Intended Use

The GE Datex-Ohmeda Avance Anesthesia System is intended to provide general inhalation anesthesia and ventilatory support to a wide range of patients. The device is intended for volume or pressure control ventilation. The Avance is not suitable for use in a MRI environment.

Device Description

The Datex-Ohmeda Avance Anesthesia System supplies set flows of medical gases to the breathing system using electronic gas mixing. Gas flows are selected by the user using the keypad and rotary controller on the main display unit and then displayed as electronic flow meters on the system display unit. The Avance is equipped with a pneumatic back-up O2 delivery system and traditional flow tube, as well. A large selection of frames, gases, and vaporizers are available to give the user control of the system configuration. The Avance is also available in wall-mount and pendant models. It is available with two or three gases, up to two vaporizer positions and up to three cylinder connections. All models have 02. The Avance comes with up to two optional gases (air, N2O). The Avance systems accept Tec 4, Tec 5, Tec 6, and Tec 7 vaporizers on a Selectatec manifold. Safety features and devices within the Avance are designed to decrease the risk of hypoxic mixtures, agent mixtures and complete power or sudden gas supply failures. The Avance system is available with optional integrated respiratory gas monitoring. When supplied as an option, the integrated respiratory gas monitoring is provided via the Datex-Ohmeda M-Gas Module (M-CAiO and M-CAiOV software revision 3.2 and above K# 001814) which is physically integrated into the Avance, receives electronic power from the Avance and communicates measured values to the Avance for display on the system display unit. The Datex-Ohmeda 7900 Anesthesia Ventilator is used in the Avance Anesthesia System. It is a microprocessor based, electronically controlled, pneumatically driven ventilator that provides patient ventilation during surgical procedures. The 7900 ventilator is equipped with a built-in monitoring system for inspired oxygen, airway pressure and exhaled volume. Sensors in the breathing circuit are used to control and monitor patient ventilation as well as measure inspired oxygen concentration. This allows for the compensation of compression losses, fresh gas contribution and small leakage in the breathing absorber, bellows and system. User setting and microprocessor calculations control breathing patterns. The user interface keeps settings in memory. The user may change settings with a simple and secure setting sequence. A bellows contains breathing gasses to be delivered to the patient. Positive End Expiratory Pressure (PEEP) is regulated electronically. Positive pressure is maintained in the breathing system so that any leakage that occurs is outward. An RS-232 serial digital communications port connects to and communicates with external devices. Ventilator modes for the device include Volume Mode, Pressure Control Mode, Pressure Support with Apnea Backup Mode (Optional), Synchronized Intermittent Mandatory Ventilation (SIMV) Mode (Optional), Pressure Controlled Ventilation with Volume Guarantee (PCV-VG), and Volume Control Ventilation Mode for Cardiac Bypass Mode, Ventilator parameters and measurements are displayed on the system display unit. Several options enable the mounting of the Datex-Ohmeda S/5 Anesthesia Monitor (most recently cleared via K030812). An additional option allows the S/5 AM to be linked to the power supply of the Avance such that when the Avance is turned on, the S/5 AM is also turned on. Additional configurations allow for the mounting of various patient monitors on the top shelf of the Avance.

AI/ML Overview

The provided document, K071142, is a 510(k) summary for the GE Datex-Ohmeda Avance Anesthesia System. This document describes the device, its intended use, and its substantial equivalence to predicate devices, along with compliance to voluntary standards. However, it does not contain information about acceptance criteria or a study proving that the device meets specific performance criteria in the way typically expected for an AI/ML medical device (e.g., sensitivity, specificity, or F1 score with associated confidence intervals).

The document is a submission for an anesthesia system, a traditional medical device, not an AI/ML-driven diagnostic or prognostic tool. Therefore, the concepts of "test set," "ground truth," "experts for ground truth," "adjudication method," "MRMC study," "standalone performance," and "training set" as they relate to AI/ML device performance evaluation are not applicable or present in this 510(k) summary.

Instead, the "acceptance criteria" and "study that proves the device meets the acceptance criteria" for a device like the GE Datex-Ohmeda Avance Anesthesia System are typically related to:

  • Compliance with recognized voluntary standards: This is explicitly stated in the document.
  • Performance specifications: Such as accuracy of gas delivery, ventilator performance (e.g., tidal volume, respiratory rate accuracy), pressure and oxygen monitoring accuracy, and safety features. These are usually evaluated through engineering tests, bench testing, and potentially animal or human factors studies, but the specifics are generally not detailed in a 510(k) summary document itself.
  • Substantial equivalence: Demonstrating that the new device performs as safely and effectively as a legally marketed predicate device.

Given the information available in K071142, I can only extract details related to the voluntary standards compliance, which serves as a form of acceptance criteria for this type of device.
