No
The summary describes a TENS/EMS device with no mention of AI, ML, or related concepts.

Yes
The device provides Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) for pain relief and Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS) to improve muscle performance, both of which are therapeutic applications.

No
The device is used for pain relief and muscle stimulation, which are therapeutic functions, not diagnostic. It does not identify or detect a disease or condition.

No

The intended use describes a device that provides transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) and electrical muscle stimulation (EMS). These therapies inherently require hardware components (electrodes, stimulator unit) to deliver electrical impulses to the body. The summary does not mention any software-only functionality that would constitute the entire device.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
  • Intrelief's Function: Intrelief is described as a transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) and electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) device. These are external devices that apply electrical currents to the body for therapeutic purposes (pain relief and muscle stimulation).
  • No Specimen Analysis: The description does not mention any analysis of biological specimens. The device interacts directly with the body's surface.

Therefore, Intrelief falls under the category of a therapeutic medical device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic.

Dear Jeffery Wu:

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. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's
