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, the local increase in circulation, and the relief of pain associated with limited mobility and function related to soft tissue injuries (e.g., knee osteoarthritis, chronic myofascial pain, and shoulder, elbow and ankle tendinopathy).
Device Story
Device is a stationary, long-duration ultrasound system for home use; prescribed by healthcare professionals. Inputs: electrical power from lithium battery or AC adapter. Transformation: piezoelectric crystal converts electrical energy into 3 MHz ultrasonic energy; delivered via applicators and coupling patches to generate deep heat in tissues. Output: continuous wave ultrasound (0.65 W single applicator; 1.3 W dual). Operation: patient applies applicators to skin for up to 4 hours. Clinical use: relief of pain, muscle spasms, joint contractures, increased circulation, and improved mobility in soft tissue injuries. Benefit: sustained deep heat therapy for chronic musculoskeletal conditions.
Clinical Evidence
Systematic literature review and meta-analysis using PubMed, EBSCOhost, Academic Search Complete, Google Scholar, and ClinicalTrials.gov. Evaluated Sustained Acoustic Medicine (SAM) effects on musculoskeletal functional outcomes (strength, range of motion), quality of life, pain reduction, and safety. Evidence supports efficacy for deep heat generation, pain relief, and treatment of knee osteoarthritis, tendinopathy, and chronic myofascial pain.
Indicated for home use in patients requiring deep heat therapy for pain relief, muscle spasms, joint contractures, increased local circulation, and pain associated with limited mobility/function from soft tissue injuries including knee osteoarthritis, chronic myofascial pain, and shoulder, elbow, or ankle tendinopathy.
Regulatory Classification
Identification

{4}------------------------------------------------
Applicator. In single Applicator mode, the patient can receive 0.65 W at 3 MHz. In dual Applicator mode, the patient can receive 1.3 W at 3 MHz. The Applicators are applied to the skin with a onetime use Coupling Patches.
The system is intended to apply ultrasonic energy for a long duration (4 hours) to generate deep heat within body tissues. The system is intended for prescription home use after proper instruction from a healthcare professional.
## Predicate Device:
ZetrOZ submits the following information in this Premarket Notification to demonstrate that, for the purposes of FDA's regulation of medical devices, the sam 2.0 Long Duration Ultrasound Device is substantially equivalent in intended use, design principles, and performance to the following predicate device:
Primary Predicate: sam 2.0 Long Duration Ultrasound Device (K191568)
## Performance Testing Summary:
Clinical performance testing was utilized to support the substantial equivalence of this device. A systematic literature review was conducted using PubMed, EBSCOhost, Academic Search Complete, Google Scholar and ClinicalTrials.gov to identify studies evaluating the effects of the subject device, Sustained Acoustic Medicine (SAM), on the musculoskeletal system of humans. This systematic review and meta-analysis aim to summarize the clinical effects of SAM treatment on musculoskeletal injuries functional outcomes (strength and range of motion), quality of life, pain reduction, and safety profile of the intervention. Cumulatively, these studies demonstrate the efficacy of SAM therapy 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. As evidenced by the study data summarized above, the relief of pain associated with limited mobility and function related to the soft tissue injuries that have been clinically validated include knee osteoarthritis, shoulder, elbow and ankle tendinopathy, and chronic myofascial pain.
No non-clinical performance testing was performed to support the expansion of indications.
## Substantial Equivalence:
Overall, the subject device is nearly identical in design and intended use to the primary predicate K191568. The notable difference is in that of the indications. The subject device presents an expansion of indications to better align with the clinical literature on SAM. The SAM is a stationary ultrasound device that is capable of creating (>4℃) into the tissue. The subject device and predicate K191568 are identical with respect to design, technology, and application.
