Intended Use

The proposed device is intended for use as the disposable, conductive interface between the patient's skin and the electrical stimulator to apply electrical stimulation current, and is intended to be used with legally marketed electrical stimulators, i.e. TENS (Transutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) and EMS (Electrical Muscular Stimulation). It's for Over-the-Counter (OTC) use.

Device Description

The proposed Electrodes with snap / Electrodes with pigtail are non-sterile laminated, flexible structures composed of materials commonly used in this application: The electrodes are designed for single-patient application use. Because of the adhesive nature of the biocompatible hydro gel, no securing materials are required to secure the product to the patient's skin. The proposed product mainly consists of electrode pad and snap or pigtail. The electrode pad is available in Round Shape Electrode, Rectangular Shape Electrode, Palm shape Electrode, Elliptical Shape Electrode, and Calabash Shape Electrode.

AI/ML Overview

The provided document is a 510(k) summary for medical electrodes, not an AI/ML device. Therefore, it does not contain the information requested in points 2-9 regarding AI/ML model performance, training, and validation.

However, I can extract the acceptance criteria and reported device performance for the physical electrodes as presented in the "Test Summary" and "Comparison to predicate device" sections.

Study Details (for physical device, not AI/ML):

The document describes a 510(k) submission, which demonstrates "substantial equivalence" to a legally marketed predicate device, rather than a clinical study proving new performance. The "Test Summary" indicates that safety and performance were evaluated by "lab bench testing."

  • Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance: Not specified in terms of sample size for the tests, but the data would be from lab bench testing (likely within China, given the company's location). This is not retrospective or prospective in the sense of a clinical trial; it's product testing.
  • Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts: Not applicable. These are physical/electrical tests with objective measurements, not judgment-based assessments requiring experts for ground truth.
  • Adjudication method for the test set: Not applicable.
  • If a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done: No, this is for a physical medical device (electrodes), not an AI/ML diagnostic or assistive tool.
  • If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done: Not applicable.
  • The type of ground truth used: Physical measurements and adherence to specified performance standards (e.g., ISO 10993, IEC 60601-1, specific impedance/strength values).
  • The sample size for the training set: Not applicable, as this is not an AI/ML device.
  • How the ground truth for the training set was established: Not applicable, as this is not an AI/ML device.

Dear Cecilia Ceng:

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.
