Intended Use
The SULLIVAN VPAP II ST-A System is intended to assist the ventilation of spontaneously breathing adult patients with respiratory insufficiency and/or obstructive sleep apnea. The patient is expected to have no more than minor and transient adverse effects if ventilation is not provided for extensive periods, for example overnight. The System is intended for patients who have adequate mental and physical capabilities, allowing them to quickly remove the mask in the case of system failure. The system is intended for use in the hospital or home.

Not Found

No
The provided 510(k) summary does not contain any keywords or descriptions related to AI or ML technology.

Yes
The device is intended to assist the ventilation of spontaneously breathing adult patients with respiratory insufficiency and/or obstructive sleep apnea, which directly addresses a health condition.

No
The device is described as assisting ventilation for spontaneously breathing patients, indicating a therapeutic or supportive function rather than a diagnostic one.

No

The description refers to a "System" and "ventilation," which strongly implies hardware components like a ventilator and mask, not just software.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is for assisting the ventilation of spontaneously breathing adult patients. This is a therapeutic and life-support function, not a diagnostic one.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Activity: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) outside the body to obtain diagnostic information. IVDs are specifically designed for this purpose.
  • Device Description (Not Found): While the description is missing, the intended use is the primary indicator of whether a device is an IVD.
  • Other Sections: The absence of information about image processing, AI/ML, imaging modality, and performance studies related to diagnostic accuracy further supports that this is not an IVD.

In summary, the SULLIVAN VPAP II ST-A System is a respiratory support device, not a diagnostic device.

Dear Mr. Dudevoir:

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, Drug, 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, good 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 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the current Good Manufacturing Practice requirements, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) 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.
