Intended Use
The INOmax DS delivery system delivers INOmax® (nitric oxide for inhalation) therapy gas into the inspiratory limb of the patient breathing circuit in a way that provides a constant concentration of nitric oxide (NO), as set by the user, to the patient throughout the inspired breath. It uses a specially designed injector module, which enables tracking of the ventilator waveforms and the delivery of a synchronized and proportional dose of NO. It may be used with most ventilators. The INOmax DS provides continuous integrated monitoring of inspired O2, NO2, and NO, and a comprehensive alarm system. The INOmax DS incorporates a battery that provides up to 6 hours of uninterrupted NO delivery in the absence of an external power source. The INOmax DS includes a backup NO delivery capability that provides a fixed flow of 250 mL/min of NO which along with user supplied 10 L/min of oxygen provides 20 ppm in the gas flow to a patients breathing circuit. It may also use the INOblender for backup. The target patient population is controlled by the drug labeling for INOmax and is currently neonates. The primary targeted clinical setting is the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) and secondary targeted clinical setting is the transport of neonates.
Device Description
The INOmax DS (Delivery System) provides a constant dose of INOmax (nitric oxide) therapy gas into the inspiratory limb of the ventilator circuit. The INOmax DS (Delivery System) uses a "dual-channel" design to ensure the safe delivery of INOmax. The first channel has the delivery CPU, the flow controller and the injector module to ensure the accurate delivery of NO. The second channel is the monitoring system, which includes a separate monitor CPU, the gas cells (NO, NO2 and O2 cells) and the user interface including the display and alarms. The dual-channel approach to delivery and monitoring permits INOmax delivery independent of monitoring but also allows the monitoring system to shutdown INOmax delivery if it detects a fault in the delivery system such that the NO concentration could become greater than 100 ppm. INOmax drug is stored as a gas mixture of NO/N2 in an aluminum cylinder at a nominal pressure of 2200 psig. The cylinder is attached to a high pressure regulator which incorporates a pressure gauge that indicates cylinder pressure when the cylinder valve is open. The cylinder requlator is attached via tubing to the INOmax DS (Delivery System) using one of the two NO/NO2 quick connect inlets on the back of the machine. The INOmax enters the back of the INOmax DS (Delivery System), passes through a filter, then a safety shutoff valve, which is open under normal operations. An injector module is placed in the ventilator gas flow between the ventilator inspiratory outlet and the humidifier. Based on the ventilator flow, the INOmax cylinder concentration and set INOmax dose, the proportional solenoid delivers INOmax into the ventilator circuit via the injector module. This allows the INOmax DS (Delivery Svstem) to deliver a constant dose of INOmax regardless of the ventilator flow pattern or breath rate. A flow sensor inside the INOmax DS (Delivery System) also monitors the NO flow out of the machine. A check valve is included prior to the INOmax DS (Delivery System) drug outlet to prevent pressure effects from the ventilator breathing circuit interfering with the NO flow sensor reading. The INOmax DS (Delivery System) gas monitoring system provides monitored values for inspired NO, NO2, and O2 The sample gas is withdrawn from the breathing circuit and goes through a water trap to remove excess water, a zero valve, a sample pump and finally a sample flow sensor to the gas monitoring cells. The zero valve allows the gas cells to be zeroed (during low calibration) without having to disconnect the sample line from the breathing circuit. The pump and sample flow sensor ensure a constant sample gas flow rate is maintained to the monitoring cells. The gas monitoring cells are electrochemical; they are specific to each gas and provide an electronic signal, which is proportional to the concentration of gas present. If the delivery system does go into shutdown, the INOmax DS (Delivery System) has an integrated backup function which provides a fixed flow of INOmax (0.25L/min) into the injector module using a pneumatic on/off switch and a restrictor built into the delivery side of the system. This fixed flow of INOmax will provide 20 ppm of NO when the continuous ventilator gas flow is 10 L/min. The backup is only for short term use until a replacement delivery system can be obtained. An alarm will warn the user if the backup system is turned on while the main delivery system is in use for INOmax delivery.
More Information

No
The summary describes a device that uses sensors, flow control, and a dual-channel system for monitoring and delivery, but there is no mention of AI or ML algorithms for decision-making, pattern recognition, or adaptive control. The system appears to be based on pre-programmed logic and sensor feedback.

Yes

The device delivers nitric oxide therapy gas to patients, which is a medical treatment. Therefore, it is a therapeutic device.

No

The device is a delivery system for administering nitric oxide therapy gas, not for diagnosing medical conditions. While it monitors gas concentrations, this monitoring is for ensuring proper therapy delivery, not for diagnostic purposes.

No

The device description clearly outlines numerous hardware components including a delivery CPU, flow controller, injector module, monitoring system with a separate monitor CPU, gas cells, user interface with display and alarms, battery, high pressure regulator, tubing, quick connect inlets, filter, safety shutoff valve, proportional solenoid, flow sensor, check valve, water trap, zero valve, sample pump, sample flow sensor, and electrochemical gas monitoring cells. While it includes software, it is an integral part of a complex hardware system for gas delivery and monitoring.

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 INOmax DS delivery system delivers a therapeutic gas (nitric oxide) into the patient's breathing circuit. It also monitors gases within the breathing circuit (inspired O2, NO2, and NO).
  • Lack of Sample Analysis: The device does not analyze samples taken from the patient's body. Its monitoring function is focused on the gas composition being delivered and inhaled, not on biological samples.

Therefore, the INOmax DS delivery system is a therapeutic and monitoring device used in a clinical setting, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

The only differences are that a newly validated neonatal ventilator mode has been qualified with the INOmax DS (Delivery System) and minor software changes were made in order to accommodate very low, non-adjustable bias flow rates, to respond to user feedback and to improve gas cell ambient pressure (altitude) compensation and the detection of incorrect calibration gas. These differences do not present any new issues of safety or effectiveness. This device is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.
