The Modified Contact Heat-Evoked Potential Stimulator (CHEPS) is indicated for the use in evaluating the functionality of human pain reception and transmission of sensory pathways
Device Story
Modified Contact Heat-Evoked Potential Stimulator (CHEPS) is a computerized thermal stimulator for pain research. Device delivers non-invasive thermal stimuli to sensory nerve fibers to evoke potentials. Used by clinicians to evaluate pain reception and sensory pathway transmission. Differences from predicate include modified enclosure, additional thermode, Ramp & Hold functionality, and optional language support.
Technological Characteristics
Computerized thermal stimulator; includes thermode; features 'Ramp & Hold' operational mode; supports multiple languages.
Indications for Use
Indicated for evaluating human pain reception and sensory pathway transmission functionality.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
An evoked response electrical stimulator is a device used to apply an electrical stimulus to a patient by means of skin electrodes for the purpose of measuring the evoked response.

Trade/Device Name: Modified Contact Heat-Evoked Potential Stimulator (CHEPS) Regulation Number: 21 CFR 882.1870 Regulation Name: Evoked response electrical stimulator Regulatory Class: II Product Code: NTU Dated: May 31, 2005 Received: June 3, 2005
Dear Mr. Hattub:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) 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) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). 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 (PMA), 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 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
