Intended Use

The microFET2™ System is a dynamometer device for performing muscle tests to quantitatively measure muscle weakness caused by injury or for sports medicine applications, as well as measure general muscle strength. The device is used to record and convey an individual's ability to resist force for a specific muscle group being tested.

Device Story

MicroFET2 is a handheld, battery-operated digital dynamometer; utilizes resistance-based strain gauge (load cell) to measure force applied by patient during muscle testing. Device captures analog force signals; microprocessor converts signals to digital, calibrated data; displays results on LCD or transmits via Bluetooth to optional clinical/data collection software. Used by clinicians in clinical settings to assess muscle strength/weakness in head, neck, limbs, and digits. Ergonomic design allows ambidextrous use; includes elastic strap for stabilization. Clinicians use objective measurements to evaluate patient progress, guide rehabilitation, and inform clinical decision-making regarding injury recovery or sports performance.

Bench testing only. No clinical data provided. Verification testing confirmed device met pre-determined acceptance criteria for electrical safety (IEC 60601-1), EMC (IEC 60601-1-2, CISPR 11, FCC Part 15B), and biocompatibility (referencing K860226).

Technological Characteristics

Handheld dynamometer; resistance-based strain gauge (load cell) sensing; 3.7V Lithium-Ion battery; wireless RF/Bluetooth connectivity; LCD display. Complies with IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, CISPR 11, and FCC Part 15B. Class II ME, Type B applied part. No sterilization required.

Indications for Use

Indicated for individuals recovering from physical injury or for sports medicine applications requiring quantitative measurement of muscle strength and weakness.

Regulatory Classification
