Intended Use
The Painmaster MCT Patch is indicated 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. -temporary relief of pain associated with sore and aching muscles in the upper and lower extremities (arm and/or leg) due to strain from exercise or normal household and work activities. -symptomatic relief of chronic, intractable pain.
Device Description
The Painmaster MCT Patch operates in a single non-programmable microcurrent mode, delivering a pulsed monophasic waveform that provides electrical stimulation to the body to relieve pain. The Painmaster MCT Patch consists of two electrodes mounted on adhesive material connected by a small-diameter wire. One electrode contains the control unit that includes a small circuit board, a battery, and an LED light.
More Information

No
The document explicitly states "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML: Not Found" and describes a simple, non-programmable electrical stimulation device.

Yes
The device is indicated for temporary relief of pain and symptomatic relief of chronic, intractable pain, which are therapeutic uses.

No
The device is used for temporary relief of pain by providing electrical stimulation, not for diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description explicitly states it consists of electrodes, a control unit with a circuit board, battery, and LED light, which are hardware components.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
  • Painmaster MCT Patch Function: The description clearly states that the Painmaster MCT Patch is an electrical stimulation device applied to the body to relieve pain. It delivers a pulsed monophasic waveform directly to the skin.
  • Lack of Sample Analysis: There is no mention of the device collecting or analyzing any biological samples from the patient. Its function is purely external and therapeutic.

Therefore, the Painmaster MCT Patch falls under the category of a therapeutic device, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

Additional performance testing was not required to determine the substantial equivalence of this device because the device is the same as the device previously cleared via 510(k) K090442, K130114 and MCT F5 model K013167.

The MCT Patch is compliant with the following standards.

  • . IEC/EN60601-1, 3rd Ed, (2012) Medical Electrical Equipment Part1: General Requirements for Safety and essential performance.
  • UL2601-1 Medical Electrical Equipment Part1: General Requirements for Safety and . essential performance
  • . IEC 60601-2-10, Medical Equipment Part2: Particular Requirements for the Safety of Nerve and Muscle Stimulators.
  • IEC/EN60601-1-2: Electromagnetic Emissions and Immunity Requirements for Medical . Electrical Equipment.

A usability study was conducted in support of the K090042 submission and demonstrated that users could correctly identify themselves as candidates for treatment, and could properly assemble and apply the device according to the instructions for use. The revised labeling is comparable to the previous labeling in presentation of device selection and application.

No additional usability evaluation or clinical data was required in support of this submission.

Dear Ms. James:

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.

Conclusion

The Painmaster MCT Patch as the same intended use and technological characteristics as the cleared devices (K090042, K130114, and K013167). Minor revisions to include the indications for over-the-counter use do not impact the safety or effectiveness. Differences in the Painmaster MCT Patch and the predicate devices do not present new issues of safety and effectiveness.
