The summary explicitly states "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML: Not Found" and describes the use of "Algorithms" which is a general term and does not specifically indicate AI/ML. The performance studies are based on standard bench tests and comparison to a predicate device, not on training or testing of an AI/ML model.
No
The device is described as a "diagnostic spirometer for the measurement of patient breath flow and volume" and is intended for "performing basic lung function tests", indicating it is used for diagnosis and monitoring, not for providing therapy.
Yes
A spirometer is used to diagnose lung conditions. The device description explicitly states, "The Cohero Health SpiroThor Spirometer is a hand-held portable diagnostic spirometer."
No
The device description explicitly states it consists of a "compact main unit and an ultrasonic flowmeter sensor" and is a "hand-held portable diagnostic spirometer," indicating it includes hardware components beyond just software.
Based on the provided information, the SpiroThor spirometer is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD).
Here's why:
- IVDs analyze samples taken from the human body. The SpiroThor measures breath flow and volume directly from the patient's respiratory system. It does not analyze a biological sample like blood, urine, or tissue.
- The intended use describes a functional measurement. The device is used to perform "basic lung function tests," which are physiological measurements, not laboratory analyses of biological samples.
- The device description focuses on physical measurement. It describes an ultrasonic sensor measuring flow and algorithms determining values based on this flow measurement. This is a physical measurement process, not a chemical, immunological, or molecular analysis of a biological sample.
Therefore, the SpiroThor spirometer falls under the category of a diagnostic medical device that performs physiological measurements, but it does not meet the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Non-Clinical Testing Summary -
For K092813, THOR performed a number of bench tests.
These included:
- American Thoracic Society (ATS) 24 standard waveforms
- ISO 26782:2009
- Accuracy of waveform generator -
- Flow resistance test
- EN 60601-1:2006/AC:2010 -
- EN 60601-1-2:2007/AC:2010 -
- EN 60601-1-6:2010

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.

Device Description:
The Cohero Health SpiroThor Spirometer is a hand-held portable diagnostic spirometer for the measurement of patient breath flow and volume. The proposed device consists of a compact main unit and an ultrasonic flowmeter sensor used with a pulmonary function filter. The device uses an ultrasonic sensor that measures flow. Algorithms are used to determine values based on this flow measurement. Tabular and graphical data are displayed on the spirometer LCD display.
We note that the proposed SpiroThor is identical to the AstraSonic Spirometer cleared under K092813 with these differences, name change and that another cleared bacterial filter may be used with the device.
Indications for Use:
SpiroThor spirometer is a freestanding laboratory instrument for performing basic lung function tests in adults and children over the age of four years.
It is intended to be used by physicians or professional medical personnel for testing in Physicians' offices, industrial medical, and hospital settings.
Substantial Equivalence Discussion:
The proposed device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device, manufactured by Thor Medical for SDI Diagnostics and cleared under the SDI name K092813 as the AstraSonic spirometer except as noted above, i.e. name change and another bacterial filter may be used.
Tables 1 and 2 compare the key features of the proposed SpiroThor with the identified predicate and demonstrate that the proposed device is substantially equivalent.
