Indications for Use
The PHYSIQ device is intended in EMS mode for: Prevention or retardation of disuse atrophy Maintaining or increasing range of motion Muscle re-education Relaxation of muscle spasms Increasing local blood circulation Immediate postsurgical stimulation of calf muscles to prevent venous thrombosis and in TENS mode for: Symptomatic relief and management of chronic, intractable pain Post-surgical acute pain Post-traumatic acute pain
Device Story
PHYSIQ is a prescription-use powered muscle stimulator for clinical settings. It utilizes four handpieces, each with two electrodes, to deliver electrical energy to the patient's skin. The device operates in two modes: EMS (Electrical Muscle Stimulation) to cause muscle contraction for therapeutic purposes like atrophy prevention and spasm relaxation; and TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) to block pain signals to the brain. The operator controls treatment parameters, including intensity (1-50) and duration, via an LCD touch screen. The system includes an AC/DC power supply, CPU controller, and handpieces. It is used on areas such as the back, abdomen, legs, and arms. The device provides non-invasive muscle stimulation and pain management, benefiting patients by aiding recovery and reducing pain.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Bench testing only. Performance verified through validation of output waveforms, basic unit characteristics, and output specifications. Biocompatibility of handpieces confirmed via cytotoxicity, skin irritation, and delayed hypersensitivity testing. Compliance with AAMI/ANSI ES60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, IEC 60601-2-10, and IEC 60601-1-6 standards demonstrated.
Technological Characteristics
Console-based system with 4 handpieces; Delrin housing. Delivers symmetrical biphasic rectangular electrical pulses. Powered by AC/DC supply (115-230VAC). Features LCD touch screen, CPU controller, and patient override. Connectivity: Standalone. Safety: Type BF electrical type, automatic overload/no-load trips, and shut-off. Complies with AAMI/ANSI ES60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, IEC 60601-2-10, and IEC 60601-1-6.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients requiring muscle stimulation for atrophy prevention, range of motion maintenance, muscle re-education, spasm relaxation, circulation improvement, or post-surgical calf stimulation; and for patients requiring pain management for chronic, intractable, post-surgical, or post-traumatic acute pain.
Regulatory Classification
Identification

In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
{1}------------------------------------------------
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 devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/combination-products/guidance-regulatory-information/postmarketing-safety-reportingcombination-products); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (OS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR Part 807.97). For questions regarding the reporting of adverse events under the MDR regulation (21 CFR Part 803), please go to https://www.fda.gov/medical-device-safety/medical-device-reportingmdr-how-report-medical-device-problems.

### Predicate Devices:
The InMode System with Tone Applicator (K192249)
### Device Description:
The PHYSIQ is a device provided with 4 handpieces by 2 electrodes each intended to employ EMS (Electrical Muscle Stimulation) and TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) technologies for various medical applications.
{4}------------------------------------------------
The PhysiO consists of :
- an AC/DC power supply unit,
- EMS/TENS driving electronic board
- CPU controller; ●
- user interface with LCD touch screen, . ●
- 4 EMS/TENS handpieces with interconnecting cables ●
EMS or TENS treatment is enabled at the same time on all 4 handpieces. The operator can choose how many handpieces to use and leave the unused ones in the proper holder.
Through the handpieces the electrical energy is delivered to the patient, which repeatedly contracts muscles by passing electrical currents through electrodes on the affected body area.
During TENS treatments, PHYSIQ generates electrical pulses and transmits it to the electrodes which are in contact with the patient's skin. Consequently, the electrical pulses would then pass through the skin to the underlying peripheral nerves to aid in the blocking of pain signals traveling to the brain.
During EMS treatments, PHYSIQ generates electrical pulses and transmits it to the electrodes in contact with the patient skin, causing the muscle to expand and contract. It is used to relax muscle spasms, prevent or retard atrophy, maintain or increase range of motion, increase local blood circulation, re-educate muscle and provide immediate post-surgical stimulation of calf muscle to prevent venous thrombosis.
Handpieces are directly applied on the area to be treated, such as-upper and lower back, abdomen, legs and arms.
The user interface allows to fully control the treatment parameters. The operator can manage Electro Muscle Stimulation (EMS) or Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) (OFF or ON from 1 to 50, with selection step of 1).
Treatment time can be changed regardless of the suggested one.
# Intended Use:
The PHYSIQ device is intended in EMS mode for:
- Prevention or retardation of disuse atrophy
- Maintaining or increasing range of motion ●
- . Muscle re-education
- . Relaxation of muscle spasms
- . Increasing local blood circulation
