adjust the intensity up or down. The 5000Z/Firefly is intended for Over-the-Counter sale. The 5000Z/Firefly battery icon on the LED will flash when the batteries need replacement.

COMPARISON OF TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS WITH THE VI. PREDICATE DEVICE

The Prizm Medical 5000Z/Firefly TENS System has the same indications for use as the predicate device. The functional technological characteristics are the same in that there are no changes to the output modes (waveforms) or programs for the 5000Z/Firefly compared to the 5000Z system. The differences between the 5000Z system and 5000Z/Firefly are an increase in voltage, and the user interface. The 5000Z system has a small LED display and membrane switches for controlling and displaying adjustable settings. The 5000Z/Firefly has a key mat style push button system and a larger LED screen controlling and displaying the adjustable settings.

VII. PERFORMANCE DATA

Non-clinical Testing:

The software verification has been carried out according to the FDA guidance for the content of premarket submissions for software contained in medical devices.

Verification of the Prizm Medical 5000Z/Firefly TENS System includes electrical and mechanical tests to show that the device meets its product specifications over a range of operating and storage conditions.

Validation testing for the Prizm Medical 5000Z/Firefly TENS System includes testing to show the device meets user needs according to marketing requirements.

Clinical Testing:

The Prizm Medical 5000Z/Firefly TENS System does not require clinical testing in order to determine substantial equivalence to the predicate unmodified device because the programs and electrical output characteristics of the two devices are the same.

CONCLUSION VIII.

Technological characteristics, features, specifications, materials and intended uses of the Prizm Medical 5000Z/Firefly TENS System are substantially equivalent to the predicate device(s). The electrical stimulation provided by the Prizm Medical 5000Z/Firefly TENS System is similar to the commonly employed TENS devices that have been cleared for marketing without prescription labeling. The engineering differences do not: (1) affect the intended use or (2) alter the fundamental scientific technology of the device. The non-clinical testing demonstrates that the Prizm Medical 5000Z/Firefly TENS System performs as well as the predicate device(s). There are no new safety or effectiveness issues concerning the new device.
