More Information

Not Found

No
The device is a simple disposable filter with no mention of software, algorithms, or any technology beyond basic filtration.

No
The device is a filter intended to prevent cross-contamination between the patient and instruments, not to directly treat a patient's condition.

No
This device is a filter intended to prevent cross-contamination during pulmonary function testing, not to diagnose a medical condition.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "disposable barrier type filter" consisting of a "plastic housing with a filtering efficiency greater than 99%". This describes a physical hardware component, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to prevent cross-contamination between the patient and the spirometers/pulmonary function testing instruments. This is a barrier function, not a diagnostic test performed in vitro (outside the body) on biological samples.
  • Device Description: The device is described as a "disposable barrier type filter." This reinforces its function as a physical barrier, not a diagnostic tool.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any analysis of biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), reagents, or any process that would lead to a diagnosis or provide information about a patient's health status based on in vitro testing.

The device is a medical device, specifically a filter used in conjunction with diagnostic equipment (spirometers), but it is not an IVD itself.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

Prior to testing, First Article Inspections were conducted on all components. In addition, material verification was performed on all components. Cytotoxicity and Bacterial Filtration Efficiency Testing were performed on the device's filter. To show that test results using the Lotus Filter were accurate, Standard Force Vital Capacity Tests were performed using both the Lotus Filter and the predicate device. The results of testing showed that test results using the Lotus Filter were substantially equivalent to the Creative Biomedics Inc. Clear Advantage Filter.

Dear Mr. Barley:

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.
