Intended Use

This Device is to be used by properly trained personnel to deliver emergency, short term, constant flow, pressure cycled ventilator support on patients weighing 10kg and above.

Device Description

The VORTRAN® GO2VENT™ provides short term, constant flow, pressure cycled ventilatory support in either pressure control or pressure support modes on patients weighing 10kg and above. In the pressure support mode, the rate dial of the VORTRAN® GO2VENT™ is set so that the baseline pressure is above the set PEEP allowing the patient to initiate inhalation by drawing the baseline pressure down to the set PEEP. The device includes the pulmonary modulator (an exhalation valve that opens at PIP and closes at PEEP) and a patient connector tee to supply gas flow, entrain additional air, and provides a redundant pop-off valve for patient care. The working mechanism of the VORTRAN® GO2VENTTM consists of a moving diaphragm which adds or subtracts spring force when it is moved from a horizontal to a vertical position, the addition or subtraction of spring force will affect the PIP setting by 1~3 cm-H2O. The VORTRAN® GO2VENT™ will function in any position as long as the final adjustments are made in a secured position (strapped or taped to the patient). The VORTRAN® GO2VENT™ is not an ICU stand alone ventilator with multiple monitoring features. Set up and use of the VORTRAN® GO2VENT™ is simple. Set desired flow and adjust pressure dial to obtain desired I-time and/or tidal volume (see tidal volume chart in instructions), and adjust rate dial to obtain desired rate and I to E ratio.

AI/ML Overview

The VORTRAN® GO2VENT™ is a powered emergency ventilator. The device was found substantially equivalent to its predicate device (VORTRAN® Automatic Resuscitator (VAR-Plus), K041473) based on non-clinical performance data and material biocompatibility.

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance:

The device's acceptance criteria are based on compliance with the following standards:

  • ASTM Designation: F 920 - 93 (Reapproved 1999): "Standard Specification for Minimum Performance and Safety Requirements for Resuscitators Intended for Use with Humans."
  • ISO 10651-5: "Lung ventilators for medical use - Particular requirements for basic safety and essential performance - Part 5: Gas-powered emergency resuscitators."

The table below summarizes some key operational characteristics of the device and how they compare to the predicate, demonstrating that the new device meets the same specifications:

In addition, specific modifications were tested:

  • MR Conditional: The new beryllium-copper springs were tested according to ASTM F2052 and verified as MR Conditional for a static magnetic field of 3-Tesla or less, and a spatial gradient magnetic field of 10,000-gauss/cm or less.
  • New Entrainment Connectors: All testing data showed that the change in the knobs for FiO2 delivery did not degrade performance and the device delivers the required specifications.
  • New Beryllium-Copper Springs: Tested for performance and fatigue.

2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance:

The document concerns non-clinical performance testing only. There is no specific "test set" sample size in terms of clinical data or patient cases mentioned. The testing was conducted on the device itself and its components. The data provenance is from non-clinical laboratory testing performed by the manufacturer and a third-party (Shellock MR Testing for MR Conditional verification). The data is retrospective in the sense of comparing the new device against previously documented performance of the predicate device and established standards.

3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts:

Not applicable, as this was a non-clinical device performance and material compatibility study, not an expert-driven ground truth establishment for a diagnostic or AI algorithm.

4. Adjudication method for the test set:

Not applicable, as this was non-clinical device performance testing against established standards and predicate device specifications, not a clinical trial requiring adjudication of patient outcomes or interpretations.

5. If a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance:

No. This is not an AI-enabled device; it is a powered emergency ventilator. Therefore, no MRMC study or AI assistance evaluation was performed.

6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:

Not applicable. This is not an algorithm, but a medical device.

7. The type of ground truth used:

The ground truth for the device's performance is compliance with established engineering and medical device standards (ASTM F 920-93 and ISO 10651-5) and the performance specifications of the predicate device. Material compatibility was assessed against materials used in previously cleared devices.

8. The sample size for the training set:

Not applicable, as this is hardware medical device. There is no "training set" in the context of machine learning.

9. How the ground truth for the training set was established:

Not applicable, no training set or ground truth in the context of machine learning.

VI. COMPARISON OF TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS WITH THE PREDICATE DEVICE

A. Technical Modifications:

MR conditional - The new model of the VORTRAN® Automatic Resuscitator has been modified with new springs made of Beryllium-Copper instead of the Stainless-Steel. This change was verified (in the Shellock MR Testing on Vortran Products Report) to make the device MR Conditional. The report concluded that the VORTRAN® GO2VENT™ can be used in an MRI environment with a static magnetic field of 3-Tesla or less, and a spatial gradient magnetic field of 10,000-gauss/cm or less. Shellock performs their tests based on ASTM F2052 - Standard Test Method for Measurement of Magnetically Induced Displacement Force on Medical Devices in the Magnetic Resonance Environment. We have verified that the performance of the beryllium-copper springs is substantially equivalent to the stainless-steel springs.

New Entrainment Connectors for the 50% and 100% FiO2 Delivery - The new device connectors include a combination knob that can be rotated from the 100% FiO2 (a fully closed position of entrainment ports) to the 50% FiO2 (a position of having entrainment ports open) versus the two connectors of the predicate device that the 100% FiO2 connector should be completely removed to access the 50% FiO2 connector. The modification facilitates the FiO2 change from 50% to 100% FiO2 and vice versa. All testing data have shown and verified that the change in the knobs has not degraded the performance and the device delivers the required specifications.

Animal Study ●

None

  • Non-Clinical Performance Testing/Performance Data/Compliance with Performance Standards
    The VORTRAN® GO2VENT™, just as the VAR-Plus, meets the "Standard Specification for Minimum Performance and Safety Requirements for Resuscitators Intended for Use with Humans" ASTM Designation: F 920 -93. A separate non-clinical test showed that all requirements were also met for ISO 10651-5, "Lung ventilators for medical use - Particular requirements for basic safety and essential performance - Part 5: Gas-powered emergency resuscitators". The determination for substantial equivalence was based on a comparison of performance data between the new device and predicate device (FDA 510(k) No. K041473). The predicate device performance tests were documented. To demonstrate substantial equivalence, the new device was also tested using "ASTM F920-93 (Reapproved 1999)". In addition, the features that are considered technological differences were tested. The function of the new FiO2 entrainment feature (at 50% and 100% FiO2 settings) and device shelf-life were tested with the results documented. The new Beryllium-Copper springs were tested for performance and fatigue.

VII. CONCLUSIONS

  • The VORTRAN® GO2VENT™ is substantially equivalent to a predicate ● device: The VAR-Plus. The results from the nonclinical tests show that the device achieves predefined acceptance criteria for all assessments that were previously performed on the predicate device. VORTRAN® GO2VENT™, just as the VAR-Plus, meets the "Standard Specification for Minimum Performance and Safety Requirements for Resuscitators Intended for Use with Humans" ASTM Designation: F 920 - 93. All requirements were also met for ISO 10651-5, "Lung ventilators for medical use - Particular requirements for basic safety and essential performance - Part 5: Gaspowered emergency resuscitators". The VORTRAN® GO2VENT™ has been shown to be substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
