More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a physical oral appliance for treating sleep apnea and does not mention any software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI or ML.

Yes
The device is indicated to treat a medical condition (mild to moderate Obstructive Sleep Apnea) and achieves this by actively moving the jaw to open airways, which directly impacts the patient's physiological function.

No
The device is described as an oral appliance used in the treatment of mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea, not for diagnosis.

No

The device description clearly states it is an "oral appliance" made of "dental industry standard acrylic resins & metals," indicating it is a physical hardware device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to treat mild to moderate Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) by physically moving the jaw forward. This is a therapeutic intervention, not a diagnostic test.
  • Device Description: The device is an oral appliance that physically interacts with the patient's anatomy to achieve a therapeutic effect. It does not analyze biological samples (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide diagnostic information.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Elements: There is no mention of the device being used to detect, measure, or analyze any biological markers or substances for diagnostic purposes.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, prevention, monitoring, treatment, or alleviation of disease. This device does not fit that description.

§ 872.5570 Intraoral devices for snoring and intraoral devices for snoring and obstructive sleep apnea.

(a)
Identification. Intraoral devices for snoring and intraoral devices for snoring and obstructive sleep apnea are devices that are worn during sleep to reduce the incidence of snoring and to treat obstructive sleep apnea. The devices are designed to increase the patency of the airway and to decrease air turbulence and airway obstruction. The classification includes palatal lifting devices, tongue retaining devices, and mandibular repositioning devices.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The special control for these devices is the FDA guidance document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Intraoral Devices for Snoring and/or Obstructive Sleep Apnea; Guidance for Industry and FDA.”

Dear Madubuike Okafor:

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. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. 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.

(4), The Respire Pink AT (Hard, Hard/Soft, EF) is an oral appliance used in the treatment of mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea. This device helps move a patient's jaw forward, thus opening their airways, and allowing them to breathe more easily throughout the night. The Respire Pink AT (Hard, Hard/Soft, EF) is made out of dental industry standard acrylic resins & metals, and is custom designed to comfortably fit each patients' unique oral anatomy.

(5) The intended use of the Respire Pink AT (Hard, Hard/Soft, EF) is "Our devices are indicated to treat mild to moderate Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) in patients, 18 years of age or older.". Obstructive sleep apnea (or OSA) is a sleep disorder that occurs when a patient's throat muscles intermittently relax and block their airway during sleep. The intended used for the Respire Pink AT (Hard, Hard/Soft, EF) has the phrase "in adult patients" replaced and clarified with the phrase "18 years of age or older". This is not a new indication, rather just a clarification since both of the devices shown in the below comparison chart. Are for adult patients. This addition is not critical to the intended therapeutic use of the device, and does not affect the safety and effectiveness of the device when used as labeled because both the predicate devices, and Respire Pink AT (Hard/Soft, EF) have always been ordered by medical professionals for adult patients only.

(6) Respire Medical has developed its own custom telescopic arm, and this arm is the technological difference between the Respire Pink AT (Hard, Hard/Soft, EF), and its legally marketed predicate device; the Respire Pink (Hard, Hard/Soft, EF). This new arm was developed in order to create a hinge with more self-contained features, allow for more ease of titration, and more accurate titration/mandibular advancement readings. The below comparison chart summarizes features of the Respire Pink AT (Hard/Soft, EF), and its predicate; the Respire Pink (Hard, Hard/Soft, EF). The chart also further demonstrates the substantially equivalence of the Respire Pink AT (Hard, Hard/Soft, EF) to the Respire Pink (Hard, Hard/Soft, EF). The 1mm increase of the "Maximum mandibular Advancement range" identified in Figure 1. is meant to allow for slightly more titration. The extra millimeter (7mm) maximum advancement of the MIM Hinge allows adjustment consistent with other cleared devices.

Figure 1.

  • (b) (1) In order to demonstrate the substantial equivalence of the Respire Pink AT (Hard, Hard/Soft, EF), bench testing was conducted on the device in order to ensure that it safely & effectively performs as intended. This testing included mechanical safety & performance validation, biocompatibility tests, and shipping validation tests. The results indicated that the Respire Pink AT (Hard, Hard/Soft, EF) performs as well as the predicate device.
    (2) N/A (Clinical Testing is not required per "Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Intraoral Devices for Snoring and/or Obstructive Sleep Apnea – Guidance for Industry and FDA". This is due to the fact that none of the below criteria requiring clinical testing apply:

  • o "uses designs dissimilar from designs previously cleared under a 510(k)"

    • (the design for the Respire Pink AT (Hard, Hard/Soft, EF) is similar to the റ design for the Respire Pink (Hard, Hard/Soft, EF)
  • o "uses new technology, i.e., technology different from that used in leqally marketed intraoral devices for snoring and/or obstructive sleep apnea"

    • (the technology used for the Respire Pink AT (Hard, Hard/Soft, EF) is still O mandibular adjustment via titration)
  • o "makes changes in the indication for use."

    • (the intended use has not changed) O

(3) The conclusions drawn from the nonclinical tests demonstrate that the Respire Pink AT (Hard, Hard/Soft, EF) is as safe, as effective, and performs as well as the legally marketed predicate device. The mechanical safety & performance validation, biocompatibility tests, and shipping validation tests criteria were all evaluated thoroughly, and passed successfully.
