This document is a 510(k) summary for the Stella BIO device, which is a neuromuscular electronic stimulator, non-implantable incontinence device, and biofeedback device. The purpose of this summary is to demonstrate that the Stella BIO device is substantially equivalent to a legally marketed predicate device, the Stiwell med4 (K080950).
Key Acceptance Criteria and Device Performance:
The document primarily focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence by comparing the Stella BIO to its predicate device across various "designations" (Powered Muscle Stimulator, Functional Electrical Stimulation, Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation, Incontinence Programs, Biofeedback). Instead of defining explicit acceptance criteria with numerical targets as one might for a diagnostic AI, the acceptance criteria here are implicitly met by demonstrating that any differences between the new device and the predicate device, or adherence to relevant voluntary standards (IEC, ANSI/AAMI, FDA guidance), do not raise new questions of safety or effectiveness.
Therefore, the "acceptance criteria" table below is constructed by extracting the key comparative metrics and the conclusions drawn regarding their impact on safety and effectiveness.
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria (Implicit) and Reported Device Performance:

2. Sample Size and Data Provenance:
This document is a 510(k) summary for a physical medical device (neuromuscular stimulator) and associated software, not a diagnostic AI/ML model that would typically involve a "test set" of clinical data to establish diagnostic performance. Therefore, the concepts of "sample size used for the test set" and "data provenance" (country, retrospective/prospective) in the context of clinical performance are not directly applicable in the way they would be for an AI/ML diagnostic.
The "testing" mentioned in this document refers to:
- Bench Testing / Electrical Safety / EMC Testing: These are engineering and performance verification tests performed in a lab setting to ensure the device meets specified electrical, safety, and electromagnetic compatibility standards (e.g., IEC 60601 series). No specific "sample size" is mentioned for these tests, as they are typically conducted on a limited number of devices to demonstrate design compliance.
- Software Verification and Validation (V&V): This ensures the software functions as intended and mitigates risks. Again, this is a technical V&V process, not a clinical data-driven "test set."
- Usability Testing: This assesses the user interface and safety of use.
- Biocompatibility Testing: For materials in contact with the body.
The document does not describe a clinical study with patients or a "test set" of clinical data adjudicated by experts to prove diagnostic accuracy or clinical effectiveness for the device's indications for use. The substantial equivalence is argued based on technological characteristics and compliance with recognized standards, assuming that the predicate device's clinical performance and safety profile are well-established.
3. Number of Experts used for Ground Truth and Qualifications:
Not applicable, as this is solely based on substantial equivalence to a predicate device and compliance with engineering standards, rather than a clinical study requiring expert adjudication of ground truth for a test set.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set:
Not applicable for the reasons stated above.
5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study was done:
No, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not done. The document does not describe any clinical studies involving human readers or the measurement of human reader improvement with or without AI assistance. This device is not an AI diagnostic tool in the typical sense that would necessitate such a study.
6. If a Standalone (algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:
No standalone clinical performance study was done. The document focuses on the technical performance of the device's stimulation and biofeedback functions, its safety, and its electromagnetic compatibility through bench testing and compliance with recognized standards. This is not a software-only diagnostic AI that would generally have a "standalone performance" measurement against clinical ground truth.
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used:
For the purpose of this 510(k) submission, the "ground truth" is that the predicate device (Stiwell med4) is already legally marketed and presumed safe and effective for its intended uses. The "proof" is the demonstration through engineering tests and comparison of technical specifications that the new device (Stella BIO) is "substantially equivalent" to this established predicate, meaning its differences do not raise new questions of safety or effectiveness. There is no clinical "ground truth" derived from patient outcomes or expert consensus on a test set mentioned.
8. The Sample Size for the Training Set:
Not applicable. This device is not an AI/ML model that undergoes "training" on a dataset. The software within the device is validated against its functional requirements and safety specifications, rather than being "trained" on data.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set was Established:
Not applicable, as there is no training set for an AI/ML model for this device.

Note EMG:
"EMG Specifications"
The new device as well as the predicate device provide similar EMG- triggered EMS programs that enable the new device to bridge muscle stimulation with patient-initiated muscle contractions to achieve the same unchanged indications for use under 21 CFR 890,5850.
"EMG sensitivity", "EMG sampling rate" and "EMG range"
The new device has an improved EMG sensitivity and sample rate compared to the predicate K080950. This can be considered an improvement and difference doesn't impact essential performance, basic safety or substantial equivalence. The difference in EMG range between the new device and predicate K080950 results from the difference in analog-to-digital converters and voltage references used for both devices. As the new device has a higher maximal EMG range, it can be considered an improvement and difference does not impact essential performance, basic safety or substantial equivalence.
"EMG bandwidth"
The difference in EMG bandwidth results in the difference in filtering methods for both devices - digital for the new device and analog for the predicate K080950. The difference doesn't impact essential performance, basic safety or substantial equivalence.
"EMG Signal processing"
Additionally, the new device has a different signal processing algorithm - RMS (Root Mean Square) in comparison to AVR (Average Retched Value) for the predicate K080950. Both methods yield comparable results and are industrial standards. Therefore, difference doesn't impact essential performance, basic safety or substantial equivalence.
"Alternating or Synchronous"
The new device has a Synchronous EMG acquisition triggering. That is an improvement over Alternating EMG acquisition in predicate device K080950, as the EMG samples can be acquired and compared sample-to-sample, which in Alternating sampling is not possible. This can be considered an improvement and difference doesn't impact essential performance, basic safety or substantial equivalence.
Note 3 PMS: "Shape of the waveforms"
Predicate device provide only biphasic rectangular waveforms. The new device provides additional waveforms shapes (triangular, trapezoidal) in addition to rectangular waveforms. Electrical stimulation for triangular, trapezoidal waveforms are safer than rectangular waveforms due to lower maximal phase charge, current density. Additionally, electrical stimulation for all waveforms were tested and are compliant with the requirements in IEC 60601-2-10. The difference in waveforms doesn't impact essential performance, basic safety or substantial equivalence.
Note 4 PMS: "Maximum Output Voltage" and "Maximum Output Current"
Although the "Maximum Output Voltage" and "Maximum Output Current" of the new device are different than in the predicate device, they were all tested and are compliant with IEC 60601-2-10. Therefore the difference doesn't impact essential performance, basic safety or substantial equivalence.

The geometric shape is a triangular design with curved lines and a small circle in the center. The text is in a bold, sans-serif font.
Note 5 PMS: "Maximum Current Density" and "Maximum Power Density"
The "Maximum Current Density" and "Maximum Power Density" of the new device is lower than in the predicate device K080950 and doesn't impact essential performance, basic safety or substantial equivalence. The Maximum Power density for the new device is 0.63 mW/cm2 in the predicate K080950. This is especially related to the electrodes used in both devices which are different. The Maximum Power density for the new device is less than 0.25 Watts per square centimeter of electrode conductive surface area to reduce the risk of thermal burns and The Maximum Current Density for all waveforms of the new device is compliant with FDA Guidance Document for Powered Muscle Stimulator 510(k)s, thus the difference doesn't impact essential performance, basic safety or substantial equivalence.
Note 6 PMS: "On/Off time"
Although "on and off time" are slightly different, the new device is compliant with FDA Guidance Document for Powered Muscle Stimulator 510(k)s and the difference will not raise any safety or effectiveness issue. The subject device and the predicate device have the technical specifications that are within a range of other FDA cleared powered muscle stimulators.

Substantial Equivalence discussion and Differences Analysis - Output Specifications for Incontinence Programs - Comparison with Predicate Device
Note 1 KPI: "Treatment Time range"
The incontinence programs of the new device have a pre-set time range between 15 - 20 min (program dependent), similar to predicate. The new device has one additional "Custom Program" where time range can be adjusted by a medical professional in the range of 1-60 min. Although the "Treatment Time range" in the new device is slightly different from the time range in predicate device K080950 it complies with IEC 60601-1 and IEC 60601-2-10 requirements and doesn't impact essential performance, basic safety or substantial equivalence.

To the right of the shape is the text "EGZO Tech", with "EGZO" in a bold, sans-serif font and "Tech" in a lighter, sans-serif font. The logo is simple and modern, with a clean design.
Note EMG:
"EMG Specifications"
The new device as well as the predicate device provide similar EMG- triggered EMS programs that enable the new device to bridge muscle stimulation with patient-initiated muscle contractions to achieve the same unchanged indications for use under 21 CFR 890,5850.
"EMG sensitivity", "EMG sampling rate" and "EMG range"
The new device has an improved EMG sensitivity and sample rate compared to the predicate K080950. This can be considered an improvement and difference doesn't impact essential performance, basic safety or substantial equivalence. The difference in EMG range between the new device and predicate K080950 results from the difference in analog-to-digital converters and voltage references used for both devices. As the new device has a higher maximal EMG range, it can be considered an improvement and difference doesn't impact essential performance, basic safety or substantial equivalence.
"EMG bandwidth"
The difference in EMG bandwidth results in the difference in filtering methods for both devices - digital for the new device and analog for the predicate K080950. The difference doesn't impact essential performance, basic safety or substantial equivalence.
"EMG Signal processing"
Additionally, the new device has a different signal processing algorithm - RMS (Root Mean Square) in comparison to AVR (Average Retched Value) for the predicate K080950. Both methods yield comparable results and are industrial standards. Therefore, difference doesn't impact essential performance, basic safety or substantial equivalence.
"Alternating or Synchronous"
The new device has a Synchronous EMG acquisition triggering. That is an improvement over Alternating EMG acquisition in predicate device K080950, as the EMG samples can be acquired and compared sample-to-sample, which in Alternating sampling is not possible. This can be considered an improvement and difference does not impact essential performance, basic safety or substantial equivalence.
Note 2 KPI: "Maximum Output Voltage", "Maximum Output Current".
Although the "Maximum Output Voltage" and "Maximum Output Current" at 2kΩ of the new device are different than in the predicate device, they are all compliant and tested with IEC 60601-2-10. Therefore the difference doesn't impact essential performance, basic safety or substantial equivalence.
Note 3 KPI: "Pulse width modulation" and "Frequency"
The new device has slightly different pulse widths (150 us - 250 µs in the new device) vs 300 µs - 500 us in the predicate device K080950. Although the "pulse width" is different from the predicate device, it is within the range of the standard EMS pulse modulation that is compliant with FDA Guidance Document for Powered Muscle Stimulator 510(k)s, so the differences of function specification will not raise any safety or effectiveness issue.
{24}------------------------------------------------
Image /page/24/Picture/0 description: The image shows the logo for EGZO Tech. The logo consists of a stylized, abstract symbol on the left, resembling three curved shapes converging at a central point. To the right of the symbol is the text "EGZO Tech" in a bold, sans-serif font. The word "EGZO" is in a larger font size than "Tech".
The frequency for the new device is 0 - 50 Hz and is similar to the predicate K0809050 (5-60 Hz). This difference does not raise new types of safety or effectiveness questions because all devices are using standard EMS stimulation frequencies that are compliant with FDA Guidance Document for Powered Muscle Stimulator 510(k)s. Maximum pulse frequency of the new device was tested and is compliant with IEC 60601-2-10.
Note 4 KPI: "Maximum Phase charge", "Maximum Current Density", "Maximum Power Density" The "Maximum phase charge of the new device is 25 µC for the new device and is different from the predicate K080950 (50 µC). This difference does not raise new types of safety or effectiveness questions because all devices are compliant with FDA Guidance Document for Powered Muscle Stimulator 510(k)s and were tested and are compliant with IEC 60601-2-10.
The "Maximum Current Density" and "Maximum Power Density" are different than in the predicate device. This is especially related to the electrodes used in the predicate device which are different. The maximum power density for the smallest surface electrode used in the new device is lower than in the predicate (0.40 mW/cm2 in the new device vs. 105 mW/cm2 in the predicate K080950). Moreover, the Maximum Power Density for the smallest electrode used in the device is less than 0.25 Watts per square centimeter of electrode conductive surface area to reduce the risk of thermal burns. The Maximum Current Density and Maximum Power Density of the new device is compliant with FDA Guidance Document for Powered Muscle Stimulator 510(k)s, thus the difference doesn't impact essential performance, basic safety or substantial equivalence.
Note 5 KPI: "On/Off time"
Although the "on/off" time is slightly different for both devices it is compliant with FDA Guidance Document for Powered Muscle Stimulator 510(k)s and the difference between on and off time ranges doesn't impact essential performance, basic safety or substantial equivalence.
