Determination of Device Safety
Since the magnetic energy that is produced by this device is in the pico-Tesla range, the magnetic energy that is delivered to the body is a fraction of the magnetic energy produced by the earth on a constant basis. There are no other hazards identified with this device. The device is not intended as an implant, it is not purported or represented to be for a use in supporting or sustaining life, and it is not for a use of substantial importance in diagnosing, curing, mitigating, or treating disease, or otherwise preventing impairment of human health.
For more information, please refer to the ‘Non-Significant Risk Determination’ report contained in Appendix A of this clinical trial protocol.
IRB Determination of Non-Significant Risk (NSR) Status
Independent Review Consulting, Inc.’s Institutional Review Board determined the Resonator™ device to be a non-significant risk (NS) device when applied to Parkinson's disease patients for three independent studies, as follows:
- Jacobson Resonator™: Efficacy of the Application of Magnetic Fields to the Treatment of Parkinson’s Disease Pilot Study Protocol, APPLIED MAGNETICS, LLC. Version 1.6, February 20, 2007. IRC # 07021-02.
- Jacobson Resonator™: A double-blind, sham-stimulation controlled study of the application of magnetic fields using the Jacobson Resonator™ for the treatment of Parkinson’s Disease: phase two pilot study protocol. Version 2.5, Oct 2007. IRC# 07102-01
- An open label extension study for subjects previously treated in either pilot I or pilot II studies of the application of magnetic fields using the Resonator™ device for the treatment of Parkinson's disease: Extension pilot study protocol, Version 4.0, March 14, 2008. IRC# 06052-01.
- IRC Resonator™ Device NSR#: DAM-003.
