Intended Use
The Medel AG-CLASSIC Nebulization System, which includes the Medel AG-CLASSIC Compressor and the Medel Jet Nebulizer, is intended for the production of medical aerosol for respiratory disorders such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), bronchitis and emphysema for children or adults in the home. The Medel Jet nebulizer is a "single patient reuse" nebulizer and is to be used by one person multiple times. The use of the Medel AG-CLASSIC is for the production of medical aerosols with approved medications and requires the order of a physician for medical use. The AG-CLASSIC is not intended as a life sustaining or life-supporting device.

No
The provided text describes a standard nebulization system and does not mention any AI or ML components or functionalities.

Yes
The device is intended for the production of medical aerosol for respiratory disorders such as asthma, COPD, bronchitis, and emphysema, which are conditions that require therapeutic intervention.

No
Explanation: The device is a nebulization system intended for the production of medical aerosol for treating respiratory disorders, not for diagnosing them.

No

The device description explicitly states it includes a "Medel AG-CLASSIC Compressor" and a "Medel Jet Nebulizer," which are hardware components.

Based on the provided text, 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 Medel AG-CLASSIC Nebulization System is described as a device for producing medical aerosol for respiratory disorders. It delivers medication directly to the patient's respiratory system.
  • Lack of Sample Analysis: The description does not mention the device analyzing any biological samples from the patient. Its function is to deliver a substance (medical aerosol), not to test or analyze a sample.

Therefore, the Medel AG-CLASSIC Nebulization System falls under the category of a therapeutic device, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Dear Mr. O'Brien:

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.

Page 2 - Mr. O'Brien

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act): 21 CFR 1000-1050.

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801), please contact the Office of Compliance at (240) 276-0120. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21CFR Part 807.97).
