Not Found

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

Yes
The device is described as producing "therapeutic deep heat" for conditions such as pain relief, muscle spasms, and joint contractures, which are therapeutic applications.

No
The device is described as producing therapeutic deep heat for conditions like pain relief, muscle spasms, and joint contractures, which are therapeutic applications, not diagnostic ones.

No

The device is described as an "Ultrasound device" and is used to "produce therapeutic deep heat". This strongly implies a hardware component (the ultrasound transducer) is necessary to generate the therapeutic effect, making it a hardware device with potential software control, not a software-only device.

Based on the provided information, the Fibra Sonics Exonix Ultrasound device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use describes the device as producing therapeutic deep heat for conditions like pain relief, muscle spasms, and joint contractures. This is a therapeutic application, not a diagnostic one.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Providing information about a patient's health status based on in vitro analysis.
    • Mentioning any laboratory procedures or reagents.

IVDs are devices used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. The Fibra Sonics Exonix Ultrasound device's function is to apply energy to the body for therapeutic effect.

§ 890.5300 Ultrasonic diathermy.

(a)
Ultrasonic diathermy for use in applying therapeutic deep heat for selected medical conditions —(1)Identification. An ultrasonic diathermy for use in applying therapeutic deep heat for selected medical conditions is a device that applies to specific areas of the body ultrasonic energy at a frequency beyond 20 kilohertz and that is intended to generate deep heat within body tissues for the treatment of selected medical conditions such as relief of pain, muscle spasms, and joint contractures, but not for the treatment of malignancies.(2)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).(b)
Ultrasonic diathermy for all other uses —(1)Identification. An ultrasonic diathermy for all other uses except for the treatment of malignancies is a device that applies to the body ultrasonic energy at a frequency beyond 20 kilohertz and that is intended for the treatment of medical conditions by means other than the generation of deep heat within body tissues as described in paragraph (a) of this section.(2)
Classification. Class III (premarket approval).(c)
Date PMA or notice of completion of PDP is required. A PMA or notice of completion of a PDP for a device described in paragraph (b) of this section is required to be filed with the Food and Drug Administration on or before July 13, 1999, for any ultrasonic diathermy described in paragraph (b) of this section that was in commercial distribution before May 28, 1976, or that has, on or before July 13, 1999, been found to be substantially equivalent to an ultrasonic diathermy described in paragraph (b) of this section that was in commercial distribution before May 28, 1976. Any other ultrasonic diathermy described in paragraph (b) of this section shall have an approved PMA or declared completed PDP in effect before being placed in commercial distribution.

Dear Mr. Brohm:

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 requlations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Requlations, 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 requlation 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.
