Intended Use

This ultrasonic nebulizer is intended to spray liquids in aerosol form into gases that are delivered directly to the patient for breathing for use by both the adult and pediatric populations.

Device Story

Portable ultrasonic nebulizer; converts liquid medication into aerosol for inhalation. Device operates via ultrasonic frequency to create mist; powered by AC or battery (rechargeable/automobile adapter). Used in clinical or home settings by adult and pediatric patients. Features include built-in air flow function and LED indicators for intensity, power, and timer status. Healthcare providers use device to administer respiratory therapy; output is aerosolized medication. Benefits include portable, flexible power options for patient convenience during treatment.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical tests were performed; substantial equivalence is supported by bench testing, including electrical safety (IEC 601-1), EMI testing, and a nebulizer characterization study (Nelson Laboratories Data File 57738).

Technological Characteristics

Ultrasonic nebulizer; AC/DC/battery powered. Features integrated air flow, LED status indicators. Particle size range and nebulization rate match predicate. Electrical safety per IEC 601-1; EMI testing per FDA Reviewer Guidance. No software-based control mentioned beyond basic LED signaling.

Indications for Use

Indicated for adult and pediatric populations requiring delivery of aerosolized liquid medication or moisture into the respiratory tract.

Regulatory Classification

{0}------------------------------------------------ K983736 NOV 10 1998 # EXHIBIT #1 PAGE 1 OF 4 # 510(K) SUMMARY This summary of 510(k) safety and effectiveness information is being submitted in accordance with the requirements of SMDA 1990 and 21 CFR §807.92. The assigned 510(k) number is: 1983736 ### Submitter's Identification: 1. Walter Azevedo Hormann Brasamerica Medical Equipment, Inc. 3046 Virginia Street Miami. FL 33133 Tel: (305) 567-0840 Date Summary Prepared: October 20, 1998 ### 2. Name of the Device: ICEL Evolusonic Portable Ultrasonic Nebulizer ### 3. Predicate Device Information: The ICEL Evolusonic Portable Ultrasonic Nebulizer is substantially equivalent to the ICEL Ultrasonic Nebulizer Model PU 12000 Air and PU 12300 Air previously cleared under K#972371. # র্ব . Device Description: The ICEL Evolusonic Portable Ultrasonic Nebulizer has been developed with the patient's necessities in mind for the delivery of spray liquids in aerosol form into gases directly to the patient for breathing, for use by the adult and pediatric populations. The device runs on standard AC power and easily upgrades to battery operation (rechargeable battery or sold separately). {1}------------------------------------------------ EXHIBIT #1 PAGE 2 OF 4 It can be plugged into an electrical outlet using the AC/DC converter, and it can also be plugged directly into an automobile cigarette lighter for use when traveling. #### Intended Use: 5. This ultrasonic nebulizer is intended to spray liquids in aerosol form into gases that are delivered directly to the patient for breathing for use by both the adult and pediatric populations. #### Comparison to Predicate Devices: ട. The two (2) devices are identical with regard to theory of operations, indications for use and basic operating procedures. The primary difference (significant) between the two (2) models is the air flow function – The PU 12300 Air contains the air flow function inside the economatic module, whereas the Evolusonic has the air flow function built-in. The intensity controller is indicated by LED (high or low) lighted, whereas the Evolusonic is indicated by LED flashing. Power indication is indicated by LED for the PU 12300 Air, whereas the Evolusonic is indicated by LED flashing in green color, and , the timer for the PU12300 is indicated by LED high/low flashing, whereas the Evolusonic is indicated by LED flashing in an orange color. Software has not been affected. The electrical requirements, power consumption, ultrasonic operating frequency, particle size range and nebulization rate are identical between both devices. {2}------------------------------------------------ # 7. Discussion of Non-Clinical Tests Performed for Determination of Substantial Equivalence are as follows: - (a) Following the methods described in the November, 1993, edition of the FDA's Reviewer Guidance for Premarket Notification Submission, the following electrical and environmental tests were conducted: - -Duration of operation from battery power - -Electrical power indicators - -Overcurrent protection - -Controls protection - Connector protective compatibility - - -Mechanical safety - Mechanical shock resistance - - Vibration - - -Fluid spill resistance - -Extreme operating and storage temperature/humidity Conclusion: The ICEL ultrasonic nebulizers tested met all relevant requirements of the tests listed in the Reviewer Guidance document, they did not present unsafe conditions. - (b) In addition, in accordance with the Reviewer Guidance document the following EMI testing was also performed: | Reviewer Guidance | Test Description | Test Results | |-------------------|-------------------------------------------------------|--------------| | Para. h7ia | Radiated and<br>Conducted Electro-<br>Magnetic Energy | Passed | | Para. h7ia | Magnetic Fields | Passed | An electrical evaluation in accordance with the Reviewer Guidance document and IEC 601-1 was performed on the power supply of the Reviewer Gulturities and 601-1 was performed on the power supply of the ICEL Nebulizer with the following conclusions: {3}------------------------------------------------ # Exhibit #1 Page 4 of 4 | Reviewer Guidance | Test Description | Test Results | |-------------------|----------------------|--------------| | Para. (h)(4) | Dielectric Withstand | Passed | | Para. (h)(6) | Leakage Current | Passed | - In addition a Nebulizer Characterization Study was performed with (c) passing results. The test was conducted in accordance with the Federal Good Laboratory Practices (21 CFR Part 58 (FDA) or 40 CFR Part 160 (EPA)]. All laboratory data which pertains to this study are recorded in Nelson Laboratories Data File Number 57738. # Discussion of Clinical Tests Performed: 8. No clinical tests were performed and none are submitted with this 510(k) submission. ## ல் Conclusions: Based upon non-clinical testing performed and the results of such testing, we have demonstrated that the ICEL Evolusonic Portable Ultrasonic Nebulizer is as safe and effective and performs as well as our predicate device cited in this 510(k) Summary. {4}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/4/Picture/1 description: The image shows the logo for the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services.
