Dear Yvonne Liu:
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.

#### (5) Description/ Design of device:
Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulator is a product that adopts modern electronic science and technology to deliver electric pulses generated to the user's skin through the electrodes.
The proposed models KTR-4031, KTR-4032, KTR-4012, KTR-4015, KTR-4029, KTR-4027, KTR-4026, KTR-4021, KTR-4034, KTR-4036, KTR-4037, KTR-4039 provide a combination of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) and electrical muscle stimulation (EMS). It has the following basic characteristics: 1) 10 modes to satisfy different demands, mode 1-9 is for foot stimulation and mode body is for body stimulation; 2) wonderful electric pulse combination, 0~20 levels can be adjusted and chosen according to personal preference; 3) wireless remote control allows easy control of the device 5) use while seated or reclining; 6) LCD display makes the operation simple and easy.
Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulator is mainly composed of the main unit, remote control and electrode pads. Models KTR-4031, KTR-4032, KTR-4012, KTR-4015 are powered by 3*AA batteries, models KTR-4029, KTR-4027, KTR-4026, KTR-4021, KTR-4034, KTR-4036, KTR-4037, KTR-4039 are powered by 3.7V rechargeable lithium battery. The remote control is powered by 2*AAA batteries. To start therapy, you need to install 3*AA batteries to the main unit and 2*AAA batteries to the remote control or ensure the lithium battery power is sufficient. Then while seated, place both your bare feet onto the footpads of the device or paste the electrode pads onto painful areas and press on/off button to power on. The modes and intensity can be selected according to needs. And the current status is displayed on LCD.
