There are differences in output parameters between the subject and predicate devices. First, the subject device has additional TENS output modes (i.e., Symmetrical RAAS, Asymmetrical RAAS). These output modes do not raise new questions of safety and effectiveness nor a new intended use.
There are minor differences in maximum output voltage, maximum output current, frequency, and phase duration which do not raise new questions of safety and effectiveness.
The net charge and phase charge for the Microcurrent mode are very large which could increase the risk of skin irritation and burns. Additionally, the device is capable of delivery current densities greater than 2mA/cm2 (i.e., the limit set by IEC 60601-2-10). However, this risk associated with these parameters has been mitigated with labeling revisions which 1) warn users of the risk of skin irritation and burns, 2) instruct device operators to monitor patients for adverse events throughout the duration of treatment, and 3) instruct that the treatment site should be examined after each treatment session to monitor for signs of irritation and/or burns.
Minor differences in the power density do not raise questions of safety and effectiveness since they remain under the 0.25W/cm2 limit set within the FDA guidance document "Guidance Document for Powered Muscle Stimulator 510(k)s."
Lastly, there are minor differences in the ultrasound output parameters which do not raise new questions of safety and effectiveness.

§ 890.5860 Ultrasound and muscle stimulator.
(a)
Ultrasound and muscle stimulator for use in applying therapeutic deep heat for selected medical conditions —(1)Identification. An ultrasound and muscle stimulator for use in applying therapeutic deep heat for selected medical conditions is a device that applies to specific areas of the body ultrasonic energy at a frequency beyond 20 kilohertz and that is intended to generate deep heat within body tissues for the treatment of selected medical conditions such as relief of pain, muscle spasms, and joint contractures, but not for the treatment of malignancies. The device also passes electrical currents through the body area to stimulate or relax muscles.(2)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).(b)
Ultrasound and muscle stimulator for all other uses —(1)Identification. An ultrasound and muscle stimulator for all other uses except for the treatment of malignancies is a device that applies to the body ultrasonic energy at a frequency beyond 20 kilohertz and applies to the body electrical currents and that is intended for the treatment of medical conditions by means other than the generation of deep heat within body tissues and the stimulation or relaxation of muscles as described in paragraph (a) of this section.(2)
Classification. Class III (premarket approval).(c)
Date PMA or notice of completion of PDP is required. A PMA or notice of completion of a PDP for a device described in paragraph (b) of this section is required to be filed with the Food and Drug Administration on or before July 13, 1999 for any ultrasound and muscle stimulator described in paragraph (b) of this section that was in commercial distribution before May 28, 1976, or that has, on or before July 13, 1999, been found to be substantially equivalent to an ultrasound and muscle stimulator described in paragraph (b) of this section that was in commercial distribution before May 28, 1976. Any other ultrasound and muscle stimulator described in paragraph (b) of this section shall have an approved PMA or declared completed PDP in effect before being placed in commercial distribution.
