The device is to be used for patient treatment by prescription only and is intended to be used in the home under the supervision of a caregiver during periods of sleep.
Device Description
Electrical stimulator that alleviate the symptoms of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), a psychological mental disorder, by non-invasively stimulating cranial nerves with fine electrical stimulation using extracorporeal electrodes. The treatment protocol using the BT-1000 is administered each night while the patient is sleeping, for 7-9 hours. The device is designed to provide non-invasive electrical stimulation of the trigeminal nerve via an electrode placed on the forehead.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a simple electrical stimulator with no mention of AI or ML capabilities, data processing, or training/test sets.

Yes
The device is indicated for the "treatment of pediatric Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)" and "alleviate the symptoms of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)" by stimulating cranial nerves, which falls under the definition of a therapeutic device designed to cure, mitigate, treat, or prevent disease.

No

The device is described as an "Electrical stimulator that alleviate the symptoms of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)" and its intended use is for "treatment of pediatric Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)". This indicates a therapeutic, not a diagnostic, function.

No

The device description explicitly states it is an "Electrical stimulator" that uses "extracorporeal electrodes" and mentions "Biocompatibility Test" and "Electrical Safety and Electromagnetic Compatibility Testing," all of which indicate a hardware component is integral to the device's function.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
  • Device Function: The BT-1000 is an external electrical stimulator that applies electrical stimulation to the trigeminal nerve on the forehead. It does not analyze any samples taken from the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is for the treatment of ADHD, not for the diagnosis of a condition through the analysis of biological samples.

The BT-1000 is a therapeutic device that delivers a physical intervention (electrical stimulation) to the patient.

Comparison between Subject and Predicate Device

1) Similarities

The subject device has the same indications for use as the predicate device. It also has the same performance parameters, such as physical state, technical method, stimulating surface area of the electrode, and the same technical specifications, such as maximum output current, net charge per pulse, and maximum current density, indicator, expected service life(battery), battery type, electrical protection, and etc. Regarding the technical specification about electric power and current, please refer to performance testing result.

The requirements for the Basic Documentation Level presented in the FDA Guidance "Content of Premarket Submissions for Device Software Functions" are equivalent to the MODERATE level of

7th Fl., A Bldg., Woolim Lions Valley 5-cha, 302, Galmachi-ro, Jungwon-gu, Seoungnam-si, Gyeonggi-do, Republic of Korea

10

concern in the previous obsolete Guidance. Therefore, the Software Documentation Level of the subject device is considered to be the same as that claimed in the Predicate Device.

2) Discussion

Based on the similarities between the subject device and the predicate device, the subject device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device. And, safety and biocompatibility testing confirmed that the subject device was producing the intended performance advocated by the subject device. Therefore, BT-1000 is considered to be substantially equivalent to the predicate device and can be safely marketed.
