The document describes a combination device for muscle stimulation and heating, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities, data processing, or performance metrics typically associated with AI/ML algorithms.
Yes
The device description and intended uses clearly state that it is for treating various medical conditions such as muscle reeducation, pain relief, and reducing inflammation, which are therapeutic applications.
No
Explanation: The device description and intended use indicate that the Stellar Model HS-04 is a therapeutic device (stimulator, interferential, and heating modes) used for treatment purposes like muscle reeducation, pain relief, and increasing blood circulation, rather than for diagnosing conditions.
No
The device description explicitly states that the Stellar Model HS-04 is a "combination device" that includes "heating elements" and "stimulation electrodes" within the applicators, indicating it has hardware components beyond just software.
Based on the provided information, the Stellar Model HS-04 is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.
Here's why:
- IVD devices are used to examine specimens from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- The Stellar Model HS-04 is a therapeutic device that applies electrical stimulation and heat directly to the body. Its intended uses are for treating muscle and joint pain, improving circulation, and preventing atrophy and thrombosis.
- The device description and intended uses clearly indicate it is a physical therapy device, not a diagnostic one.
Therefore, the Stellar Model HS-04 falls under the category of a therapeutic medical device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Device Description
The Stellar Model HS-04 is a device that combines the functionality of two devices that have been classified by FDA, the powered muscle stimulator and the powered heating pad. Heat and muscle stimulation are often used at the same time by physical therapists and others to treat patients, and the HS-04 provides both therapies with a single combination device for convenience. The heating elements are contained in the same applicators that hold the stimulation electrodes.
The system is powered through an AC power adaptor which can accept voltages in the range 90-132 VAC and 46-63 Hz and it draws a maximum of 0.7 Amperes. The stimulator section only (no heat) can be powered temporarily with an alkaline battery.
The HS-04 uses solid state electronics to generate the stimulation waveforms and resistive DC-powered heating elements to produce the heating effect. These characteristics are the same as those of the predicate devices.
The pulse rate and intensity are settable on the controller. In the muscle stimulator mode, the pulse rate may be varied between 1 and 150 pulses per second. The stimulator pulses for five seconds and then is off for five seconds.
The pulse width of the biphasic pulses may range from 1 to 415 microseconds according to the "intensity" setting. The second of the biphasic pair of pulses follows the first by 1 millisecond. The number of pulses per second may be adjusted from 1 to 150 by adjusting a potentiometer on the back of the controller box.
Each applicator pad is rectangular in shape (3 x 3.5 inches) with a thin profile. The heating component forms the back of the pad and the stimulation electrode forms the front surface. The stimulation electrodes have a conductive solid gel which sticks to the pad and the electrical contacts on one side and to the treatment area of the patient on the other.
