Yes
The device is indicated for patients to aid in the prevention and treatment of complications of immobility, and provides therapies such as pulsation, percussion, vibration, and continuous lateral rotation.
No
The device description and intended use indicate it is a patient care system designed to aid in the prevention and treatment of complications of immobility and support patient positioning, particularly for bariatric patients. It provides therapies such as pulsation, percussion, vibration, and continuous lateral rotation. There is no mention of it being used to diagnose conditions or diseases.
No
The device description clearly outlines a physical medical device (a bariatric patient care system with a mattress, frames, and inflatable cushions) that provides physical therapies like turning, pulsation, and vibration/percussion. It is not solely software.
Based on the provided information, the BariAir bed is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
- BariAir Function: The BariAir bed is a patient care system designed to support and position bariatric patients, provide pressure relief, and offer therapies like pulsation, percussion, and turning. It interacts directly with the patient's body externally.
- No Specimen Analysis: The description of the BariAir bed does not mention any analysis of biological specimens.
Therefore, the BariAir bed falls under the category of a medical device used for patient support and therapy, not for in vitro diagnostic testing.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The BariAir device is a hospital bed system designed to support patients whose weights exceed standard hospital bed weight limitations or whose weight and size cannot be managed by the nursing staff. BariAir combines the flexible patient-positioning capabilities and built-in scale feature of the predicate device with a pressure relieving. low-air-loss mattress system that is designed to help in the prevention of skin breakdown and decubitus ulcers caused by prolonged patient immobility.
The BariAir bed is indicated for patients weighing up to 850 pounds to aid in the prevention and treatment of complications of immobility. Particularly:
- · patients who would benefit from a prossure relieving surface with the additional benefits of pulsation, percussion and/or continuous or regular turning from side to side.
- · patients whose body weight and size pose a significant risk of injury to the patient or nursing staff during the performance of routinc nursing care procedures.
BairAir is contraindicated for patients with unstable spinal cord injuries.

Device Description
BariAir is a bariatric patient care system that combines the flexible patient-positioning capabilities of the predicato device (BariKare Plus) with a pressure relieving, dynamic low-air-loss mattress. The BariAir mattess is a three-section air mattress consisting of a scries of transverse, inflatable cushions that can be alternately inflated and deflated to provide pulsation therapy, four turning bladders to rotate the patient side to side, and an air bladder beneath the patient chest region cushions to provide vibration/percussion therapy. The BariAir device includes support and caster frames substantially the same as the predicate device.
BariAir also provides continuous lateral rotation therapy, automatically turning the patient, as well as other adjunct therapies such as pulsation and vibration/percussion.
