## Indications for Use

The RT600 is intended for general rehabilitation for: 1. Relaxation of muscle spasms 2. Prevention or retardation of disuse atrophy 3. Increasing local blood circulation 4. Maintaining or increasing range of motion The RT600 is intended for use with a surface electrical stimulation garment for population ages 12 and above. The RT600 is for prescription use only.

## Device Story

RT600 is a Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) upright elliptical ergometer; enables active (FES-evoked muscle contraction) and passive (motor-driven) lower extremity cycling. System components: motorized upright ergometer; FES controller with 6-channel stimulator; up to 5 wireless single-channel stimulators; cutaneous electrodes; Stimwear garment; pulse oximeter interface; remote database interface for therapy settings/logs. Operated by clinicians/technicians in clinical settings. Device uses powered hoist to position user in upright partial body-weight-supported position. Pulse oximeter provides real-time SpO2/pulse monitoring with alarms. Clinicians use stored therapy logs and session data to adjust rehabilitation protocols. Benefits include improved muscle function, circulation, and range of motion for patients with impaired lower extremity movement.

## Clinical Evidence

Clinical validation performed on ten individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI) using the RT600 with five additional RT50 stimulation channels. Non-clinical testing included review of predicate documentation, output characteristic measurements, and system performance verification.

## Technological Characteristics

Upright elliptical ergometer; mains-powered with rechargeable battery for wireless stimulators. 6-channel charge-balanced stimulator (0-140mA). Interface: Pocket PC-based controller with custom software. Connectivity: wireless stimulation channels, pulse oximeter interface, remote database interface. Features: powered hoist for upright positioning, Stimwear garment for lower extremity stimulation. Stimulation targets: quadriceps, hamstrings, gluteals, gastroc, anterior tibialis, abdominals, erector spinae.

## Regulatory Identification

An external functional neuromuscular stimulator is an electrical stimulator that uses external electrodes for stimulating muscles in the leg and ankle of partially paralyzed patients (e.g., after stroke) to provide flexion of the foot and thus improve the patient's gait.

#### (3) Identification of the legally marketed device to which the submitter claims equivalence:

RESTORATIVE THERAPIES, INC. product: "RT300", K090750, a class 2 device

## (4) A description of the device that is the subject of the premarket notification submission.

The RT600 is a Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) upright elliptical ergometer which is composed of:

- a motorized upright ergometer (RTI part number SA211257) ﮯ

## RTI concludes that:

The RT600 has the same intended use as the RT300 predicate device.

The RT600 has the same output characteristics as the predicate device. The RT600 utilizes the same control system as the predicate device including controller, motor controller and drive assembly. The different technological characteristics do not raise new questions of safety and effectiveness.

In conclusion, RTI's clinical and non-clinical testing has demonstrated that the RT600 is as safe and effective as the predicate devices.

Dear Mr. Barriskill:

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. 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.

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 (reporting of medical devicerelated adverse events) (21 CFR 803); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in

{5}------------------------------------------------

the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801), please go to http://www.fda.gov/AboutFDA/CentersOffices/CDRH/CDRHOffices/ucm115809.htm for the Center for Devices and Radiological Health's (CDRH's) Office of Compliance. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21CFR Part 807.97). For questions regarding the reporting of adverse events under the MDR regulation (21 CFR Part 803), please go to

http://www.fda.gov/MedicalDevices/Safety/ReportaProblem/default.htm for the CDRH's Office of Surveillance and Biometrics/Division of Postmarket Surveillance.
