No
The device is described as a noninvasive accessory used for channeling airflow from a positive airway pressure (PAP) device. Its intended use is therapy (PAP therapy), not diagnosis.

No

The device description clearly states it is an "externally placed mask covering the mouth and the nose of the patient" and is "held in place with an adjustable headgear that straps the mask to the face," indicating it is a physical hardware device.

Based on the provided information, the AirSoft F15 is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to channel airflow from a PAP device to a patient. This is a therapeutic function, not a diagnostic one.
  • Device Description: The description focuses on the physical aspects of the mask and its function in delivering positive pressure. There is no mention of analyzing biological samples or providing diagnostic information.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The document does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing biological specimens (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Detecting or measuring substances in biological samples

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

Performance data is provided to demonstrate that the AirSoft F15 design choices do not impact the fundamental scientific concept nor the therapeutic effects of the new device when compared to the predicate. Both the new mask and the predicate device are designed to operate on the same Full Face Mask ResMed flow generator settings. The pressure-flow characteristics and flow impedance of both devices are identical in the labelled performance range for each device. Comparison with the predicate Ultra Mirage FFM (K023244) CO2 washout performance testing of the AirSoft F15 demonstrates that it is substantially equivalent to the predicate Ultra Mirage FFM (K023244).

Non-Clinical test data:
Extensive testing was performed pre and post cleaning or disinfection of the AirSoft F15 mask to demonstrate that the new device is substantially equivalent to the predicate Quattro Air (K123979) when used in accordance with the supplied instructions for use. Pressure-flow characteristics and through impedance of the new mask were tested for comparison to the predicate devices and the relevant published data to ensure clinicians are able to prescribe the appropriate therapy when using the new device. The CO2 performance (physical and functional dead space) of the new device was also tested and demonstrated substantially equivalent to the predicates. This ensures the new mask design provides adequate venting to flush out the expired CO2. Biocompatibility evaluations according to ISO 10993-1 were also performed, assessing genotoxicity, cytotoxicity, implantation, sensitization, and irritation. Mechanical integrity and performance of the new device were tested to simulated normal use and reasonable abuse scenarios, as well as resisting storage temperature, humidity, and transportation shock & vibration. Validation of cleaning and reuse confirmed that the device can be reused by a single patient (at home) or several patients in the hospital/institutional environment, maintaining intended function after disinfection protocols.

DescriptionThe AirSoft F15 Mask system is an externally placed mask covering
the mouth and the nose of the patient. It provides a seal such that
positive pressure from a positive pressure source is directed to the
patient's nose and/or mouth. It is held in place with an adjustable
headgear that straps the mask to the face.
AirSoft F15 can be cleaned by the patient in the home environment
and reprocessed by professionals in the hospital/institutional
environment.
AirSoft F15 is intended to be used under the conditions and
purposes indicated in the labelling provided with the product.
AirSoft F15 is a prescription device supplied non-sterile.
Intended UseThe AirSoft F15 is a noninvasive accessory used for channeling
airflow (with or without supplemental oxygen) to a patient from a
positive airway pressure (PAP) device such as continuous positive
airway pressure (CPAP) or bilevel system.
The AirSoft F15 is:
• to be used by patients (weighing >66 lb (30 kg)) for whom
positive airway pressure therapy has been prescribed
• intended for single-patient reuse in the home environment
and multipatient reuse in the hospital/institutional
environment.
Intended Use
comparisonComparison with predicate Quattro Air (K123979)
The new device and the predicate Quattro Air mask have identical
intended uses. Both are intended to be used with Positive Air
Pressure therapy equipment, in the same environments for use and
for an identical patient population.
Technological
Characteristics
comparisonComparison with the predicate Quattro Air (K123979)
AirSoft F15 broadly reuses the technological characteristics and design
features of the previously cleared ResMed Quattro Air Full Face Mask
• Both devices have very similar physical properties and operating
principle
• Both masks are offered in various sizes and are provided with
very similar adjustable headgears. They aim to fit the same
patient population
• Both masks incorporate diffuse type vent holes to provide
continuous air leak to flush out and minimize the amount of CO2
re-breathed by the patient. The design of the mask components
is such that the incorporation of these vent-holes does not
interfere with the intended performance of the mask
• Both masks are equipped with a common elbow component,
which can freely rotate through 360 degrees and includes an
anti-asphyxia valve (AAV) to enable the patient to breathe
fresh air in the event that airflow from the flow generator is
impeded
• Both masks connect to a conventional air delivery hose
between the mask and the positive airway-pressure source
via standard conical connectors (ref: ISO 5356-1:2004). The
swivel connector can also rotate freely through 360 degrees
The main differences between the predicate Quattro Air (K123979)
and the new AirSoft F15 mask system are:
• the sealing interface - the predicate device utilizes a
conventional silicone cushion interface whereas the new
AirSoft F15 mask system utilizes an alternate conforming
material
• the design of certain components (e.g. frame) and how
components interface with each other (e.g. retention features,

location and shape of these interfaces)

In addition, the AirSoft F15 Mask system was developed within a risk management process in accordance to ISO 14971:2007, Medical devices - Application of risk management to medical devices. Both devices are designed and manufactured under the same 21 CFR 820 compliant Quality system.

Performance Data Comparison with the predicate Quattro Air (K123979) Performance data is provided to demonstrate that the AirSoft F15 design choices do not impact the fundamental scientific concept nor the therapeutic effects of the new device when compared to the predicate.

Both the new mask and the predicate device are designed to operate on the same Full Face Mask ResMed flow generator settings. The pressure-flow characteristics and flow impedance of both devices are identical in the labelled performance range for each device.

Comparison with the predicate Ultra Mirage FFM (K023244) CO2 washout performance testing of the AirSoft F15 demonstrates that it is substantially equivalent to the predicate Ultra Mirage FFM (K023244).

Non-Clinical test data

Extensive testing was performed pre and post cleaning or disinfection of the AirSoft F15 mask to demonstrate that the new device is substantially equivalent to the predicate Quattro Air (K123979) when used in accordance with the supplied instructions for use.

Pressure-flow characteristics and through impedance of the new mask were tested for comparison to the predicate devices and the relevant published data to ensure clinicians are able to prescribe the appropriate therapy when using the new device.

The CO2 performance (physical and functional dead space) of the new device was also tested and demonstrated substantially equivalent to the predicates. This ensures the new mask design provides adequate venting to flush out the expired CO2.

As was the case with the predicates, the AirSoft F15 materials not previously cleared by FDA were subject to appropriate biocompatibility evaluations according to ISO 10993-1. Materials used the construction of components that:

  • contact the heated humidified gas pathway have been . classified as permanent "external communicating devices" (with tissue/bone/dentin)
  • contact the patient during the therapy have been classified as permanent "skin contact"

As relevant and to support the biocompatibility evaluation of each mask component, following biological effects (selected in accordance with FDA guidance #G95-1) were assessed:

Mechanical integrity and performance of the new device was tested to simulated normal use and reasonable abuse scenarios. The device was also tested to demonstrate that it can withstand the effects of storage temperature, humidity and transportation shock & vibration. Validation of cleaning and reuse was completed to establish that the device can be reused by a single patient (at home), or by several patients in the hospital/institutional environment. Following validated disinfection protocols and after the number of cycles indicated in the published data for the AirSoft F15 mask, it was confirmed that the device continued to function as intended. The device was shown to be substantial equivalent to the predicate devices. Clinical Data Use of Full Face masks with CPAP or Bilevel therapy equipment is proven technology and is well accepted by the medical community. So was the case for the predicate devices, bench testing was sufficient to demonstrate substantial equivalence to the predicate devices. The new AirSoft F15 Mask System is substantially equivalent to the Substantial Equivalence Conclusion nominated predicate devices: it has the same intended use; .
    • it has similar technological and performance characteristics to . the predicates.
