No
The document explicitly states "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML: Not Found" and the device description and performance studies do not mention any AI/ML components or algorithms.

No.
The device is indicated for "over-the-counter cosmetic use" for "facial and neck stimulation," which does not align with the definition of a therapeutic device designed to treat or prevent a disease or condition. Its purpose is cosmetic.

No.
The device is indicated for facial and neck stimulation for over-the-counter cosmetic use, and the description states it stimulates "superficially through application of transcutaneous electrical currents," which are stimulative, not diagnostic.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "hand-held, battery-powered device" and mentions hardware components like a Lithium-Ion battery and charger. The performance studies also include electrical safety testing and biocompatibility evaluation, which are relevant to hardware.

Based on the provided information, the ZIIP+ Device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is "facial and neck stimulation" for "over-the-counter cosmetic use." This describes a device applied externally to the body for cosmetic purposes, not a test performed on samples taken from the body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to diagnose a condition.
  • Device Description: The description details a hand-held device that applies electrical currents to the skin. This aligns with an external stimulation device, not an IVD.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The document does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing biological samples.
    • Detecting or measuring substances in biological samples.
    • Providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening of diseases or conditions.

The testing performed (electrical safety, software, biocompatibility) is consistent with a device applied externally to the body, not an IVD.

Therefore, the ZIIP+ Device is a cosmetic electrical stimulation device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic.

Summary of Performance Studies

Comprehensive performance testing was performed to support the substantial equivalence determination for the ZIIP+ Device, including the following:

  • . Electrical Safety Testing, including EMC. Specifically, the ZIIP+ Device was tested and found to be in compliance with:
    • o IEC 60601- 1 -2 (Medical electrical equipment Part 1-2: General requirements for basic safety and essential performance – Collateral Standard: Electromagnetic disturbances – requirements and tests) for radiated and power line conducted emissions
    • IEC 60601-1 (Medical electrical equipment: Part 1: General requirements for basic o safety and essential performance) for Electrical Safety
    • o IEC 60601-1-11 (Medical Electrical Equipment: Part 1-11: Requirements for medical electrical systems used in the home healthcare environment) for home healthcare devices
  • Software Verification and Validation Testing
    • The results of software verification and validation confirmed that the ZIIP+ Device meets and complies with the applicable software requirements specifications.
  • Biocompatibility Evaluation
    • The skin-contacting materials for ZIIP+ are identical to the skin-contacting materials for the predicate ZIIP device, which was evaluated and determined to be biocompatible; therefore, the ZIIP+ Device is biocompatible and substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
      In summary, the safety and performance testing results for EMC, Electrical Safety, Wireless Coexistence, and Verification & Validation concluded that the ZIIP+ Device complies with the applicable standards and meets bench testing performance requirements.

Dear Heather Tanner:

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.
