Everyway OTC EMS may therefore be considered a technique of muscle training.
Device Description
The Everyway OTC EMS, model EV-805 is a dual channel powered muscle stimulator intended to stimulate healthy muscles in order to improve or facilitate muscle performance. The various types of muscle work that Everyway OTC EMS can impose on the stimulated muscles are able to improve or facilitate muscle performance by applying an electrical current to electrodes, which are attached on the user's skin. The device measures 101mm(H)x 68mm(W)x21.5mm(D). Its outer housing is made of injection molded thermoplastic resin with the output contact probes consist of chrome-plated spheres. The device is powered by a 9-Volt battery to generate output pulses that is discharged through the two adhesive electrode placed on the patient's skin for treatment and muscle training. The device is operated in such a way that turn on the intensity control knob and adjust the intended intensity or turn off the device during operation through the same control knob. While device is turned on for operation. User then follow the instruction for use to get appropriate stimulation treatment and/or training on the healthy muscles.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a basic electrical muscle stimulator with manual controls and no mention of adaptive algorithms, data processing, or learning capabilities.

No
The device is described as improving or facilitating muscle performance, which aligns with fitness or training rather than treating a medical condition or disease.

No

The device description and intended use state that the Everyway OTC EMS is a muscle stimulator intended to improve or facilitate muscle performance through training and stimulation, not for diagnosing any condition.

No

The device description explicitly details physical hardware components such as an outer housing, output contact probes, and a battery, indicating it is a physical device, not software-only.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use/Indications for Use: The intended use is to "stimulate healthy muscles in order to improve or facilitate muscle performance." This is a physical therapy/rehabilitation type of use, not a diagnostic one.
  • Device Description: The device is a "dual channel powered muscle stimulator" that applies electrical current to electrodes on the skin. This is consistent with an external physical therapy device, not a device that analyzes biological samples.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Activity: There is no mention of the device analyzing blood, urine, tissue, or any other biological sample to diagnose a condition or provide information about a patient's health status.
  • Over-the-Counter (OTC) Use: While some IVDs can be OTC, the nature of this device's function (muscle stimulation) is not typical of an IVD.
  • Predicate Device: The predicate device (K102926: Gemore Muscle Conditioner/Model GM320PE) is also a muscle stimulator, further supporting that this device falls under the category of physical therapy/rehabilitation devices, not IVDs.

In summary, the Everyway OTC EMS is a muscle stimulator intended for improving muscle performance through electrical stimulation, which is not the function of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

3FI., No. 5, Lane 155, Sec. 3,Beishen Rd., Shenkeng Dist., New Taipei City, Taiwan.

According to the device features, the testing for the following standards were considered required for the device:

  • The International Standard IEC 60601-2-10: 2012; Medical Electrical equipment Part 2-10: Particular requirement for the safety of nerve and muscle stimulators.
  • The International Standard ANSI/AAMI ES 60601-1: 2005 Safety of medical device; Electrical equipment - General safety.
  • The International Standard IEC 60601-1-2: 2014; Medical Electrical equipment Safety -Electromagnetic Compatibility.
  • International Standard ISO 10993-1: 2009; Biological evaluation of medical devices -Part 1: Guidance on selection of tests.
  • International standard ISO 10993-5:2009 Biological evaluation of medical devices -Part 5: Tests for in vitro cytotoxicity
  • International standard EN/ISO 10993-10:2010 Biological evaluation of medical devices Part 10: Tests for irritation and delayed-type hypersensitivity
  • The International Standard IEC 60601-1-11: 2010 collateral standard: requirement for medical electrical equipment and medical electrical system used in the home healthcare environment.

Discussion: The Compliance to applicable voluntary standards as above mentioned indicates that the new device in this submission used the same standards as that of predicate device. Therefore; we consider that the compliance of standards included in our submission is adequate for the determination of substantial equivalence.

10. Summary for the technology comparison.

Basically the Everyway OTC EMS, Model EV-805 has the similar technological characteristics with the predicate device in the product design, material, energy source type, main program mode and the main output waveform...etc. There exists some difference in the detailed output parameters (mainly in the output intensity and electrode sizes). Through the detailed calculation comparison of stimulation output energy for each operation mode(in particular the output current density and power density), we found the output level in each operation mode for our OTC EMS, Model EV-805 and predicate device are very close and within the acceptable range. So we believe the difference in detailed output parameters does not affect the determination of substantial equivalence.

11. Conclusions

The Everyway OTC EMS, Model EV-805 has the same intended use and the similar technological characteristics as the cleared devices. Moreover, verification and validation tests contained in this submission demonstrate that the difference in the submitted models could maintain the same safety and effectiveness as that of cleared device.

In the other words, those engineering difference do not: (1) affect the intended use or (2) alter the fundamental scientific technology of the device.
