Intended Use
The AeroNeb™ II Portable Nebulizer is intended for breath-triggered nebulization of aerosolized medications prescribed by a physician.
Device Description
The AeroNeb™ II is a battery operated hand-held portable nebulizer using the same materials and piezoelectric vibration aerosol generator technology as the predicate device.
More Information

No
The summary describes a portable nebulizer using piezoelectric vibration technology and makes no mention of AI or ML.

Yes
The device is described as "breath-triggered nebulization of aerosolized medications prescribed by a physician," which directly implies its use in administering medication for therapeutic purposes.

No
The device is a nebulizer intended for the delivery of aerosolized medications, not for diagnosis.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "battery operated hand-held portable nebulizer" using "piezoelectric vibration aerosol generator technology," indicating it is a physical hardware device, not software only.

Based on the provided information, the AeroNeb™ II Portable Nebulizer is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for "breath-triggered nebulization of aerosolized medications prescribed by a physician." This describes a device used to deliver medication to a patient, not a device used to examine specimens from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment.
  • Device Description: The description focuses on the mechanism of aerosol generation and power source, not on analyzing biological samples.
  • Lack of IVD Indicators: There is no mention of analyzing biological fluids (blood, urine, etc.), chemical reactions, or any other processes typically associated with in vitro diagnostics.

The device is clearly intended for therapeutic delivery of medication, which falls under a different category of medical devices than IVDs.

Summary of Performance Studies

Non-clinical performance tests were conducted comparing AeroNeb™ II to the FPT Nebulizer. The performance evaluations including nebulizer delivery characterization, electrical, and EMC safety, were based on those suggested in the FDA CDRH - REVIEWER GUIDANCE FOR NEBULIZERS, METERED DOSE INHALERS, SPACERS AND ACTUATORS issued on: October 1, 1993. The successful tests demonstrated the device consistently performed within its design parameters, is as safe and effective, and performs as well as, or better than, the predicate device.
