Intended Use

GGM Breathing Circuit Bacterial Filter contains two types of bacterial Filters, namely "Bacterial Filter" with only filtering function and "HME Filter" with heat and moisture exchanger function.

Intended patient population: VF-2160, VF-2160-1 and VH-3110 are intended for adult patients with the tidal volume between 250ml-1500ml; VH-3210 is intended for adult patients with the tidal volume between 250ml-1000ml.

Bacterial Filter (VF-2160, VF-2160-1) -
The Bacterial Filter is intended to reduce the transmission of bacteria and viruses to a patient during anesthesia. For use with ventilators, anesthesia machines and open flow systems where filtration of inspired gases is desired. The Bacterial Filter is single use device for use on a single patient for up to 24hrs. The Bacterial Filter is designed to be used in hospital environments by trained personnel.

HME Filter (VH-3110, VH-3210) -
HME (Heat and Moisture Exchange) Filter is intended to reduce the transmission of bacteria and viruses to/from a patient, and to maintain moisture levels in the patient's respiratory tract during anesthesia, artificial respiration and other types of assisted ventilation.

HME Filter is normally positioned at the patient end of the breathing system between the circuits Y-piece and the catheter mount or patient airway device. HME Filter is a single use device for use on a single patient for up to 24hrs. HME Filter is designed to be used in hospital environments by trained personnel.

Device Description

GGM Breathing Circuit Bacterial Filter contains two types of bacterial filters, namely "Bacterial Filter" with only filtering function and "HME Filter" with heat and moisture exchanger function.

Bacterial Filter (models VF-2160, VF-2160-1):
Bacterial Filter is a single-used medical device, which is used for filtering the bacteria and virus in the respiratory gas to the patient during the respiratory therapy. VF-2160 and VF-2160-1 are all intended for adult patients with the tidal volume between 250ml-1500ml.

HME Filter (models VH-3110, VH-3210):
HME Filter is a kind of breathing circuit bacterial filter with the function of passive heat and moisture exchanger (artificial nose). It is a breathing circuit bacterial filter that contains electrostatic cotton for filtration and contains heat preserved and moisture absorbed paper roll for airway heat preservation and humidification. The Heat and Moisture Exchanger Filter (HMEF) should be installed on the patient's end based on the principle of passive humidification treatment. VH-3110 is intended for adult patients with the tidal volume between 250ml-1500ml, and VH-3210 is intended for adult patients with the tidal volume between 250ml-1000ml.

AI/ML Overview

Here's a breakdown of the acceptance criteria and study information for the GGM Breathing Circuit Bacterial Filter, based on the provided document:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

Note: The document lists "Methodology only, no acceptance criteria" for some tests but then states "Meet the requirements of the clinical application" or "Meet the requirements of the standard" for their results. For such cases, I've used the general "Meets standards" or "Clinical application met" as the "Reported Performance" to reflect this. For metrics where specific criteria are given, those are included.
