The device description and performance studies focus on standard electrical stimulation technology and safety testing. There is no mention of AI/ML algorithms, training data, or performance metrics typically associated with AI/ML devices.
Yes
The intended use explicitly states "To be used to stimulate healthy muscles in order to improve and facilitate muscle performance," which describes a therapeutic action (improving performance). Additionally, the device type (muscle stimulator) and predicates are typically considered therapeutic.
No.
The device description and intended use clearly state that it is for stimulating healthy muscles to improve and facilitate muscle performance, not for diagnosis.
No
The device description explicitly details hardware components including an electronic stimulator module, a belt, electrode pads, and batteries. The performance studies also include testing related to hardware (biocompatibility, EMC, electrical safety).
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to "stimulate healthy muscles in order to improve and facilitate muscle performance." This is a therapeutic or performance-enhancing use, not a diagnostic one.
- Device Description: The device is an EMS (Electrical Muscle Stimulation) belt that applies electrical current to the skin to stimulate muscles. This is a physical intervention, not a test performed on biological samples.
- Lack of Diagnostic Elements: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) or providing information about a person's health status or disease.
- Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on biocompatibility, electrical safety, software validation, and electrode performance – all related to the physical function and safety of the device, not its ability to diagnose.
IVD devices are specifically designed to be used in vitro (outside the body) to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device operates in vivo (on the body) and is intended for muscle stimulation.

Device Description
MC0485 EMS Belt is a one channel battery operated muscle stimulation system specifically designed to exercise the abdominal muscles. It is comprised of an electronic stimulator module for signal generation, a belt for fixation, and four electrode pads for signal connection to skin. The built-in electrode pads are located on the inner surface of the belt.
Power is derived from 3 batteries located in a compartment protected by a removable battery cover for the EMS Belt. There is no current passed from side to side. The user cannot access the wiring or connectors within the belt.
The stimulator sends gentle electrical current to targeted muscle area through the electrode pads placed on the skin. The parameters of the EMS Belt are controlled by the buttons on the controller and are displayed by the LCD on the controller. Its intensity level can be adjustable by user.

System validation testing presented in this 510(k) demonstrated that all software requirement specifications are met and all software hazards have been mitigated to acceptable risk levels.
-
Other Performance Verification:
- The Electrode Pad Performance Test Report has been conducted to verify the current dispersion and shelf-life of the electrodes used by the subject device in the expiration date according to the requirements of the FDA Guidance -Shelf Life of Medical Device and ASTM F1980-07 Standard.
- The waveform and output test report has also been conducted to verify the output specifications of the subject device according to the FDA Guidance for Powered Muscle Stimulator 510(k)s.
Summary: Based on the above performance as documented in this application. EMS Belt was found to have a safety and effectiveness profile that is similar to the predicate device.

Comparison in details:
NOTE 1: The "Intended Use" of the subject device is the same as the predicate device K171803 SEM44's EMS mode and K133929's PMS (mode 1~8), as well as is within the predicate device K143207. Meanwhile, the "Product Code" of the subject device is within the predicate devices, and these kinds of powered muscle stimulator are classified as NGX in accordance with FDA regulation. This define does not affect the intended use or normal use of the subject device.
NOTE 2: Although the "Power Supply", "Number of Output Modes", "Number of Output Channels", and "Timer Range" of the subject device are a little different from the predicate devices, these differences do not raise new questions of safety and effectiveness.
NOTE 3: Although the "Weight" and "Dimensions" of the subject device are different from the predicate devices, these differences are insignificant in the terms of safety or effectiveness.
NOTE 4: The "Housing Materials and Construction" (materials of skin-contacting components) of the enclosure of the subject device is consistent completely with the predicate devices, and the material of the electrodes is TPE (Thermo-Plastic Elastomers), which is consistent with the electrodes used by K143430. Although their supplier is not sure, they all comply with the requirements of ISO 10993-1 and have been tested and passed the cytotoxicity test, skin sensitization test, and irritation test. So these differences will not raise any safety or effectiveness issue.
NOTE 5: Although the "Maximum Output Voltage", "Maximum Output Current", "Pulse Duration", "Frequency", "Maximum Phase Charge", "Maximum Current Density", and "Maximum Power Density" of the subject device are a little different from the predicate devices, they all comply with the requirements of IEC 60601-1 and IEC 60601-2-10 standard, as well as the Guidance for Powered Muscle Stimulator for Muscle Conditioning. So these differences will not raise any safety or effectiveness issue.
CONCLUSION: The subject device is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.
VII.Performance Data
The following performance data were provided in support of the substantial equivalence determination.
1) Biocompatibility Testing
The biocompatibility evaluation for the body-contacting components of the EMS Belt was conducted in accordance with the "Use of International Standard ISO 10993-1, 'Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices –Part 1: Evaluation and Testing Within a Risk Management Process, Document Issued on June 16, 2016", as recognized by FDA.
