Intended Use
The VPAP ST-A is indicated to provide non-invasive ventilation for patients weighing more than 30 lbs (13kg) or more than 66 lbs (30kg) in iVAPS mode with respiratory insufficiency or obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). The VPAP ST-A is intended for use in the hospital or home.
Device Description
VPAP ST-A System (VPAP ST-A with H5) is similar to the predicate device(s), using a blower based positive pressure system with an integrated heated humidifier and heater controller. The device platform is similar to the S9 VPAP ST (K102513) and contains a Micro-processor controlled blower system that generates controlled positive airway pressure (CPAP) between 4-20 cmHzO as required to maintain an "air splint" for effective treatment of OSA and (Bilevel) pressures between 3-30 cmHzO for the treatment respiratory insufficiency. The system comprises the flow generator, patient tubing, mask (patient interface), alarm functions and integrated humidifier. Therapy modes contained in the VPAP ST-A are CPAP, Spontaneous, Spontaneous/Timed, Timed, PAC and iVAPS. Therapy modes come from the S9 VPAP ST (K102513) and Stellar 150 (K103167). The functional characteristics of the VPAP ST-A system includes all the clinician and user friendly features of the predicate devices.
More Information

No
The summary describes a standard positive pressure ventilation device with microprocessor control, similar to predicate devices. There is no mention of AI or ML technologies.

Yes
The device is intended to provide non-invasive ventilation for patients with respiratory insufficiency or obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), which are medical conditions, and it is explicitly stated to be for effective "treatment" of OSA.

No

The device is described as providing non-invasive ventilation for treatment of respiratory insufficiency or obstructive sleep apnea, and generating controlled positive airway pressure. Its function is therapeutic, not diagnostic.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "blower based positive pressure system with an integrated heated humidifier and heater controller" and includes components like a "flow generator, patient tubing, mask (patient interface)". These are hardware components, not solely software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to provide non-invasive ventilation for patients with respiratory insufficiency or obstructive sleep apnea. This is a therapeutic intervention, not a diagnostic test performed on samples taken from the body.
  • Device Description: The device is described as a blower-based positive pressure system that generates controlled airway pressure. This is a medical device used for treatment, not for analyzing biological samples.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any components or functions related to analyzing biological samples (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) or providing diagnostic information based on such analysis.

IVD devices are specifically designed to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device's function is to support breathing, which is a therapeutic action.

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

Design and Verification activities were performed on the VPAP ST-A System as a result of the risk and design requirements. All bench tests confirmed the product met the predetermined acceptance criteria, this included Pressure. Flow, Pressure Support, Trigger and Cycling, Hypopnea and Apnea tests against the predicate devices using common protocols for both devices. Clinical data for the VPAP ST-A is not required as the predicate devices have been subjected to clinical trial requirements or validated patient simulation models have been used during the bench testing phases.

Dear Mr. Cruz:

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.
