By definition, a device is substantially equivalent to a predicate device when the device has the same intended use and the same technological characteristics as the previously cleared predicate device. Or the device may have the same intended use and different technological characteristics if they can be demonstrated that the device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device, and that the new device does not raise different questions regarding its safety and effectiveness as compared to the predicate device.
Pursuant to the testing and comparison to the predicate devices, the Ergo Flex Technologies, LLC Back on Trac (BOTGEN1) and Cervi-Trac devices have the same and/or equivalent intended uses, with similar technical, functional and performance characteristics as the predicate devices listed above.
The Back on Trac (BOTGEN1) and Cervi-Trac Systems perform as intended and do not raise any new safety or efficacy issues.
