Intended Use
The RespIn11 is intended to provide airway clearance therapy when external manipulation of the thorax is the physician's choice of treatment. Indications for this form of therapy are described by the American Association for Respiratory Care (AARC) in the Clinical Practices Guidelines for Postural Drainage Therapy' (1991). According to AARC guidelines, specific indications for external manipulation of the thorax include evidence or a suggestion of retained secretions, evidence that the patient is having difficulty with the secretion clearance, or presence of atelectasis caused by mucus plugging. In addition, the RespIn11 is also indicated for external manipulation of the thorax to promote airway clearance or improve bronchial drainage for purposes of collecting mucus for diagnostic evaluation.
Device Description
RespIn11 is a medical device developed for an effective therapy of airway obstruction conditions. The device is made up of a jacket connected to a vibration/pulsation generator where the pulsations are obtained by the pressure differences of a multistage blower. These pulsations are transmitted to the subject's chest through an air pressure piston system specially designed and inserted into the front and rear cavities of the vest provided. The compression then release cycle on the chest wall generates a differential air speed in the bronchial airway in the lungs. This produces a shearing effect which pulls the mucus off the bronchial airway walls and to then be moved through mucociliary action into the larger upper airways to then be eliminated naturally through coughing or if necessary by external suction. This respiratory therapy is called HFCWO (High Frequency Chest Wall Oscillation).

No
The device description and performance studies focus on mechanical and pneumatic principles (vibration/pulsation generator, air pressure piston system, HFCWO) and standard electrical/mechanical safety testing. There is no mention of AI, ML, data analysis, or learning algorithms in the provided text.

Yes
The device is described as providing "airway clearance therapy" and "external manipulation of the thorax to promote airway clearance or improve bronchial drainage," which are therapeutic actions. It also describes a mechanism of action (HFCWO) to remove mucus, indicating a direct therapeutic effect.

Yes

The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section states: "In addition, the RespIn11 is also indicated for external manipulation of the thorax to promote airway clearance or improve bronchial drainage for purposes of collecting mucus for diagnostic evaluation." The collection of mucus for diagnostic evaluation indicates a diagnostic purpose.

No

The device description explicitly states it is made up of a jacket connected to a vibration/pulsation generator and a multistage blower, which are hardware components. The performance studies also include testing of hardware aspects like frequency, pressure, pneumatic, and electrical safety.

Based on the provided information, the RespIn11 is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The primary intended use of the RespIn11 is to provide airway clearance therapy through external manipulation of the thorax (High Frequency Chest Wall Oscillation - HFCWO). While it mentions being indicated for collecting mucus for diagnostic evaluation, this is a secondary function and the device itself is not performing a diagnostic test on the mucus. It's facilitating the collection of a sample.
  • Device Description: The device description clearly outlines a mechanical system that applies pressure and vibration to the chest wall to loosen and move mucus. This is a physical therapy, not a diagnostic process that analyzes biological samples.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: IVD devices typically involve the examination of specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue, or mucus) to provide information for diagnostic purposes. The RespIn11 does not perform this type of analysis.

In summary, the RespIn11 is a therapeutic device used to assist in clearing airways and collecting samples, but it does not perform the diagnostic analysis itself.

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. 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.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting (reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801), please go to
