Intended Use
The Respironics® Total™ Face Mask is intended to provide an interface for application of Respironics CPAP or BiPAP therapy to patients.
Device Description
The Total Face Mask is intended to provide a single-patient-use interface for adult patients (>30 kg) receiving Respironics CPAP or BiPAP therapy. The mask (Figure 1) fits over the entire face, with the rim of the mask framing the face along the hairline and jawline. The mask consists of a polycarbonate faceplate and a thin silicone cushion that folds inward, creating a flap on the inner perimeter of the mask to improve seal. The faceplate has four Velcro® hooks to which the headgear tabs attach. The modified faceplate (Figure 2) is smaller, rounder, and has a streamlined profile. (Predicate mask is larger, primarily round, with the exception of the eye area, which is squared off.) Modified mask volume is smaller at 1550 ml. (Predicate volume is 2300 ml.) Modified mask cushion material is silicone. (Predicate cushion is urethane.) Modified faceplate (Figure 2) has a nosepiece with 22-mm entrainment valve, whose accessory swivel connects to patient circuit. (Predicate faceplate has a 22-mm elbow, to which patient circuit is connected.) Entrainment valve opens to ambient air if pressure should cease. (Predicate requires use of a non-rebreathing valve (NRV).) Two built-in exhalation ports are located on the nosepiece. (Predicate's ports are located on the mask.) Nosepiece has one pressure pickoff port. (Predicate elbow has two.) The headgear consists of Velcro® straps. (Predicate headgear is a cap with Velcro straps.)
More Information

No
The device description focuses on the physical components and design modifications of a face mask for respiratory therapy, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI or ML.

No
The device is a mask that provides an interface for the application of therapy, but it is not the therapeutic device itself.

No

The device is described as an interface for applying CPAP or BiPAP therapy, which are forms of treatment, not diagnostic procedures.

No

The device description clearly details physical components like a faceplate, cushion, headgear, and valves, indicating it is a hardware device, not software-only.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to "provide an interface for application of Respironics CPAP or BiPAP therapy to patients." This describes a device used to deliver therapy, not to perform diagnostic testing on biological samples.
  • Device Description: The description details a mask designed to fit over the face and connect to a CPAP or BiPAP machine. It focuses on the physical interface and its components for delivering air pressure. There is no mention of collecting or analyzing biological samples.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: IVD devices are typically used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, tissue) to diagnose diseases, monitor conditions, or screen for health issues. This device does none of those things.

The device is clearly an interface for respiratory therapy, not a diagnostic tool.

Dear Mr. Vanella:

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 requlations 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.
