Intended Use
The Instrumentation Industries, Inc. RTC 24-VP MDI Adapter is an actuator for intermittent delivery of prescribed aerosol medication dispensed in cylindrical-style metered dose inhalers. The RTC 24-VP MDI Adapter is intended for use only when connected to ventilator tubing or tracheal tubes. The RTC 24-VP MDI Adapter is intended to be prescribed for any patient who is ventilator-dependent and to whom a metered dose inhaler has been prescribed. The expected clinical environment for the RTC 24-VP MDI Adapter is Critical Care and/or long term or short term ventilation. The RTC 24-VP MDI Adapter is intended for single patient reuse. This device is intended for sale by or on the order of a physician.

More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a mechanical adapter for metered dose inhalers and makes no mention of AI or ML technology.

Yes
The device is intended to deliver prescribed aerosol medication to patients, which is a therapeutic intervention.

No

The device is described as an "actuator for intermittent delivery of prescribed aerosol medication." Its purpose is to deliver medication, not to diagnose a condition.

No

The device description clearly states it is an "actuator" and describes physical components and their interaction with ventilator tubing and metered dose inhalers, indicating a hardware device. There is no mention of software as the primary or sole component.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
  • Device Function: The description clearly states the device is an "actuator for intermittent delivery of prescribed aerosol medication dispensed in cylindrical-style metered dose inhalers." It's a mechanical device used to administer medication, not to perform tests on biological samples.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is to deliver medication to ventilator-dependent patients, not to diagnose or monitor a condition through in vitro testing.

The device is a medical device, but it falls under a different category than IVDs.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

When a range of flow rates is used to ventilate air through both the new RTC 24-VP MDI adapter and the original RTC 24-V MDI adapter, very little difference is seen in peak circuit back pressure. The decreased inlet port size on the RTC 24-VP has no significant impact on the rate of flow through the device or on the circuit back pressure.
