Intended Use

The Smart Neck Stimulator is designed to temporarily relieve pain associated with sore and aching muscles in the back of neck due to strain from exercise or normal household work activities.

Device Description

The subject device is intended to use on back of neck and it designed accord with human body cervical physiological curvature of streamlined ring design. The device totally has 3 modes and each mode has 15 output Intensity Levels, so the device can give certain electrical pulse through the electrode pads on the skin to help users to enjoy back neck stimulation. It can also provide a constant temperature of 37°C to 41°C to provide a warming sensation. The subject device can be controlled by a remote control which based on the radiofrequency technology. There are 5 buttons in the remote control, the "M" button for modes selection, "+" or "-" button for intensity selected to increase or decrease, the " "" button intends to turn the heating function on and the " Ho button intends to turn the heating function off. The device can be turned on when both power button on subject device has been turned on and the treatment mode can be selected by the remote control.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text is a 510(k) Summary for the "Smart Neck Stimulator" (K200558). This document primarily focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices based on device description, intended use, and conformance to electrical safety, EMC, and biocompatibility standards through bench testing.

Therefore, the information required to answer questions regarding acceptance criteria, study design (sample size, data provenance, expert ground truth, adjudication, MRMC, standalone performance), training set details, and ground truth establishment is not available in this document. The document details the physical and electrical safety characteristics rather than performance in a clinical, diagnostic, or AI-assisted scenario.

The document's "Test Summary" and "Comparison to Predicate Device and Conclusion" sections refer to safety and performance by lab bench testing and adherence to standards, not clinical or AI-based performance studies.

Here's what can be extracted from the document:

Regarding the specific questions posed:

  1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance:

    • Acceptance Criteria: Implicitly, the acceptance criteria are compliance with the referenced IEC/ISO standards (e.g., electrical safety limits, biocompatibility standards, EMC limits) and demonstration that the device's technical specifications are comparable to or within acceptable limits relative to predicate devices, and would not raise new safety or effectiveness concerns.
    • Reported Device Performance: The document lists the device's specifications (e.g., output voltage, current, pulse duration, frequency, heating temperature, dimensions, weight) and states that bench tests were performed and results "complied with the test requests" and "meet the safety standards." However, it does not provide specific numerical performance results against an acceptance criterion in a tabular format beyond listing the device's characteristics and noting compliance.

    Example (Structured as requested, but data is qualitative in the document):
