The ComfortGel Blue Nasal Mask is intended to provide an interface for application of CPAP or bi-level therapy to patients. The mask is for single patient use in the home or multi-patient use in the hospital/institutional environment. The mask is to be used by patients (>66lbs/30kg) for whom CPAP or bi-level therapy has been prescribed.

The Respironics ComfortGel Blue Nasal Mask consists of a polycarbonate faceplate with a gel cushion encapsulated in a polyester seal for the face. The mask includes integrated exhalation features on the elbow. It is an accessory for use with CPAP and bi-level devices in the home (single patient use) and hospital/institution (multi-patient use). The ComfortGel Blue Nasal mask covers the patient's nose only. It is strapped to the patient's face using headgear which connects to the mask via slots in the forehead bracket at the top, and via ball clip headgear attachments, which fit into sockets in the mask faceplate at the bottom. The mask is connected to the CPAP or bi-level flow generator via standard 22mm patient tubing. Positive pressure ventilation is then able to be applied to the lungs in a non-invasive way.

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, pediatric and neonatal patients as prescribed by a physician. The ESPRIT Ventilator is intended for use in either invasive or noninvasive applications. The Auto-Trak option is intended for adult and pediatric patients, and automatically adjusts I-Triggers and E-Cycles breathing without the need for user adjustment of I-trigger (sensitivity) and E-cycle thresholds under changing leak conditions. The Auto-Trak option provides leak-compensated ventilation for leaks up to 60L/min.

The Respironics Esprit Ventilator is unchanged from K072450. The only change is to include the Respironics Performax Youth SE mask as an option for use by its pediatric users. This mask is the same mask design as is used by the small size of the cleared Respironics Performax SE Total Face Mask (K072588). The mask consists of a silicon cushion, polycarbonate faceplate with an elbow that contains the exhalation feature. The anthropometric profile of the Respironics Performax Youth SE mask was designed to meet the 90" percentile for pediatrics age 7 and older and > 40 lbs.

The BiPAP AutoSV Advanced is intended to provide non-invasive ventilatory support to treat adult patients with OSA and Respiratory Insufficiency caused by central and/or mixed apneas and periodic breathing.

The Respironics BiPAP AutoSV Advanced is a microprocessor controlled blower based Bi-level positive pressure system that delivers two positive pressure levels (IPAP/EPAP). The dual pressure levels provide a more natural means of delivering pressure support therapy to the patient resulting in improved patient comfort. A flow sensor and redundant pressure sensors in the patient airway feed data on measured flow and pressure into a microprocessor controller, which in turn regulates the blower assembly. A user interface displays clinical data and enables the operator to set and adjust certain clinical parameters. The BiPAP AutoSV Advanced pressure control contains various which are used to configure positive pressure therapies. With these controls, the device delivers minimum pressure support determined by the PSmin control. The device may automatically provide additional pressure support with inspiratory pressures between PSmin and PSmax to normalize patient ventilation during sleep disordered breathing events. Note: When PSmin = PSmax, this is equivalent to traditional bi-level therapy. The BiPAP AutoSV Advanced is fitted with alarms to alert the user to changes that will affect the treatment. Some of the alarms are pre-set (fixed), others are user adjustable. The BiPAP AutoSV Advanced Ventilatory Support System is intended for use with a patient circuit that is used to connect the device to the patient interface device (mask). A typical patient circuit consists of a six-foot disposable or reusable smooth lumen 22mm tubing and a method of venting exhaled gases.

The intended use of the Gas Transfill System is to provide supplemental oxygen to patients and to supply pressurized oxygen to fill gas cylinders for the patient's personal ambulatory use. The device is not intended to be life supporting nor life sustaining.

The Respironics Gas Transfill System is comprised of a high pressure oxygen compressor and an external oxygen concentrator. The oxygen concentrator provides up to 2LPM of gaseous oxygen to the high pressure oxygen compressor for filling medical oxygen cylinders. In addition, the external oxygen concentrator provides up to 3LPM of gaseous oxygen for patient breathing. The external oxygen concentrator can be one of the Respironics series of FDA cleared devices or other manufacturers FDA cleared oxygen concentrators. The patient cannot breathe directly from the high pressure oxygen compressor. The purpose of the high pressure oxygen compressor is to fill medical oxygen cylinders only.

The Comfort Twin Nasal Mask is an accessory to a non-continuous ventilator (respirator), intended for use by adult patients prescribed continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) or bi-level therapy. The mask is intended for single-patient reuse in the home environment or multi-patient, multi-use in the hospital/institutional environment.

The Comfort Twin Nasal mask is a respiratory nasal mask using a dual cushion design with built-in bellows and an inner sealing flap for improving unintentional leak. It is a multi-patient, multi- use accessory for use with CPAP or bi-level devices. The Comfort Twin mask is strapped to the patient's face covering the nose, and connected to tubing to a CPAP or bi-level flow generator. Positive pressure ventilation is then able to be applied to the lungs in a non-invasive way.
