Intended Use
The Indiba Diathermia Radiofrequency Devices are intended to provide topical heating for the purpose of elevating tissue temperature for treatment of selected medical conditions such as: relief of pain, muscle spasms, increase in local circulation. The massage device provided is intended to provide a temporary reduction in the appearance of cellulite.
Device Description
The Indiba Diathermia Radiofrequency Device is a therapeutic device for deep, non-invasive diathermy. The device consists of a console which generates a radiofrequency current which is delivered to the patient, in monopolar form, through two different types of electrodes: stainless steel conductive resistive electrodes, and thin-layer insulated capacitive electrodes. The electrodes are inserted into a handle/handpiece, one handle for each kind of electrode, and the handle is connected to the console by means of a 2-metre cable. In resistive mode the system delivers a high-frequency current of 448 kHz directly to the patient's skin surface. In capacitive mode, the electrode coating creates a layer between the electrode and the human tissue, forming a capacitor that allows a high-frequency current to pass. The high frequency current ranges between 400 kHz and 449 kHz and is automatically tuned by the equipment according to the patient's impedance. Current returns through the neutral return electrode. The Indiba Diathermia Radiofrequency Device is provided with an electroconductive media which is applied to the patients' skin prior to each treatment session. The RF energy generates a heating profile that produces a moderate temperature rise in the subcutaneous tissue. The temperature on the skin is measured using a separate IR (Infra-red) thermometer and there is an integrated massage device that can be used to massage the skin during cellulite treatment.

No
The description focuses on radiofrequency technology and temperature control based on impedance, with no mention of AI or ML algorithms for analysis, prediction, or adaptation beyond basic feedback loops.

Yes.
The "Device Description" section states, "The Indiba Diathermia Radiofrequency Device is a therapeutic device for deep, non-invasive diathermy." Additionally, the "Intended Use" section lists several medical conditions it's intended to treat, such as relief of pain and muscle spasms, which are therapeutic applications.

No

The device is described as a therapeutic device intended for treatment, not diagnosis. Its purpose is to elevate tissue temperature for conditions like pain relief, muscle spasms, and increased circulation, as well as for cellulite reduction.

No

The device description clearly outlines hardware components including a console, electrodes, handles, cables, and an IR thermometer, indicating it is not a software-only device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device is for "topical heating for the purpose of elevating tissue temperature for treatment of selected medical conditions" and "temporary reduction in the appearance of cellulite." These are therapeutic and aesthetic purposes, not diagnostic.
  • Device Description: The description details how the device generates radiofrequency current to heat tissue. This is a physical intervention, not a test performed on biological samples to diagnose a condition.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Elements: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting biomarkers, or providing information for diagnosis.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on the device's ability to raise tissue temperature and its effects on pain, muscle spasms, circulation, and cellulite. These are all related to the therapeutic and aesthetic functions, not diagnostic accuracy.

In vitro diagnostics are devices used to examine specimens from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, prevention, or treatment of a disease or condition. This device does not fit that definition.

Device Description

The Indiba Diathermia Radiofrequency Device is a therapeutic device for deep, non-invasive diathermy. The device consists of a console which generates a radiofrequency current which is delivered to the patient, in monopolar form, through two different types of electrodes: stainless steel conductive resistive electrodes, and thin-layer insulated capacitive electrodes. The electrodes are inserted into a handle/handpiece, one handle for each kind of electrode, and the handle is connected to the console by means of a 2-metre cable.

In resistive mode the system delivers a high-frequency current of 448 kHz directly to the patient's skin surface. In capacitive mode, the electrode coating creates a layer between the electrode and the human tissue, forming a capacitor that allows a high-frequency current to pass. The high frequency current ranges between 400 kHz and 449 kHz and is automatically tuned by the equipment according to the patient's impedance. Current returns through the neutral return electrode. The Indiba Diathermia Radiofrequency Device is provided with an electroconductive media which is applied to the patients' skin prior to each treatment session.

The RF energy generates a heating profile that produces a moderate temperature rise in the subcutaneous tissue.

The temperature on the skin is measured using a separate IR (Infra-red) thermometer and there is an integrated massage device that can be used to massage the skin during cellulite treatment.

Non-Clinical Testing

The Indiba Diathermia Radiofrequency Devices have been tested and are in compliance with IEC/EN 60601-1:2005+ Corr. 2006, Medical electrical equipment. Part 1: General requirements for basic safety and essential performance, IEC/EN60601-1-2:2007+AC:2010 Medical electrical equipment. Part 1: General requirements for safety - Collateral standard: Electromagnetic Compatibility -Requirements and tests, and applicable sections of IEC 60601-2-2: 2009 Medical electrical equipment - Part 2-2: Particular requirements for the basic safety and essential performance of high frequency surgical equipment and high frequency surgical accessories. In addition to the electrical safety testing performed, software verification and validation was conducted to IEC 62304: 2006 - Medical device software - Software Life-Cycle Processes, and FDA guidance on software validation. The results of this testing conclude the software has met these requirements.

Patient contacting materials have been evaluated according to the requirements of ISO10993-1:2009 Biological evaluation of medical devices -- Part 1: Evaluation and testing, and confirmed to be biocompatible for their intended use.

Design verification and validation was also performed on the Indiba Diathermia Radiofrequency Devices in compliance with internal design control procedures.

The electrical output characteristics of the Indiba Diathermia Radiofrequency Devices have been tested to demonstrate the devices meet the stated performance characteristics. The Output Characteristic testing measured output frequency, output voltage and output power at 100% (3 resistance loads). The results for each tested output characteristic for all the Indiba Diathermia Radiofrequency Devices passed the acceptance criteria. The testing concluded that each output characteristic for each device in the range was within the stated performance characteristics specification.

literature to support the claim that the Indiba Diathermia Radiofrequency Devices are safe and effective was conducted. For the purpose of the evaluation of the literature, publications pertaining to RF applications under the indications for: relief of pain, relief of muscle spasms, increase in local circulation and temporary reduction in the appearance of cellulite, were sought. The independent evaluation concluded that there was supportive evidence that the Indiba family of devices, delivering RF energy in resistive and capacitive modes, can achieve a significantly beneficial effect on ache/pain, local circulation, cellulite and the relief of muscle spasm.

Indiba Diathermia Radiofrequency Devices have been validated in an in-house study on healthy volunteers to demonstrate that the Indiba Diathermia Radiofrequency Devices increase skin surface temperature to the range 40-45℃.

The study was conducted on nine healthy volunteers, in accordance with Indiba Diathermia Radiofrequency Device standard treatment protocols, with treatment applied to the middle third of the anterior right thigh. Each session consisted of a combination of application of the capacitive electrode followed by the resistive electrode. Prior to each session electroconductive media was applied to the area of skin to be treated. Treatment times were approximately 5-6mins capacitive followed by 7-11mins resistive. Skin surface temperature was recorded using an Infrared Thermometer.

Tolerance of the treatment was good, there were no reports of discomfort and there were no requirements to adjust the treatment powers. Mild transitory erythema (skin reddening) was present in all volunteers in temperatures around 42-43 °C.

The results confirmed that individual volunteers' maximum temperatures on capacitive treatment were 41-44 °C and on capacitive and resistive were 41-43 °C.

The validation confirmed that after a minimum of 5 minutes the Indiba Diathermia Radiofrequency Device can raise, and maintain, the skin temperature to the range of 40-45 °C under capacitive and resistive applications.

Conclusion

The results of external and in-house testing, and the conclusions of the independent review of literature, summarised above, demonstrate that the Indiba Diathermia Radiofrequency Devices are safe and effective and are substantially equivalent to the predicate devices in terms of performance.
