No
The summary describes a mechanical device for lung exercise and secretion clearance, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities.

Yes
The device is described as an "Expiratory Resistance Exerciser" designed to "help patients exercise their lungs properly, improve secretion clearance" as part of prescribed lung exercise treatments, indicating a therapeutic purpose.

No
The device is described as an "Expiratory Resistance Exerciser" designed to help patients "exercise their lungs properly, improve secretion clearance." This functionality falls under treatment or rehabilitation, not diagnosis. The text explicitly states its use for "lung exercise treatments," not for identifying or determining the nature of a disease or condition.

No

The device description explicitly states it is an "Expiratory Resistance Exerciser" and is designed to work with "PARI Nebulizers," indicating it is a physical hardware device, not software only.

Based on the provided information, the PARI PEP Device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The device is described as an "Expiratory Resistance Exerciser" designed to help patients exercise their lungs and improve secretion clearance. This is a therapeutic or rehabilitative function, not a diagnostic one.
  • Device Description: It's an exercise device that works with nebulizers. This further supports its role in treatment and management, not diagnosis.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Elements: There is no mention of the device being used to analyze samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) or provide information for the diagnosis of a disease or condition.

IVD devices are specifically designed to perform tests on samples taken from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment of diseases or conditions. The PARI PEP Device does not fit this description.

Dear Mr. Arrizon:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Druq, and Cosmetic Act (Act). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, qood manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations. Title 21, Parts 800 A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance to 895. with the current Good Manufacturing Practice requirements, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QC) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic (QS) inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations.
