Intended Use
The Seal Rite Non-Rebreathing Valve is a single-use, non-sterile device intended to be used with a ventilation mask (without oxygen port) to provide mouth-to-mask ventilation to health emergency victims requiring cardiopulmonary resuscitation ("CPR") rescue techniques. It is intended for over-the-counter use.
Device Description
The Seal Rite™ Non-Rebreathing Valve ("Seal Rite Valve") is a resuscitation valve designed for resuscitation using expired air for ventilation. It has fittings on the grooved patient end that will adapt to standard masks (22 mm ID) used for resuscitation. The Seal Rite Valve allows the rescuer to blow air into a mask through its silicone one-way valve and directs the patient's exhaled air away from the rescuer via a rigid one-way valve and multiple exhaust ports. The Seal Rite Valve helps protect the rescuer from potential patient contamination. The Seal Rite Valve does not have an oxygen port.
More Information

No
The device description and performance studies focus on mechanical function and biocompatibility, with no mention of AI or ML.

No
The device is described as a "resuscitation valve designed for resuscitation using expired air for ventilation" used to provide "mouth-to-mask ventilation." While it assists in a life-saving procedure, its primary function is to facilitate the delivery of air and protect the rescuer, rather than directly treating a medical condition or disease within the patient. It's a tool for a rescue technique, not a therapeutic agent itself.

No

The device is a non-rebreathing valve used for providing mouth-to-mask ventilation during CPR. Its purpose is to facilitate ventilation and protect the rescuer from contamination, not to diagnose a medical condition.

No

The device description clearly details a physical, mechanical valve with fittings, a silicone one-way valve, a rigid one-way valve, and exhaust ports. The performance studies also focus on physical and mechanical properties and biocompatibility, not software performance.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to provide mouth-to-mask ventilation during CPR. This is a life support technique performed directly on a patient.
  • Device Description: The device is a valve that facilitates the flow of air during ventilation. It does not involve the examination of specimens derived from the human body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any components or functions related to:
    • Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Detecting or measuring substances in biological samples
    • Providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening based on sample analysis.

IVD devices are specifically designed to perform tests on samples taken from the body to provide information about a person's health status. This device is used on the body to assist with breathing.

Summary of Performance Studies

The Seal Rite Valve was tested to ensure conformance with the FDA Recognized AS 4259-1995 standard ("Ancillary devices for expired air resuscitation") and passed all testing requirements.
Biocompatibility testing was conducted in accordance with FDA Blue Book Memo G95-1. Testing was conducted for cytotoxicity, sensitization and irritation per ISO 10993-5, 10993-10 and 10993-12. All tests (Cytotoxicity, Irritation, Sensitization) resulted in "Pass".
Bench Testing included: Ventilation Performance, Expiratory Resistance for the Patient, Expiratory Resistance for the Rescuer, Inspiratory Resistance for a Spontaneously Breathing Patient, Function After Contamination with Stomach Contents, Function After Immersion in Water, Measurement of Dead Space, Resistance to Disengagement of Parts, High and Low Storage Conditions, High Temperature Operation, Low Temperature Operation, Attempted Displacement of Valve by Finger, Function After Dropping, Function After Potentially Deforming Weight, Conformance of Connectors, ISTA Procedure 2A Shipping Testing. All bench tests resulted in "Pass".
These studies demonstrate that the Seal Rite™ Non-Rebreathing Valve is biocompatible, performs as intended and meets the requirements of the AS 4259-1995 standard and is therefore as safe and effective as the predicate device, the Rescue Valve.

Description

The Seal Rite™ Non-Rebreathing Valve ("Seal Rite Valve") is a resuscitation valve designed for resuscitation using expired air for ventilation. It has fittings on the grooved patient end that will adapt to standard masks (22 mm ID) used for resuscitation. The Seal Rite Valve allows the rescuer to blow air into a mask through its silicone one-way valve and directs the patient's exhaled air away from the rescuer via a rigid one-way valve and multiple exhaust ports. The Seal Rite Valve helps protect the rescuer from potential patient contamination. The Seal Rite Valve does not have an oxygen port.

Indications for Use

The Seal Rite Non-Rebreathing Valve is a single-use, non-sterile device intended to be used with a ventilation mask (without oxygen port) to provide mouth-to-mask ventilation to health emergency victims requiring cardiopulmonary resuscitation ("CPR") rescue techniques. It is intended for over-the-counter use.

Predicate Device

The Seal Rite Valve is substantially equivalent to the Respironics Rescue Valve (K833748). The Seal Rite Valve and the Rescue Valve are both resuscitation valves utilized for mouth-to-mask emergency resuscitation using expired air from the rescuer through a valve for ventilation of the patient. Both valves direct the patient's exhaled gases away from the rescuer's face via a rigid one-way valve, and both valves have an ISO Standard 15/22 connector that allows use with a standard mask.

Please refer to the Substantial Equivalence Summary Comparison Table below for a summary of the similarities and differences between the subject and predicate devices.

Description of Operation

The Seal Rite Valve consists of a plastic body with two one-way valves: a silicone inspiratory one-way valve and a rigid, plastic expiratory one-way valve. Rescuers utilizing the Seal Rite Valve place their lips on the open end of the valve and blow expired air into the valve, which is attached to a standard mask, for the purpose of supplying rescue breaths to the patient. When the expired air enters the top of the Seal Rite Valve, the rigid one-way valve moves toward the patient, seals multiple exhaust ports, and the silicone one-way valve opens and provides air from the rescuer to the patient. The rigid, plastic expiratory valve remains closed when the rescuer is providing exhaled air to the patient because the pressure on the rescuer side of the plastic valve is

5

greater than the pressure inside the patient's airways. When the rescuer stops breathing exhaled air into the Seal Rite Valve, the silicone one-way valve closes and prevents the backflow of exhaled air from the patient to the rescuer. The rigid, plastic one-way valve lifts off of the exhaust ports due to the pressure inside the patient's airways being greater than the atmospheric pressure. The patient's exhaled air passes then through multiple exhaust ports.

Technological Characteristics Summary

The Seal Rite Valve is substantially equivalent to the Respironics Rescue Valve (K833748) with respect to intended use, design, principle of operation, technological characteristics and performance and the minor difference in device materials does not raise new questions of safety or effectiveness.

The Seal Rite Valve was tested to ensure conformance with the FDA Recognized AS 4259-1995 standard ("Ancillary devices for expired air resuscitation") and passed all testing requirements.

Performance Testing

As described below, a comprehensive battery of non-clinical tests was submitted to confirm product conformance with device requirements, including the FDA recognized AS 4259-1995 standard. These studies demonstrate that the Seal Rite™ Non-Rebreathing Valve is biocompatible, performs as intended and meets the requirements of the AS 4259-1995 standard and is therefore as safe and effective as the predicate device, the Rescue Valve.

Biocompatibility Testing

The biocompatibility testing was conducted in accordance with FDA Blue Book Memo G95-1. Testing was conducted for cytotoxicity, sensitization and irritation per ISO 10993-5, 10993-10 and 10993-12.
