No
The description focuses on standard electrical stimulation technology and wireless communication protocols, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities for data analysis, pattern recognition, or adaptive stimulation.
Yes
The device is clearly indicated for therapeutic purposes, including pain relief, muscle re-education, prevention of disuse atrophy, and increased circulation – all of which are medical treatments.
No
The device description and indications for use clearly state its function as an electrotherapy device for therapeutic purposes (e.g., muscle re-education, pain relief), not for diagnosing conditions.
No
The device description explicitly details hardware components including a remote control, stimulation modules, electrodes, and a docking station, all of which are essential for the device's function. While it includes software, it is not solely software.
Based on the provided information, the Chattanooga Revolution Wireless is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) taken from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, treatment, or prevention of disease.
- Chattanooga Revolution Wireless Function: The description clearly states that the Chattanooga Revolution Wireless is a clinical electrotherapy device that stimulates nerve fibers and muscles using electrical impulses transmitted by electrodes applied to the body. It is used for therapeutic purposes like muscle re-education, pain relief, and increasing circulation.
- No Specimen Analysis: The device does not involve the collection or analysis of any biological specimens from the patient.
Therefore, the Chattanooga Revolution Wireless falls under the category of a therapeutic medical device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Device Description
The Chattanooga Revolution Wireless is a neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) device, which stimulates nerve fibers by means of electrical impulses transmitted by electrodes. The electrical pulses generated by the Chattanooga "Revolution Wireless stimulate motor nerves to stimulate a muscular response. Depending on the parameters of the electrical impulses (pulse frequency, duration of contraction, duration of rest, and total session duration), different types of muscle work can be imposed on the stimulated muscles.
The device system is made up of a remote control, 4 stimulation modules, and electrodes, which are stored and shipped within the docking station which is used to recharge the remote and the modules. The docking station is powered by an AC-DC adapter.
The remote control is the interface between the stimulation modules and the user. It sends and receives information to and from the modules via a wireless network. The remote control allows the user to navigate through the user interface (UI), select stimulation program or objectives, set desired options and control the four (4) module intensities independently. The remote control is powered by a rechargeable battery.
The Chattanooga® Revolution Wireless stimulation module set is composed of 4 independent stimulation modules that are controlled via the remote control by a wireless connection. Each module is composed of two "pods" (1 battery "pod" and one stimulation "pod") linked by an electrical connection (cable). Two proprietary standard snap gel electrodes are also needed to connect each "pod" to the body. The modules are powered by a Lithium Polymer (LiPo) rechargeable 3.7[V] / ≥ 450 [mAh] battery.
The docking station is the part on which all the other components (modules, remote and accessories) are stored when the Chattanooga Revolution Wireless system is not in use. The docking is continuously connected to an AC wall socket and it allows charging simultaneously the 4 stimulation modules and the remote control. The docking main part is intended to be fixed and not for transportation purposes, but the tablet may be removed and used as a portable charging station for the remote and modules. The docking station includes a removable tray where the user can store electrodes, quick start guide, the remote and modules for transportation.
The wireless protocol of the Chattanooga® Revolution Wireless Device is a proprietary design of a Radio-Frequency protocol operating the 2.4 GHz ISM band. It is used to
- Send particular information from remote control to stimulation modules (stimulation settings)
- Send particular information from stimulation modules to remote control, like current stimulation level and stimulation module subsystem status,
- Transfer binary data to stimulation modules, and
- Allow synchronization from stimulation modules to remote control clocks.

The Chattanooga Revolution Wireless provides 14 programs: Trigger Point, Acute Pain, Chronic Pain, Muscle Pump Cycle, Muscle Pump Continuous, Increase ROM (Range of Motion), Decrease Muscle Tone, Fast Twitch Function, Muscle Atrophy, Slow Twitch Function, VMS-FR Dynamic 2 Channel, VMS-FR Dynamic 4 Channel, VMS-FR Static 2 Channel, and VMS-FR Static 4 Channel.
Comparison to the Predicate Device: Includes Table
The indications for use for the Revolution Wireless USA are a subset of those for the predicate device the Vectra Neo Clinical Therapy System. The predicate device has additional features, functions, and applications that are not included in the Revolution Wireless. Therefore, we are comparing the Revolution Wireless only to those functions of the predicate that are applicable.
The technological characteristics of the two devices are very similar for the comparable functions, but there are a few differences. The following table summarizes the similarities and differences between the technological characteristics of the two devices. The power sources of the two devices differ (Revolution is battery powered) and output specifications differ slightly between the two devices, but the Chattanooga Revolution Wireless conforms to required standards, and small differences in output do not raise any issues of safety or effectiveness. The Revolution Wireless differs from the predicate in that it communicates wirelessly with the stimulation modules, but the design of the wireless feature is identical to that of the Compex Wireless USA (K143551).
