Intended Use
The VPAP III™ is intended for the treatment of Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) in adult patients. The optional integrated humidifier (HUMIDAIRE® 2I™) is indicated for the humidification and warming of air from the VPAP III™ flow generator. The VPAP III™ flow generator and HUMIDAIRE 2I™ are for home and hospital use.
Device Description
The VPAP III is a microprocessor-controlled blower-based positive airway pressure flow generator for the treatment of OSA. The device is based on the S7 Elite with an additional therapy mode (bi-level), derived from the VPAP II ST, to provide pressure relief during exhalation. The flow generator is used in combination with patient tubing and a mask. For additional humidification, an optional integrated humidifier, the HUMIDAIRE 2i, is compatible with the flow generator.

No
The document describes a microprocessor-controlled blower-based device with a bi-level therapy mode, but there is no mention of AI or ML in the intended use, device description, or performance studies. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" section explicitly states "Not Found".

Yes
The device is described as "intended for the treatment of Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) in adult patients" and is a "positive airway pressure flow generator for the treatment of OSA", indicating its therapeutic purpose.

No

The device is described as a treatment device for Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA), not a diagnostic one. It generates positive airway pressure to treat the condition.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "microprocessor-controlled blower-based positive airway pressure flow generator," indicating it is a hardware device with integrated software, not a software-only device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for the treatment of Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) by providing positive airway pressure. This is a therapeutic intervention, not a diagnostic test performed on in vitro samples.
  • Device Description: The device is a flow generator that provides air pressure. It does not involve the analysis of biological samples (like blood, urine, or tissue) outside of the body, which is the hallmark of an IVD.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing samples, detecting biomarkers, or providing diagnostic information based on in vitro testing.

The device is a medical device used for therapy, specifically for respiratory support in patients with OSA.

Dear Mr. Kotter:

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.
