Transcranial Magnetic Stimulator

Page Type
Product Code
Definition
A transcranial magnetic stimulator is a device that delivers brief duration, rapidly alternating, or pulsed, magnetic fields to induce electrical currents that are directed at spatially discrete regions of the cerebral cortex for the treatment of major depressive disorder.
Physical State
Hardware (a treatment chair and head support, a console and gantry), a touch screen graphic user interface (GUI), system processor and power modules, a magnetic coil (Coil) and gantry, and Coil interface electronics) and software (to provide user interface, control various subsystems.
Technical Method
A device that delivers brief duration, rapidly alternating, or pulsed, magnetic fields to induce electrical currents that are directed at spatially discrete regions of the cerebral cortex.

CFR § 882.5805 Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation system

§ 882.5805 Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation system.

(a) Identification. A repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation system is an external device that delivers transcranial repetitive pulsed magnetic fields of sufficient magnitude to induce neural action potentials in the prefrontal cortex to treat the symptoms of major depressive disorder without inducing seizure in patients who have failed at least one antidepressant medication and are currently not on any antidepressant therapy.

(b) Classification. Class II (special controls). The special control is FDA's “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation System.” See § 882.1(e) for the availability of this guidance document.
