Intended Use
For adjunctive use in post-traumatic pain syndromes; for management and symptomatic relief of chronic (long-term) pain; as an adjunctive treatment in the management of post-surgical pain problems; relaxation of muscle spasms; prevention or retardation of tissue atrophy; increasing local blood circulation; muscle re-education; immediate postsurgical stimulation of calf muscles to prevent phlebothrombosis; and maintaining or increasing range of motion. To stimulate peripheral nerves for the purpose of providing pain relief and to stimulate motor nerves for the purpose of muscle rehabilitation.

More Information

Not Found

Not Found

No
The provided 510(k) summary does not contain any mention of AI, ML, or related concepts. The intended use and device description (though not found) do not suggest the use of such technologies.

Yes
The intended uses listed (e.g., pain relief, muscle rehabilitation, relaxation of muscle spasms, increasing local blood circulation, maintaining or increasing range of motion) are all therapeutic in nature, aimed at treating or alleviating conditions.

No

The provided text describes a device used for various therapeutic purposes such as pain relief, muscle relaxation, and rehabilitation, not for diagnosing medical conditions.

Unknown

The provided text only includes the intended use/indications for use. Without a device description, it is impossible to determine if the device is software-only or includes hardware components.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended uses listed are all related to stimulating nerves and muscles for therapeutic purposes (pain relief, muscle rehabilitation, etc.). These are direct treatments applied to the patient's body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: An IVD device is used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. The provided description does not mention any such activity.
  • Device Description (Not Found): While the description is missing, the intended use is the primary indicator of whether a device is an IVD.
  • No Mention of Specimen Analysis: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples.

Therefore, this device appears to be a therapeutic device, likely a type of electrical stimulator, rather than an in vitro diagnostic device.

Dear Mr. Hansjurgens:

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, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions The general controls provisions of the Act 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 II (Special Controls) or 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. ਜੋ substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the current Good Manufacturing Practice requirement, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) 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 the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations.
