Intended Use

The SleepWeaver élan Nasal CPAP Mask is intended to provide an interface for Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) or Bi-Level therapy. The SleepWeaver élan Nasal CPAP Mask is intended for single-patient reuse in the home and multi-patient, multi-use in the hospital/institutional environment. This mask is to be used on patients greater than 66 Ibs (30 kg).

Device Description

The SleepWeaver élan Nasal CPAP Mask serves as a mechanism for reliably connecting a patient > 66 lbs (30 kg) diagnosed with sleep apnea to a source of continuous or bi-level positive air pressure needed to maintain an open airway. The nasal mask is placed over a patient's nose and held in place by use of an adjustable elastic headgear. A cloth cushion contacts the patient's face. The mask assembly has an L-shaped tubing swivel connector which is compatible with the industry standard 22 mm air tubing. Air is supplied to the mask by a CPAP device (which can be standard CPAP or a bi-level device). The patient inhales air from the mask and exhales into the mask where continuous airflow from the CPAP device purges the exhaled carbon dioxide from the mask exhalation holes. The SleepWeaver élan can be used in the home environment (single-patient, multi-use) or the institutional environment (multi-patient, multi-use). Cleaning instructions are provided for each environment. Home use calls for washing with warm water and a mild non-abrasive soap. The institutional environment calls for cleaning a validated cleaning agent and a high-level disinfecting agent/process. The mask features a cloth cushion made of polyester fabric with a polyester/lycra/nylon interface material. The mask exhalation feature is incorporated into the cloth cushion. Attached to the cushion is an L-shaped 22-mm tubing swivel connector that can rotate 360°. The tubing connector can be detached by unscrewing the nut off the threaded connector for ease of cleaning and cushion replacement. The cloth headgear is connected to the mask through slots in the cushion wings. The headgear is removable for ease of cleaning and replacement. The SleepWeaver élan Nasal CPAP Mask also offers two optional accessories, the Feather Weight tube and the tether strap. The Feather Weight tube is an 18" plastic home-use only extension tube to improve flexibility at the mask connection point. The tether strap, when used, keeps the tubing from resting on the patient's head while he/she sleeps.

Fixed leakageFlow rate of the exhalation port at 5 and 20 cm H20 (comparable to predicate).Device meets this criterion.
Inadvertent leakMask inadvertent leak should be less than 20 l/min at a pressure of 20 cmH2O.Device meets this criterion.
Device InterfaceWaveform testing on Bi-level machines shall include basic waveform data (comparable to predicate).Device meets this criterion.

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

The provided document does not specify the sample size used for the test set or the data provenance (e.g., country of origin, retrospective/prospective). The submission refers to "Design Verification tests" being performed, but details regarding these tests, including the size and nature of the test set, are not included.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Their Qualifications

This information is not provided in the document. The testing appears to be primarily engineering performance testing rather than clinical or expert-reviewed ground truth assessment.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

The document does not describe any adjudication method, as the tests mentioned are primarily performance-based engineering assessments.

5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study

No MRMC comparative effectiveness study is mentioned in the provided text. The submission focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device through design verification and material changes, not on comparing human reader performance with or without AI assistance.

6. Standalone (Algorithm Only) Performance Study

This device is a physical CPAP mask, not an AI algorithm. Therefore, a standalone (algorithm only) performance study is not applicable and not mentioned. The "performance" assessment refers to engineering specifications like pressure drop and leakage.

7. Type of Ground Truth Used

The ground truth for the performance criteria appears to be based on engineering specifications, industry standards (e.g., ISO 5367, ISO 5356-1), and comparison to the predicate device's established performance ranges. For biocompatibility, the ground truth is established by adherence to ISO 10993 standards (e.g., cytotoxicity, sensitization, irritation tests).

8. Sample Size for the Training Set

As this device is a physical product and not an AI/machine learning algorithm, the concept of a "training set" is not applicable in this context.

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

Similarly, as there is no training set for this type of device, this question is not applicable.

Intended Use×
Operating Principle×
Technology×
Manufacturing Process×

The fundamental scientific technology of the SleepWeaver élan Nasal CPAP Mask is unchanged from the predicate device (K092362). Circadiance, LLC has made the following changes to the previously cleared SleepWeaver Advance Nasal CPAP Mask to be considered for this submission:

  • . Cushion Dimensions - The previously cleared cushion dimensions did not provide ideal performance for certain patient populations. As a result, the SleepWeaver élan Nasal CPAP Mask was designed with these dimensional changes to accommodate this customer base.
  • Swivel Connector The previously cleared connector was a straight, swivel connector . attached to the cushion with a specified medical-grade tape. The SleepWeaver élan Nasal CPAP Mask utilizes an L-shaped swivel connector that functionally allows for the tubing to rotate a full 360°. The SleepWeaver élan Nasal CPAP Mask swivel connector was designed to be attached with a threaded nut for easier disassembly and reassembly for cleaning and cushion replacement.
  • Headgear Dimensions The previously cleared headgear connected to two wings of the . mask and one connection coming down from the forehead. The SleepWeaver élan Nasal

{3}------------------------------------------------

CPAP Mask headgear was designed to remove the forehead connection to avoid pressure being placed on the patient's forehead when using the mask. The SleepWeaver élan Nasal CPAP Mask headgear also features an optional tether strap for positioning of the standard CPAP tube or Feather Weight tube over the patient's head.

  • Material The material of the cushion's elastic interface and the headgear have changed . from the previously cleared design. The SleepWeaver élan Nasal CPAP Mask elastic interface is made of a biocompatible textile used in the clothing industry. The SleepWeaver élan Nasal CPAP Mask headgear is made of a biocompatible textile commonly used for CPAP mask headgear.
  • . Optional Accessories – The previously cleared product was designed without optional accessories. The SleepWeaver élan Nasal CPAP Mask is accompanied by two optional accessories, the Feather Weight tube and the tether strap.

The Feather Weight tube is an 18" plastic extension tube that connects between the SleepWeaver élan Nasal CPAP Mask and standard CPAP tubing. The Feather Weight tube allows the patient to use a tube that reduces the weight and improves the flexibility at the mask connection point.

  • The tether strap is an optional accessory for use with the SleepWeaver élan Nasal CPAP Mask if the patient chooses to position the tubing over his/her head. The tether strap, when used, keeps the tubing from resting on the patient's head while he/she sleeps.
  • . Labeling - The labeling changes for the SleepWeaver élan Nasal CPAP Mask are as follows:
    • Re-branding and product-specific content changes; o
    • o Dimensional changes to match the new packaging configuration;
    • Addition of a quick-start guide; o
    • Modification of cleaning method warning, instructing the user to only use approved o cleaning and disinfecting methods;
    • Feather Weight tube labeling. o
