No
The device description focuses on the physical components and operational modes (RF therapy, frequency range) and does not mention any AI/ML capabilities. The performance study described is a tissue temperature elevation study, not an AI/ML model validation.
Yes
The device is described as treating "selected medical conditions such as relief of pain, muscle spasms, and increase in local circulation," and provides "therapeutic temperature on the surface of the human skin," indicating a therapeutic purpose.
No
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section states the device is for topical heating to relieve pain, muscle spasms, and increase local circulation, as well as temporarily reduce the appearance of cellulite. These are therapeutic applications, not diagnostic ones.
No
The device description explicitly states it consists of a power console, LCD monitor, and electrodes, which are hardware components.
Based on the provided information, the BACK3 COLOR device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is for topical heating and massage for therapeutic purposes (pain relief, muscle spasms, circulation, cellulite reduction). This involves direct interaction with the patient's body.
- Device Description: The device generates high frequency sinusoidal current and uses electrodes applied to the patient's skin. This is a form of physical therapy or medical device used for treatment, not for analyzing biological samples.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to test or analyze biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) outside of the body. IVDs are designed to provide information about a person's health status based on the analysis of these samples.
In summary, the BACK3 COLOR is a therapeutic medical device that applies energy to the body for treatment, which is distinct from the function of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Device Description
The BACK3 COLOR generates high frequency sinusoidal current with a monopolar mode of application using two electrodes. A fixed electrode is placed in contact with the patient and a handheld electrode is manipulated by a therapist. When both electrodes are in contact with a patient the electrical circuit is closed and RF therapy can be provided. The device can be operated in a capacitor resistive monopolar mode and a multipolar mode.
The product consists of a power console on a moveable trolley, LCD monitor, and accessories including capacitive resistive electrodes and multipolar electrodes. The unit can be adjusted to provide various levels of treatment frequency ranging from 300kHz to 1MHz.

Dear Mr. COMMEAU:
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 requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part

Summary of Testing:
The technological characteristics of the BACK3 COLOR System has been verified based on assessments of electrical safety, performance, biocompatibility, software and usability.
The following testing has been conducted with satisfactory results:
- BACK3 COLOR Usability and Risk Management: Usability and Risk Management ● assessments were done using worse-case assumptions to verify user interface, safety features and satisfactory performance.
- Biocompatibility: Samples of the tissue contacting probes were tested for cytotoxicity, sensitization and intracutaneous reactivity.
- Software Assessment: Software features were assessed in accordance with FDA software validation guidelines. Levels of Concern, User & System Requirements, Hazard Analysis, Software Requirements, Architectural Design, Software Validation & Testing were all addressed.
- . Electromagnetic Compatibility: EMC testing was done to evaluate emissions and immunity to electromagnetic fields in accordance with IEC 60601-1-2.
- . Electrical Safety: Full electrical safety testing was done in compliance with IEC 60601-1.
- Human being testing : a tissue temperature elevation study was conduct to demonstrate ability of all applicators of subject device to maintain therapeutic temperature on the surface of the human skin. The study was conduct on three different people on three body parts with all device operation modes and at the lowest and highest power settings. The skin and room temperatures were measured.
Conclusion:
The BACK3 COLOR is substantially equivalent to the predicate device (K162828). Both devices operate in the same treatment range and feature intensity adjustments from 0 to 100%. Electrical safety and biocompatibility have been established for both devices.
