Intended Use
Air Pressure Therapy System VU-IPC06 is intended for home to temporarily relieve minor muscle aches and/or pains, and to temporarily increase circulation to the treated areas.
Device Description
Air Pressure Therapy System has a pump. The pump is connected to the dedicated cuff via the hose series, one cuff has 8 compression chambers. The pump compresses and inflates air into the chambers continuously to produce compression from the body tail end to body center and release the air after compression as one cycle process. Cycle time and pressure can be adjusted by purpose to avoid any discomfort. Air Pressure Therapy System intermittent pneumatic compression could be used in family for improving blood circulation in treated areas, in exercise rehabilitation field for muscle relaxation before exercise and muscle rehabilitation after exercise to relieve muscle soreness.
More Information

No
The description focuses on mechanical compression and pressure adjustment, with no mention of AI/ML terms or functionalities.

Yes
The device is intended to temporarily relieve minor muscle aches and/or pains and temporarily increase circulation, which are therapeutic claims.

No
The intended use explicitly states the device is for temporary relief of minor muscle aches/pains and to temporarily increase circulation, not for diagnosing any condition.

No

The device description explicitly states it has a "pump" and "cuff via the hose series," which are hardware components. The description focuses on the mechanical action of air compression and inflation, not solely on software functionality.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for "temporarily relieve minor muscle aches and/or pains, and to temporarily increase circulation to the treated areas." This describes a therapeutic or physical therapy application, not a diagnostic test performed on samples taken from the body (like blood, urine, or tissue).
  • Device Description: The device description details a system that applies external air pressure to the body via cuffs. This is a physical intervention, not a method for analyzing biological samples.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, detecting biomarkers, or providing diagnostic information about a disease or condition.

IVD devices are specifically designed to perform tests on samples taken from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment of diseases or conditions. This device does not fit that description.

Dear Sam Lin:

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. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies.combination product submissions. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls.
