The PTG-05 is intended for:
- Improvement of abdominal tone, for strengthening of the abdominal muscles, for development of firmer abdomen.
- Strengthening, toning and firming of buttocks & thighs.
- Strengthening, toning and firming of arms
The PTG-05 is a non-invasive therapeutic device. The device produces an electrical current that interacts with the tissues of the human body. The PTG-05 is intended to increase the musculature of the abdominals, buttocks, arms and thighs. The device is intended to be used with single-use electrodes from Zimmer MedizinSysteme GmbH (K140340) or equivalent. The output of biphasic and middle frequency currents for muscle stimulation with maximum 8 channels at a time allows to treat several treatment areas simultaneously.
For an efficient treatment the user is guided via user interface throughout the whole treatment. First, the user can select the treatment area with the device illustrating where to place the electrodes. The modules are automatically matched to the specific treatment area while highlighted in the color of the matching trunk cable of the module.
In the therapy screen, the user can select one of the 5 pre-set treatment protocols for each treatment region based on the training level of the patient.
During the treatment, an animation of the electrodes is shown in the screen that outlines if the protocol is in a "work-phase" which means a contraction phase or if the protocol is in a "relax-phase" which refers to a muscle relax phase.
Expert mode
In addition, all 4 modules can be split into 8 channels using "Expert mode" for a precise adjustment of the individual channels. This is ideal to set different intensities for the inner musculature than for the outer musculature of a specific treatment area, for example.
Link-mode
All of the modules can be linked together which enables the use of the remote control where the patient by itself can set the intensity and stop the therapy at any time.
The provided text is a 510(k) summary for the PTG-05 device. It describes the device, its indications for use, and a comparison to a predicate device. However, it does not contain information about acceptance criteria or a clinical study proving device performance against such criteria. The "Performance data" section only mentions that testing for electrical safety, performance testing, biocompatibility, and usability were conducted satisfactorily, along with specific waveform measurements and adherence to consensus standards. It explicitly states: "All required performance tests were conducted and show substantial equivalence with the predicate device." This indicates technical performance testing, not clinical performance against acceptance criteria for the indicated uses (strengthening, toning, firming of muscles).
Therefore, based on the provided text, I cannot describe the acceptance criteria and the study that proves the device meets them in the way requested. The document focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device based on technological characteristics and adherence to safety and performance standards, rather than presenting a clinical study with acceptance criteria for the stated indications.
If this were a document providing clinical study results, the requested information would typically be found in sections describing clinical trials, performance goals, statistical analysis, and outcomes related to the stated indications for use (muscle tone improvement, strengthening, toning, firming).

The RFG-01 is intended to:
- provide topical heating for the purpose of elevating tissue temperature for the treatment of selected medical conditions such as temporary relief of pain, muscle spasms, and increase in local circulation.
- provide, with a massage device, a temporary reduction in the appearance of cellulite.
The RFG-01 is a mobile standalone equipment with four wheels and consists of a console (main unit), a color display with touch operation and three handpieces (small, medium, and large). The device develops localized heat to warm the subcutaneous tissue by means of radio frequency energy, delivered through electrodes in contact with the patient. The purpose of the treatment based on the radiofrequency system is to raise the temperature inside the tissues up to maximum of 45°C. Therefore, depending on the treatment and intended use, different parts of the body can be treated. The devices use RF electrodes of the resistive (or bipolar) types. Resistive RF electrodes have different sizes and plug into an RF handpiece that provides connection to the RF generator (through the electrode connectors). Handpieces of different shapes are available to facilitate use by the operator on different body parts. The use of different sizes allows efficient and effective treatment of various parts of the body. Two of the three handpieces can be used with or without vacuum, allowing an even deeper application of heat. The handpieces are to be used with a small amount of contact lotion, the purpose of which is to assist in heat transfer. The LEDs on every handpiece indicate the coupling and the correct temperature range during the treatment. The color touchscreen displays all treatment-related parameters.

Zimmer MedizinSysteme GmbH
clTrac is intended to provide relief for the management of pain and symptoms from a variety of pressures on muscular or skeletal structures. clTrac may be used to treat pain and symptoms associated with the following conditions: herniated discs, bulging or protruding intervertebral disc disease, posterior facet syndrome, acute facet problems, radicular pain, prolapsed discs, spinal root impingement, hypomobility, degenerative joint disease, facet syndrome, compression fractures, joint pain, and discogenic pain.
The clTrac is powered traction equipment that offers both static and intermittent traction. Spinal traction is a form of decompression that relieves the pressure on the spine. Traction is a non-surgical, non-invasive and non-pharmaceutical treatment for the management of pain and symptoms from a variety of pressures on muscular or skeletal structures. The clTrac is intended to be used by healthcare professionals (HCP) on their patients. When device is operational, the applied force shall not exceed +/-10% of the target force as set by the operator. clTrac applies a specific force onto the traction cord. The applied force is set by the operator by means of the touch screen and rotary knob. A patient interrupt button is available for the patient to pause the therapy. The cl Trac is a non-invasive therapeutic device. The device consists of a console with ABS housing. The console consists of an aluminium ground plate, an ABS outer shell, a 7" touch screen and a steel central control knob. A 2.9m long cord with a plastic patient interrupt button is plugged into the console. The console is intended to be fastened to a standardized traction table using screws that are tightly screwed into its aluminium ground plate, with holes in a standardized pattern. The implemented motor-gear unit applies traction via a traction cord that is fixed into the console with a 360° swivel head with guide pulley. The traction cord is intended to be attached to hip and thoracic traction belts that are sold separately.
The provided document is an FDA 510(k) clearance letter for the clTrac device, a powered traction equipment. It focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device (Eltrac 471) rather than a deep dive into specific performance study details with acceptance criteria for an AI/ML-based medical device.
Therefore, many of the requested details regarding acceptance criteria, specific study types (MRMC, standalone), sample sizes for test and training sets, expert qualifications, and ground truth establishment methods for an AI/ML device are NOT present in this document.
The document details the device's indications for use, technological characteristics, and compliance with various voluntary general and electrical safety standards. It explicitly states:
- Clinical Performance: Not applicable. This device does not require clinical testing for demonstration of substantial equivalence and safety/effectiveness."
This means the 510(k) clearance was based on non-clinical performance (bench testing, electrical safety, software validation, usability, risk management, and biocompatibility) and comparison to a predicate, not on a study demonstrating clinical performance with specific metrics like sensitivity, specificity, or reader improvement, which are typical for AI/ML device clearances.
Here's a breakdown of what can be extracted or inferred based on the provided text, and where the information is missing:
1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance

Two large applicators are connected to the control unit and can be used simultaneously depending on the treatment. CoolTone is a medical device that generates a magnetic field by applying a strong current to an applicator. It is equipped with the securement system, designed to maintain the position of the applicator throughout treatment.
A large color touch screen facilitates the use of the device. The on-screen information guides the user, step-by-step, through the entire treatment process. The treatment is operated through variable parameters such as frequency, time and intensity. Three, pre-set treatment options are available for users to choose from: Abdomen, buttocks and thighs.
This document is a 510(k) Premarket Notification for the CoolTone device. It states that the device is substantially equivalent to a previously cleared predicate device (K192940). As such, the purpose of this submission is not to prove new efficacy or safety but rather to demonstrate that modifications made to the device do not change its substantial equivalence to the predicate. Therefore, this document does not contain a new clinical study from which to extract acceptance criteria and performance data in the typical sense of a de novo device or a device with new indications.
The relevant sections to address your request will derive from the comparison to the predicate device and the performance testing conducted to show the current device continues to meet the predicate's performance.
Based on the provided text, here's an attempt to answer your questions, but many points will indicate that a new study to prove the device meets acceptance criteria was not required for this 510(k) submission, as it's establishing substantial equivalence to an existing cleared device with minor modifications.
Here's the analysis of the provided text:
1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance
The document does not explicitly present a table of "acceptance criteria" for a new clinical study.

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance
The document does not describe a clinical study with a "test set" of patient data in the conventional sense for evaluating diagnostic accuracy or treatment effectiveness using AI. The Cryo 7 is a non-invasive therapeutic device for cooling, and the evaluation focuses on its physical and functional performance, safety, and substantial equivalence to a predicate device.
Therefore, there is no sample size for a test set of patient data mentioned, nor is there information on data provenance (country of origin, retrospective/prospective). The study described is primarily a bench testing and engineering verification study rather than a clinical trial.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications
Since there is no "test set" of patient data requiring clinical ground truth established by experts, this information is not applicable and not provided in the document.
4. Adjudication Method
As there is no clinical test set requiring ground truth establishment, no adjudication method (e.g., 2+1, 3+1) is mentioned or relevant.
5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study and Effect Size
No MRMC study was conducted. The device is not an AI-assisted diagnostic or therapeutic aid for human readers. Its function is to provide cold air. Therefore, evaluating human reader improvement with AI assistance is not applicable to this device.
6. Standalone (Algorithm Only) Performance Study
The Cryo 7 is a physical medical device, not an algorithm, so a standalone algorithm-only performance study is not applicable. The software integral to the device was verified, but this is different from an "algorithm only" study for AI.
7. Type of Ground Truth Used
The "ground truth" for this device's evaluation is primarily based on engineering specifications, compliance with recognized standards (e.g., electrical safety, EMC, software lifecycle, usability), and physical performance measurements (e.g., air temperature and speed) compared to its predicate and its own design requirements. It's not a clinical ground truth like pathology or outcome data.
8. Sample Size for the Training Set
There is no "training set" in the context of machine learning or AI algorithms mentioned for this device. The development process would involve standard engineering design, testing, and verification.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established
As there is no training set as understood in AI/ML, this question is not applicable. The device's design and performance are based on established engineering principles and regulatory standards, not on learning from a dataset.
In summary: The provided document describes a 510(k) premarket notification for the Cryo 7 device, which is a physical cold air therapy device. The evaluation presented is focused on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device through engineering and performance comparisons, safety testing, and compliance with general medical device standards.
