## Indications for Use

Wandy Self-adhesive Electrode is intended to transmit electrical current to patient skin, for TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) and EMS (Electrical Muscular Stimulation) applications, for OTC (Over-The -Counter) or Prescription use. The Electrode are used for adults only.

## Device Story

Wandy Self-adhesive Electrodes are cutaneous electrodes used as accessories for TENS or EMS devices. The device receives electrical current from a TENS/EMS unit via a lead wire or snap button connection; it then transmits this current to the patient's skin through an integrated conductive gel layer. Used in clinical or home settings by adults; operated by patients or healthcare providers. The device facilitates electrical stimulation therapy for nerve or muscle applications. Benefit includes providing a conductive interface for therapeutic electrical stimulation.

## Clinical Evidence

No clinical data. Substantial equivalence based on bench testing (impedance, wire pull, and adhesiveness) and comparison to predicate devices with established marketing history.

## Technological Characteristics

Cutaneous electrode consisting of a conductive gel layer, snap button or lead wire interface. Designed for TENS/EMS applications. Bench testing performed for impedance, wire pull, and adhesiveness.

## Regulatory Identification

A cutaneous electrode is an electrode that is applied directly to a patient's skin either to record physiological signals (e.g., the electroencephalogram) or to apply electrical stimulation.

## Predicate Devices

- Wandy Self adhesive Neurostimulation electrode ([K002219](/device/K002219.md))
- Wandy Silicon Conductive Rubber Pad ([K002227](/device/K002227.md))
- Jiajian Self- adhesive Electrode ([K090198](/device/K090198.md))

#### Substantial Equivalency

After analyzing both bench and clinical testing data, it is the conclusion of Wandy Self-adhesive Electrodes are substantial equivalent to the predicate device, Wandy Self adhesive Neurostimulation electrode (K002219), Wandy Silicon Conductive Rubber Pad (K002227) and Jiajian Self- adhesive Electrode (K090198).

#### Performance

The Wandy Self-adhesive Neurostimulation Electrode passed self-evaluation tests for Impedance, Wire pull and adhesiveness.

#### Discussion of Clinical Tests Performed:

All design specification are exactly equivalent between new devices (Wandy Self-adhesive Electrodes) and predicate devices (Wandy Self-Adhesive Neurostimulation Electrode and Wandy Silicon Conductive Rubber Pad), except claimed indication for use and proposed labeling. Two predicate devices have thousands of marketing clinical experience and didn't have adverse events occurred in the world.

#### Conclusions:

Wandy Self-adhesive Electrodes have the same intended use and similar technological characteristics as the above predicate devices. Moreover, information contained in this submission supplied demonstrates that any differences in their characteristics do not raise any new questions of safety or effectiveness. Thus, Wandy Self-adhesive Electrodes are substantially equivalent to the predicate devices
