Indications for Use
The D-ACTOR® 200 Vibration Massage System is intended for: - Relief of minor muscle aches and pains - Temporary increase in local blood circulation - Activation of connective tissue
Device Story
D-ACTOR 200 is a therapeutic vibration massage system using pneumatically generated radial pressure waves. System comprises control unit, handpiece, and optional tablet PC. Operation involves pressurized air pulses accelerating a projectile within a tube to impact a skin-contacting steel activator; dampened by O-rings and vibration absorber. Coupling gel is applied to skin to facilitate pulse transmission. Operator adjusts energy level, frequency, and pulse count via GUI. Software includes patient management, treatment program editing, and 3D musculature visualization for marking treatment regions. Used in clinical settings by trained operators to deliver continuous vibration. Output provides mechanical stimulation to muscle groups, intended to increase local circulation and relieve minor aches. Benefits include non-invasive muscle therapy and progress tracking via saved images/videos.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. In-vitro testing evaluated applicator displacement, force, and penetration depth, confirming equivalence to predicate AW modules. Ultrasonic energy output (approx. 5% of total) was measured per modified IEC 61846 protocols, showing energy flow densities of 0.176mJ/mm2 at 3 bar and 0.284mJ/mm2 at 5 bar. Biocompatibility testing conformed to ISO 10993-1:2003. Electrical safety and EMC testing confirmed compliance with IEC 60601-1:2012 and IEC 60601-1-2:2007.

#### 4. DEVICE DESCRIPTION
The D-ACTOR® handpiece uses pressurized air pulses to accelerate a projectile within a guiding tube. The accelerated projectile hits a skin-contacting steel activator which is dampened by elastic O-rings that affix it to the distal end of the handpiece and a vibration absorber at proximal end of the handpiece. When the projectile impacts the activator, slow-rising, low-amplitude pressure pulses are generated. Standard coupling gel is typically used to reduce the loss of pulse amplitude to surrounding air. The D-ACTOR 200 System consists of a Control Unit, Handpiece, Mains Cable, Commercially available coupling gel, Foot switch (optional), and Tablet PC (optional). The password protected GUI interface software allows the operator to create, save and edit treatment programs for application to various muscle groups, and permits the operator to create, edit and save individual patient treatment program routines and progress notes. Various software features permit the operator to: (1) adjust energy level, number of pulses, frequency and total pulses delivered, (2) display and adjust skin contact intensity of the applicator, (3) save treatment images/videos to track progress, and (4) utilize Visible Body® interactive 3D musculature to allow the operator to "mark" and save treatment regions to patient records.
#### 5. INTENDED USE
The D-ACTOR® 200 Vibration Massage System is intended for:
- · Relief of minor muscle aches and pains
- Temporary increase in local blood circulation
- Activation of connective tissue
#### 6. TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS AND SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE
The technological characteristics of the D-ACTOR® 200 device and the predicate devices are substantially equivalent in that each device is designed to use pressurized air pulses to accelerate a projectile within a guiding tube that hits a skin-contacting steel activator. When the projectile impacts the activator, slowrising, low-amplitude pressure pulses are generated. Standard coupling gel is used to reduce the loss of pulse amplitude to surrounding air. The D-ACTOR® 200 and the predicate devices employ the same principles of operation. The D-ACTOR® 200 is substantially equivalent in function, purpose and design to the predicate devices and other legally marketed therapeutic massagers and vibrators.
{5}------------------------------------------------
#### 7. PERFORMANCE TESTING
Verification and validation testing was performed and demonstrated that the D-ACTOR® 200 meets the design specifications and is safe and effective for its intended use. All tests required by the verification and validation plan were completed and passed.
The D-ACTOR® 200 software was validated and demonstrated to be of a Moderate level of concern; while hazard analysis / risk management was performed and demonstrated that all risks are mitigated to an acceptable level. The skin contacting component was tested for biocompatibility and found to conform to elements of ISO 10993-1:2003. The D-ACTOR® 200 was tested and demonstrated to conform to the general safety requirements of IEC 60601-1:2012 (Ed. 3.1); as well as the electromagnetic compatibility requirements of IEC 60601-1-2:2007 (3rd Ed.).
In-vitro testing was performed to determine applicator displacement, force and penetration depth and was demonstrated to be equivalent to the AW module (i.e., D-ACTOR provided as OEM) of the predicate devices. Ultrasonic energy comprises approximately 5% of D-ACTOR® 200 total output and this parameter was evaluated by employing modified protocols from IEC 61846. Those tests demonstrated energy flow densities (ED) of 0.176mJ/mm2 at 3 bar pressure (same ED as the predicates) and 0.284mJ/mm2 at 5 bar pressure.
There are no performance standards applicable to the D-ACTOR device adopted under Section 514 of the Act. However, in addition to the international consensus standards cited above, the D-ACTOR® 200 also complies with the applicable requirements of the following international standards:
- ISO 14971:2000/A1:2003: Medical devices: Application of risk management ● to medical devices.
- IEC 62304:2006: Medical Device Software Software Life Cycle Process. ●
- IEC 61000-3-2:2000: Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC): Limits Limits ● for harmonic current emission.
- . IEC 61000-3-3:2000: Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC): Limits -Limitation of voltage changes, voltage fluctuations and flicker in public lowvoltage supply systems.
The performance testing demonstrated that the D-ACTOR® 200 is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices and that it is safe and effective for its intended use. The table below compares D-Actor® 200 characteristics to the predicate devices.
