Intended Use
The AD-2129A TENS device is intended for temporary relief of pain associated with sore and aching muscles due to strain from exercise or normal household and work activities. It is also intended for symptomatic relief and management of chronic, intractable pain and relief of pain associated with arthritis.
Device Description
The AD-2129A Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulator(TENS) is transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulator for relief of muscular pain and sold without prescription. The device consists of a microprocessor, buttons, electrical pads, and display. Keys can control the device to choose the operation modes, adjust pulse output strength, then the channel that effectively transfers your desired choice of programmed electrical pulses directly through electrode adhesive pads to the suggested area of the body where the electrodes are placed, causing minimal muscle stimulation. The LCD display can show user the mode and strength chosen and other information like date and time Self-adhesive electrodes are used in this devices, and they are intended for use as the disposable, conductive adhesive interface between the patient's skin and the Electrical Stimulator. The electrodes is for OTC use, and mainly consists of substrate and wire.
More Information

To identify the Reference Device(s) K/DEN number, I need to look for the "Reference Device(s)" section in the provided text.

In your input, the "Reference Device(s)" section explicitly states:
Reference Device(s)
Not Found

Therefore, there are no Reference Device(s) K/DEN numbers listed.

No
The document describes a standard TENS device with a microprocessor for controlling modes and strength. There is no mention of AI, ML, or any learning or adaptive capabilities based on data. The performance studies are focused on safety and compatibility, not algorithmic performance.

Yes.

The device is marketed for the temporary relief and management of pain associated with sore muscles and arthritis, which are therapeutic claims.

No

The device is a Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulator (TENS) intended for temporary relief and management of pain. It is not described as diagnosing any condition, but rather providing symptomatic relief.

No

The device description explicitly states it consists of hardware components including a microprocessor, buttons, electrical pads, and display, in addition to software control.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for the temporary relief and management of pain by applying electrical stimulation to the body. This is a therapeutic use, not a diagnostic one.
  • Device Description: The description details a TENS device that delivers electrical pulses to the body through electrodes. This is consistent with a therapeutic device, not a device that analyzes samples from the body (which is the core function of an IVD).
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), reagents, or any other components typically associated with in vitro diagnostics.

In summary, the AD-2129A TENS device is a therapeutic device used for pain relief, not a diagnostic device used to test samples outside the body.

The new device AD-2129A TENS has the same intended use, design, technological characteristics as the predicate device K131159 and K140168. Only pulse frequency, pulse strength and the appearance are different, but the Electrical Safety test and the EMC test in this submission provides demonstrated that these small differences do not raise any new questions of safety and effectiveness to the new devices.
