No
The device description and performance metrics focus solely on the physical filtration and heat/moisture exchange properties of the breathing system filters. There is no mention of any computational or analytical functions that would suggest the use of AI or ML.
Yes
These devices are designed to reduce cross-contamination and to condition inspired gas for patients undergoing mechanical ventilation, which are therapeutic functions.
No
The device is a breathing system filter and heat and moisture exchanger, designed to reduce cross-contamination and condition breathing gas during mechanical ventilation. It does not perform any diagnostic functions.
No
The device description clearly states the products consist of a "plastic body" and "filter pad," indicating they are physical hardware components, not software.
Based on the provided information, these devices are not In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) devices.
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that these are Breathing System Filters designed to reduce cross-contamination in anesthetic or ventilator breathing systems. They are used as a hygienic measure during ventilation. This is a mechanical function related to filtering air, not a diagnostic test performed on biological samples.
- Device Description: The description details the physical components of the filters (filter pads, plastic body, connectors) and their function in filtering air. There is no mention of analyzing biological samples or providing diagnostic information.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: The document does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
- Analysis of biological specimens (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
- Detection or measurement of analytes (biomarkers, pathogens, etc.)
- Providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or prognosis of a disease or condition.
These devices are classified as medical devices, specifically breathing system filters and heat and moisture exchangers, used in the context of respiratory support. Their function is to physically filter the air and/or condition it, not to perform a diagnostic test.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
CareStar 30 and SafeStar 55 are Breathing System Filters which are designed to reduce possible airborne or liquid-borne cross contamination with micro-organisms and particulate matter via anaesthetic or ventilator breathing systems.
The products may either be used on the patient side or on the device side of the ventilator/ anaesthetic device and are used as a hygienic measure alternatively to decontamination of breathing system and/or breathing gas conveying parts of the ventilator.
TwinStar 55 is a Breathing System Filter and a Heat and Moisture Exchanger. The combination of a filter and a Heat and Moisture Exchanger offer the benefit of both product features. Heat and Moisture Exchanger are used as a conditioning system for mechanically ventilated patients whose upper airways are bypassed. In almost all cases of mechanical ventilation they are a fully valid alternative to heated humidifiers. The products are the only conditioning opportunity of breathing gases in cases of emergency ventilation or during transport since Heated Humidifiers are almost impossible to use.
The products mentioned above are designed for disposable use and should be changed at least every 24 hours.

Device Description
The filters CareStar 30 and SafeStar 55 are designed to reduce possible air or liquid borne cross contamination with microorganisms via anesthetic or ventilator breathing systems. The strategic use of an effective breathing filter protects, bi-directionally, both the patient and equipment.
The filter CareStar 30 contains an electrostatic filter pad while the filter SafeStar 55 incorporates a mechanical pleated filter pad. Both filters consist of a plastic body which incorporates 22 female / 15 male connectors in accordance with EN ISO 5326 and a luer lock connector which may only be used for gas monitoring.
The Filter/HME TwinStar 55 is designed to combine the feature of reducing possible cross contamination with micro-organisms and an ideal heat and moisture return.
The Filter/HME TwinStar 55 consist of a plastic body which incorporates an electrostatic filter pad, 22 female / 15 male connectors in accordance with EN ISO 5326 and a gas luer lock connector which may only be used for gas monitoring.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
The comparison of the data shows similar values for the key performance data. Proposed devices show similar values in filtration efficiency, dead space, resistance to flow and recommended tidal volumes when compared to the legally marketed devices.
It must be pointed out that there is an interdependency regarding filtration efficiency, moisture loss, dead space and resistance to flow. A higher amount of media will result in a higher efficiency in filtration or humidification but with the consequence of having more dead space and higher resistance to flow.

Substantial Equivalence:
The intended use of the breathing circuit filters is comparable to the referenced predicate devices.
The comparison of the data shows similar values for the key performance data. Proposed devices show similar values in filtration efficiency, dead space, resistance to flow and recommended tidal volumes when compared to the legally marketed devices.
It must be pointed out that there is an interdependency regarding filtration efficiency, moisture loss, dead space and resistance to flow. A higher amount of media will result in a higher efficiency in filtration or humidification but with the consequence of having more dead space and higher resistance to flow.
In summary Dräger Medical AG & Co. KG has demonstrated that the proposed devices are safe and effective. They are considered to be substantially equivalent to currently marketed predicate devices which have been previously cleared by the FDA.

Dear Ms. Anderson:
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.
