Intended Use
The RAPHAEL ventilator is a continuous ventilator designed for ventilation of adult, pediatric, and infant patients weighing between 5 and 200 kg, The RAPHAEL ventilator is intended for use by properly trained personnel under the direct supervision of a licensed physician. The RAPHAEL ventilator is intended for use in a hospital or hospital-type facility, including use at a patient bedside or for intra-facility transport, provided compressed gas is supplied.
Device Description
The RAPHAEL is an microprocessor controlled critical care ventilator system. RAPHAEL supplies mandatory or spontaneous breaths with the preset oxygen concentration to provide continuous ventilation for adult, pediatric, and infant patients weighing between 5 and 200kg. It is powered by AC with a battery backup to protect against power failure or unstable power and to facilitate intrahospital transport. The user interface consists of a LCD-display, a display panel keyboard to open windows, and central rotary dial knob (press-and-turn element) for selecting, setting, and confirming inside the window. The user provides inputs to the RAPHAEL microprocessor system through the keys and the press-and-turn element. RAPHAEL provides audible and visual patient-related, and ventilator-related alarms. Accessories to connect RAPHAEL to the patient airway opening are the same as for GALILBO, found substantially equivalent in the 510(k) file number K001686.

No
The description focuses on standard microprocessor control and user interface elements typical of ventilators, with no mention of AI, ML, or related concepts.

Yes
The device is a ventilator, which is used to provide continuous ventilation to patients, directly supporting and maintaining a vital physiological function (breathing), thus serving a therapeutic purpose.

No

The device is described as a "continuous ventilator designed for ventilation," which provides "mandatory or spontaneous breaths with the preset oxygen concentration to provide continuous ventilation." Its primary function is to deliver respiratory support, not to diagnose medical conditions.

No

The device description explicitly details hardware components such as a microprocessor, LCD display, keyboard, rotary dial knob, AC power with battery backup, and connections for patient airway accessories. This indicates it is a physical medical device with integrated software, not a standalone software-only device.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices intended for use in vitro for the examination of specimens, including blood, tissue, and urine, derived from the human body, to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring or compatibility purposes.
  • RAPHAEL Ventilator Function: The description clearly states the RAPHAEL ventilator is a continuous ventilator designed to provide ventilation to patients. It directly interacts with the patient's respiratory system by supplying air and oxygen.
  • Lack of Specimen Analysis: There is no mention of the device analyzing any biological specimens (blood, tissue, urine, etc.) from the patient. Its function is to support breathing, not to diagnose conditions based on laboratory analysis.

The RAPHAEL ventilator is a life support device that provides mechanical ventilation, which is a different category of medical device than an IVD.
