Intended Use
M&R Reusable Electrodes are intended for singlepatient/multiple-application use in TENS ("traditional" TENS, NMES ("traditional" NMES , microcurrent TENS, etc.) or interferential, high-volt pulsed galvanic, functional electrical stimulation, etc.).
Device Description
M&R Reusable Electrodes are laminated, flexible structures composed of materials commonly used in this application (e.g., various cloths, tapes, etc. with biocompatible adhesive, various electrical conductors, and various biocompatible conductive gels). The electrodes are available in models of various sizes with either direct pin lead wire connection or via an integral electrode "prewire" lead wire, and are compatible with all standard, marketed TENS and NMES stimulation devices.
More Information

Not Found

No
The device description and intended use describe a passive electrode, and there is no mention of AI, ML, or any computational processing.

Yes
The device is intended for use in TENS or NMES, which are therapeutic modalities for muscular and neurological conditions.

No
The description states the device is intended for use with TENS or NMES stimulation devices, which are therapeutic rather than diagnostic. The electrodes transmit electrical currents for stimulation, not for detecting or analyzing physiological conditions.

No

The device description clearly states it is a physical product composed of materials like cloth, tapes, conductors, and gels, and is compatible with TENS and NMES stimulation devices, indicating it is a hardware component.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the electrodes are for use in TENS, NMES, and other electrical stimulation therapies. These are therapeutic applications, not diagnostic tests performed on samples taken from the body (which is the definition of an in vitro diagnostic).
  • Device Description: The description details the physical components of the electrodes and their compatibility with stimulation devices. There is no mention of analyzing biological samples or providing diagnostic information.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The document does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Detecting or measuring substances in biological samples
    • Providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening of diseases or conditions

Therefore, the M&R Reusable Electrodes are a therapeutic device used for electrical stimulation, not an in vitro diagnostic device.
