Intended Use
The sam 2.0 Long Duration Ultrasound Device is intended for home use to apply ultrasonic energy to generate deep heat within body tissues for the treatment of selected medical conditions such as the relief of pain, the relief of muscle spasms, the treatment of joint contractures, and the local increase in circulation.
Device Story
Device applies ultrasonic energy to generate deep heat in body tissues; used for pain relief, muscle spasms, joint contractures, and circulation increase. System comprises rechargeable power controller/timer, ultrasound applicators, applicator cables, and disposable ultrasonic coupling patches. Operates at 3 MHz frequency; delivers 0.65 W (single applicator) or 1.3 W (dual applicator) in continuous wave mode. Intended for home use by patients; prescription required. Firmware logs usage time without controlling therapy. Healthcare providers use output to manage musculoskeletal conditions; patients benefit from long-duration (4-hour) therapeutic heat application.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical trials performed. Evidence includes usability data, human factors studies, and literature supporting home-use labeling. Bench testing demonstrated diathermic heating effects on an ex vivo bovine muscle model and compliance with 21 CFR 1050.10, IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, and IEC 60601-1-11.
Technological Characteristics
Piezoelectric ultrasound generation using Lead Zirconate-Titanate crystals. 3 MHz frequency; continuous wave output. ABS plastic coupling bandage; TPX applicator lens. Powered by 120/240 VAC or lithium battery. Dimensions: 6.10 cm x 7.09 cm x 1.88 cm (console). Non-sterile. Compliance: 21 CFR 1050.10, IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, IEC 60601-1-11.
Indications for Use
Indicated for home use in patients requiring deep heat therapy for pain relief, muscle spasms, joint contractures, and local circulation increase.
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.

Dear Sabrina Lewis:
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. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. 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. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to 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.
{1}------------------------------------------------
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803) for devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/combination-products/guidance-regulatory-information/postmarketing-safety-reportingcombination-products); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR Part 807.97). For questions regarding the reporting of adverse events under the MDR regulation (21 CFR Part 803), please go to https://www.fda.gov/medical-device-safety/medical-device-reportingmdr-how-report-medical-device-problems.
