Torc Body is indicated to be used for:

  • Improvement of abdominal tone, for strengthening of the abdominal muscles, for development of firmer abdomen.
  • Strengthening, toning and firming of buttocks & thighs.
Device Description

Torc Body, the Powered Muscle Stimulator, is intended to improve tone and strengthen the muscles of the abdomen, buttocks, and thighs and to firm the abdomen muscles. The modified Torc Body, as described in this submission, is an upgrade from its previous version; which includes User- Friendly GUI, Internal power supply, and a wheeled console allowing clinicians to navigate and operate the device effortlessly. We intend to market this device to clinicians, as a prescription device. For ease of use and operation for the clinicians, we have 3 modes (suggestive): CLASSIC VECTOR, POWER SEQUENCE, DYNAMIC ROTATION. The modified device generates electrical stimulation to contract the muscles rhythmically to achieve the intended use of strengthening, firming, and toning the muscles of the abdomen, thighs, and buttocks.

AI/ML Overview

The provided FDA 510(k) summary for the Torc Body device (K192039) primarily focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device (K131291) through a comparison of technical characteristics and compliance with voluntary standards. It does not contain information about clinical studies with specific acceptance criteria related to device performance in terms of diagnostic accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, or human perception improvement.

Therefore, many of the requested details about acceptance criteria and clinical study design for device performance, especially those related to AI/algorithm performance and human perception, are not available in this document. The Torc Body is a "Powered Muscle Stimulator," and its performance is evaluated based on its electrical output characteristics and safety, rather than complex diagnostic or image interpretation tasks.

However, based on the provided text, I can infer the acceptance criteria by looking at the "Comparison" column in the tables, where the modified device's characteristics are judged against the predicate device. The general acceptance criterion is substantial equivalence, meaning the modified device performs as designed and its changes do not affect safety and effectiveness compared to the predicate device.

Here's a breakdown of the available information:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

Given that this is a 510(k) for a powered muscle stimulator demonstrating substantial equivalence, the "acceptance criteria" are generally that the modified device's technical specifications and safety aspects are comparable to or within acceptable deviations from the predicate device, or meet relevant safety standards. The "performance" refers to these technical specifications.

Device Description

Torc Body, the Powered Muscle Stimulator, is intended to improve tone and strengthen the muscles of the abdomen, buttocks, and thighs and to firm the abdomen muscles.

The modified Torc Body, as described in this submission, is an upgrade from its previous version; which includes User- Friendly GUI, Internal power supply, and a wheeled console allowing clinicians to navigate and operate the device effortlessly. We intend to market this device to clinicians, as a prescription device. For ease of use and operation for the clinicians, we have 3 modes (suggestive):

  • . CLASSIC VECTOR is only necessary for non-active patients. It creates a twisting motion to warm up, build blood circulation and slowly build a tolerance to muscle contractions.
  • POWER SEQUENCE contracts the muscles, holds it and then relaxes it to increase strength and muscle endurance.
  • DYNAMIC ROTATION - Fast, sequential contractions of the muscles which leads to toning and firming.

The modified device generates electrical stimulation to contract the muscles rhythmically to achieve the intended use of strengthening, firming, and toning the muscles of the abdomen, thighs, and buttocks

While redesigning the Torc Body, complete care and considerable measures have been taken to retain its safety and effectiveness. Torc Body device complies with voluntary standards.

Intended Use

Torc Body is indicated to be used for:

  • . Improvement of abdominal tone, for strengthening of the abdominal muscles, for development of firmer abdomen.
  • Strengthening, toning and firming of buttocks & thighs.

The device safety and efficacy was demonstrated by performance data and comparison of technical characteristics between the modified device and the predicate device.

Substantial Equivalence:

The intended use and indication for use of the modified device are the same as the predicate device (Torc Body , K131291). The modification made to the device include:

  • User Friendly GUI- LCD with wide angle view that significantly facilitates the use of the device.
  • Power Supply- Internal power supply in place of external AC/DC adaptor and rechargeable battery. Wheeled Console- Allows clinicians to navigate and operate the device effortlessly
  • Prescriptive device- we intend to market this device to clinicians, we propose making it a prescription device.

Although there are minor differnces observed between the individual mode parameters of modified Torc Body and the predicate device, no difference found raised any questions regarding safety and effectiveness of the modified device. The primary change from the predicate Torc Body device to Torc Body Version 2.0 is that the new device model provides an internal power supply instead of a rechargeable battery; a user-friendly GUJ; and a wheeled console. We are also proposing to change the type of use from Over the Counter to Prescription.

There are no changes to the indications for use, fundamental scientific principles, performance specifications, or operation of the device.

{17}------------------------------------------------

User-Friendly GUI: The modified Torc Body device has a larger touch screen LCD, which gives a wide-angle view that significantly facilitates the use of the device.

Power Supply: The modified Torc Body device is equipped with an internal medical grade power supply, instead of an AC/DC adaptor and rechargeable battery (predicate device). Testing under voluntary standards has been carried out to make sure the power supply is safe and there are no new risks with this change.

Wheeled Console: The Torc Body has been upgraded to a modern, sleek, wheeled console which allows clinicians to navigate and operate the device effortlessly.

Prescription Device: As a manufacturer, we understand that the modified Torc Body device is based on the same technology and intended for the same use as its predicate device and that the modifications will not affect safety and effectiveness. However, as we intend to market this device to clinicians, we propose making it a prescription device.

The fundamental scientific technology is not changed in the modified device, and the change is solely considered for ease of use to the clinician. The modified device generates the same stimulation to contract the muscles rhythmically to achieve the intended use of strengthening, firming, and toning the muscles of the abdomen, thighs, and buttocks. The clinician can increase or decrease the intensity as per the desired stimulation.

While redesigning the Torc Body, complete care and considerable measures have been taken to retain its safety and effectiveness. The modified Torc Body device complies with voluntary standards, hence the modified device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.

Non-Clinical Testing

The following bench testing was conducted for design and performance elements deemed appropriate to demonstrate equivalence to the previously cleared Torc Body device. The modified device Torc Body met the predetermined acceptance criteria ensuring substantial equivalence to the previously cleared device. No new safety or performance issues were raised during testing.

Non-Clinical Bench Testing:

  • Reliability Testing
  • Compliance Testing (IEC60601-1, IEC60601-1-2
  • Quality management systems - Requirements for regulatory purposes (ISO 13485:2016)
  • Quality System Regulation (21CFR820)
  • Application of usability engineering to medical devices (IEC 62366)
  • Application of risk management to medical devices (ISO 14971)
  • Symbols to be used with medical device labels, labelling and information to be supplied (ISO 15233)
  • Biological evaluation of medical devices (ISO 10993-1)

{18}------------------------------------------------

CONCLUSION

The information and testing presented in this traditional 510(k) demonstrate that the modified Torc Body device performs as designed and is substantially equivalent to the predicate device (K131291). The changes made do not affect the safety and effectiveness of the device.
