The device is described as a system for stimulating healthy muscles to improve or facilitate muscle performance, a "technique of muscle training." It explicitly states it is "not to be used for rehabilitation purposes" and "must not be used in conjunction with therapy or treatment of medical diseases or medical conditions of any kind." This indicates it is for fitness and performance enhancement, not for diagnosing conditions.
No
The device description explicitly states it is a "machine system with electronic muscle stimulation based on EMS technology," indicating it includes hardware components for delivering electrical impulses.
Based on the provided text, the E-Fit Infinity System is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- E-Fit Infinity System's Function: The text clearly describes the E-Fit Infinity System as a machine that uses electronic muscle stimulation (EMS) technology to stimulate healthy muscles externally. It works by applying electrical impulses to the skin to trigger muscle contractions.
- Intended Use: The intended use is for improving or facilitating muscle performance as an addition to sports and for toning muscles. It explicitly states it is not for rehabilitation or the treatment of medical diseases or conditions.
- No Specimen Analysis: There is no mention of the device analyzing any biological specimens from the body.
Therefore, the E-Fit Infinity System falls under the category of a physical therapy or exercise-related device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

4.1. Explanation of the E-Fit Infinity System functions
The E-Fit Infinity System with electrical muscle stimulation is the part of the E-FIT EMS model's family, which is also based on EMS technology. The device is specifically designed as an addition to other sports and for toning muscles. It may only be used for healthy muscles and clients, and not to be used for rehabilitation purposes
4.2. Scientific concepts that form the basis for the E-Fit Infinity System
The E-Fit Infinity System's electrical impulses allow to trigger action potentials on motor neurons (excitations). These excitations are transmitted to the muscle fibres via the motor end plate 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, length of the session), different types of muscle work can be imposed on the stimulated area. The various types of muscle work that the E- Fit Infinity System can impose on the stimulated muscles are able to improve or facilitate muscle performance. The E-Fit Infinity System may therefore be considered a technique of muscle training.

FIRMWARE SAFETY FEATURES:
4.2.1. Self-test
Safety feature to self-check all 12 channel's safe and proper functioning after turning the device on. If a channel's output signal falls out of the safe range, the device further use will be disabled, and the display will show 'SELFTEST FAILED'. The cause might be external factor (humidity, temperature) or any hardware malfunction.
4.2.2. Health protection
Health protection is a safety hardware-based feature to turn off the modulation and stop output signals if power amplifier panel transistors have shortcuts or multiple parallel outputs become active due to hardware or software error. Health protection always protects user from unpleasant electric sensation, even if main processor crashes.
4.2.3. Impulse-shift technology (IST)
IST, developed by E-Fit engineers, is a unique method that shifts impulses in time between different channels. This means that only one muscle group is stimulated at any given moment. Therefore, the full output performance of the device will be equal to the power of only one channel, reducing overall impulse-load on client. The biggest advantage of this solution is that cross-impulses between channel-pairs can be eliminated.
4.2.4. Electrical Conductivity test (no load trip)
No Load Trip test is an electrical conductivity test running continuously on every channel. It checks the electrical resistance of cables and electrodes in the specified range (*400Ω -~20kΩ) on all channels. If a cable is broken or an electrode is not in proper contact, the given channel will turn off and will be marked red on the RUN screen. In this case conductivity (dampening) of electrodes and cable integrity must be checked. This test impulse package runs through fast at the end of each stimulation (signal parameters: bipolar, square impulses, P. Width: 100 µs, Freq.: 1 Hz, current power: 2 mA, length (12 bipolar channels): 0.02 sec).

The various types of muscle work that the E-Fit Infinity system can impose on the stimulated muscles are able to improve or facilitate muscle performance. The E-Fit Infinity system may therefore be considered a technique of muscle training.
The device has one-channel amplifier that controls the 12 channels in time shifted way according to the previously adjusted parameters.
Therefore, unwanted cross-impulses are prevented between the electrodes. This technology ensures that during the operation it is not necessary to switch and/or replace the electrodes on the different body parts. This provides a long life for the electrodes and reduces any possibility of skin irritation. The electrodes are well-placed according to the direct placement standards: into designed cotton, portable uniform with an adjustable rubber band cover. Therefore, misplacement or any harmful risk-taking is physically impossible. (Ex. Neck area, head, genitals etc.)
User-friendly GUI helps the Operator to manage the System. Default programs (built-in by the manufacturer) are included in the Remote Controller. The parameters and the channel intensities can be adjusted separately according to the regulations and the given measuring protocol.
The main cable from the low-powered, and low-voltage output unit needs to be attached to the client's Technical Wear with the corresponding connectors, reversed or mismatched connections are not possible. The Technical Wear ensures that the electrodes will stay in place despite any misconnection of given electrodes due to operator error. The clients must wear underclothes designed by the manufacturer for hygiene and to save the condition of the electrodes. Placement of the electrodes is not allowed directly on the skin! The Page 6 of 12

electrodes are already fitted in the Technical Wear, the operator needs only to slightly reposition, according to the client's muscles. The electrodes can be conductive via tap water which is applied on the surface of the cotton layer during the treatment. The electrodes are washable and disinfectable.
The E-Fit Infinity System has the same intended use and similar technological characteristics and principles as the predicate device. Moreover, verification and validation tests contained in this submission demonstrate that the small differences in E-Fit Infinity System still maintains the same safety and effectiveness as that of the cleared device. In other words, those engineering differences do not affect the intended use or alter the fundamental scientific technology of the device. The operation that includes the delivery of small amount of electrical stimulation to skeletal muscles for conditioning of the muscles.

6.2. Summary of Testing and Comparison to the Predicate Device
E-Fit Infinity System and the predicate device have the same indications for use and very similar technological characteristics and features. E-Fit Infinity System has a wireless remote controller instead of long wired connection and this solution is better as a safe peer communication and avoids ESD phenomena (static discharge). Accidents due to the long cable during the therapy (movements, exercises) are eliminated. The ME device (EF-100) has all the necessary features to be a stand-alone device in itself: user interface, emergency stop button, indicator LEDs, display to show the treatment parameters.
There are a few design differences between the E-Fit Infinity System and the predicate device. However, these differences do not raise new questions for safety or efficacy. Specifically, the only technological difference between the E-Fit Infinity System and its predicate is the shape and material of the stimulator, and the user interface (larger display). These differences do not present any new issues in safety or effectiveness, as the E-Fit Infinity System is substantially similar to the predicate device. Concerns of safe and proper use of electrodes and electrode pad placement have been fully addressed by making the user

conscious of the proper placement of the electrodes and proper operation of the device through details in the User's Instruction Manual. The electrodes and structure of the technical wear is the same as the predicate device's safety and effectiveness has improved via the educated trainer/operator's proper treatment skill. We guarantee that there are no new safety or effectiveness issues concerning this device to be introduced. The new device design method and design changes are recorded and performed according to the quality management system (ISO 13485, FDA 21 CFR 820.30).
The safety of the device, to be used for the proposed indications without medical prescriptions or supervision, is established by the fact that no adverse events have ever been reported since 2010 after over 6 million trainings on devices all over the world manufactured by Fit-Pro Ltd, using a platform equivalent to the predicate device, without a prescription. Over 60,000 trainings - from the 6 million - took place by using E-Fit Infinity System worldwide. The effectiveness of the device for the proposed indications is supported by a number of articles in peer-reviewed publications, which demonstrate that electrical stimulation does improve muscle performance and condition.
The new device is designed and manufactured in accordance with the latest international standards.
6.3. Conclusion of Substantial Equivalence
The E-Fit Infinity System was designed, manufactured and tested in the same factory as the predicate device under the same conditions according to the relevant standards and quality management system. All design, testing and manufacturing processes are recorded and validated according to the required FDA and ISO regulations. The device has the same intent of use and same indications and contraindications. All the accessories {patient cables and electrodes) are similar.
There are no differences which can raise any new issues regarding safety or effectiveness. Therefore, the subject device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device
