## Indications for Use

The 'MLS Family' Diode Laser is intended to provide topical heating for the purpose of elevating tissue temperature for the temporary relief of muscle and joint pain and stiffness, arthritis pain, or muscle spasm, the temporary increase in local blood circulation and/or promoting relaxation of muscle.

## Device Story

The 'MLS Family' Diode Laser (models Mix5, M1, M6) is a therapeutic infrared lamp system. It emits laser energy at 808 nm and 905 nm wavelengths to provide topical heating. The device is operated by a user via a selectable controller. It is intended for clinical use to elevate tissue temperature, thereby relieving pain and stiffness associated with muscles, joints, and arthritis, while also promoting local blood circulation and muscle relaxation. The device operates on 230 VAC power.

## Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided; bench testing only.

## Technological Characteristics

Diode laser system emitting 808 nm and 905 nm wavelengths. Powered by 230 VAC, 20A, 50-60 Hz, single phase. User-selectable controller for laser emission activation. Classified as an infrared lamp under 21 CFR 890.5500.

## Regulatory Identification

An infrared lamp is a device intended for medical purposes that emits energy at infrared frequencies (approximately 700 nanometers to 50,000 nanometers) to provide topical heating.

## Special Controls

*Classification.* Class II (special controls). The device, when it is an infrared therapeutic heating lamp, is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 890.9.

## Predicate Devices

- MLT-1000 IR Laser System
