The summary describes a traditional shortwave diathermy device with standard features like continuous/pulsed modes, an LCD screen, and safety features. There is no mention of AI, ML, or any related concepts in the intended use, device description, or performance studies.
Yes
The device is described as providing "deep heating therapeutic effects to body tissues" and is used to treat "selected medical conditions" such as relieving pain, reducing muscle spasm, increasing range of motion, and increasing blood flow. These are all therapeutic actions.
No
Explanation: The device is a shortwave diathermy machine used for therapeutic purposes such as pain relief, reducing muscle spasm, increasing range of motion, and increasing blood flow. It is not described as diagnosing medical conditions.
No
The device description clearly outlines hardware components such as an inductive drum, soft-rubber electrodes, an LCD Touch Screen, a Patient Safety Pull-Cord, and a sturdy cart with wheels, indicating it is not a software-only device.
Based on the provided information, the ProMedTek Model C1400 Shortwave Diathermy device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes a therapeutic device that delivers energy to the body for deep heating effects to treat medical conditions like pain, muscle spasm, and limited range of motion. This is a therapeutic application, not a diagnostic one.
- Device Description: The description details a device that applies energy to the body using electrodes or a drum applicator. This aligns with a physical therapy or 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 ProMedTek Model C1400 is a therapeutic device used for applying heat to the body, not a device used to diagnose conditions by examining samples outside the body.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The ProMedTek Model C1400 Shortwave Diathermy device delivers energy in the radio band of 27.12 MHz to provide deep heating therapeutic effects to body tissues. When shortwave diathermy is delivered to the body at intensities capable of generating a deep tissue temperature increase, it can be used to treat selected medical conditions such as:
- Relieving pain
- Reducing muscle spasm
- Increasing range of motion of contracted joints using heat and stretch techniques
- Increasing blood flow to tissues in the treatment area.

Device Description
The ProMedTek C1400 shortwave diathermy device operates at 27.12 MHz. It provides traditional shortwave diathermy using an inductive drum or soft-rubber electrodes. The unit offers both continuous or pulsed modes of operation with a variety of frequencies and pulse widths to choose from. An easy-to-use LCD Touch Screen guides the user through setup. A Patient Safety Pull-Cord allows the patient to stop all output. The base of the ProMedTek C1400 is a sturdy cart with large locking wheels that allows the ProMedTek C1400 to be moved easily around the clinic and supports the arm and drum applicator during treatment.

§ 890.5290 Shortwave diathermy.
(a)
Shortwave diathermy for use in applying therapeutic deep heat for selected medical conditions —(1)Identification. A shortwave diathermy for use in applying therapeutic deep heat for selected medical conditions is a device that applies to specific areas of the body electromagnetic energy in the radiofrequency (RF) bands of 13.56 megahertz (MHz) or 27.12 MHz and that is intended to generate deep heat within body tissues for the treatment of selected medical conditions such as relief of pain, muscle spasms, and joint contractures, but not for the treatment of malignancies.(2)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).(b)
Nonthermal shortwave therapy —(1)Identification. A nonthermal shortwave therapy is a prescription device that applies to the body pulsed electromagnetic energy in the RF bands of 13.56 MHz or 27.12 MHz and that is intended for adjunctive use in the palliative treatment of postoperative pain and edema of soft tissue by means other than the generation of deep heat within body tissues as described in paragraph (a) of this section.(2)
Classification: Class II (special controls). The device is classified as class II. The special controls for this device are:(i) Components of the device that come into human contact must be demonstrated to be biocompatible.
(ii) Appropriate analysis/testing must demonstrate that the device is electrically safe and electromagnetically compatible in its intended use environment.
(iii) Non-clinical performance testing must demonstrate that the device performs as intended under anticipated conditions of use. Non-clinical performance testing must characterize the output waveform of the device and demonstrate that the device meets appropriate output performance specifications. The output characteristics and the methods used to determine these characteristics, including the following, must be determined:
(A) Peak output power;
(B) Pulse width;
(C) Pulse frequency;
(D) Duty cycle;
(E) Characteristics of other types of modulation that may be used;
(F) Average measured output powered into the RF antenna/applicator;
(G) Specific absorption rates in saline gel test load or other appropriate model;
(H) Characterization of the electrical and magnetic fields in saline gel test load or other appropriate model for each RF antenna and prescribed RF antenna orientation/position; and
