Intended Use

The device is intended to provide electrical stimulation and neuromuscular reeducation for the purpose of rehabilitation of weak pelvic floor muscles for the treatment of stress, urge and mixed urinary incontinence in women and to maintain urinary continence in women.

Device Story

Levina Pelvic Floor Muscle Stimulator (RS-48) is a non-implantable, home-use device for treating urinary incontinence. System consists of a remote control with 1.77" TFT LCD screen, a stimulator pod, and a reusable, single-patient use vaginal dual-electrode probe. Powered by 3.7V lithium-ion polymer batteries. Remote control sends parameter settings to the stimulator pod, which delivers biphasic, symmetrical electrical stimulation to pelvic floor muscles via the probe to induce Kegel-like contractions. Device strengthens pelvic floor muscles to maintain urinary continence. Operated by the patient in a home environment. Clinical benefit includes rehabilitation of weak muscles and improved continence control.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. No clinical data provided. Testing included biocompatibility (ISO 10993-1), electrical safety (IEC 60601-1), EMC (IEC 60601-1-2), home healthcare environment performance (IEC 60601-1-11), nerve/muscle stimulator safety (IEC 60601-2-10), software verification/validation, and electrical performance verification.

Technological Characteristics

Non-implantable electrical stimulator; biphasic, symmetrical rectangular waveform. Powered by 3.7V Li-ion polymer batteries. Dual-electrode vaginal probe (6cm² electrode area). Frequency 12-50 Hz; pulse width 200-300 µsec. Connectivity: remote control to stimulator pod. Standards: IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, IEC 60601-1-11, IEC 60601-2-10, ISO 10993-1.

Indications for Use

Indicated for women with stress, urge, or mixed urinary incontinence or weak pelvic floor muscles requiring neuromuscular reeducation and rehabilitation.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A nonimplanted electrical continence device is a device that consists of a pair of electrodes on a plug or a pessary that are connected by an electrical cable to a battery-powered pulse source. The plug or pessary is inserted into the rectum or into the vagina and used to stimulate the muscles of the pelvic floor to maintain urinary or fecal continence. When necessary, the plug or pessary may be removed by the user. This device excludes an AC-powered nonimplanted electrical continence device and the powered vaginal muscle stimulator for therapeutic use (§ 884.5940).
