The demand valve is used for the application of 100 vol% oxygen during manual ventilation with the resuscitator bag, as well as during direct non-invasive inhalation with the resuscitator mask in spontaneously breathing patients.
The valve, non - rebreathing QualityFlow O2 demand valve is a medical device to deliver medical oxygen or a medical air - oxygen mixture to a patient on demand. Unlike continuous oxygen systems, the demand valve only supplies medical gas when the patient inhales, reducing oxygen consumption and ensuring the patient receives gas only when needed. The QualityFlow O2 Demand Valve from DEHAS consists of a membrane that is activated by negative pressure during inspiration and a valve mechanism that controls gas flow. During inspiration, the valve opens due to the movement of the membrane, while during expiration it is closed by a return spring. The function of the demand valve is based on providing gas only when a negative pressure is applied to the membrane, e.g. by the patient inhaling with a connected mask or suction of the resuscitator when connected (expansion after previous compression of the resuscitator). The valve therefore ensures that gas only flows when it is needed.
The provided document is a 510(k) Premarket Notification for a medical device called "QualityFlow O2 Demand Valve". This type of submission aims to demonstrate that a new device is substantially equivalent to a legally marketed predicate device, and thus does not require clinical studies in many cases.
Based on the provided text, the device in question (QualityFlow O2 Demand Valve) is a mechanical device, not an AI/software-driven one. Therefore, the questions related to AI/MRMC studies, training/test sets, ground truth establishment by experts, and adjudication methods are not applicable to this submission. The "acceptance criteria" discussed in this document refer to the device's ability to meet various engineering, safety, and performance standards, rather than diagnostic accuracy metrics common for AI/ML devices.

This product is intended for use as an in-line pressure relief device, designed to limit the system pressure within the limits of its stated technical specifications.
This product is indicated for patients in a hospital for use by appropriately qualified healthcare professionals.
The F&P Optiflow Flow Diverter is intended for use as an in-line pressure relief device, designed to limit the system pressure when used with the compatible F&P Optiflow Oxygen Kits and nasal interfaces.
The F&P Flow Diverter is placed between the flow meter and the dryline during use. It is a multi-patient use prescription-only device, provided in a non-sterile state. It operates at flow rates between 5 to 70 L/min and is intended to be used by appropriately qualified healthcare professionals in hospitals.
When an anesthesia mask is applied over the Optiflow Switch interface, the respiratory gas no longer has a pathway to flow through the nasal interface to the patient. This will trigger respiratory gas flow to be diverted into the atmosphere.
The medical device in question is the "F&P Optiflow™ Flow Diverter", a nonrebreathing valve (Product Code: CBP).

This device is used as a physical barrier for mouth to mouth resuscitation. The use of this device does not guarantee complete protection from disease transmission.
Not Found
I am sorry, but the provided text from the FDA 510(k) clearance letter for the "CPR Face Shield" (K192285) does not contain any information about a study proving the device meets acceptance criteria.
The document is a standard FDA clearance letter, which confirms that the device is "substantially equivalent" to legally marketed predicate devices. It discusses regulatory matters such as registration, listing, manufacturing practices, and adverse event reporting.
Therefore, I cannot fulfill your request to describe the acceptance criteria and the study that proves the device meets the acceptance criteria, as this information is not present in the provided text.
The document details:
- The device name: CPR Face Shield
- Regulation Number: 21 CFR 868.5870 (Nonrebreathing Valve)
- Regulatory Class: Class II
- Product Code: CBP
- Indications for Use: "This device is used as a physical barrier for mouth to mouth resuscitation. The use of this device does not guarantee complete protection from disease transmission."
None of these sections imply or describe performance studies with acceptance criteria as one would expect for an AI/software as a medical device (SaMD) or other complex diagnostic/therapeutic device. For a simple physical barrier like a CPR face shield, the "acceptance criteria" for FDA clearance primarily revolve around substantial equivalence to existing devices, safety considerations inherent to its material and design, and its stated intended use. A formal "study" with the characteristics you outlined (test sets, experts, MRMC, etc.) would not typically be required or relevant for this type of device.

The Seal Rite Non-Rebreathing Valve is a single-use, non-sterile device intended to be used with a ventilation mask (without oxygen port) to provide mouth-to-mask ventilation to health emergency victims requiring cardiopulmonary resuscitation ("CPR") rescue techniques. It is intended for over-the-counter use.
The Seal Rite™ Non-Rebreathing Valve ("Seal Rite Valve") is a resuscitation valve designed for resuscitation using expired air for ventilation. It has fittings on the grooved patient end that will adapt to standard masks (22 mm ID) used for resuscitation. The Seal Rite Valve allows the rescuer to blow air into a mask through its silicone one-way valve and directs the patient's exhaled air away from the rescuer via a rigid one-way valve and multiple exhaust ports. The Seal Rite Valve helps protect the rescuer from potential patient contamination. The Seal Rite Valve does not have an oxygen port.
The provided text is a 510(k) summary for the Seal Rite Non-Rebreathing Valve (K152521). It describes the device, its intended use, and the testing conducted to establish its substantial equivalence to a predicate device.

The exhalation valves are used to control Inspiratory pressure and expel the expired air from a patient being ventilated via a single limb breathing system. The exhalation valve and single limb breathing systems are used with adults/pediatrics and prescribed by a physician. A pediatric is defined as 10 kg in weight. The product is not for use in neonates. The device can be used within hospitals and for home care use. It is a single patient use device and can be used for a maximum of 30 days.
Double limb breathing systems comprising of an inspiratory and expiratory limb is commonly used for respiratory care. To reduce waste and clutter single limb breathing systems can be used with an exhalation valve to dispel exhaled air from the patient. Some ventilator designs or specifications do not require proximal pressure monitoring; airway pressure is monitored inside the ventilator. There are three variants of the exhalation valve in this submission.
Exhalation valve with proximal pressure port (1924501 &1924504): A single breathing tube connects the patient to the ventilator allowing the patient to receive respiratory care. The exhalation valve is connected at the patient end onto the breathing tube. A pressure monitor line and exhalation valve control line directly connects the valve to the ventilator. Via exhalation valve control line, the ventilator applies a pressure which controls the balloon valve. During the Inspiratory phase the balloon is inflated to close off the exhalation port in the valve body. During the expiratory phase the pressure is released in the valve chamber and the balloon deflates allowing air to be expelled to the surrounding environment via the exhalation port. This prevents the patient rebreathing exhaled gases yet allowing for a single limb breathing system to be used instead of a double limb system. The pressure line monitors the pressure in the valve body. The patient end of the exhalation valve has a swivel connector end.
Exhalation valve without proximal proximal prossure port (1923500): A single breathing tube connects the patient to the ventilator allowing the patient to receive respiratory care. The exhalation valve is connected at the patient end onto the breathing tube. An exhalation valve control line directly connects the valve to the ventilator. Via the exhalation valve control line, the ventilator applies a pressure which controls the balloon valve. During the Inspiratory phase the balloon is inflated to close off the exhalation port in the valve body. During the expiratory phase the pressure is released in the valve chamber and the balloon deflates allowing air to be expelled to the surrounding environment via the exhalation port. This prevents the patient rebreathing exhaled gases vet allowing for a single limb breathing system to be used instead of a double limb system. The patient end of the exhalation valve has a swivel connector end.
Different ventilators require valves which work with different pressure ratios. The MKIII exhalation valve (1923500 and 1924501) has a 1:1.5 pressure ratio which caters for the majority of ventilators. However, there are markets which have applications for ratio of 1:1, and 1:2. The MK3b exhalation valve (1924504) has a 1:2 pressure ratio. The pressure ratio is the pressure difference between the control line pressure and the pressure that will be generated on the patient side of the valve.
This K132143 submission describes the Intersurgical Exhalation Valve (MK3 and MK3b models) and demonstrates its substantial equivalence to a predicate device (Intersurgical 1922500 exhalation valve) through non-clinical testing.
Here's a breakdown of the requested information:
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
The submission does not explicitly list "acceptance criteria" in a numerical format that would typically be seen for a device like software. Instead, it presents a comparison of key performance characteristics between the new devices and the predicate, implying that performance comparable to the predicate is the acceptance criteria for substantial equivalence. The "Acceptance Criteria" below are inferred from the predicate's performance or internal requirements.
| Characteristic Compared | Acceptance Criteria (Inferred from Predicate/Internal req.) | MK3 Exhalation Valve (1923500 non-ported & 1924501 ported) Performance | MK3b Exhalation Valve (1924504 ported) Performance |

| Standards Met | ISO 5356 (Connectors) | ISO 5356 (Connectors) | ISO 5356 (Connectors) |
2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance
The submission describes non-clinical laboratory testing. There is no mention of a "test set" in the context of clinical data or patient samples. The tests were performed on the device prototypes themselves. The data provenance is laboratory testing conducted by Intersurgical Incorporated. There is no mention of country of origin for specific test data, but the company is based in Liverpool, NY, USA. The testing is prospective for the new devices, demonstrating their performance.
3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts
Not applicable. This is a non-clinical device performance study based on engineering specifications and physical measurements, not a diagnostic study requiring expert interpretation of results or establishment of "ground truth" as it would pertain to medical imaging or diagnostics.
4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set
Not applicable, as this is a non-clinical device performance study with objective measurements, not a study requiring adjudication of expert opinions.
5. If a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance
Not applicable. This is a medical device (exhalation valve) and not an AI or diagnostic imaging device that would typically undergo MRMC studies.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
Not applicable. This is a mechanical medical device, not an algorithm.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)
For this non-clinical study, the "ground truth" is defined by established engineering principles, international standards (e.g., ISO 5356-1, ISO 10993-1), and the performance characteristics of the legally marketed predicate device. For example, resistance to flow is measured against a standard, and biocompatibility is confirmed against ISO 10993. The "performance" of the predicate device serves as a benchmark for substantial equivalence.
8. The sample size for the training set
Not applicable. There is no concept of a "training set" for a physical medical device submission of this nature. The devices themselves are the "samples" produced and tested.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established
Not applicable. No training set as per item 8.
