Intended Use
The Lifestyle Circulatory Enhancer (CE) is indicated for the temporary increase in blood circulation as prescribed by a physician or licensed practitioner. The Lifestyle CE may benefit people who suffer from states of poor circulation and low blood flow, including those individuals who suffer from orthostatic hypotension symptoms, such as lightheadedness, when moving from a sitting or reclining position to a standing position.
Device Description
The Lifestyle Circulatory Enhancer (CE) device is a non-sterile, single user device that is used within the external airway channel. Inspiration through the Lifestyle CE device provides temporary circulatory enhancement. Temporary circulation enhancement increases blood pressure, which has a positive effect on the symptoms of orthostatic hypotension. The technology providing temporary circulatory enhancement is the same as in the predicate ResQPOD CE devices.
More Information

Not Found

No
The document explicitly states "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML: Not Found" and the device description focuses on a mechanical mechanism for circulatory enhancement, not data-driven algorithms.

Yes.
The device is described as temporarily increasing blood circulation to alleviate symptoms of poor circulation and low blood flow, which are therapeutic claims.

No

The device is described as enhancing circulation and blood pressure for symptomatic relief, not for diagnosing any condition.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "device that is used within the external airway channel" and that "Inspiration through the Lifestyle CE device provides temporary circulatory enhancement." This indicates a physical device that the user interacts with through breathing, not a software-only application.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • The Lifestyle Circulatory Enhancer (CE) is a device used within the external airway channel to directly affect the patient's physiology (blood circulation and pressure). It does not analyze samples from the body.

The description clearly indicates it's a device for direct patient use to improve circulation, not a diagnostic tool that analyzes biological samples.

Dear Mr. Syring:

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.
