Intended Use
The Breathe Technologies Ventilator (BT-V2S), with Accessories, is a volume assist ventilator intended to aid adult patients with respiratory insufficiency. It is designed for patients, with or without a tracheostomy, that are capable of spontaneously breathing a minimum tidal volume of 3.5cc/kg of predicted body weight. The device is designed for continuous applications such as patient ambulation, physical therapy, occupational therapy, respiratory therapy, and other rehabilitation efforts in an institutional environment. The device is intended for operation by trained personnel under the direction of a physician.
Device Description
This application is being filed to allow a new breathing circuit for the Breathe Technologies Ventilator (BT-V2). The Ventilator is fundamentally unchanged. The only difference between the predicate and application submissions is that the application requests clearance to market the BT-NT nasal interface with the BT-V2S ventilator. The BT-NT is a nasal mask style patient circuit which attaches to the patients nose. It connects to the BT-V2S ventilator. The BT-NT is approximately 12cm wide and 2cm thick at its thickest point under the patient's nose. These dimensions do not include the 231 cm dual tubing that connects to the Ventilator. It is composed of various plastics.
More Information

No
The summary focuses on the ventilator and a new nasal interface, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities in the device description, intended use, or performance studies.

Yes.
The device is a ventilator intended to aid adult patients with respiratory insufficiency, which directly addresses a health condition.

No

The device is described as a ventilator, which is a therapeutic device used to aid patients with respiratory insufficiency, not a device for diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description explicitly mentions physical components like a nasal mask and tubing made of plastic, which are hardware. The submission is for a new breathing circuit, which is a physical accessory to the ventilator.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is a "volume assist ventilator intended to aid adult patients with respiratory insufficiency." This describes a device that directly interacts with the patient's respiratory system to provide mechanical ventilation.
  • Device Description: The description focuses on the physical components of the ventilator and the nasal mask interface, which are used to deliver air to the patient.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) outside of the body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. IVDs are typically used in laboratories or point-of-care settings for analyzing biological samples.

The device described is a therapeutic device used to support a patient's breathing, not a diagnostic device used to analyze biological samples.

c. Description of Device

This application is being filed to allow a new breathing circuit for the Breathe Technologies Ventilator (BT-V2). The Ventilator is fundamentally unchanged. The only difference between the predicate and application submissions is that the application requests clearance to market the BT-NT nasal interface with the BT-V2S ventilator.

The BT-NT is a nasal mask style patient circuit which attaches to the patients nose. It connects to the BT-V2S ventilator.

The BT-NT is approximately 12cm wide and 2cm thick at its thickest point under the patient's nose. These dimensions do not include the 231 cm dual tubing that connects to the Ventilator. It is composed of various plastics.

d. Intended Use

The Breathe Technologies Ventilator (BT-V2S), with Accessories, is a volume assist ventilator intended to aid adult patients with respiratory insufficiency. It is designed for patients, with or without a tracheostomy, that are capable of spontaneously breathing a minimum tidal volume of 3.5cc/kg of predicted body weight. The device is designed for continuous applications such as patient ambulation, physical therapy, occupational therapy, respiratory therapy, and other rehabilitation efforts in an institutional environment. The device is intended for operation by trained personnel under the direction of a physician.

e. Comparison to Predicate Device

The Breathe Technologies BT-V2S and Accessories is substantially equivalent in Intended Use, Indications for Use, technology, design, materials, physician or patient use, and energy source to the predicate Breathe Technologies BT-V2S and Accessories (K100528).

This application presents the BT-V2S with a nasal interface breathing circuit (BT-NT) in addition to its predicate breathing circuit (BT-TT, aka BT-PC).

The testing described below demonstrates that the differences in the devices do not raise any unresolved issues of safety or efficacy.

Breathe Technologies concludes that the devices are substantially equivalent.

Dear Mr. Coombs:

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. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

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.
