Device Story
BTL-785W is a radiofrequency (RF) system for tissue heating, electrocoagulation, and muscle stimulation. Input: electrical power; Output: RF energy delivered via various applicators (BTL-785-1, 2, 3, 4, 7) to target tissue. System includes a microprocessor-controlled console with a 15.6" color touch screen for parameter setting and therapy guidance. Hand-pieces feature integrated buttons for control; treatment tips provide visual feedback on energy flow. Used in clinical settings by healthcare professionals. The BTL-785-7 applicator combines RF heating with electromagnetic muscle stimulation to induce muscle workout, increasing local circulation. Device monitors tissue temperature via integrated thermometers and patient feedback to maintain therapeutic range (40-45°C). Benefits include pain relief, muscle spasm reduction, and cosmetic skin improvements.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Performance data confirmed the BTL-785-7 applicator achieves and maintains superficial skin temperatures of 40-45°C. Electrical safety and electromagnetic compatibility verified per IEC 60601-1, 60601-1-2, 60601-2-2, and 60601-2-5. Biocompatibility, sterilization, and packaging validated per ISO 10993 and ISO 11135/11607 standards.
Technological Characteristics
System console with RF generator, computer, and 15.6" touch-screen interface. Applicators use monopolar RF (3.2 MHz for heating/stimulation, 1 MHz for surgical). Materials, size, and biocompatibility of RF tips match predicates. Sterilization via ethylene oxide. Software life cycle per IEC 62304. Energy source: 100-120V or 200-240V AC, 50/60 Hz.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients requiring tissue heating for pain relief, muscle spasms, or increased local circulation; temporary reduction of cellulite appearance; dermatological/general surgical electrocoagulation and hemostasis; and fractional skin treatment. Higher energy fractional treatments limited to Skin Types I-IV.

## BTL-785-7 applicator non-clinical performance data
The new BTL-785-7 applicator was tested to achieve superficial skin temperature (40 - 45°C ) and maintain it for required therapy time. The testing data demonstrated that the device is capable to achieve therapeutic parameters substantially equivalent to the currently cleared predicate device for requested intended use.
## Technological Characteristics
The BTL-785W device has similar technological characteristics compared to its predicate device. The BTL-785W device and the predicates are comprised of a system console and applicator(s). The system console consists of the RF generator, computer, and a touch-screen control panel. The device is accompanied by four applicators enabling connection to exchangeable tips.
The compared devices' applicators use the RF signal of the same monopolar mode of operation, waveform and frequency. The devices have the same properties regarding their RF tips, including material, size, biocompatibility and sterilization method where applicable.

#### Introduction of New Applicator BTL-785-7
This submission introduces the new applicator BTL-785W with BTL-785-7 applicator used with BTL-785-7-1, BTL-785-7-2, BTL-785-7-3, BTL-785-7-5 and BTL-785-7-6 single-use electrodes is intended to provide heating for the purpose of elevating tissue temperature for selected medical conditions such as temporary relief of pain, muscle spasms, and increase in local circulation.
#### Maximum RF and Output Power and EMS (BTL-785-7 applicator)
The maximum radiofrequency power as well as the maximum output power of the BTL-785-7 handsfree applicator is lower than the predicate. Nevertheless, the results of internal tests demonstrate that the device is able to achieve an equivalent treatment temperature and maintain it for the time required. The predicate device uses mechanical manipulation of the muscles. while the BTL-785-7 applies muscle stimulation resulting in induced muscle workout naturally increases local blood circulation.
We believe the difference does not raise any new questions of safety or effectiveness.
## Substantial Equivalence
The BTL-785W device has the same technological characteristics and similar intended use compared to the predicate device. Any differences between the predicate device and BTL-785W device have no significant influence on safety or effectiveness of the BTL-785W device.
There are no technological modifications done to the device and its applicators compared to the predicate device.
Therefore, the BTL-785W device is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.
# Conclusion
Based upon the intended use, comparison of technical characteristics and performance testing provided in this pre-market notification, the BTL-785W device has been shown to be substantially equivalent to currently cleared predicate device for requested intended use.
