Intended Use

DL Adhesive Electrode is intended to transmit electrical current to patient skin for use with transcutaneous electrical stimulation devices. Some common types of the stimulation devices include, but are not limited to TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) and EMS (Electrical Muscular Stimulation). The electrode is for OTC (Over-The -Counter) or Prescription use.

Device Description

DL Adhesive Electrode is used as an accessory to the TENS or EMS device unit, which transmits electrical current to patient skin. The electrical current of Electrode Pad is first transmitted via the snap button or lead wire then transmitted to the conductive gel which is adhered to patient skin.

DL Adhesive Electrode is composed of a top cover, connector snap button or lead wire, conductive carbon film, conductive hydrogel media, and a carrier liner. The carrier liner is made of PET (polyethylene terephthalate) or LDPE(Low Density Polyethylene).

DL Adhesive Electrode is non-sterile and intended for single adult patient multiple application use. The Adhesive Electrode has various shapes and sizes.

To connect with a nerve or muscle stimulator, DL Electrode pads have lead wire type or snap button type. The lead wires have female sockets, while the snap buttons have male connectors. When not in use, the hydrogel face is covered by a PET (polyethylene terephthalate) carrier liner.

The conductive hydrogel is imported from Covidien, USA, we used the same conductive hydrogel as the Self-Adhering TENS/NMES/FES Stimulating Electrode which was 510(k) cleared with number of K100418. Further, our entire Adhesive Electrode together with the conductive hydrogel media has passed the Biocompatibility test, Shelf life test, Impedance test, Adhesive test, and so on.

AI/ML Overview

The provided document is a 510(k) Pre-market Notification for the DL Self-adhesive Electrode (K182111). The document describes the device, its intended use, and importantly, presents non-clinical testing to demonstrate substantial equivalence to predicate devices, thereby ensuring its safety and effectiveness.

Here's an analysis of the acceptance criteria and the study that proves the device meets them:

Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

The acceptance criteria for the DL Adhesive Electrode are primarily based on comparisons with two predicate devices:

  • Primary Predicate: K152648 - Ennova Self-adhesive Electrode
  • Reference Predicate: K100418 - Superior Starburst Reusable Self-Adhering TENS/NMES/FES Stimulating Electrode (specifically for the conductive hydrogel)

The equivalence is demonstrated through various non-clinical (bench) tests and a direct comparison of technological characteristics.

Study Details:

The document explicitly states: "Clinical data was not including in this submission."
Therefore, the device's substantial equivalence is demonstrated solely through non-clinical (bench) testing and comparison of technical characteristics to legally marketed predicate devices.

  1. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance:

    • Sample Size: Not explicitly stated in terms of number of devices tested for each standard. The document only lists the standards applied and that "Bench tests were conducted on DL Adhesive Electrode to verify that the proposed device met all design specifications."
    • Data Provenance: The tests were performed internally or by accredited labs on samples of the DL Adhesive Electrode. The data origin is thus the manufacturer's testing or contract testing facilities, likely within China (where the manufacturer is located). The provenance is prospective with respect to the regulatory submission, as these tests were conducted specifically to support this 510(k). No patient data is involved.
  2. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts:

    • Not Applicable. As no clinical data was used, there was no "ground truth" derived from expert consensus on patient cases. The "ground truth" for the non-clinical tests are the specified performance limits within the referenced national and international standards (e.g., AAMI, ISO, ASTM) and the technical specifications of the predicate devices. These standards are developed by expert committees, but individual experts were not involved in establishing ground truth for a test set in the context of this submission.
  3. Adjudication method for the test set:

    • Not Applicable. Since there was no clinical study involving human readers or subjective interpretations of data, an adjudication method for a test set is not relevant. The assessment relies on objective measurements against pre-defined engineering and performance criteria.
  4. If a multi reader multi case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance:

    • No. An MRMC study was not done. This device is a passive accessory (an electrode); it does not involve AI, human-in-the-loop performance, or image interpretation.
  5. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:

    • No. This device is an electrode, not an algorithm or AI system.
  6. The type of ground truth used:

    • Technical Specifications and Regulatory Standards. The ground truth for this submission is established by adherence to recognized national and international consensus standards (ASTM, ISO, AAMI/ANSI IEC) for medical electrical equipment, biocompatibility, and shelf-life, as well as direct comparison to the established performance characteristics of the legally marketed predicate devices. Key safety criteria, such as maximum power density, also refer to FDA guidance.
  7. The sample size for the training set:

    • Not Applicable. There is no "training set" as this is not a machine learning or AI device.
  8. How the ground truth for the training set was established:

    • Not Applicable. No training set was used.

Dear Doris Dong:

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. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. 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.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

The Conclusions:

Based on successful biocompatibility testing of the whole Adhesive Electrode together with the conductive hydrogel, the electrical performance of the insulated lead wire components and electrode current distribution test results, Adhesive Electrode is safe and effective when used as an interface between a user's skin and an approved nerve and muscle stimulation device. The conclusions drawn from the non-clinical tests demonstrate that the device is as safe, as effective, and performs as well as the legally marketed devices identified in the submission. Thus the subject device is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.
