Device Description

AI/ML Overview

This document is a 510(k) clearance letter from the FDA for two devices: Sys*Stim® ME294 and Sonicator Plus 992 (ME992) and Sonicator Plus 994 (ME994). It does not contain information about acceptance criteria or a study proving device performance against such criteria.

The letter is a notification of "substantial equivalence" to devices marketed prior to May 28, 1976, which allows these devices to be marketed. It lists the "Indications For Use" for the Sonicator Plus 992/994, which are:

Therapeutic Ultrasound:

1. Pain relief
2. Reduction of muscle spasm
3. Localized increase in blood flow
4. Increase range of motion of contracted joints using heat and stretch techniques.

Neuromuscular Stimulation:

1. Symptomatic relief of chronic intractable pain, acute post-traumatic pain, or acute post-surgical pain (Interferential, Premodulated and Microcurrent waveforms)
2. Temporary relaxation of muscle spasm (all waveforms except Microcurrent)
3. Prevention of post-surgical phlebo-thrombosis through immediate stimulation of calf muscles (all waveforms except Microcurrent)
4. Increase of blood flow in the treatment area (all waveforms except Microcurrent)
5. Prevention or retardation of disuse atrophy in post-injury type conditions (all waveforms except Microcurrent)
6. Muscle re-education (all waveforms except Microcurrent)
7. Maintaining or increasing range of motion (all waveforms except Microcurrent)

Since the document is a 510(k) clearance based on substantial equivalence to predicate devices, it does not detail specific performance studies with acceptance criteria for the new devices. The FDA's determination of substantial equivalence means the new devices are considered as safe and effective as legally marketed predicate devices, without necessarily requiring new clinical trials or performance studies if sufficient data already exists from the predicate device.

Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information about acceptance criteria and a study that proves the device meets them from this document.

Dear Mr. Fleming:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notifications of intent to market the devices referenced above and we have determined these devices are substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosures) 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 devices, 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 devices are classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), they may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your devices 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 (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 In addition, FDA may publish further announcements action. concerning your devices in the Federal Register. Please note:

Page 2 - Mr. Robert E. Fleming

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.

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

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