Intended Use
The TrueBlue Nasal Mask is intended to provide an interface for application of CPAP or bi-level therapy to patients. The mask is for single patient use in the home or multi-patient use in the hospital/institutional environment. The mask is to be used by patients (>66lbs/30kg) for whom CPAP or bi-level therapy has been prescribed.
Device Description
The TrueBlue Nasal Mask is intended to be used with positive airway pressure devices such as CPAP or bi-level systems. It provides a seal such that positive pressure from the positive pressure source is directed into the patient's nose. It is held in place with an adjustable headgear. It may be cleaned by the patient in the home using warm water and a mild liquid dish washing detergent (single patient use) or cleaned by the professional in the hospital/institutional environment through a thermal high-level disinfection process or a chemical high-level disinfection process (multi-patient use). The TrueBlue Nasal Mask consists of a polycarbonate faceplate, with a gel cushion encapsulated in a polyester seal for the face. The gel cushion is attached to the face plate via a silicone spring which allows for a self-adjustment of the gel cushion to achieve proper mask fitting. A polycarbonate elbow is connected to the faceplate. The elbow includes integrated exhalation features and is capable of rotating freely through 360 degrees. The fabric headgear is connected to the mask through slots in the upper part of the frame and clips that attach to the lower part of the frame. The mask is designed in such a way that it can be easily disassembled for cleaning or to replace several of the mask components. The elbow includes an integrated 22mm Lubriloy swivel connector. The fitting is used to connect a conventional air delivery hose between the mask and the positive airway pressure source. The 22mm swivel connector is designed in such a way that it can rotate freely through 360 degrees.
More Information

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the physical components, materials, and mechanical performance of a nasal mask for CPAP/bi-level therapy. There is no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI/ML.

No
The device is a mask that provides an interface for the application of therapy; it does not directly provide therapy itself.

No

This device is a nasal mask intended to deliver CPAP or bi-level therapy, not to diagnose conditions. Its function is to provide an interface for therapy application.

No

The device description clearly outlines physical components such as a faceplate, gel cushion, silicone spring, elbow, headgear, and swivel connector. The performance studies also focus on physical characteristics like intentional leak, pressure drop, CO2 rebreathing, and disinfection efficacy, which are relevant to hardware.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to provide an interface for applying CPAP or bi-level therapy to patients. This is a therapeutic application, not a diagnostic one.
  • Device Description: The description details a physical mask used to deliver air pressure to the nose. It does not involve the examination of specimens derived from the human body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, detecting substances in the body, or providing information for diagnosis.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for the diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment of diseases or conditions. The TrueBlue Nasal Mask's function is purely mechanical and therapeutic.

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

To demonstrate performance and functionality was unaffected as a result of these changes, extensive performance testing, including intentional leak, pressure drop, CO2 rebreathing, and deadspace was completed. Testing was performed pre and post hospital/institutional cleaning and disinfection treatments. Additionally, disinfection efficacy testing was performed to ensure that the mask could be high level disinfected to assure a minimum of 6 log reductions for this mask as tested in accordance with AAMI TIR No. 12-2004, AAMI TIR 30-2003, ASTM E1837-96 (2007), and the "Content and Format of Premarket Notification [510(k)] Submissions for Liquid Chemical Sterilants/High Level Disinfectants" - FDA CDRH, January 3, 2000. All patient contacting or gas path materials used in the mask have been previously cleared by the FDA or tested in accordance with the guidance provided by ISO 10993-1. As required by the standard, the test suite included irritation and sensitization (ISO 10993-10) and cytotoxicity (ISO 10993-5) biocompatibility tests.

Results from this testing demonstrate that the TrueBlue Nasal Mask meets its performance specifications, raises no new issues of safety or effectiveness, and is substantially equivalent to the identified device predicates.

Summary of the Non-Clinical Test Submitted, Referenced or Relied on in the 510(k)

To demonstrate performance and functionality was unaffected as a result of these changes, extensive performance testing, including intentional leak, pressure drop, CO2 rebreathing, and deadspace was completed. Testing was performed pre and post hospital/institutional cleaning and disinfection treatments. Additionally, disinfection efficacy testing was performed to ensure that the mask could be high level disinfected to assure a minimum of 6 log reductions for this mask as tested in accordance with AAMI TIR No. 12-2004, AAMI TIR 30-2003, ASTM E1837-96 (2007), and the "Content and Format of Premarket Notification [510(k)] Submissions for Liquid Chemical Sterilants/High Level Disinfectants" - FDA CDRH, January 3, 2000.
