Intended Use
The PMD-2000 Interferential Stimulator is a multifunction device intended to be used for muscle and nerve stimulation using either of its two therapy modes. Interferential Current Stimulation or Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation. In the Interferential Current Mode the PMD-2000 is indicated for the following conditions: . Symptomatic relief of acute pain . Symptomatic management and relief of chronic pain . Adjunctive treatment for the management of post traumatic and . Post-surgical pain In the Neuromuscular Stimulation Mode, the PMD-2000 is indicated for the following conditions: . Relaxation of muscle spasms: . Prevention or retardation of disuse atrophy: Increasing local blood circulation; . Muscle re-education: Immediate post surgical stimulation of calf muscles to prevent venous thrombosis; o and . Maintaining or increasing range of motion. .
Device Story
PMD-2000 is a battery or AC-powered electrical muscle and nerve stimulator for clinic and outpatient use. Following physician prescription, clinician or patient selects from 15 preset therapy protocols or adjusts amplitude, frequency, and sweep/ramp times via tactile switches and 16-character LCD. Device delivers interferential current or neuromuscular stimulation through two independent channels using color-coded lead wires. Features include pause/resume functionality and timed sessions. Software and hardware monitor energy levels at multiple checkpoints to ensure patient safety. Device provides therapeutic electrostimulation to manage pain, improve circulation, and support muscle rehabilitation. Improvements over predicate include simplified battery system (AA alkaline/NiCad/NiMH), reduced weight, and enhanced user interface.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Performance characteristics and therapy output were compared between the PMD-2000 and the predicate device to demonstrate substantial equivalence.
Technological Characteristics
Battery (AA alkaline, NiCad, NiMH) or AC adapter powered. Two independent stimulation channels. 16-character (8x2) LCD interface with tactile switches. Features include continuous/pulsed stimulation, adjustable amplitude/frequency, and sweep/ramp settings. Software-controlled safety checkpoints for energy output. Form factor designed for portability.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients requiring symptomatic relief of acute, chronic, post-traumatic, or post-surgical pain (Interferential Current Mode) or for muscle spasm relaxation, prevention of disuse atrophy, increased local blood circulation, muscle re-education, prevention of venous thrombosis via calf stimulation, and maintenance/increase of range of motion (Neuromuscular Stimulation Mode).
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A powered muscle stimulator is an electrically powered device intended for medical purposes that repeatedly contracts muscles by passing electrical currents through electrodes contacting the affected body area.

- Continuous or pulsed stimulation. Various sweep and ramp times.
- Adjustable amplitude and frequency .
- . Fifteen preset therapy protocols
- . Pause button to allow temporary suspension of treatment and a resume button to allow the resumption of treatment. When a treatment session is paused, the timer does not countdown. Upon resumption of treatment, the timer resumes its countdown and the amplitude (intensity) is reset to zero.
- Easy to connect, easy to handle, patient lead wire/cable assembly with a "one way" . connector and color coded lead wires contribute to improved patient experience and improved therapy outcomes.
- Timed therapy sessions. .
- . Double A (AA) battery system accommodates standard alkaline, NiCad and Nickel Metal Hydride batteries.
- The PMD-2000 user interface incorporates a 16 character (8x2) Liquid Crystal . Display (LCD) and tactile switches for menu navigation.
#### 6. Basis for Substantial Equivalence
The PMD-2000 is substantially equivalent to the legally marketed device and is similar in design, features and function and provides the intended therapy in a safe and effective manner. Both devices offer near-identical preprogrammed treatment protocols and the clinician or patient can choose one or more of these pre-set options.
Bench testing was performed on the marketed device and the PMD-2000 and the therapy output and performance characteristics for both units was substantially equivalent.
## 7. Differences Between the Marketed Device and the PMD-2000
The PMD-2000 incorporates several improvements over the legally marketed device, including:
- Simplified battery system. There is no need to exclusively use rechargeable AA . batteries. This provides great freedom of mobility and battery choice to the user. This feature greatly reduces therapy down time. The simplified battery system also lowers the weight of the device by 50% and results in a more economically priced device.
- Very low operating temperatures due to the removal of the battery charging system. .
