Intended Use
The EasyOne Air spirometer is intended for prescription use only to conduct diagnostic spirometry testing of adults and pediatric patients over 4 years old. The EasyOne Air spirometer is used by general practitioners, specialists, and health care professionals, in hospitals and clinical settings in occupational medicine.
Device Description
The ndd EasyOne Air is a diagnostic spirometer. In order to conduct simple diagnostic spirometry testing, the EasyOne Air is used in combination with a commercially available disposable breathing tube with integrated mouthpiece (EasyOne Flow Tube). The sensor is an ultrasound flow sensor that measures pulse transit-time to determine gas flow velocity and volume, as well as molar mass of the gas. The collected data is used for pulmonary function evaluation and data management. The results of the testing are stored in a database and reports can be displayed or printed.

No
The summary describes a standard spirometer using ultrasound technology to measure airflow and volume. There is no mention of AI or ML in the device description, intended use, or performance studies. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" field is explicitly marked as "Not Found".

No.

This device is a diagnostic spirometer used to measure lung function and evaluate pulmonary conditions, but it does not provide therapy or treatment.

Yes

The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" states the device is "to conduct diagnostic spirometry testing," and the "Device Description" explicitly calls it a "diagnostic spirometer."

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "diagnostic spirometer" and mentions hardware components like an "ultrasound flow sensor" and a "disposable breathing tube." It also details hardware testing (electrical safety, biocompatibility) in addition to software verification and validation.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • EasyOne Air Function: The EasyOne Air spirometer measures lung function by analyzing the air a patient breathes in and out. This is a direct measurement of a physiological process within the body, not an analysis of a specimen taken from the body.

Therefore, the EasyOne Air spirometer falls under the category of a diagnostic medical device, but not specifically an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Dynamic wave form testing and comparative testing with a commercially available ndd Spirometer confirmed that the EasyOne Air Spirometer meets the spirometry recommendations for accuracy and precision published by the American Thoracic Society (ATS). Testing demonstrated equivalence to the predicate device with regards to performance of Forced Vital Capacity (FVC), Flow-volume loop (FVL), Slow Vital Capacity (SVC), and Maximal Voluntary Ventilation (MVV) spirometry test types.

The device was tested to demonstrate conformance with IEC 60601-1 and IEC 60601-1-2 requirements for electrical safety.

The materials used in the EasyOne Air device meet the requirements for biocompatibility in accordance with ISO 10993-1. Biocompatibility of the EasyOne Flow Tube was shown by testing for cytotoxicity (ISO 10993-5), sensitization and irritation (ISO 10993-10), chemical characterization (ISO 10993-18), particulate matter (ISO/FDIS 18562-2) and volatile organics (ISO/FDIS 18562-3).

Software verification and validation in accordance with IEC 62304 revealed that the EasyOne Air Spirometer meets the specified criteria.

Design Validation was successfully completed in accordance with IEC 62366.

Device name:

Common name:Spirometer
Classification name:Diagnostic spirometer
Product code:BZG
Regulation number:868.1840

Predicate device:

Substantial equivalence is claimed to the ndd EasyOne Spirometer, cleared for commercial distribution per K993921.

Device Description:

The ndd EasyOne Air is a diagnostic spirometer.

In order to conduct simple diagnostic spirometry testing, the EasyOne Air is used in combination with a commercially available disposable breathing tube with integrated mouthpiece (EasyOne Flow Tube).

The sensor is an ultrasound flow sensor that measures pulse transit-time to determine gas flow velocity and volume, as well as molar mass of the gas. The collected data is used for pulmonary function evaluation and data management. The results of the testing are stored in a database and reports can be displayed or printed.

Intended Use:

The EasyOne Air Spirometer is intended for prescription use only to conduct diagnostic spirometry testing of adults and pediatric patients over 4 years old. The EasyOne Air is used by general practitioners, specialists, and health care professionals, in hospitals and clinics, in pharmacies, and in clinical settings in occupational medicine.

The intended use, indications and patient population of the EasyOne Air Spirometer is similar to the predicate device EasyOne.

Comparison of technological characteristics:

The new device has the same technological characteristics with regards to spirometry testing as the predicate device, in particular the same sensor technology is used for spirometry testing. Both devices provide the same spirometry functions with the same test types, test parameters and utilize the same interpretation algorithms.

Differences between the EasyOne Air Spirometer and the predicate device: The new device has a larger, color, touch-enabled display in comparison to the predicate device which has a small, black/white display and a keyboard. The new device is capable of Bluetooth and wireless connectivity and uses a rechargeable battery pack in comparison to the standard batteries required for the predicate device. The new device also includes newly published clinical interpretation methods (GOLD(2008)/Hardie, Nice) compared to the predicate device.

The EasyOne Air device is used in combination with the disposable, single-use breathing tube ndd EasyOne Flow Tube. The predicate device is used in combination with the disposable, singleuse breathing tube ndd Spirette.

The new ndd EasyOne Flow Tube has the same technological characteristics with regards to spirometry testing and patient hygiene concept as the ndd Spirette used in combination with the predicate device.

The patient-contacting part of the new breathing tube consists of poly(ethylene-co-propylene) in comparison to the predicate breathing tube, which consisted of polyethylene. Biocompatibility and cross-contamination prevention characteristics of the new breathing tube are the same as for the predicate breathing tube. The new breathing tube has a different shape (design) than the predicate breathing tube.

Design verification and validation demonstrates that the EasyOne Air spirometer used in combination with the EasyOne Flow Tube provides the same spirometry test results as the predicate device used in combination with the Spirette and is therefore substantially equivalent to the predicate device.

Summary of testing:

Dynamic wave form testing and comparative testing with a commercially available ndd Spirometer confirmed that the EasyOne Air Spirometer meets the spirometry recommendations for accuracy and precision published by the American Thoracic Society (ATS). Testing demonstrated equivalence to the predicate device with regards to performance of Forced Vital Capacity (FVC), Flow-volume loop (FVL), Slow Vital Capacity (SVC), and Maximal Voluntary Ventilation (MVV) spirometry test types.

The device was tested to demonstrate conformance with IEC 60601-1 and IEC 60601-1-2 requirements for electrical safety.

The materials used in the EasyOne Air device meet the requirements for biocompatibility in accordance with ISO 10993-1. Biocompatibility of the EasyOne Flow Tube was shown by testing for cytotoxicity (ISO 10993-5), sensitization and irritation (ISO 10993-10), chemical characterization (ISO 10993-18), particulate matter (ISO/FDIS 18562-2) and volatile organics (ISO/FDIS 18562-3).

Software verification and validation in accordance with IEC 62304 revealed that the EasyOne Air Spirometer meets the specified criteria.

Design Validation was successfully completed in accordance with IEC 62366.

Conclusion:

Based on the above, ndd Medical Technologies concluded that the EasyOne Air Spirometer is substantially equivalent to the legally marketed predicate device and is as safe and effective for its intended use.
