The summary describes a device using RF and EMS technology with adjustable parameters, but there is no mention of AI or ML in the intended use, device description, or performance studies.
Yes
The device is intended for the treatment of selected medical conditions such as pain relief, muscle spasms, increasing local circulation, prevention of disuse atrophy, muscle re-education, and maintaining or increasing range of motion, which are all therapeutic purposes.
No
The device description focuses on its therapeutic capabilities, such as pain relief, muscle spasms treatment, local circulation increase, cellulite reduction, prevention of disuse atrophy, muscle re-education, and maintaining/increasing range of motion. There is no mention of the device being used to diagnose conditions or gather diagnostic information.
No
The device description explicitly mentions hardware components such as a power console, LCD monitor, electrodes, and the generation of electrical currents (RF and EMS), indicating it is a hardware-based medical device with potential software control.
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, or tissue) to provide information about a person's health. They are used outside the body.
- Device Function: The BACK 4 device uses RF and EMS technology to apply energy directly to the patient's body for therapeutic purposes (pain relief, muscle stimulation, cellulite reduction, etc.). It does not analyze samples taken from the body.
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes treatment of medical conditions by applying energy to the body, not by analyzing biological samples.
- Device Description: The description details electrodes and applicators that are placed in contact with the patient, not equipment for handling and analyzing biological specimens.
Therefore, the BACK 4 device falls under the category of therapeutic medical devices, not In Vitro Diagnostics.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The BACK 4 device employs RF technology or EMS technology for the treatment of selected medical conditions.

Device Description
The BACK 4 device generates high frequency sinusoidal current with a monopolar mode of application using two electrodes. A neutral electrode is placed in contact with the patient and a handheld active 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 capacitive or resistive monopolar modes and a multipolar mode.
The product consists of a power console, LCD monitor, and accessories including capacitive, resistive and multipolar electrodes. The unit can be adjusted to provide various levels of treatment frequency ranging from 300kHz to 1MHz.
The product can also employ EMS technology. It generates a 4kHz or 1.5kHz electrostimulation signal (modulated at a frequency set between 2Hz and 200Hz).
The two RF and EMS technologies should not be used in combination or sequentially.
An Emergency stop button feature allows the patient to shut down the unit in the event of any discomfort.

Substantial Equivalence/Technological Characteristics:
The BACK 4 device is substantially equivalent to the following primary and secondary devices for the technology RF and EMS accordingly.
Device | Manufacturer | 510(k) No. | Technical characteristics similar to the Subject device |
---|---|---|---|
Primary device | |||
BACK3 COLOR | |||

A Primary predicate device (RF technology)
The BACK 4 device is substantially equivalent to the BACK3 COLOR device from SWIMS America Corp which was cleared under premarket notification K214090. Both devices are cart mounted consoles with electrode accessories capable of operation in monopolar and multipolar modes in the range of 300kHz to 1MHz radiofrequency.
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. No direct comparison was made since there are no significant differences in operation and test results indicate identical safety.
> Secondary predicate device (EMS technology)
The BACK 4 device shares also the same intended use and Product codes (PBX, IPF) as the FDA-Cleared Evolve System with the T3 Applicator (K210877). Both devices are also designed to deliver electro-muscle stimulation (EMS) for the treatment of different body areas for various medical
5
applications. These devices have the same range of frequencies (Subject Device: 2-200 Hz; Secondary Predicate: 3-200 Hz).
Indeed, both devices have specifications in common:
- A Main Line Frequency (nominal): 50-60 Hz
- Input Voltage (nominal): 100 240 VAC. A
Please note that the Subject device does not follow the Product code GZJ, which the secondary predicate does follow. That is why some intended uses linked to this Product Code are not found in the intended use of the Subject device: Symptomatic relief and management of chronic, intractable postsurgical acute pain.
These minor differences in technical specifications should not alter the device safety and effectiveness. Furthermore, the Subject device had underwent the required performance testing and validation testing and demonstrates its conformance with device design requirements and with applicable standards.
The safety features and compliance with safety standards of the subject device are similar to the safety features and compliance with safety standards of the predicate devices. All user-contacting materials were tested for biocompatibility and found to comply with the ISO 10993-1 standard. Furthermore, the design and development phases of the subject device were validated throughout a set of performance tests, including software validation testing, electrical and mechanical safety testing according to IEC 60601-1 standard, electromagnetic compatibility testing according to IEC 60601-1-2 standard, safety and essential performance of nerve and muscle stimulators testing according to IEC 60601- 2-10 standard.
All in all, these performance tests demonstrated that the device specifications meet the system requirements and do not raise new safety or effectiveness concerns.
Consequently, it can be concluded that the BACK 4 is substantially equivalent to its predicate device and can be sold in the US market.
The table below summarizes the equivalence of the devices.
