Intended Use
The Achieva Ventilator is intended to provide ventilatory support for pediatric (Patients should weigh no less than 11 lbs. (5 kg) and adult patients who require positive pressure mechanical ventilation. The ventilator is for use in home, institutional, and portable settings. The Achieva is contraindicated for use with anesthetic gases. This device is intended to be used on the order, and under the supervision, of a physician. The Achieva Report Generator is a management and information tool, to aid in the care of patients requiring ventilatory support. The information displayed by the Report Generator software is intended to be used by healthcare professionals to supplement data obtained using established clinical procedures. The Achieva Report Generator allows users to download, view, and print ventilator performance data thave been stored in the ventilator's internal memory. Achieva Report Generator users can also capture and display a snapshot of real-time waveform data (pressure, peak flow, and volume).
Device Description
The Achieva Ventilator is a piston driven device which can deliver a wide range of volumes, inspiratory times, breath rates, oxygen concentrations, and PEEP levels. The Achieva has three operating modes (Assist/Control, SIMV, and Spontaneous) and six ventilation modes. The Achieva Ventilator is available in four different models. The Achieva PSx and Achieva PS have pressure support capability. The Achieva PSx, Achieva PS, and Achieva X have an internal oxygen blender. The Achieva PSx and Achieva X have an internal modem. The Achieva Ventilator is compatible with previously cleared Nellcor Puritan Bennett patient circuits and accessories. When AC power is unavailable, the Achieva can operate from an internal 24 VDC battery for approximately 4 hours (normal load) or an optional 24 VDC external battery for approximately 20 hours (normal load). The Achieva Ventilator is also capable of downloading data to the Achieva Report Generator for purposes of displaying and archiving ventilator data with a computer.

No
The document describes a standard mechanical ventilator and data reporting software. There is no mention of AI or ML capabilities in the intended use, device description, or performance studies.

Yes.
The device's intended use is to provide ventilatory support for patients requiring positive pressure mechanical ventilation, which directly addresses a health condition.

No.

The device is a ventilator intended to provide ventilatory support, not to diagnose a condition. The associated Report Generator helps manage and display ventilator performance data, but it does not diagnose patient conditions.

No

The primary device described is the Achieva Ventilator, which is explicitly stated to be a "piston driven device" with various hardware components (internal oxygen blender, internal modem, internal battery). While it includes software (the Achieva Report Generator) for data management, the core medical device is a physical ventilator.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices intended for use in vitro for the examination of specimens, including blood, tissue, and urine, derived from the human body, to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes.
  • Achieva Ventilator's Intended Use: The Achieva Ventilator is intended to provide ventilatory support for patients. This is a life-support function that directly interacts with the patient's respiratory system.
  • Achieva Report Generator's Intended Use: The Report Generator is a tool to manage and display ventilator performance data. It does not analyze biological specimens.

The Achieva Ventilator is a therapeutic device used to assist breathing, not a device used to analyze samples from the body for diagnostic purposes.
