Intended Use

The Pneupac VR1 Airmix is a hand-held, portable, time cycled, gas powered, flow generator ventilatory resuscitator that is suitable for emergency and transport use and will operate safely in an MRI environment up to 3 Tesla. It is designed for use by qualified medical caregivers, paramedics and other trained personnel for the following conditions: Pneupac VR1 Airmix Ventilatory resuscitator intended for use on adults and children above a bodyweight of 22 lb (10 kg) with either respiratory distress/ insufficiency or no respiratory function and including a control for providing oxygen concentrations of either 100% or 50% nominal.

Device Story

Pneupac VR1 Airmix is a gas-powered, time-cycled, portable ventilatory resuscitator. Device operates solely on supply gas pressure; no electrical power required. Input: pressurized gas source. Transformation: pneumatic control module regulates tidal volume and frequency (150ml/25bpm to 1050ml/10bpm) with constant 1:2 I:E ratio. Output: controlled ventilation via mask, endotracheal tube, or laryngeal mask airway. Modes: automatic or manual (via lever/push button). Features: demand breathing, spontaneous breathing during power failure, audible pressure relief alarm, and selectable 50% or 100% oxygen concentration. Used by medical personnel/paramedics in hospitals, ambulances, and transport. Healthcare providers use output to manage patient respiration; device supports patients with respiratory failure or distress. Benefits include portable, MRI-compatible life support in emergency settings.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Performance testing conducted per ASTM F 920-93, MIL-STD 810F, RTCA DO160D, and EN standards. Testing confirmed compliance with functional requirements, including environmental (temperature, humidity, vibration, altitude), mechanical (shock, impact, rigidity), and MRI compatibility (up to 3 Tesla). No clinical data presented.

Technological Characteristics

Gas-powered, time-cycled flow generator. Materials: unspecified medical-grade components. Sensing/Actuation: pneumatic pressure-driven. Dimensions: 0.455 kg. Connectivity: none (standalone). Sterilization: reusable components (cleaning/sterilization protocols provided). MRI compatibility: up to 3 Tesla. Software: none (purely pneumatic).

Indications for Use

Indicated for adults and children >10 kg (22 lb) with respiratory distress, insufficiency, or apnea. For use by qualified medical caregivers, paramedics, and trained personnel in emergency and transport settings, including MRI environments up to 3 Tesla.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

The Pneupac VR1 Airmix allows two modes of ventilation, automatic and manual. In automatic mode the device cycles in accordance with the setting of the single tidal volume/frequency control that changes the tidal volume and frequency dependently whilst maintaining a constant I:E ratio of 1:2. In manual mode, preset breaths, singly or in a controlled breathing pattern may be selected by use of an omni-directional lever or push button. The tidal volume and rate possible are limited by the position of the single tidal volume/frequency control. The Pneupac VR1 Airmix includes a control for providing oxygen concentrations of either 100% or 50% nominal. The Pneupac VR1 Airmix uses the same technology as existing legally marketed devices and depends solely on the pressure of the supply gas for its operation. The Pneupac VR1 Airmix incorporates a pneumatic high-pressure audible alarm which dumps excess patient pressure according to the in-built relief pressure (40 cmH2O standard, 60cmH2O optional) which operates in an identical manner to the predicate devices. The Pneupac VR1 Airmix consists of a hand-held control module connected to the patient at its outlet via a mask, endotracheal tube or laryngeal mask airway and is used with various patient circuits and accessories comprising the following items; - User replaceable patient valve . - . Oxygen input gas hose assemblies - Breathing filter . - Biological breathing filter kit (optional for contaminated atmospheres) . - Masks, airways and airway adjuncts . - Manual suction . - Oxygen therapy kits . - Oxygen cylinders and regulators ● - Carrying bag . - Breathing circuits . - PEEP accessories Page 16 Smiths Medical International Limited - a part of Smiths Group plc.
