Intended Use
The CO2 Mainstream Module is intended to provide carbon dioxide monitoring system during anesthesia/recovery, in Emergency Medicine/Transport or Respiratory care. The CO2 Mainstream Module is intended to provide carbon dioxide monitoring to a monitoring system during anesthesia/recovery in host Emergencv Medicine/Transport or Respiratory care. The CO2 Mainstream Module is intended to provide carbon dioxide monitoring to a host monitoring system during anesthesia/recovery, in the intensive care unit (ICU), and in Emergency Medicine/Transport or Respiratory care.
Device Description
The CO2 Mainstream module is a non-dispersive infrared gas analyzer with an autozero adjustment system and gain control. The operation of the CO2 Mainstream module is based on CO2 energy absorption rates. CO2 molecules absorb infrared light energy of specific wavelengths, with the amount of energy absorbed being directly related to the CO2 concentration. When an IR light beam is passed through a gas sample containing CO2, the electronic signal from the infrared sensor (which measures the remaining light energy), can be obtained. This signal is then compared to the energy of the IR source, and calibrated to reflect CO2 concentration in the sample accurately. Calibration is performed using the infrared sensor's response to a known concentration of CO2 stored in the module'smemory. The circuit module retains the atmospheric absolute pressure sensors and control of the pressure sensor. Modules can measure atmospheric pressure, and atmospheric can compensate the calculation for the concentrations of carbon dioxide, which improves the design accuracy. The module then determines CO2 concentration in the breathing gases by measuring the amount of light absorbed by these gases. EtCO2 displays a numerical value in millimeters of mercury (mmHg), percent (%), or kilopascals (kPa). In addition, a CO2 waveform (Capnogram) may be displayed, which is a valuable clinical tool that can be used to assess patient airway integrity and proper endotracheal tube placement. Respiration rate is calculated by measuring the time interval between detected breaths. The differences between the Capno M and M+ are only with the intended patient type. The Capno M is intended for use on intubated patients, where the Capno M+ is intended for use with intubated and non-intubated patients. The operating principles, unit of measurement, ETCO2 measurement range, accuracy, respiration rate range, and respiration rate accuracy are the same for both devices.
More Information

Not Found

No
The device description details a non-dispersive infrared gas analyzer that measures CO2 concentration based on light absorption and calibrated against a known concentration. The calculation of respiration rate is based on time intervals between detected breaths. There is no mention of algorithms that learn from data or adapt their behavior, which are characteristic of AI/ML. The performance studies are bench tests against a standard, not validation of an AI/ML model.

No
The device is described as a "monitoring system" that measures carbon dioxide and respiration rate. It provides diagnostic information but does not actively treat or intervene in a therapeutic manner.

Yes

This device monitors carbon dioxide levels and provides a CO2 waveform (Capnogram) and respiration rate, which are used to assess patient airway integrity and proper endotracheal tube placement. This information helps clinicians make decisions about patient care, fitting the definition of a diagnostic device.

No

The device description explicitly details hardware components like a non-dispersive infrared gas analyzer, infrared sensor, and circuit module with pressure sensors. It describes the physical process of measuring CO2 concentration through light absorption, which is a hardware-based function.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices intended for use in vitro for the examination of specimens, including blood, tissue, and urine, derived from the human body, to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes.
  • Device Function: The CO2 Mainstream Module directly measures the concentration of carbon dioxide in the breathing gases of a patient. This is a measurement taken in vivo (within the living body's respiratory system), not in vitro (outside the body using a specimen).
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states monitoring during anesthesia/recovery, emergency medicine/transport, ICU, and respiratory care. These are all clinical settings where the device is used to monitor a patient's physiological state directly.
  • Device Description: The description details how the device analyzes infrared light absorption in breathing gases, which is consistent with in vivo respiratory monitoring.

Therefore, the CO2 Mainstream Module is a medical device used for physiological monitoring, not an In Vitro Diagnostic.

Purpose of Submission

This is a new traditional 510(K) submission of a Carbon Dioxide Gas Analyzer.

Device Description

The CO2 Mainstream module is a non-dispersive infrared gas analyzer with an autozero adjustment system and gain control.

The operation of the CO2 Mainstream module is based on CO2 energy absorption rates. CO2 molecules absorb infrared light energy of specific wavelengths, with the amount of energy absorbed being directly related to the CO2 concentration. When an IR light beam is passed through a gas sample containing CO2, the electronic signal from the infrared sensor (which measures the remaining light energy), can be obtained. This signal is then compared to the energy of the IR source, and calibrated to reflect CO2 concentration in the sample accurately. Calibration is performed using the infrared sensor's response to a known concentration of CO2 stored in the module'smemory.

The circuit module retains the atmospheric absolute pressure sensors and control of the pressure sensor. Modules can measure atmospheric pressure, and atmospheric can compensate the calculation for the concentrations of carbon dioxide, which improves the design accuracy.

5

The module then determines CO2 concentration in the breathing gases by measuring the amount of light absorbed by these gases. EtCO2 displays a numerical value in millimeters of mercury (mmHg), percent (%), or kilopascals (kPa). In addition, a CO2 waveform (Capnogram) may be displayed, which is a valuable clinical tool that can be used to assess patient airway integrity and proper endotracheal tube placement. Respiration rate is calculated by measuring the time interval between detected breaths.

The differences between the Capno M and M+ are only with the intended patient type. The Capno M is intended for use on intubated patients, where the Capno M+ is intended for use with intubated and non-intubated patients. The operating principles, unit of measurement, ETCO2 measurement range, accuracy, respiration rate range, and respiration rate accuracy are the same for both devices.

Indication for use

The CO2 Mainstream Module is intended to provide carbon dioxide monitoring to a monitoring system during anesthesia/recovery in host Emergencv Medicine/Transport or Respiratory care.

Comparison with the predicate device:

Beijing Kingst Commercial & Trade Co., Ltd. believes that the Beijing Kingst Commercial & Trade Co., Ltd. CO2 Mainstream Module is substantially equivalent to the Respironics Novametrix. Inc. CAPNOSTAT 5 Carbon Dioxide Gas Analyzer (K042601).

There are differences in the CO2 response time and the respiration rate measurement range. The response time difference is 10 ms. This does not affect the accuracy or usage. The measurement range difference is at the lowest part of the scale. The predicate devices' range is 2-150 breaths per minute, where the submitted device range is 3-150 breaths per minute. The difference at the lower end of the range does not pose any risks or hazards to patients. They have the same intended use. The minor differences in technological characteristics do not raise issues of safety and effectiveness. The subject device is identical to the predicate device. Please refer to the following pages for specific difference details.
