Device Story
MEGA-TMS is a magnetic stimulator for peripheral nerve conduction studies and evaluation of the peripheral nervous system. Device generates magnetic pulses via an air-core coil, inducing electrical currents in target tissue. Input consists of user-defined stimulation parameters; output is a magnetic field pulse. Device is intended for use by clinicians in diagnostic settings, typically paired with a separate, cleared EMG system (e.g., K102610) to record and evaluate the resulting nerve responses. Clinicians use the EMG output to assess nerve function. The device features a graphical user interface providing coil temperature, intensity, and system status indicators to assist the operator in managing stimulation delivery.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Evidence includes electrical and mechanical safety testing (IEC 60601-1), electromagnetic compatibility (IEC 60601-1-2), software verification and validation, and risk management per ISO 14971. Performance testing included measurements and simulations of electric and magnetic field characteristics, including pulse shape, spatial distribution, strength gradient, linearity, and reliability.
Technological Characteristics
Air-core magnetic stimulator; 2.8 kV max voltage; 2.5 T peak magnetic field; pulse width 80-120 µsec. Features coil temperature/intensity GUI indicators. Compliant with IEC 60601-1 and IEC 60601-1-2. Standalone stimulator unit.
Indications for Use
Indicated for stimulation of peripheral nerves for diagnostic purposes. Contraindicated for patients or users with cardiac demand pacemakers, implanted electronic devices, cochlear implants, or pregnant women.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
An evoked response electrical stimulator is a device used to apply an electrical stimulus to a patient by means of skin electrodes for the purpose of measuring the evoked response.

Dear Dr. Abhishek Datta:
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.

In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
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

#### Performance Testing:
The following performance data were provided in support of the substantial equivalence determination.
#### Safety and EMC
Electrical and mechanical safety and electromagnetic compatibility testing were conducted to demonstrate that the MEGA-TMS device is compliant with IEC 60601-1 (Edition 3.1) and IEC 60601-1-2 (Edition 4).
#### Design
Design verification demonstrated that the device functions as intended. Design validation was demonstrated using software validation testing and literature review. Validation testing confirmed that the device met end-user needs, intended use and evidence of device operation in actual use conditions.
#### Software
Following FDA's Guidance for Industry and Staff, "Guidance for the Content of Premarket Submissions for Software Contained in Medical Devices," software verification and validation was conducted.
#### Risk Management
The potential risks of MEGA-TMS were identified and evaluated in compliance with ISO 14971. All risks were determined to be appropriately mitigated with risk control measures to acceptable residual levels.
# Electric and Magnetic Field Characteristics
For electric field, actual measurements were recorded and simulations performed. For magnetic field, pulse shape information, magnetic field spatial distribution, magnetic field strength gradient, linearity, and reliability information were collected. Bench top measurements of field strength were taken at coil surface and 20 mm above to determine spatial distribution of magnetic field.
#### Conclusion:
The non-clinical data demonstrates that the differences in technological characteristics between the subject device and predicate devices do not raise new or different questions of safety and effectiveness and is therefore comparable to the predicate devices that are currently marketed for the same intended use.
