Intended Use
The ESPRIT ventilator is a microprocessor controlled, electrically powered, mechanical ventilator. It is intended for use by qualified medical personnel in providing continuous or intermittent ventilatory support for adult and pediatric patients as prescribed by a physician. The ESPRIT Ventilator is intended for use in either invasive or non-invasive applications.
Device Description
The ESPRIT ventilator is a microprocessor controlled, electrically powered, mechanical ventilator. The specific features of the product include: - . Breathing system under microprocessor control. - · User interface under microprocessor control. Uses "hyman interface" features associated with touch screen and graphical user interface technology. The specifics of the particular touch screen technology and its suitability to medical applications is covered in more detail in the principle of operation section. - · Integral air source is built into the ventilator, eliminating the requirement for a central compressor and piped, medical grade wall air and/or an individual, stand alone compressor for each ventilator. The product will also be offered in a configuration without the blower in which case it will operate from a wall air supply. - · Ability to provide variable oxygen concentrations (21% to 100% O2) from a 35 to 80 PSIG medical grade, oxygen gas source, including medical grade gas cylinders with suitable regulators. - · Ability to operate on a re-chargeable primary battery for 30 minutes (nominal). - · Ability to be powered by a secondary DC power source (24 VDC) for up to 3 hours. - · Provide high product quality and reliability. ESPRIT has been designed using Highly Accelerated Life Testing (HALT), coupled with Environment Stress Screening (ESS) during manufacturing. Studies have shown that these techniques greatly eliminate reliability problems and are integral to the reliability of the product.

Not Found

No
The document describes a microprocessor-controlled ventilator with standard features and testing, but there is no mention of AI or ML algorithms for control, analysis, or decision-making.

Yes
The device is a ventilator, which provides ventilatory support to patients. This directly addresses medical conditions by assisting or replacing respiratory function, indicating a therapeutic purpose.

No

The device is a mechanical ventilator used for providing ventilatory support, not for diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "microprocessor controlled, electrically powered, mechanical ventilator" with features like an integral air source, battery operation, and the ability to provide variable oxygen concentrations, all of which are hardware components.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device is a mechanical ventilator for providing ventilatory support to patients. This is a life support device, not a device used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or compatibility testing.
  • Device Description: The description focuses on the mechanical and electrical aspects of the ventilator, its power sources, and its control systems. There is no mention of analyzing biological samples or providing diagnostic information based on such analysis.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The text does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing blood, urine, tissue, or other bodily fluids.
    • Detecting specific analytes (e.g., glucose, enzymes, antibodies).
    • Providing diagnostic results or information for monitoring disease progression.

The device is a therapeutic device used to assist breathing, not a diagnostic device used to analyze biological samples.

Re: K981072 Esprit Ventilator Requlatory Class: II (two) Product Code: 73 CBK Dated: August 14, 1998 Received: August 18, 1998

Dear Mr. Woodring:

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 legally marketed predicate 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.
