Intended Use

The Wearable Breast Pump (Model S9) is intended to express milk from lactating women in order to collect milk from their breasts. The device is intended for a single user.

Device Description

The Wearable Breast Pump (Model S9), is an electrically powered wearable single breast pump consisting of the following key components: a flange, linker, silicone diaphragm, pump motor, USB cable, valve, milk collector, and bra adjustment buckle. It is designed to work in the user's bra and has a rechargeable battery so it can be used hands-free without any external power cords. The motor unit includes a press-button user interface, pump body, and LED display. Pumping can be performed on one breast (single pumping). The user interface allows the user to switch from stimulation to expression mode and control the vacuum levels within those modes. Both stimulation and expression mode consist of 5 vacuum levels. The S9 model is capable of providing vacuum levels from 40-105 mmHg with cycling rates from 75-109 cycles per minute in stimulation mode and vacuum levels from 40-245 mmHg with cycling rates from 28-85 cycles per minute in expression mode. The model S9 Wearable Breast Pump is charged with a 5 V DC adaptor and powered by an internal rechargeable lithium-ion polymer battery. The motor unit operates on embedded software updates by end-users are not supported. The subject device is for repeated use by a single user in a home environment. The device is provided not sterile.

The breast pump expresses by creating a seal around the nipple using the flange and applying and releasing suction to the nipple. The milk is collection container, which can be used for storage. To prevent milk from flowing into the vacuum system, a backflow protection membrane physically separates the milk-contacting pathway from the vacuum system.

Biocompatibility

Biocompatibility studies, including Skin Irritation Testing, Cytotoxicity, and Skin Sensitization testing were performed in accordance with the 2020 FDA guidance document Use of International Standard ISO 10993-1, "Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices – Part 1: Evaluation and testing within a risk management process" and ISO 10993- 1:2009 as follows:

  • Cytotoxicity (ISO 10993-5:2009) ●

{6}------------------------------------------------

  • Skin Sensitization (ISO 10993-10:2010) ●
  • Skin Irritation (ISO 10993-10:2010) ●

The testing supports the biocompatibility of the device. The user-contacting materials were shown to be non-cytotoxic, non-irritating, and non-sensitizing.

Electrical Safety

Testing was conducted in accordance with AAMI ANSI ES60601-1:2005/(R)2012 and A1:2012, Medical electrical equipment - Part 1: General requirements for basic safety and essential performance (IEC 60601-1:2005, MOD), IEC 62133-2:2017, Secondary cells and batteries containing alkaline or other non-acid electrolytes - Safety requirements for portable sealed secondary cells, and for batteries made from them, for use in portable applications - Part 2: Lithium systems, and IEC 60601-1-11:2015 Medical electrical equipment - Part 1-11: General requirements for basic safety and essential performance - Collateral Standard: Requirements for medical electrical equipment and medical electrical systems used in the home healthcare environment.

Electromagnetic Compatibility

Testing was conducted in accordance with IEC 60601-1-2:2014 Medical Electrical Equipment - Part 1-2: General Requirements For Basic Safety And Essential Performance - Collateral Standard: Electromagnetic Compatibility - Requirements And Tests

Software

Software was evaluated as recommended in the 2005 FDA guidance document "Guidance for the Content of Premarket Submissions for Software Contained in Medical Devices."

Other performance testing was conducted to show that the device meets its design requirements and performs as intended. The performance tests include:

  • Vacuum level verification testing at each mode/cycle demonstrated that the devices meet mode/cycle specifications.
  • Backflow protection testing was conducted to verify liquid does not backflow into the tubing. ●
  • Use life testing was conducted to demonstrate that the device maintains its specifications ● throughout its proposed use life.
  • . Battery performance testing was conducted to demonstrate that the battery remains functional during its stated battery use-life.
  • . Battery status indicator testing was conducted to demonstrate that the battery status indicator remains functional during its stated battery life.

10. Conclusion

The subject and predicate devices have the same intended use and comparable technological characteristics. The differences in technological characteristics between the subject and predicate devices do not raise different questions of safety and effectiveness. The performance data demonstrate that the subject device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
