Intended Use
The Sectum control unit is a high frequency generator intended to provide topical heating for the purpose of elevating tissue temperature for the treatment of selected medical conditions, such and muscle spasms, increase in local circulation and provide a temporary reduction in the appearance of cellulite. The Sectum control unit utilizes a BODY and PRECISION applicator for delivering high frequency electrotherapy to tissue.
Device Description
The Sectum control unit is a radiofrequency energy generator employed for a variety of aesthetic applications. The control unit output is set and monitored via touchscreen and controlled by foot switch. The control unit can be used with corded bipolar Precision and Body applicators.
More Information

No
The summary describes a radiofrequency energy generator with touchscreen control and foot switch operation. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any other technology typically associated with AI/ML in medical devices. The performance studies focus on electrical safety, software verification, temperature testing, and biocompatibility, not AI/ML performance metrics.

Yes
The device is described as a high-frequency generator intended to provide topical heating for the treatment of selected medical conditions such as muscle spasms, increase in local circulation, and temporary reduction in the appearance of cellulite. These are therapeutic applications.

No

The device is described as a high-frequency generator for therapeutic purposes (topical heating, reducing muscle spasms, increasing local circulation, temporary reduction in cellulite appearance), not for diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "radiofrequency energy generator" and a "control unit" that utilizes "applicators" and is controlled by a "foot switch," all of which are hardware components. The summary also mentions "Electrical Safety and EMC standards" and "Biocompatibility testing," which are typically associated with hardware devices.

Based on the provided information, the Sectum control unit is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is for "topical heating for the purpose of elevating tissue temperature for the treatment of selected medical conditions." This involves applying energy directly to the patient's body.
  • Device Description: The description confirms it's a "radiofrequency energy generator employed for a variety of aesthetic applications." This is an energy-based therapeutic device.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) in vitro (outside the body) to diagnose or monitor a condition.

IVD devices are designed to perform tests on biological samples to provide information about a person's health status. The Sectum control unit is a therapeutic device that applies energy to the body.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

Verification and validation activities were successfully completed and establish that the Sectum control unit performs as intended. Testing included the following:
Compliance with Electrical Safety and EMC standards:

  • IEC 60601-1:2005 (Third Edition) + A1:2012 Medical electrical equipment Part 1: General requirements for basic safety and essential performance
  • IEC 60601-1-2:2014 Medical electrical equipment, Part 1-2: General requirements for basic safety and essential performance - Collateral standard: Electromagnetic compatibility Requirements and tests
  • IEC 60601-2-2:2009 Medical electrical equipment Part 2-2: Particular requirements for the basic safety and essential performance of high frequency surgical equipment and high frequency surgical accessories
  • IEC 60601-1-6:2010 + A1:2013 Medical electrical equipment Part 1-6: General requirements for basic safety and essential performance - Collateral standard: Usability
  • IEC 60601-1-8:2006 + A1:2012 Medical electrical equipment Part 1-8: General requirements for basic safety and essential performance – Collateral Standard: General requirements, tests and guidance for alarm systems in medical electrical equipment and medical electrical systems

Software verification and validation testing was conducted, and documentation provided in accordance with FDA's Guidance or the Content of Premarket Submissions for Software Contained in Medical Devices. This premarket submission did not rely on the assessment of clinical performance data to demonstrate substantial equivalence.

Skin surface temperature testing was completed proving the device is able to maintain tissue temperatures within the therapy specific limits.

Biocompatibility testing was evaluated on patient contacting materials per ISO 10993-1. Cytotoxicity and irritation testing show the components with patient contact are not cytotoxic per ISO 10993-5 or irritating per ISO 10993-10.

Dear Joy Willard:

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.
