More Information

Not Found

No
The description focuses on standard pulse oximetry functions, user interface enhancements, and alarm features. There is no mention of AI or ML in the intended use, device description, or performance studies.

No
The device is a pulse oximeter used for monitoring, not for treating any condition.

Yes

The device is indicated for continuous or spot check monitoring of functional arterial oxygen saturation (SpO2) and pulse rate, which are physiological parameters used to assess a patient's health status and aid in diagnosis.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "handheld, battery powered pulse oximeter" and mentions hardware components like a "user interface board," "keys," and a "display." This indicates it is a physical hardware device, not software only.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
  • Device Function: The OxiMax NPB-40 handheld pulse oximeter measures functional arterial oxygen saturation (SpO2) and pulse rate non-invasively by placing a sensor on the patient's body (typically a finger, toe, or earlobe). It does not analyze samples taken from the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use describes monitoring physiological parameters directly from the patient.

Therefore, the OxiMax NPB-40 is a non-invasive physiological monitoring device, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Summary of Performance Studies

Performance data includes results from environmental testing, in-house clinical studies and laboratory testing. Environmental testing includes testing for electromagnetic compatibility, electrical safety and reliability.

Clinical and non-clinical laboratory testing was conducted to evaluate oxygen saturation and pulse rate accuracy of the OxiMax NPB-40 during non-motion and motion conditions as well as low perfusion levels.

The performance data demonstrates substantial equivalence between the OxiMax NPB-40 and the legally marketed predicates, the NPB-40 and the N-550 oximeters.

Intended Use

The OxiMax™ NPB-40 handheld pulse oximeter is indicated for continuous or spot check monitoring of functional arterial oxygen saturation (SpO2) and pulse rate of adult, pediatric and neonatal patients in hospital type facilities, transport and mobile environments as well as in the home care environment.

Technological Characteristics

The OxiMax NPB-40 shares the same intended use and indications for use as the predicate devices. The NPB-40 is indicated for spot check use, while the N-550 is intended for continuous use. The NPB-40 four button configuration panel has been redesigned and replaced with a new seven button panel to accommodate the additional OxiMax functionality. The N-550 also incorporates the OxiMax technology. Both the OxiMax NPB-40 and the N-550 have visual and audible alarms with adjustable limits.

Performance Data

Performance data includes results from environmental testing, in-house clinical studies and laboratory testing. Environmental testing includes testing for electromagnetic compatibility, electrical safety and reliability.

Clinical and non-clinical laboratory testing was conducted to evaluate oxygen saturation and pulse rate accuracy of the OxiMax NPB-40 during non-motion and motion conditions as well as low perfusion levels.

The performance data demonstrates substantial equivalence between the OxiMax NPB-40 and the legally marketed predicates, the NPB-40 and the N-550 oximeters.

Conclusion

The technological characteristics and the results of the performance data demonstrate that the OxiMax NPB-40 Handheld Pulse Oximeter is as safe and effective and performs as well or better than the legally marketed predicate devices.

Dear Ms. Harrington:

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.
