More Information

Not Found

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the mechanical and aerosolization properties of a pneumatic nebulizer, with no mention of AI or ML technologies.

Yes
The device is a pneumatic nebulizer designed to aerosolize prescription drugs for inhalation, which is a therapeutic action.

No

Explanation: The device is described as a "handheld, pneumatic nebulizer designed to aerosolize prescription drugs for inhalation by a patient." Its purpose is to deliver medication, not to diagnose a medical condition.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "handheld, pneumatic nebulizer" and is "powered by compressed air," indicating it is a physical hardware device, not software only.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is designed to "aerosolize prescription drugs for inhalation by a patient." This is a therapeutic function, delivering medication directly to the patient's respiratory system.
  • Device Description: The description reinforces this by explaining it's a "handheld small volume nebulizer powered by compressed air to nebulize the I ne Noo S V." This describes a drug delivery system.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: IVD devices are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. The Koo SVN does not perform any such analysis of biological samples.
  • No Mention of Specimen Analysis: The entire document focuses on the delivery of medication and the performance of the nebulizer in terms of particle size and output, not on analyzing biological specimens.

Therefore, the Koo SVN is a medical device used for drug delivery, not an IVD.

Substantial Equivalence Discussion

The above table compares the key features of the proposed Koo SVN nebulizer with the identified predicate and demonstrates that the device can be found to be substantially equivalent.

In summary one can conclude that substantial equivalence is met based upon the following:

The SVN small volume, handheld nebulizer is viewed as substantially equivalent to the predicate device because:

510(k) Summary Page 3 of 4 15-Jul-2011

Indications -

The proposed indications for use are to aerosolize commonly prescribed medications is identical to predicate - K926055 - Miller - Vixone, now owned by Westmed.

Technology -

The design as a jet (gas powered) nebulizer powered by an external compressed gas source is the identical principle of operation as the predicate - K926055 - Miller - Vixone.

Materials -

The materials in the gas and fluid pathway have been tested per ISO 10993 and found to be nonreactive.

In addition evidence to support DEHP free for accessories made of PVC is provided.

Environment of Use -

The proposed environments of use are common and usual for handheld nebulizers and identical to predicate - K926055 - Miller - Vixone.

Patient Population -

The patient population of adult and pediatric (defined by the prescribed medication) patients consistent with the indications for the aerosol medication. With the typical gas flow of 6-8 lpm, this is sufficient to satisfy the expected tidal volume of pediatric population as well as an adult. This is identical to predicate - K926055 - Miller - Vixone.

Comparative Performance -

We performed comparative particle characterization testing via Cascade Impactor and the results demonstrated fequivalent performance to the predicate K926055.

In addition, ye performed testing related to intra- and inter-sample dose and particle variability. simulation life / cleaning validation, environmental and mechanical testing. The results demonstrated that the proposed device either passed or met its performance specifications after each test

All testing gemonstrated that the proposed device is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.

Dear Mr. Dryden:

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.
