WIEMSPRO is intended to stimulate healthy muscles in order to improve or facilitate muscle performance. The WIEMSPRO is not intended to be used in conjunction with therapy or treatment of medical conditions of any kind. None of WIEMSPRO training programs is designed for injured or ailing muscles and its use on such muscles is contraindicated. WIEMSPRO is a machine with electronic muscle stimulation based on EMS technology. Regarding is specifically designed as an addition to other sports and for training muscles. It must be used for only healthy muscles and clients, not for rehabilitation purposes. WIEMSPRO electrical impulses allow the triggering of action potentials on motoneurones of motor nerves (excitations). These excitations of motoneurones are transmitted to the motor endplate where they generate mechanical muscle fiber responses that correspond to muscle work. Depending on the parameters of the electrical impulses (pulse frequency, duration, duration, duration of rest, total session duration), different types of muscle work can be imposed on the stimulated muscles.

More Information

No
The summary describes a standard electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) device with pre-set programs and does not mention any adaptive, learning, or intelligent features. The testing focuses on electrical safety and performance specifications, not on AI/ML model validation.

No
The device explicitly states it is "not intended to be used in conjunction with therapy or treatment of medical conditions of any kind" and must be used for "healthy muscles and clients, not for rehabilitation purposes."

No

Explanation: The device description and intended use clearly state that WIEMSPRO is for stimulating healthy muscles to improve performance and is "not intended to be used in conjunction with therapy or treatment of medical conditions of any kind" and "not for rehabilitation purposes." Diagnostic devices are used to identify or analyze medical conditions.

No

The device description explicitly states it is an "electro-medical device" and a "machine with electronic muscle stimulation based on EMS technology," indicating it includes hardware components for electrical stimulation. The performance studies also detail testing related to electrical safety and electromagnetic compatibility, which are relevant to hardware.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
  • WIEMSPRO Function: The WIEMSPRO is described as an electro-medical device that uses electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) technology to stimulate healthy muscles externally. It does not involve testing samples from the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is to "stimulate healthy muscles in order to improve or facilitate muscle performance." This is a physical intervention, not a diagnostic test.
  • Device Description: The description reinforces that it's an "electro-medical device intended for stimulating healthy muscles."
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The text does not mention any aspects related to sample collection, analysis of biological samples, or diagnostic purposes.

Therefore, the WIEMSPRO falls under the category of an electro-medical device for muscle stimulation, not an In Vitro Diagnostic.

INTENDED USE:

As established in the Indications for Use Statement:

WIEMSPRO intended to stimulate healthy muscles in order to improve or facilitate muscle performance. The WIEMSpro is not intended to be used in conjunction with therapy or treatment of medical diseases or medical conditions of any kind. None of the WIEMSPRO training programs is designed for injured or ailing muscles and its use on such muscles is contraindicated.

WIEMSPRO is a machine with electronic muscle stimulation based on EMS technology. Regarding its use, the device is specifically designed as an addition to other sports and for training muscles. It must be used for only healthy muscles and clients, not for rehabilitation purposes.

WIEMSPRO electrical impulses allow the triggering of action potentials on motoneurones of motor nerves (excitations). These excitations of motoneurones are transmitted to the muscle fibers via the motor endplate where they generate mechanical muscle fiber responses that correspond to muscle work. Depending on the parameters of the electrical impulses (pulse frequency, duration of contraction, duration of rest, total session duration), different types of muscle work can be imposed on the stimulated muscles.

SUMMARY DISCUSSION OF NON-CLINICAL DATA:

The proposed device has been subject to bench testing to determine conformance to performance specifications and requirements taking account of its intended use as a wireless electro muscle stimulation device for fitness.

Functional laboratory testing performed in foreseeable operating conditions showed correct operation of the device as per its intended use, specifically including:

  • Electrical safety (including particular requirements for the basic safety and essential performance of nerve and muscle stimulator and for medical electrical equipment)
  • Electromagnetic compatibility -
  • FCC Radio Frequency Testing The WiEMSpro device was tested to FCC requirements and found to comply with the requirements of 47 CFR Part 15 §15.107 and §15.109.

The new device is designed and manufactured in accordance with the following standards:

  • IEC 60601-1-2:2007 ●

SUMMARY DISCUSSION OF CLINICAL DATA:

Non-clinical test data are submitted to support this premarket notification and to establish substantial equivalence. No clinical studies are submitted.

CONCLUSIONS:

We believe the intended use, the indications for use and principle of operation of WIEMSpRo are the same as the intended use, indications for use and performance of the predicate devices. We did not use any new technology in this system, so those differences between our new system and its predicate do not affect the safety and effectiveness (SE).

    1. General information of both devices is the same
    1. Intended use and indications/principle of operations of both devices are the same.
    1. There are minimum differences in the technological characteristic/performance data of the proposed device and those of the predicate devices, nevertheless, all of them comply with IEC 60601-1-2, IEC 60601-2-10. Thus the SE is not affected.

Based on the information provided in this premarket notification. Medical Cables, S.L. concludes that WIEMSER is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices with regard to safety and effectiveness.
