Device Story
DU857 is a two-channel physiotherapy system combining therapeutic ultrasound and neuromuscular stimulation in a cart-mounted console. Device inputs include user-defined settings via touch screen, keyboard, and soft knobs. Microprocessor-controlled electronics generate 1 and 3 MHz ultrasound and alternating current for muscle stimulation. Output is delivered via ultrasound applicators and muscle stimulator electrodes. Used in physiotherapy clinics by trained operators. System provides real-time feedback on operation mode and signal intensities. Output affects clinical decision-making by enabling heat/stretch therapy and muscle re-education. Benefits include pain management, spasm reduction, and prevention of atrophy.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Substantial equivalence is supported by bench testing and non-clinical documentation.
Technological Characteristics
System console with microprocessor control; 1 and 3 MHz ultrasound; alternating current muscle stimulation. Aluminum chassis. Piezoelectric barium titanate transducer. IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-2-5, IEC 60601-2-10 compliant. Touch screen interface with audio feedback. Two-channel output. AC line powered.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients requiring physiotherapy treatment for pain relief, muscle spasm reduction, blood flow increase, range of motion improvement, neuromuscular stimulation, or prevention of disuse atrophy and post-surgical phlebo-thrombosis.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
An ultrasound and muscle stimulator 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. The device also passes electrical currents through the body area to stimulate or relax muscles.

#### 9. Discussion of Clinical Tests Performed: Not applicable
#### 10. Conclusions:
The DU857 Dual Frequency Ultrasound Therapy and Muscle Stimulator System has the same intended use and similar characteristics as the predicate device, the Sonicator Plus ® 930, Model ME 930 device. Moreover, bench testing and non-clinical testing documentation supplied in this submission demonstrates that any differences in their technological characteristics do not raise any new questions of safety or effectiveness. Thus, the Alfa Tech Medical Systems Ltd. DU857 Dual Frequency Ultrasound Therapy and Muscle Stimulator System is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
