FDA status & indication	FDA ClearedK201975, K221498 Read FDA indication wording “miha bodytec II (MBT II) is a machine with electronic muscle stimulation based on EMS technology. Regarding its use, the device is specifically designed as an addition to other sports and for training muscles. miha bodytec II is intended to stimulate muscles in order to improve or facilitate muscle performance. In addition it is indicated for the following conditions: * Re-educating muscles * Relaxation of muscle spasm * Retarding or preventing disuse muscle atrophy The miha bodytec II electrical impulses allow the triggering of action potentials on motoneurons of motor nerves (excitations). These excitations ofmotoneurons are transmitted to the muscle fibers via the motor endplate where they generate mechanical muscle fiber responses that correspond to muscle work. Depending on the parameters of the electrical impulses (pulse frequency, duration of contraction, duration of rest, total session duration), different types of muscle work can be imposed on the stimulated muscles.”	FDA ClearedK181199 Read FDA indication wording “The Katalyst Mark 1 is intended to stimulate healthy muscles in order to improve or facilitate muscle performance. It is not intended to be used in conjunction with therapy or treatment of medical diseases or medical conditions of any kind. None of the training programs or operational parameters are designed to target injured or ailing muscles and its use on such muscles is contraindicated. The Katalyst Mark 1 is Rx only.”
