Intended Use
The MC1 is indicated for: a) Therapeutic Massager: 1. Provides temporary relief of minor muscle aches and pains 2. Relieves muscle spasms 3. Temporarily improves blood circulation 4. Temporarily reduces the appearance of cellulite b) Ultrasonic Diathermy: 1. Relief of pain 2. Muscle spasms 3. Joint contractures 4. NOT for the treatment of malignancies
Device Story
MC1 is a computerized body massager and ultrasound diathermy system. Device includes two handpieces: one ultrasonic handpiece with two 1 MHz transducers and one computerized body massage handpiece. System operates by delivering ultrasonic energy to heat tissue or providing mechanical massage. Used in clinical settings by healthcare providers. Output consists of therapeutic deep heat or massage action. Clinical benefit includes pain relief, spasm reduction, improved circulation, and temporary cellulite reduction. Device performance verified by tissue heating capability (reaching at least 40° C).
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Performance data demonstrated the MC1 conforms to IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, and IEC 60601-2-5. Comparative bench testing showed the MC1 increases tissue temperature to at least 40° C, consistent with the performance of the predicate MED Sculpt device.
Technological Characteristics
Computerized system with two 1 MHz ultrasound transducers and a massage handpiece. Operates as ultrasonic diathermy and therapeutic massager. Conforms to IEC 60601-1 (electrical safety), IEC 60601-1-2 (EMC), and IEC 60601-2-5 (ultrasonic physiotherapy equipment).
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients requiring temporary relief of minor muscle aches, pains, muscle spasms, joint contractures, improved local blood circulation, or reduction in cellulite appearance. Contraindicated for treatment of malignancies.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
An ultrasonic diathermy 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.

2. Names
Trade Name: Common Name: Classification Name: MC1 Ultrasound and Massager Therapeutic Massager Diathermy, Ultrasonic, For Use in Applying Therapeutic Deep heat. Product Codes: ISA (21 CFR 890.5660), IMI (21 CFR 890.5300)
#### 3. Legally Marketed Predicate Devices
The MC1 is substantially equivalent to the following devices: MED Sculpt, manufactured by General Project (K053041), Dermosonic, manufactured by Sybaritic, Inc. (K024307), Forte CPS 400 Combo (K982830), manufactured by Chattanooga Group, Inc. and Omnisound 3000 (K883893), manufactured by Physio Technology, Inc.

### 4. Device Description
The MC1 is a computerized body massager and ultrasound diathermy system. The MC1 is supplied with two handpieces: one ultrasonic handpiece with two 1 MHz transducers mounted on it and one handpiece for computerized body massage.
### 5. Intended Use
The MC1 is indicated for:
- a) Therapeutic Massager:
- 1. Provides temporary relief of minor muscle aches and pains
- 2. Relieves muscle spasms
- 3. Temporarily improves blood circulation
- 4. Temporarily reduces the appearance of cellulite
- b) Ultrasonic Diathermy:
- 1. Relief of pain
- 2. Muscle spasms
- 3. Joint contractures
- 4. NOT for the treatment of malignancies
## 6. Substantial Equivalence
The MC1 is substantially equivalent to the identified predicate devices. The MC1 has the same indications for use as the General Project MED Sculpt and the Sybaritic Dermosonic. Regarding technological characteristics, the MC1 includes both massage and ultrasound diathermy handpieces as do the General Project MED Sculpt and the Sybaritic Dermosonic. The Chattanooga Group, Inc. Forte CPS 400 Combo and the Physio Technology, Inc. Omnisound 3000 are ultrasound based devices only. Differences between the MC1 and the identified predicate devices were evaluated in performance testing and the MC1 was found to be substantially equivalent to the identified predicate devices.
### 7. Performance Data
The MC1 was tested and found to conform with IEC 60601-1 for electrical safety, IEC 60601-1-2 for electromagnetic compatibility and IEC 60601-2-5 for electrical safety in ultrasonic physiotherapy equipment. The MED Sculpt was found to conform with these same electrical safety standards. Performance data was presented which showed that the MC1 performed similarly to the previously cleared MED Sculpt in terms of tissue heating. Specifically, testing showed that the MC1 increases tissue temperature as required for ultrasonic diathermy. The two 1 MHz ultrasound transducers can be considered equivalent to the MED Sculpt in terms of heating tissue temperature to at least 40° C. These results are similar to those reported for the MED Sculpt.
### 8. Conclusion
The MC1 is substantially equivalent to the identified predicate devices in terms of indications for use, electrical safety testing and performance testing which indicated that the MC1 and the MED Sculpt were substantially equivalent in terms of tissue heating.
