Intended Use
The PB 540 Ventilator is indicated for the continuous or intermittent mechanical ventilatory support of patients weighing at least 5 kg who require mechanical ventilation. The ventilator is a restricted medical device intended for use by qualified, trained personnel under the direction of a physician. Specifically, the ventilator is applicable for adult and pediatric patients who require the following general types of ventilatory support, as prescribed by an attending physician: - Positive Pressure ventilation - Assist/Control, SIMV, or CPAP modes of ventilation - Breath types including Volume, Pressure Control and Pressure Support. The ventilator is suitable for use in institutional, home, and transport settings. It is not intended for use as an emergency transport ventilator.
Device Description
The PB 540 Ventilator gas delivery system is composed of a flow generator capable of supplying a sufficient range of flows and pressures that is then controlled by a three-way valve enabling piloting of the expiration valve. The flow generator is a low-inertia micro-turbine driven by a brushless electric motor and the valve is a proportional electronically driven valve. These two actuators are controlled according to specific control algorithms by a microprocessor receiving information from the pressure and flow sensors built into the ventilator.

No
The document explicitly states "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML: Not Found" and describes control algorithms driven by a microprocessor based on sensor data, which is typical for traditional medical device control systems, not necessarily AI/ML.

Yes
The device provides ventilatory support, which directly treats a patient's respiratory function.

No
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section states that the device is for "continuous or intermittent mechanical ventilatory support" and does not mention diagnosis. Its function is to provide respiratory support, not to identify or monitor medical conditions for diagnostic purposes.

No

The device description explicitly details hardware components like a flow generator, micro-turbine, brushless electric motor, three-way valve, proportional electronically driven valve, microprocessor, pressure sensors, and flow sensors, indicating it is a physical device with integrated software, not a software-only device.

No, 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 PB 540 Ventilator is a mechanical device that provides respiratory support to patients. It directly interacts with the patient's respiratory system, not with samples taken from the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it provides "mechanical ventilatory support of patients." This is a therapeutic function, not a diagnostic one.

The description of the device and its function aligns with a life support or therapeutic medical device, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Dear Ms. 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.
