These indications are the same as the predicate device's indications. The predicate device BTL-799L utilizes electromagnetic stimulation in order to achieve therapeutic effect. The proposed device BTL-703-2 also utilizes electromagnetic stimulation for its main therapeutic effect; however, the device is also equipped with a bipolar radiofrequency generator. The radiofrequency is warming the applicators' surface to below 40℃ thus enhancing the patient's comfort during the treatment. The BTL-703-2 electromagnetic technology is identical to FDA cleared predicate device BTL 799-2L. The bipolar radiofrequency technology has also been cleared by FDA in a number of devices, for example BTL-899 (K192224). {11}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/11/Picture/0 description: The image shows the logo for BTL Industries. The logo consists of three interconnected blue squares on the left side. To the right of the squares is the text "BTL Industries" in a dark gray, sans-serif font. Any differences between the predicate device and BTL-703-2 have no significant influence on the safety or effectiveness of the BTL-703-2 device. Therefore, the BTL-703-2 is substantially equivalent to the predicate device. ### Conclusion Based upon the intended use and known technical information provided in this pre-market notification, the BTL-703-2 device has been shown to be substantially equivalent to the currently marketed predicate devices.
