The Vivo 45 LS ventilator (without the SpO2 and CO2 sensors) is intended to provide continuous or internittent ventilatory support for the care of individuals who require mechanical ventilation. Specifically, the ventilator is applicable for pediatric through adult patients weighing more than 5 kg (1 1bs.), however, the mouthpiece ventilation modes are for adult patients only.
The Vivo 45 LS with the SpO2 sensor is intended to measure function of arterial hemoglobin (% SpO2) and pulse rate.
The Vivo 45 LS with the CO2 sensor is intended to measure CO2 in the inspiratory and expiratory gas.
The device is intended to be used in home, institution, hospitals applications such as wheelchairs and gurneys. It may be used for both invasive and non-invasive ventilation. The Vivo 45 LS is not intended to be used as an emergency transport or critical care ventilator.
The Vivo 45 LS Ventilator is a portable, microprocessor controlled turbine based pressure support, pressure control or volume controlled ventilator intended for the care of individuals who require mechanical ventilation.
Flow and pressure are read using flow and pressure sensors. Essential parameters such as pressure, flow and volume are presented on the ventilator screen, both in the form as graphs and numbers.
Operator actions are performed via the front panel where the buttons and an LCD screen are located (and two dedicated buttons on the top of the ventilator control starting/stopping treatment and pausing the alarm audio). There are dedicated LEDs and buttons for managing alarm conditions and an Information button which provides integrated user support.
The Vivo 45 LS can be operated by external AC or DC power supply and contains an integrated battery as well as an optional click in battery.
The Vivo 45 LS can be used with two types of patient circuits: single limb patient circuits including an active exhalation valve and single limb patient circuits including a passive leakage port.
The provided FDA 510(k) summary (K193586) describes the Breas Medical AB Vivo 45 LS ventilator. This document primarily focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices rather than deeply detailing an independent clinical study with acceptance criteria in the way a de novo device might.
Based on the document, here's a breakdown of the requested information:
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
The document does not present a formal table of acceptance criteria with corresponding performance metrics for the device for a standalone clinical study. Instead, performance testing focused on verifying conformance with requirements specifications and applicable standards, and comparative testing with predicate devices. The acceptance criteria are implicitly tied to meeting these standards and demonstrating substantial equivalence.
Here's an attempt to infer and summarize the performance goals and how they were met based on the provided text:
| Acceptance Criteria (Implied) | Reported Device Performance |
|---|---|
| Conformance to Electrical Safety Standards (e.g., ANSI/AAMI ES60601-1) | Verified conformance with ANSI/AAMI ES60601-1:2005. |
| Conformance to Electromagnetic Compatibility Standards (e.g., IEC 60601-1-2) | Verified conformance with IEC 60601-1-2: 2014. |
| Conformance to Usability Standards (e.g., IEC 60601-1-6) | Verified conformance with IEC 60601-1-6: 2010+A1:2013. Summative usability/human factors testing found the Vivo 45 LS to be safe and effective for intended users, uses, and environments (including respiratory therapists, registered nurses, and lay caregivers). |
| Conformance to Alarm System Standards (e.g., IEC 60601-1-8) | Verified conformance with IEC 60601-1-8: 2006 + Am. 1: 2012. Alarms testing confirmed proper operation of physiologic and technical alarms. |
| Conformance to Home Healthcare Environment Standards (e.g., IEC 60601-1-11) | Verified conformance with IEC 60601-1-11: 2015. |
| Conformance to Critical Care Ventilator Standards (e.g., ISO 80601-2-12) | Verified conformance with ISO 80601-2-12:2011. |
| Conformance to Respiratory Gas Monitor Standards (for CO2 sensor, e.g., ISO 80601-2-55) | Verified conformance with ISO 80601-2-55: 2018. The CO2 sensor is intended to measure CO2 in inspiratory and expiratory gas. |
| Conformance to Pulse Oximeter Equipment Standards (for SpO2 sensor, e.g., ISO 80601-2-61) | Verified conformance with ISO 80601-2-61:2017. The SpO2 sensor is intended to measure functional oxygen saturation of arterial hemoglobin (%SpO2) and pulse rate. |
| Conformance to Home Healthcare Environment Ventilator Standards (e.g., ISO 80601-2-72) | Verified conformance with ISO 80601-2-72:2015. |
| Battery Performance (IEC 62133) | Verified conformance with IEC 62133: 2012. Power management testing confirmed proper operation including transitions between power sources, alarms, and battery operating time. |
| Biocompatibility (ISO 18562 series) | All materials in the gas pathway were evaluated for VOCs (ISO 18562-3), particulates (ISO 18562-2), and inorganic gases (CO, CO2, Ozone) per ISO 18562-1 recommendations. No VOC compounds observed in toxicologically significant quantities. Particulate quantities were well below acceptable limits. Device was found not to generate carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, or ozone. |
| Waveform Accuracy (Flow, Pressure, Volume) | Waveform performance testing conducted comparing Vivo 45 LS to Vivo 60 (and Trilogy EVO for MPV modes). The comparison of recorded waveforms supports the claim that Vivo 45 LS is substantially equivalent to predicate devices. |
| Triggering Performance | Triggering testing showed that the Vivo 45 LS performed as intended, detecting each patient effort within permissible trigger delay without false-triggers. |
| Accuracy of Controls and Monitored Values | Testing confirmed that the Vivo 45 LS meets its accuracy specifications. |
| Performance of Mouthpiece Ventilation (MPV) and SIMV modes | Testing of MPV and SIMV modes was performed and the Vivo 45 LS passed all tests. |

| Software Verification and Validation | Performed at unit, integration, and system level according to plans and protocols with predetermined pass/fail criteria. All tests passed. |
| Cleaning Validation | Performed to ensure no physical or performance degradation occurred. |
2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance
The document does not specify a "test set" in terms of patient data or clinical samples. The performance testing described is primarily bench testing against engineering specifications and industry standards, and comparative testing against predicate devices (Vivo 60 and Trilogy Evo). Therefore, concepts like country of origin or retrospective/prospective data provenance are not applicable in the context of this device's testing as described.
3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts
Not applicable in the typical sense. The "ground truth" for the engineering performance tests is derived from established engineering principles, international standards, and the performance characteristics of the predicate devices.
However, for summative usability/human factors testing, the document mentions the involvement of:
- Respiratory therapists
- Registered nurses
- Lay caregivers
Their collective feedback and performance in simulated use scenarios would have served as the "ground truth" for assessing the device's usability and human factors safety. The exact number of each type of professional is not specified.
4. Adjudication method for the test set
Not explicitly stated for the engineering and comparative tests. The passing of tests against specifications and standards implies adherence to predefined pass/fail criteria. For the usability testing, "was found to be safe and effective" suggests a consensus or evaluation against usability requirements, but a specific adjudication method (e.g., 2+1) is not detailed.
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
A Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was not conducted as this device is a ventilator, not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool for "human readers." The comparative testing performed was between the Vivo 45 LS and its predicate devices (Vivo 60 and Trilogy Evo) to demonstrate technological equivalence, not to evaluate human performance with or without AI assistance.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the loop performance) was done
This refers to the performance of the device itself (the "algorithm only" being the device's operational logic and hardware). The document describes extensive standalone performance testing of the Vivo 45 LS against various standards and specifications. This includes:
- Waveform performance (flow, pressure, volume)
- Triggering performance
- Accuracy of controls and monitored values
- Performance of specific ventilation modes (MPV, SIMV)
- Alarm system operation
- Power management
- Cybersecurity
- RFID immunity
- Software verification and validation
- Biocompatibility
These tests evaluate the device's inherent function without human intervention during the measurement or operation for the test itself, thus representing its standalone technical performance.
7. The type of ground truth used
The ground truth for the various performance tests was primarily based on:
- International and National Standards: e.g., ANSI/AAMI ES60601-1, IEC 60601 series, ISO 80601 series, ISO 18562 series. The criteria within these standards define what constitutes acceptable performance.
- Device Specifications: The manufacturer's own predefined accuracy specifications and operational parameters.
- Predicate Device Performance: For comparative testing, the performance of the legally marketed predicate devices (Vivo 60 and Trilogy Evo) served as a benchmark for demonstrating substantial equivalence.
8. The sample size for the training set
Not applicable. This document describes the premarket notification for a medical device (ventilator), not a machine learning or AI algorithm that requires a "training set" of data.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established
Not applicable, as there is no mention of a training set or AI algorithm for which ground truth would be established.

Intended Use:
To provide continuous or intermittent ventilatory support for the care of individuals who require mechanical ventilation.
Indications for Use:
The Vivo 45 LS ventilator (with or without the SpO2 and CO2 sensors) is intended to provide continuous or intermittent ventilatory support for the care of individuals who require mechanical ventilation. Specifically, the ventilator is applicable for pediatric through adult patients weighing more than 5 kg (11 lbs.), however, the mouthpiece ventilation modes are for adult patients only.
The Vivo 45 LS with the SpO2 sensor is intended to measure functional oxygen saturation of arterial hemoglobin (%SpO2) and pulse rate.
The Vivo 45 LS with the CO2 sensor is intended to measure CO2 in the inspiratory and expiratory gas.
The device is intended to be used in home, institution, hospitals and portable applications such as wheelchairs and gurneys. It may be used for both invasive and non-invasive ventilation. The Vivo 45 LS is not intended to be used as an emergency transport or critical care ventilator.
Device Description:
The Vivo 45 LS Ventilator is a portable, microprocessor controlled turbine based pressure support, pressure control or volume controlled ventilator intended for the care of individuals who require mechanical ventilation.
Flow and pressure are read using flow and pressure sensors. Essential parameters such as pressure, flow and volume are presented on the ventilator screen, both in the form as graphs and numbers.
Operator actions are performed via the front panel where the buttons and an LCD screen are located (and two dedicated buttons on the top of the ventilator control starting/stopping treatment and pausing the alarm audio). There are dedicated LEDs and buttons for managing alarm conditions and an Information button which provides integrated user support.
The Vivo 45 LS can be operated by external AC or DC power supply and contains an integrated battery as well as an optional click in battery.
The Vivo 45 LS can be used with two types of patient circuits: single limb patient circuits including an active exhalation valve and single limb patient circuits including a passive leakage port.
Technological Characteristics Compared to Predicate:
The Vivo 45 LS is a modification to the Vivo 60 ventilator cleared in K160481. The Vivo 45 LS is physically smaller than the Vivo 60 and includes some added features. The Vivo 45 LS user interface design is the same as the Vivo 60, with the same layout of displays, data and menus on the LCD screen, and the same layout of physical buttons for the user to take actions such as starting and stopping treatment, navigating the screen, and selecting parameters. The Vivo 45 LS software originated from the Vivo 60 software, and as such shares the same algorithms and remains very similar. The 45 LS electronics design also originated from the Vivo 60 and remains very similar. The blower inside the Vivo 45 LS is a slightly smaller version of the blower inside the Vivo 60 but has the same mechanical and electrical design.
{5}------------------------------------------------
The Breas Vivo 45 LS has the same intended use and similar technological characteristics to the two predicate devices; the primary predicate device is the Vivo 45 LS (cleared in K160481) and the secondary predicate is the Respironics Trilogy Evo (cleared in K181166). Breas Medical believes that the Vivo 45 LS described in this notification and for use under the conditions of the proposed labeling is substantially equivalent to legally marketed predicate devices that are also Class II medical devices.
The intended use of the Vivo 45 LS it to provide continuous or intermittent ventilatory support for the care of individuals who require mechanical ventilation which is the same as the intended use for the Vivo 60. Although the Vivo 45 LS is a modification of the Vivo 60 and has many shared features, there are also technological characteristics which are different. Both the Vivo 45 LS and the Vivo 60 are software controlled devices that receive ambient air through an inlet, utilize a turbine to generate the required pressures and flows, and pass the air to the patient via an outlet. Both devices provide a bleed-in connection for a low pressure, low flow supplemental oxygen supply. The majority of the ventilation modes are identical between the Vivo 45 LS and the Vivo 60 with one additional mode, mouthpiece ventilation, provided in the Vivo 45 LS. Additionally the ventilation parameter settings are largely unchanged as are the alarm settings. The accuracy of controls and accuracy of monitored values are the same between the devices. The user interfaces, power management features, environmental characteristics and data connectivity are all substantially equivalent between the devices. The optional accessories are either cleared in another 510(k) or substantially equivalent to those cleared in the predicate devices.
The Vivo 45 LS includes mouthpiece ventilation which is not included in the Vivo 60 but is a feature of the secondary predicate device, the Trilogy Evo. Both devices have intended use which is to provide continuous or intermittent ventilatory support for the care of individuals who require mechanical ventilation. The Vivo 45 LS and the Trilogy Evo have the same technological characteristics in regards to mouthpiece ventilation with minor differences in the exact performance specifications.
The Vivo 45 LS is substantially equivalent to the combination of the Vivo 60 and Trilogy Evo both of which are legally marketed predicate devices.
Performance Testing:
The Vivo 45 LS was subjected to performance testing which verified conformance with all requirements specifications and applicable standards, and which included comparative testing with the Vivo 60 predicate device which supported substantial equivalence. Additional testing was performed to support the substantial equivalence to the secondary predicate device, the Trilogy Evo for the mouthpiece ventilation.
