Intended Use
The Nihon Kohden NKV-550 Series Ventilator System is intended to provide continuous ventilation for adult, pediatric and neonatal patients who require invasive or noninvasive respiratory support. The NKV-550 offers mandatory and spontaneous ventilation modes as well as respiratory monitoring. The NKV-550 is intended for use in hospitals and hospital-type facilities, as well as, for in-hospital transportation.
Device Description
The Nihon Kohden NKV-550 Series Ventilator System consists of a graphic user interface (GUI) and a breath delivery unit (BDU). The GUI allows clinicians to set ventilator control parameters such as tidal volume and inspiratory pressure, to set alarm limits such as high inspiratory pressure alarm, to view monitored numeric values, to view waveform and loops, and to operate various features through the apps. The BDU contains a microprocessor that receives inputs from the electronic system and controls the pneumatic system for breath delivery to the patient. It also provides various alarms, a safety valve, and other design features to maximize patient safety.
More Information

No
The document explicitly states "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML: Not Found" and the description focuses on standard ventilator functionalities controlled by a microprocessor.

Yes

The device provides continuous ventilation, which is a form of respiratory support and therapy for patients.

No

Explanation: The device is a ventilator system intended for respiratory support, not for diagnosing medical conditions. While it offers "respiratory monitoring," this is for controlling the ventilation process and ensuring patient safety, not for diagnostic purposes.

No

The device description explicitly states that the system consists of both a graphic user interface (GUI) and a breath delivery unit (BDU), which contains a microprocessor and controls a pneumatic system for breath delivery. This indicates the presence of significant hardware components beyond just software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is for providing continuous ventilation and respiratory support to patients. This is a therapeutic and life-support function, not a diagnostic one.
  • Device Description: The description focuses on the mechanical and electronic components that control and deliver breaths to the patient, as well as monitoring respiratory parameters. It does not mention any components or processes related to analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) which is the core function of an IVD.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of reagents, assays, sample handling, or any other elements typically associated with in vitro diagnostic devices.

In summary, the Nihon Kohden NKV-550 Series Ventilator System is a medical device used for respiratory support, not for performing diagnostic tests on biological samples.

The NKV-550 offers mandatory and spontaneous ventilation modes as well as respiratory monitoring. The NKV-550 is intended for use in hospitals and hospital-type facilities, as well as, for in-hospital transportation.

Product Intended Function

The Nihon Kohden NKV-550 Series Ventilator System is intended to provide continuous ventilation using medical oxygen and external sources of compressed medical air to deliver oxygen concentrations of 21% to 100%. Ventilatory support is intended to be delivered invasively or noninvasively to patients who require Assisted/Control Mandatory Ventilation (A/CMV), Synchronized Intermittent Mandatory Ventilation (SIMV) or Spontaneous Ventilation (SPONT).
