No
The description focuses on mechanical and fluid dynamics for aerosol delivery and does not mention any computational or data-driven components indicative of AI/ML.
Yes
The device is described as being "for inhalation therapy only" and delivers an aerosol for patient use, which fits the definition of a therapeutic device.
No
The device is a nebulizer cap used for inhalation therapy, delivering aerosolized water/saline and oxygen to a patient. Its function is therapeutic, not diagnostic.
No
The device description clearly outlines physical components like a cap, dry device, flow meter, air entrainment dial, and tubing, indicating it is a hardware device, not software-only.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is for "inhalation therapy only" using sterile water or saline. This is a therapeutic application, not a diagnostic one.
- Device Description: The description details how the device creates an aerosol for inhalation. It does not mention any analysis of biological samples or diagnostic procedures.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: The document does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
- Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
- Detecting or measuring substances in biological samples
- Providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening of diseases or conditions
The device is clearly designed to deliver a substance (aerosolized water or saline) to a patient for therapeutic purposes, which falls outside the scope of In Vitro Diagnostics.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Nebulizer cap is for use with Sterile Water or Saline for Inhalation, USP in 500 ml, 1000 ml, and 1500 ml bottles for inhalation therapy only.

Device Description
A nebulizer cap deliver an aerosol of oxygen, air, and either water or saline. It consists of a dry device attached to a bottle of sterile solution. In use, the device attaches to a 50 psi source of oxygen. which is regulated by a flow meter. An air entrainment dial regulates airflow to adjust for desired oxygen concentration. The outlet port attaches to 22 mm corrugated tubing, which acts as a conduit for the aerosol to the patient.

Summary of Performance Studies
All materials used in the fabrication of the Airlife Nebulizer Cap were evaluated through biological qualification safety tests as outlined in ISO 10993 Part-1 "Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices". These materials also were tested in accordance with industry recognized test methods and were found to be acceptable for the intended use.
Performance testing demonstrated that the proposed device is substantially equivalent to the currently marketed Nebulizer Cap with regard to functional characteristics.

Dear Mr. Devine:
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.
