Problems solved by technology

Although the user of the Model PRO-8A can decide which clinical protocol to utilize, GRT Solutions, Inc. is limited to presenting only the usage approved by the FDA in all its literature and / or operation instructions.
Any disassembling of the system immediately voids the warranty.
These can distort the beams by clouding the lenses and may affect clinical performance.
. . can not be sterilized by any liquid or autoclave method

Embodiment Construction

[0013]The Model PRO-8A is a hand-held, non-invasive, pain therapy system which utilizes four nonheating light emitting diodes (LED) consisting of two visible LED's and two infrared LED's in one system, It combines the clinically accepted therapeutic treatment of numerous predicate light therapy systems currently in commercial distribution and 510(k) approved.

[0014]The system consists of a basic hand-held, battery operated, control unit with the four LED's emitting light through a special red acrylic lens which does not absorb any light transmission. The visible LEDs operate at a measured wavelength of 628 nm (±5%) and the infrared LEDs operate at a measured wavelength of 850 nm (±5%), The Model PRO-8A complies with all performance, labeling, and manufacturing standards set forth in 21 CFR.

[0015]The GRT LITE Model PRO-8A and the aforementioned predicate devices emit visible and invisible photonic energy to human tissue. The comparing of the technologies is dependent on the laws of ph...

Abstract

An apparatus for treating musculoskeletal disorders comprises a plurality of light emitting diodes and a control circuit. The control circuit causes the light emitting diodes to pulse at predetermined frequencies of from 0 (continuous) to 125 Hz. The light emitting diodes themselves emit light radiation in a frequency range of 628 nanometers (+ / - 5%) for the visible diodes and 850 nanometers (+ / - 5%) for the infrared diodes.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION[0001]This application claims benefit of priority of U.S. provisional application number 60 / 774,454 filed on Feb. 17, 2006.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]The GRT LITE Model PRO-8 A is substantially equivalent to other pulsed therapeutic light therapy systems currently in commercial distribution. The Model PRO-8A has the same intended use and similar technological characteristics to predicate devices. It combines the clinically accepted therapeutic uses of several previously FDA 510(k) approved light therapy systems currently in commercial distribution into one compact system.[0003]The technological equivalence to the predicate devices is substantiated by the wavelength and power output generated by the Model PRO-8A. The Model PRO-8A will provide the same treatment benefits and regimens for clinical presentations already approved by the Food and Drug Administration for the predicate devices.[0004]The predicate devices the Model PRO-8A establish...
