TENS: This function is designated to be used for temporary relief of pain associated with sore and aching muscles in the shoulder, waist, back, upper extremities (arm) and lower extremities (leg)due to strain from exercise or normal household work activities. EMS: This function is designed to be used for stimulating healthy muscles in order to improve and facilitate muscle performance.
Device Story
Heat StimPlus (FDES115) is a battery-operated OTC transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulator (TENS) and powered muscle stimulator (EMS) with integrated heat function. Device delivers electrical stimulation via self-adhesive electrode pads; resistive elements in pads provide heat. TENS/EMS and heat are applied separately or in alternating combinations, never simultaneously. Device features two independent output channels; user selects from pre-set or custom programs. Used in home environment by adult patients. Output intensity, pulse width, and frequency are controlled by internal software. Healthcare providers/patients use device to manage muscle pain and improve muscle performance. Benefits include pain relief, muscle relaxation, and revitalization. Device charges via external power supply; no connectivity to other devices.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical testing was performed. Substantial equivalence is supported by non-clinical bench testing, biocompatibility (ISO 10993-1), electrical safety (IEC 60601-1), and EMC (IEC 60601-1-2) testing.
Technological Characteristics
ABS plastic enclosure; battery-powered (3.7V Li-ion); biphasic rectangular waveform; 2 output channels. Complies with AAMI/ANSI/ES60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, IEC 60601-1-11, and IEC 60601-2-10. Software-controlled stimulation parameters. Sterilization: Not applicable.
Indications for Use
Indicated for adults for temporary relief of pain associated with sore/aching muscles in shoulder, waist, back, arms, and legs due to exercise or household work (TENS) and for stimulation of healthy muscles to improve/facilitate muscle performance (EMS).
Regulatory Classification
Identification

Dear Amos Zou:
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.

#### 4. Description of Proposed Device:
The Heat StimPlus(Model:FDES115) is a small battery operated OTC device that provides a combination of TENS/EMS and heat for a warming sensation.
It delivers TENS/EMS only or alternating combinations of TENS/EMS and heat. TENS/EMS and heat are never applied at the same time. The device can connect to a specified external IEC 60601-1 compliant power supply for charging of the internal lithium ion battery. The device complies with AAMI/ ANSI/ES60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2 and IEC 60601-2-10.
FDES 115 feature two independent output channels and four self-adhesive electrode gel pads. They offer a wide range of functions for increasing general well- being, pain relief, maintaining physical fitness, relaxation, muscle revitalization and combating tiredness. For these purpose, the user can either choose from pre-set programs or specify their own to suit the user's individual needs.
Stimulation from FDES115 is intended for application to the following areas: lower back, arms, legs, shoulder or foot. Software controls all controls and indicators. Software controls waveform characteristics.
The Heat StimPlus(Model:FDES115) is intended for:
TENS: This function is designated to be used for temporary relief of pain associated with sore and aching muscles in the shoulder, waist, back, upper extremities (arm) and lower extremities (leg) due to strain from exercise or normal household work activities.
EMS: This function is designed to be used for stimulating healthy muscles in order to improve and facilitate muscle performance.
The accessories include:Type-C cable,an electrode cord / cable attached to electrodes pads and a Pad holder for storage.
The electrode pads allow for stimulation and have resistive elements to provide heat which is powered by the FDES115The electrodes cleared include the electrode patches/pads and electrode garments. which could be packaged together with the 510(k)-cleared devices or packaged separately as the replacement electrodes for 510(k)-cleared devices. The exact percentage of ingredients used in the electrode patch/pad may be withheld as the trade secret.
The device is battery powered and can be connected to an external power supply for charging the internal battery. The battery is lithium ion and is not user serviceable or accessible. The only external connections on the device are the power input and the electrode connector there is no connection to any other device.
The FDES115 is considered - OTC devices.
Patient Population:Adults
#### న్. Intended for Use
