No
The description focuses on electro-optical measurement and computation of ratios using Molecular Correlation Spectroscopy™ technology, with no mention of AI or ML algorithms for data analysis or interpretation.
No
The device is used for diagnosis and monitoring, not for providing therapy or treatment.
Yes
Explanation: The device is explicitly stated as being "intended for use as an aid in the initial diagnosis and post treatment monitoring H. pylori of infection".
No
The device description explicitly states it is an "electro-optical medical device with embedded software" and includes hardware components like an integrated Auto Sampler and the BreathID® Smart device itself, in addition to the software and test kit.
Yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states that the system is used to "non-invasively measure changes in the 13CO2/12CO2 ratio of exhaled breath, which may be indicative of increased urease production associated with active Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection in the stomach." This measurement is performed on a biological sample (exhaled breath) in vitro (outside the body).
- Indications for Use: It is indicated for use as an "aid in the initial diagnosis and post treatment monitoring H. pylori of infection". Diagnosis and monitoring of a disease are key functions of IVD devices.
- Device Description: The description details a system that measures and computes the ratio of isotopes in exhaled breath samples collected in bags. This process of analyzing a biological sample outside the body is characteristic of an IVD.
- Test Kit: The system includes a test kit with reagents (13C-urea and citric acid) and sample collection materials (breath sample bags). Test kits used for analyzing biological samples are components of IVD systems.
- Measurement Method: The device uses Molecular Correlation Spectroscopy™ (MCS) technology to measure the ratio of isotopes in the breath sample. This is an analytical method applied to a biological sample.
The device analyzes a biological sample (exhaled breath) in vitro to provide information used for the diagnosis and monitoring of a disease (H. pylori infection). This aligns directly with the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

The system consists of an electro-optical medical device with embedded software designed to measure and compute the changes in ratio between 13CO2 and 12CO2 concentrations in the patient's exhalation, an integrated Auto Sampler, integrated software, and a test kit.
The IDkit Hp™ Two test kit consists of:
- A 75mg 13C-urea tablet
- A 4.3g package of powdered Citrica (citric acid)
- Drinking straw
- Package Insert (Instructions for Use)
- 2 Breath Sample Bags (Baseline and Post Ingestion) with bar code labels
- A large Sample Transport Bag
Using bags for breath collection enables off site and deferred testing as well as testing of multiple breath sample bags sequentially in a batch. The BreathID® Smart System measures and computes the ratio between 13CO2 and 12CO2 in the patient's exhaled breath before and after the ingestion of 13C-urea. The change in the 13CO2 / 12CO2 ratio before and after ingestion of 13C-urea is used to compute the Delta over Baseline (DOB).
The 13C measurement method for both the subject and the cleared (predicate) versions of the BreathID® Hp Lab Systems is based on Molecular Correlation Spectroscopy™ (MCS) technology. MCS technology is based on the concept of optical absorption of specific radiation emitted from CO2 discharge lamps.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Software Verification and Validation:
Software testing was conducted to evaluate the performance of the subject system and to verify that it performs according to its software requirements. Verification involved functionality testing, timing analysis, integration with the hardware, and error detection and handling. Verification was achieved by design reviews, code walkthroughs, functional testing of subcomponents and integration testing with the hardware.
System Performance and Safety Testing:
The performance bench testing program consisted of the following tests:
- Precision Tests (Precision, Repeatability and Reproducibility). Precision testing focused on the within laboratory precision/repeatability of the system and used one device, while the reproducibility test used 3 devices.
- Sample Carry-Over Test. The carry-over test was designed to demonstrate that the system has no sample carry-over effect.
- Environmental Tests (transportation, storage and operating conditions). The specified transportation, storage and operating conditions of the BreathID® Smart Device are identical to those of the predicate system. The environmental tests included temperature and altitude end conditions, vibrations and drop tests. The BreathID® Smart system was functionality tested several times during the Environmental test and found within the acceptance criteria.
- Comparison test between the predicate BreathID® Hp Lab System and the BreathID® Smart System. A comparison test between the predicate system and the device subject of this submission ran 80 measurements on each system and statistically shows that both systems may be used interchangeably.
- Electrical safety and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC).

Comparison of Intended Use
The intended use of the modified BreathID® Hp Lab System, (to include the BreathID® Smart System) has essentially remained equivalent to the predicate; both are intended for the initial diagnosis and post treatment monitoring of H. pylori infection in adult and pediatric (ages 3-17 years old) patients, and both are prescription devices are designed for performing multiple 13002 based breath tests automatically one after the other. But while the cleared BreathID Hp Lab system has an external auto sampler which enables sequential testing of 10 pairs of Breath Sample bags, the BreathID Smart analyzer includes an integrated auto sampler that enables sequential testing of 4 pairs of Breath Sample bags. These pairs are measured sequentially and automatically as in the predicate BreathID® Hp Lab System.
Test Kit and Ingested Drug
The BreathID® Smart System and the predicate BreathID® Hp Lab System both use the same IDkit Hp™ Two kit that consists of 13C urea, approved in NDA 21-314, and breath collection bags, approved in K162150. The protocol for breath collection and ingestion of 13C urea remains unchanged.
Comparison of Technological Characteristics
- The BreathID® Smart System shares with its predicate device the same measurement . system based on the same technology, the same test kit, the same test substrate, and the same diagnostic capabilities. Both the subject and predicate systems use the MCS technology (Molecular Correlation Spectroscopy) and measure the ratio of 13 CO2/1CO2 in exhaled breath prior to and after administration of the test substrate (13C-Urea). The MCS technology measures the light absorbance by infrared spectrometry, which is correlative to CO2 concentration in the breath sample. The output result in both systems is the Delta Over Baseline (DOB) and a positive/negative determination is based on the same assay cut-off (>5 DOB).
- The predicate device includes an analyzer which is connected to an external auto sampler, . enabling automatic and sequential testing of 10 pairs of breath sample bags. The modified device is based on the same analyzer as the predicate, with an integrated auto sampler, enabling four pairs of breath sample bags to be measured automatically and sequentially.
8
- The predicate device includes an external computer component to run the BreathID Lab ● Application software that communicates with the BreathID analyzer and external auto sampler. In the modified device, the computer and application software are built into the BreathID analyzer.
Summary of Performance Testing
Exalenz has performed extensive and well executed verification and validation to verify the performance of the BreathID® Smart System. The verification and validation testing program for the BreathID Smart system was designed based on the device specifications and requirements, as well as on the associated potential risks, as identified and evaluated in the risk analysis and in accordance with FDA recognized standards.
Software Verification and Validation
Software testing was conducted to evaluate the performance of the subject system and to verify that it performs according to its software requirements. Verification involved functionality testing, timing analysis, integration with the hardware, and error detection and handling. Verification was achieved by design reviews, code walkthroughs, functional testing of subcomponents and integration testing with the hardware.
System Performance and Safety Testing
The performance bench testing program consisted of the following tests:
- . Precision Tests (Precision, Repeatability and Reproducibility). Precision testing focused on the within laboratory precision/repeatability of the system and used one device, while the reproducibility test used 3 devices.
- Sample Carry-Over Test. The carry-over test was designed to demonstrate that the . system has no sample carry-over effect.
- Environmental Tests (transportation, storage and operating conditions). The specified . transportation, storage and operating conditions of the BreathID® Smart Device are identical to those of the predicate system. The environmental tests included temperature and altitude end conditions, vibrations and drop tests. The BreathID® Smart system was functionality tested several times during the Environmental test and found within the acceptance criteria.
9
- Comparison test between the predicate BreathID® Hp Lab System and the BreathID® . Smart System. A comparison test between the predicate system and the device subject of this submission ran 80 measurements on each system and statistically shows that both systems may be used interchangeably.
- Electrical safety and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) .
The above tests used contrived gases for simulating different levels of 13CO2 as a result of H. pylori infection. All the pre-defined acceptance criteria were met; therefore, it can be concluded that the BreathID® Smart System was verified to give accurate and repeatable results over time.
Conclusion:
The information submitted in this premarket notification is complete and demonstrates that the modified BreathID® Hp Lab System, the BreathID® Smart System, is as safe and effective as the predicate device and supports a substantial equivalence decision.
