More Information

Not Found

Not Found

No
The summary describes a standard peak flowmeter and explicitly states that AI, DNN, or ML were not found in the document.

No
The device measures a physiological parameter (peak expiratory flow rate) but does not provide therapy or treatment for the respiratory conditions mentioned. Its purpose is diagnostic or monitoring, not therapeutic.

Yes
The device is described as measuring the peak expiratory flow rate for patients with respiratory conditions, which is used to assess and monitor a patient's health status, making it a diagnostic tool.

No

The device is described as a "Peak Flowmeter," which is a physical device used to measure peak expiratory flow rate. The summary does not mention any software-only component or function.

Based on the provided information, the AirZone Peak Flowmeter is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD).

Here's why:

  • IVDs are used to examine specimens taken from the human body. The AirZone Peak Flowmeter measures peak expiratory flow rate directly from the patient's breath, which is a physiological measurement, not a specimen analysis.
  • The intended use describes measuring a physiological function. The device measures how fast a patient can exhale, which is a direct measurement of lung function.
  • There is no mention of analyzing biological samples. The description and intended use do not involve blood, urine, tissue, or any other bodily fluid or substance.

Therefore, the AirZone Peak Flowmeter falls under the category of a medical device used for monitoring a physiological parameter, not an IVD.

K982334 Re : AirZone Peak Flowmeter Regulatory Class: II (two) Product Code: 73 BZH Dated: October 28, 1998 Received: October 30, 1998

Dear Mr. Wilkinson:

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 Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in assumptions. 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.
