Intended Use
The Precision Medical, Inc. Heliox Blender Oxygen System is intended to deliver blended Helium and oxygen in a hospital setting. Oxygen concentrations can be dialed in from 20% to 100% for heliox tank mixtures of 20% oxygen / 80% helium, and 30% to 100% for heliox tank mixtures of 30% oxygen / 70% helium. The blender is not intended as a life supporting device.
Device Description
The Precision Medical, Inc. Heliox/oxygen blender is a restricted medical device intended for use by qualified and trained personnel under the direction of a physician in institutional environments where delivery of Heliox/oxygen mixtures are required.

No
The summary describes a mechanical gas blender with no mention of AI or ML capabilities.

No
The device delivers blended gases for respiration, which is a therapeutic function. However, the "Intended Use" specifically states, "The blender is not intended as a life supporting device," indicating it is not designed to treat, prevent, or diagnose a disease or condition in a primary therapeutic manner.

No
The device is a heliox/oxygen blender used to deliver blended gases in a hospital setting for treatment, not for diagnosing conditions.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "Heliox/oxygen blender," which is a physical hardware device used to mix gases. The summary does not mention any software component as the primary or sole function.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to deliver blended Helium and oxygen to a patient in a hospital setting. This is a therapeutic or supportive function, not a diagnostic one.
  • Device Description: The description reinforces its use in delivering gas mixtures to patients.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) or providing information for the diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment of a disease or condition based on such analysis.

IVD devices are specifically designed to perform tests on samples taken from the human body to provide information for diagnostic purposes. This device's function is to provide a specific gas mixture for respiration.

Predicate Device Equivalence

510K # K053232

Precision Medical, Inc. is claiming substantial to Precision Medical, Inc. oxygen blender same as oxygen blender except air fitting has been replaced with helium male fitting and scale on dial has been altered to add the Helium to the concentration.

Four models will be marketed

    1. Low flow HeliO2 uses 70/30 helium to oxygen mixture
    1. Low Flow HeliO2 uses 80/20 helium to oxygen mixture
    1. Hi Flow HeliO2 uses 70/30 helium to oxygen mixture
    1. Hi Flow HeliO2 uses 80/20 helium to oxygen mixture.

Dear Mr. Parker:

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 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.
