Not Applicable

No
The document does not contain any mentions of AI, ML, or related concepts, and the device description is for a standard neuromuscular stimulator.

Yes.
The device's stated indications for use, such as "Relaxation of muscle spasms," "Prevention of retardation of disuse atrophy," and "Immediate post-surgical stimulation of calf muscles to prevent venous thrombosis," aim to treat or alleviate medical conditions, which defines it as a therapeutic device.

No
None of the listed indications for use involve diagnosing a condition; they all describe therapeutic or preventative actions.

No

The summary describes a "POWERED MUSCLE STIMULATOR" and "HMS Neuromuscular Stimulator, Model HMS-3". This strongly suggests a hardware device that delivers electrical stimulation, not a software-only device.

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 muscles for therapeutic purposes (relaxation, preventing atrophy, increasing circulation, re-education, preventing thrombosis, maintaining range of motion). These are all in vivo applications, meaning they are performed on a living organism.
  • Device Description: The device is described as a "Powered Muscle Stimulator." This type of device directly interacts with the body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing samples (like blood, urine, tissue), detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information based on in vitro testing.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, prevention, monitoring, treatment, or alleviation of disease. This device's function is entirely different.

Dear Mr. Harris:

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 enclosures) to legally marketed predicate 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 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 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. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the Current Good Manufacturing Practice requirements, 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 devices 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.
