Intended Use
The Disposable Pressure Manometer will be used to provide visual indication of a patient's airway pressure during ventilation. It may be attached to the manometer port or proximal port on ventilation devices such as resuscitation bags, hyperinflation bags, CPAP Mask or CPAP Circuits.
Device Description
The VSI disposable pressure manometer is a means of providing visual indication of patient airway pressure during ventilation. The device consists of: A flexible nipple for attachment to a sampling/pressure port, Clear polycarbonate (PC) housing with a printed pressure scale, PC float with indication and a double ended stainless steel spring.
More Information

Not Found

No
The device description and intended use clearly describe a purely mechanical device for visual pressure indication, with no mention of computational processing, algorithms, or learning capabilities.

No
The device measures airway pressure for ventilation, it does not directly treat or prevent a medical condition.

No

The device provides visual indication of airway pressure during ventilation, which is a measurement used for monitoring, not for diagnosing a disease or condition.

No

The device description explicitly details physical components like a flexible nipple, polycarbonate housing, float, and stainless steel spring, indicating it is a hardware device, not software-only.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to "provide visual indication of a patient's airway pressure during ventilation." This is a measurement of a physiological parameter (pressure within the airway) directly on the patient, not an analysis of a sample taken from the body (like blood, urine, or tissue).
  • Device Description: The device components (nipple, housing, float, spring) are designed for mechanical pressure measurement and display, not for analyzing biological samples.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, reagents, or any process typically associated with in vitro diagnostics.

IVD devices are specifically designed to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device measures a physical parameter directly related to the patient's respiratory system.

Dear Mr. Najjar:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies.

Page 2 - Mr. Najjar

You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801 and additionally 21 CFR Part 809.10 for in vitro diagnostic devices), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4646. Additionally, for questions on the promotion and advertising of vour device, please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4639.
