Device Description

The PlasmaWave is a lightweight, portable, rechargeable battery powered prescriptive device. It is intended to be used in the home or clinical setting by or under the direction of a medical professional to help stimulate blood flow as an aid in the prevention of deep vein thrombosis (DVT).
The PlasmaWave utilizes pneumatically controlled, single-chamber wraps actuated by an electronically controlled unit of the air pump and solenoid valve via the tubing. All pump, battery and control components are protectively housed in a plastic case that is connected to a single use inflatable wrap via tubing. A Power On/Off button, a Mode (M) button, a Leg button, three LED indicators (Working, Charging, and Warming), and a LCD display provide user interface. There are also two tubing ports for connecting the tubing and a charging port for connecting the battery charger/AC adapter at the bottom of the control unit.

7. Substantial Equivalence

As shown in the above table of comparison, the subject device in this submission has the identical or similar performance and parameter to the predicate device. And the differences between the subject device and the predicate device do not raise any new issues of safety or effectiveness.

The subject device is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices listed in function and operating principals to achieve identical results. The predicate device utilizes microprocessor controlled pumps to deliver pressurized air to bladders that are attached to the patient's lower extremities, using a cycle time of approximately 60 seconds. Each cycle consists of inflation of a bladder, followed by a rest period during which the bladder deflates and the lower extremity relaxes without any compression.

Identical to the predicate device, the subject device has multiple and visual alarms built into the system, including low pressure alarms and low battery alarm. In addition, the inflatable wrap (cuff) is comprised of a single air bladder encased in a covering of soft, non-woven medical fabric or equivalent medical material for increased patient comfort and biocompatibility compliance. The microprocessor and pump units are powered by an internal rechargeable battery, and can be connected to the main AC power adapter/charger while in use, allowing uninterrupted prolonged service.

The skin contact components and materials of the subject device are identical to those of the predicate device in formulation, suppliers, processing, and geometry and no other chemicals have been added (e.g., plasticizers, fillers, color additives, cleaning agents, mold release agents, etc.). Therefore, there is no issue or concern of biocompatibility.

The subject device is designed for the same intended use as the predicated device. The comparison of the specifications demonstrates the functional equivalence of the products, concluding that the subject device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.

8. Non-Clinical Tests Performed

Non-clinical tests were performed on the subject device in order to validate the design and to assure conformance with the following voluntary design standards in connection with the medical device electrical safety, and electromagnetic compatibility.

  • (a) ANSI AAMI ES60601-1 "Medical Electrical Equipment Part 1: General requirements for basic safety and essential performance (IEC 60601-1)".
  • (b) IEC 60601-1-2 "Medical Electrical Equipment Part 1-2: General Requirements for Basic Safety and

{8}------------------------------------------------

Essential Performance - Collateral standard: Electromagnetic Compatibility - Requirements and Tests".

In addition to the compliance of voluntary standards, bench tests have been performed on the physical requirements, electrical requirement, and performance requirement; the verification of software used in the subject device has been carried out according to the FDA Guidance for the Content of Premarket Submissions for Software Contained in Medical Devices.

9. Conclusion

The tests and comparison performed demonstrate the subject device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device. Therefore, the subject device is as safe and effective as the predicate device that has been legally marketed in the United States.
