Intended Use
The ZX2 Laser System is intended to emit energy in the infrared spectrum to provide topical heating for the purpose of elevating tissue temperature for the temporary relief of minor muscle and joint pain and stiffness, minor arthritis pain, or muscle spasm; the temporary increase in local blood circulation; and / or the temporary relaxation of muscle.
Device Description
The ZX2 Laser System is a non-invasive, low energy, infrared therapeutic medical laser. The ZX2 Laser incorporates an AC Control Unit and a variety of hand-held laser probes.

No
The summary describes a laser system for therapeutic heating and pain relief, with no mention of AI or ML in its description, intended use, or performance studies.

Yes.
The device's intended use is to provide topical heating for the temporary relief of minor muscle and joint pain and stiffness, minor arthritis pain, or muscle spasm, which are therapeutic claims. It also explicitly states that it is a "therapeutic medical laser."

No

The device is described as a therapeutic medical laser system intended for topical heating to temporarily relieve pain and increase blood circulation. Its purpose is treatment, not diagnosis.

No

The device description clearly outlines hardware components including a control unit, hand-held laser probes, power supply, electronics, user interface panel, key switch, emergency stop button, and a heat sensor. This is not a software-only device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is for "topical heating for the purpose of elevating tissue temperature for the temporary relief of minor muscle and joint pain and stiffness, minor arthritis pain, or muscle spasm; the temporary increase in local blood circulation; and / or the temporary relaxation of muscle." This describes a therapeutic treatment applied directly to the body, not a diagnostic test performed on samples taken from the body.
  • Device Description: The description details a laser system that emits infrared energy for therapeutic purposes. It does not mention any components or functions related to analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.).
  • Lack of IVD Indicators: There is no mention of analyzing samples, detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information based on laboratory tests.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or screening purposes. This device's function is entirely focused on providing therapeutic heat to the body.

Summary of Performance Studies

Non-clinical Testing: Therapeutic Heat Temperature Data. The ZX2 Laser System is capable of achieving therapeutic heat temperature range of 40-45 degrees centigrade. An increase in topical heating of the tissue level by at least 5 degrees centigrade was reached within 3-4 minutes. The therapeutic temperature range was maintained until the device was turned off and for the 10 minute testing time. The spot size for the devices used in the Temperature vs. Time studies was 9.35 cm2. The average ambient temperature at the beginning of the testing was approximately 19 degrees centigrade. The temperature versus time testing was performed on various body areas: i.e., knee, shoulder, neck and low back and on three (3) different individuals. The pre-exposed topical skin temperature ranged from 31 to 35 degrees centigrade. The topical temperature during exposure following brief stabilization time ranged from 27 to 33 degrees centigrade. These data demonstrate the ZX2 Laser System meets the generally accepted topical temperature range for therapeutic heat of 40-45 degrees centigrade during the recommended treatment time of 10 minutes. The ZX2 incorporates a heat sensor that has an automatic shut off once the device exceeds a temperature of 44 degrees centigrade.

Non-clinical Testing VII.

THERAPEUTIC HEAT TEMPERATURE DATA

The ZX2 Laser System is capable of achieving therapeutic heat temperature range of 40 - 45 degrees centigrade as accepted by the FDA. An increase in topical heating of the tissue level by at least 5° centigrade was reached within 3 - 4 minute(s) demonstrated in the bench testing that was conducted on the treatment head. - The therapeutic temperature range was maintained until the device was turned off. The achieved therapeutic temperature range was maintained for the 10 minute testing time. The spot size for the devices used in the Temperature vs. Time studies was 9.35 cm2.

The use of light energy to generate heat for therapeutic use has been well documented and is generally accepted alternative treatment modality for the temporary relief of pain and tissue repair.

The ZX2 Laser System emits infrared light energy to provide topical heating for the purpose of elevating tissue temperature to safely increase local blood flow and circulation where heat is applied. These devices have been used in Europe for over 10 years demonstrating clinical efficacy and benefit with no reported adverse effects.

The average ambient temperature at the beginning of the testing was approximately 19 degrees centigrade. The temperature versus time testing was performed on various body areas: i.e., knee, shoulder, neck and low back and on three (3) different individuals. The data were analyzed and an average of the temperature for each body area is summarized.

The pre-exposed topical skin temperature ranged from 31 to 35 degrees centigrade. The topical temperature during exposure following brief stabilization time ranged from 27 to 33 degrees centigrade. These data demonstrate the ZX2 Laser System meets the generally accepted topical temperature range for therapeutic heat of 40 - 45 degrees centigrade during the recommended treatment time of 10 minutes. Representative results of the Temperature vs. Time tests are summarized in Tables 1 - 3 below. To ensure the topical skin temperature does not exceed the maximum acceptable therapeutic heat temperature, the ZX2 incorporates a heat sensor that has an automatic shut off once the device exceeds a temperature of 44 degrees centigrade.

VIII. Conclusions

By definition, a device is substantially equivalent to a predicate device when the device has the same intended use and the same technological characteristics as the previously cleared predicate device. Or the device may have the same intended use and different technological characteristics if they can be demonstrated that the device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device, and that the new device does not raise different questions regards its safety and effectiveness as compared to the predicate device.

The ZX2 Laser has the same intended uses, technical, functional and performance characteristics as the predicate device listed above. The ZX2 Laser is designed to comply with applicable performance standards promulgated by Federal Food and Drug Administration.
