Brief summary
DJO UK Ltd (ENOVIS) is conducting this study to confirm the performance and safety of the Chattanooga Intelect® devices in real world use. This study will record post market clinical data on the use of a number of MDR-CE marked devices that are part of the Chattanooga Intelect® device family to ensure the continued acceptability of the benefit-risk ratio, and to identify possible systematic misuse or off-label use of the devices (Intelect® Mobile 2 Combo, Intelect® Mobile 2 Ultrasound, Intelect® Mobile 2 Electrotherapy (Stim), Intelect® Transport 2 Combo and Intelect® Transport 2 Ultrasound).
Detailed description
This clinical investigation is a post-market, real word, international, multi center, prospective, observational study to confirm the safety and performance of the Chattanooga Intelect® when used in accordance with their approved intended use, to comply with Medical Device Regulation (EU) 2017/745 (MDR) Article 61 and Part B of Annex XI.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Pain reduction | from treatment start to treatment end (about 6 weeks) | Pain reduction measured with Visual Analog Scale (VAS) (in a scale 0-100 mm, where 0 is no pain and 100 is the worst possible pain) at end of treatment compared to pre-treatment (baseline) VAS in the TENS/US group |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Muscle reeducation | from treatment start to treatment end (about 6 weeks) | Improvement in muscle re-education demonstrated by score on a digital dynamometer at the end of treatment compared to baseline in the NMES group |
| Range of motion (ROM) improvement | from treatment start to treatment end (about 6 weeks) | Maintenance or increasing of the ROM demonstrated by a goniometer the end of treatment compared to baseline in the NMES group |
| Clinical status improvement | end of study (about 12 weeks) | Improvement in patient clinical status using the Global Clinical Assessment of improvement questionnaire at the end of the treatment in the NMES group |
| Safety - adverse event rate | through study completion, an average of 15 weeks | Proportion of patient experiencing an adverse event associated with device use |
