Intended Use

The 840 Ventilator with Respiratory Mechanics Option is intended to provide continuous ventilation to patients requiring respiratory support. The device is intended for patients with an Ideal Body Weight (IBW) as low as 0.5 kg (with NeoMode option) to adult, and for use in a wide variety of clinical conditions.

The 840 Ventilator with Respiratory Mechanics Options is intended for a wide range of patients ranging from neonate to adult (Vr 5-2500 mL with NeoMode) or from infant to adult (VJ-25-2500 mL).

The 840 Ventilator with Respiratory Mechanics is intended for use in hospital and hospital-type facilities. It may be used during hospital and hospital-type facility transport provided that electrical power and compressed gas are supplied.

Device Description

The Respiratory Mechanics Option enables the 840 Ventilator System to implement three new respiratory maneuvers, and permits the device to calculate and display ten additional measurements for use in the assessment of mechanical pulmonary functions of the patient's airways. The Respiratory Mechanics feature is implemented on the 840 Ventilator through additional functionality in software and by use of the existing User Interface panel. No hardware or firmware changes or additions were required. The 840 Ventilator is a dual-microprocessor controlled, critical care ventilator intended to provide continuous ventilation for neonate to adult (with NeoMode Option) or infant to adult (without NeoMode Option) patients who require either invasive ventilation or non-invasive ventilation (via face mask).

AI/ML Overview

This 510(k) summary (K063650) describes the 840 Ventilator System with Respiratory Mechanics, but it does not contain any information regarding specific acceptance criteria, a study proving device performance against those criteria, or clinical performance data.

The document primarily focuses on:

  • Device Description: What the device is and what new features the "Respiratory Mechanics Option" adds (three new maneuvers, ten additional measurements).
  • Intended Use: The patient population, use environment, and purpose of the device.
  • Determination of Substantial Equivalence: It asserts that the device is substantially equivalent to predicate devices based on intended use, materials, design, and technical characteristics, and that it "does not introduce new questions regarding safety or effectiveness."
  • Regulatory Compliance: It mentions that software design and development followed FDA guidance (May 29, 1998) and internal company requirements.

Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information from the provided text. The document states that "information provided in this Special 510(k) submission provides comparative, predicate device information and describes development procedures that support the determination of substantial equivalence and assertion that the modified device is safe and effective for its intended use." However, these supporting details, including any performance studies or acceptance criteria, are not included in this summary.

In summary, none of the requested points (1-9) can be answered from the provided text.

§ 868.5895 Continuous ventilator.

(a)
Identification. A continuous ventilator (respirator) is a device intended to mechanically control or assist patient breathing by delivering a predetermined percentage of oxygen in the breathing gas. Adult, pediatric, and neonatal ventilators are included in this generic type of device.(b)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).
