Intended Use
The Oxygen Concentrators with the Oxygen Filling accessory are indicated to provide supplemental oxygen to patients in the home and to supply pressurized oxygen to fill gas cylinders for the patient's personal ambulatory use. The device is not intended for life support nor does it provide any patient monitoring capabilities.
Device Description
The Profill Q601 series home oxygen filling machines are prescription devices designed for use in home by patients that require supplemental oxygen. It is intended to pressurize oxygen from an oxygen concentrator to fill gas cylinders for the patient's personal ambulatory use. It is not intended for life support nor does it provide any patient monitoring capabilities. The device consists of a compressor module and a portable oxygen cylinder with a specially adapted cylinder fitting. It is compatible with available standard oxygen concentrators as the source of oxygen. The oxygen generated by the oxygen concentrator is inducted into a buffer tank. Then it is split into two streams. The first stream flows to the outlet on the control panel. The patients can use this as their source of supplemental oxygen while they are filling their cylinders. The second stream flows to the compressor where the oxygen is pressurized and filled into the cylinder. The devices are not sold or labeled as sterile
More Information

Not Found

No
The document explicitly states "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML: Not Found" and the device description focuses on mechanical and gas handling processes without mentioning any computational or learning components.

Yes
The device is described as providing supplemental oxygen to patients and filling gas cylinders for their personal ambulatory use, which directly addresses a medical need.

No

Explanation: The device is designed to provide supplemental oxygen and fill oxygen cylinders for patient use, not to diagnose medical conditions or provide patient monitoring.

No

The device description explicitly states it consists of a compressor module and a portable oxygen cylinder, which are hardware components. It also describes the physical process of pressurizing and filling oxygen cylinders.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to provide supplemental oxygen to patients and fill oxygen cylinders for personal ambulatory use. This is a therapeutic and delivery function, not a diagnostic one.
  • Device Description: The description details a system for pressurizing and delivering oxygen. It does not mention any analysis of biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), which is a core characteristic of IVDs.
  • Lack of IVD Keywords: The text does not contain keywords commonly associated with IVDs, such as "in vitro," "diagnostic," "assay," "test," "sample," "analyte," etc.

IVDs are devices used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This oxygen concentrator and filling system does not perform any such analysis.

Intended Use / Indications for Use

The Oxygen Concentrators with the Oxygen Filling accessory are indicated to provide supplemental oxygen to patients in the home and to supply pressurized oxygen to fill gas cylinders for the patient's personal ambulatory use.
