No
The device description explicitly states that the device is mechanical and does not contain any electronics or software.
Yes
The device is intended to provide supplemental oxygen to patients with breathing difficulties, directly addressing a medical condition to improve health.
No
This device is intended to provide supplemental oxygen to patients. It does not perform any diagnostic functions or analyze patient data to determine a medical condition.
No
The device description explicitly states, "The GoLox-93 is a mechanical device and does not contain any electronics or software."
Based on the provided information, the GoLox -93 is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.
Here's why:
- IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body. The intended use and device description clearly state that the GoLox -93 provides supplemental oxygen directly to the patient for breathing. It does not analyze any biological samples.
- The device description focuses on the mechanical and cryogenic aspects of storing and delivering oxygen. There is no mention of reagents, assays, or any components typically associated with in vitro diagnostics.
- The intended use is for providing supplemental oxygen for breathing difficulties. This is a therapeutic intervention, not a diagnostic test.
Therefore, the GoLox -93 falls under the category of a medical device used for respiratory support, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The GoLox-93 is intended to provide supplemental oxygen to patients who have difficulty extracting oxygen from the air that they breathe. The patients would normally receive oxygen via a nasal cannula. It is intended for ambulatory use inside and outside of the home. It is not intended to be life supporting or life sustaining. The device has no contraindications.

Device Description
The GoLox-93 is a double walled vacuum insulated cryogenic vessel designed to hold approximately 1 pound of liquid oxygen at a pressure of 22 psig with heat exchange tubing, relief valves and a pneumatic conserving device housed in a plastic enclosure. Oxygen is stored under low pressure in its liquid state where the pressure is limited by the pressure relief valve. The liquid oxygen is converted to near ambient temperature gaseous oxygen through a system of tubes and warming coils for delivery to patients requiring supplemental oxygen by a single lumen cannula. The device is not intended as life support or life sustaining. The GoLox-93 is a mechanical device and does not contain any electronics or software. The GoLox-93 is designed to be refilled only from Respironics Home Liquefaction Systems.

Substantial Equivalence
The GoLox-93 has the following similarities to the previously cleared predicate device:
- ロ Same intended use.
- ロ Same operating principle.
- D Same technology.
- D Same manufacturing process.
1
The GoLox-93 is a modification to the GoLox USP (K072723) to enable it to be filled with 93% liquid oxygen from the Respironics Home Liquefactions Systems. The GoLox- 93 is identical to the GoLox USP except for the fill connection. The fill connector has changed to allow filling with 93% oxygen from liquefaction systems only and prevents filling with USP oxygen from stationary vessels.
The GoLox USP (K072723) was a modification of the Respironics PLOX (K050414). Comprehensive testing was performed to determine equivalence between the GoLox USP (K072723 and PLOX (K050414). Additional testing provided includes verification that the fill connector mates with liquefaction systems and not with stationary vessels.
Intended Use
The GoLox-93 is intended to provide supplemental oxygen to patients who have difficulty extracting oxygen from the air that they breathe. The patients would normally receive oxygen via a nasal cannula. It is intended for ambulatory use inside and outside of the home. It is not intended to be life supporting or life sustaining. The device has no contraindications.

Dear Ms. Yurko:
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 vour 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.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mcan 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 (Scctions 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 Center for Devices and Radiological Health's (CDRH's) Office of Compliance at (240) 276-0120.
