Intended Use

The biofeedback components of the InCare Pelvic Floor Therapy System with Desktop Computer are intended to provide electromyographic or pressure biofeedback from pelvic musculature for the purpose of rehabilitation of weak pelvic floor muscles and restoration of neuromuscular control for the treatment of urinary incontinence.

The electrical stimulation component of the InCare Pelvic Floor Therapy System with Desktop Computer provides stimulation capabilities for the purpose of rehabilitation of weak pelvic floor muscles for the treatment of urinary incontinence.

Device Description

The InCare Pelvic Floor Therapy System with Desktop Computer is an office based instrument that is intended to be used by physicians, nurses, nurse clinicians, and physiotherapists in a physicians office, clinic, or hospital for the purpose of providing electromyographic or pressure biofeedback from pelvic musculature for the purpose of rehabilitation of weak pelvic floor muscles and restoration of neuromuscular control for the treatment of urinary incontinence. The InCare Pelvic Floor Therapy System also provides electrical stimulation capabilities for the purpose of rehabilitation of weak pelvic floor muscles for the treatment of urinary incontinence.

The premarket notification is being submitted to the Agency to include the electrical stimulation parameter of 200 Hz to the existing InCare Pelvic Floor Therapy System with Desktop Computer, K961872.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text is a 510(k) premarket notification for the InCare Pelvic Floor Therapy System with Desktop Computer. It focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device (Hollister PRS9300 Pelvic Floor Therapy System, K961872), primarily due to the addition of a 200 Hz electrical stimulation parameter.

This type of submission does not typically include detailed acceptance criteria in the sense of performance metrics (like sensitivity, specificity, accuracy) derived from a clinical study, nor does it present the results of such a study with sample sizes, ground truth establishment, or expert adjudication. Instead, the acceptance criteria are met by demonstrating that the new device's technological characteristics are substantially equivalent to a legally marketed predicate device, and that this new parameter does not raise new questions of safety or effectiveness.

Therefore, many of the requested fields cannot be directly extracted from this document as the safety and effectiveness summary relies on substantial equivalence to a predicate device rather than a new clinical performance study with specific acceptance criteria that would be typical for a novel device or a device with new indications.

However, I can extract information related to the device characteristics that are presented to support the claim of substantial equivalence.

1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance

Since this is a substantial equivalence claim, the "acceptance criteria" are implicitly that the proposed device's characteristics must be comparable to the predicate device, or any differences must not raise new questions of safety or effectiveness. The "reported device performance" is essentially the detailed specifications of the proposed device, shown in comparison to the predicate device.

Not applicable. This is a medical device for treatment/biofeedback, not an algorithm being evaluated for standalone performance.

7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)

Not applicable. As noted, this submission is driven by substantial equivalence to a predicate device based on technical specifications rather than a clinical study requiring ground truth derived from expert consensus, pathology, or outcomes data. The "ground truth" for this application is the established safety and effectiveness of the predicate device and the demonstration that the new device remains within those bounds.

Dear Mr. Tokarz:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act). You may, therefore, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21. Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the Current Good Manufacturing Practice requirement, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (OS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic QS inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition. FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations.

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801 and additionally 809.10 for in vitro diagnostic devices), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4613. Additionally, for question and advertising of your device, please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4639. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR 807.97). Other general information on your responsibilities under the Act may be obtained from the Division of Small Manufacturers Assistance at its toll-free number (800) 638-2041 or (301) 443-6597 or at its Internet address http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/dsmamain.html".

§ 876.5320 Nonimplanted electrical continence device.

(a)
Identification. A nonimplanted electrical continence device is a device that consists of a pair of electrodes on a plug or a pessary that are connected by an electrical cable to a battery-powered pulse source. The plug or pessary is inserted into the rectum or into the vagina and used to stimulate the muscles of the pelvic floor to maintain urinary or fecal continence. When necessary, the plug or pessary may be removed by the user. This device excludes an AC-powered nonimplanted electrical continence device and the powered vaginal muscle stimulator for therapeutic use (§ 884.5940).(b)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).
