Intended Use

The BiPAP Auto delivers positive airway pressure therapy for the treatment of Obstructive Sleep Apnea. The device is for use in the home or hospital/institutional environment on adult patients.

Device Story

BiPAP Auto is a microprocessor-controlled, blower-based bi-level positive airway pressure system. It delivers two distinct pressure levels (IPAP/EPAP) to provide pressure support therapy. The device features an Auto Bi-Level mode that automatically adjusts IPAP and EPAP levels based on patient needs, and a Split Night Auto Bi-Level mode that limits pressure during initial diagnostic recording before transitioning to auto-adjusting therapy. It may also utilize a Bi-Flex feature for pressure relief during exhalation. The device is used in home or hospital environments by adult patients. Healthcare providers use the device to treat Obstructive Sleep Apnea; the auto-adjusting pressure capability aims to maintain therapeutic efficacy while improving patient comfort and compliance. The system connects to a patient interface (mask) via a standard patient circuit (tubing and exhalation device).

Clinical Evidence

Clinical efficacy study demonstrated that the Auto Bi-Level mode is as effective as manually titrated bi-level positive airway pressure. Performance indicators showed that Auto Bi-Level therapy maintains lower average treatment pressures (IPAP/EPAP) compared to fixed-pressure therapy, and AHI remained below 10 during polysomnography.

Technological Characteristics

Microprocessor-controlled blower-based bi-level system. Delivers IPAP/EPAP. Includes Bi-Flex pressure relief. Complies with IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, ISO 10993-1, and IEC 68-2 series (vibration/shock). Software life cycle processes comply with ANSI/AAMI SW-68:2001.

Indications for Use

Indicated for adult patients with Obstructive Sleep Apnea requiring positive airway pressure therapy. For use in home or hospital/institutional settings.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A noncontinuous ventilator (intermittent positive pressure breathing-IPPB) is a device intended to deliver intermittently an aerosol to a patient's lungs or to assist a patient's breathing.

Design modifications have been made to the BiPAP Pro 2 with Bi-Flex for this submission, including the incorporation of several REMstar Auto with C-Flex device features, to create the BiPAP Auto. None of the modifications affect the safety or effectiveness of the device. {1}------------------------------------------------ The following changes have been made: - The Auto therapy algorithm present in the REMstar Auto with C-Flex CPAP System (K041010) has been added to the device to create the Auto Bi-level mode that automatically adjusts the IPAP and EPAP levels to meet the patient's needs. - The Split Night mode (split night study feature) has been added to the device. The Split Night . mode limits the pressure during the first portion of the night to allow diagnostic recording; thereafter the pressure responds to the patient's needs to provide an assessment of therapeutic requirements. The Split Night mode (split night study feature) is based on the Split Night Auto CPAP mode (split night study feature) currently cleared by the FDA in K041010 (REMstar Auto with C-Flex CPAP System). #### Indications for Use The BiPAP Auto-aystem delivers positive airway pressure therapy for the treatment of Obstructive Sleep Apnea-eelly: The device is for use in the home or hospital/institutional environment on adult patients. #### Device Description The Respironics BiPAP Auto is a microprocessor controlled blower based bi-level positive pressure system that delivers two different 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. Two modes are being introduced, which include the Auto Bi-Level mode and Split Night Auto Bi-Level mode. Bi-Level therapy with automatically adjusting IPAP and EPAP levels is delivered in the Auto Bi-Level mode. The Split Night Auto Bi-Level mode limits the pressure during the first portion of the night to allow diagnostic recording; thereafter the pressure responds to the patient's needs to provide an assessment of therapeutic requirements. Pressure relief upon exhalation (Bi-Flex feature) may be enabled during Auto Bi-Level therapy. The BiPAP Auto 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, an exhalation device, and a patient interface device. {2}------------------------------------------------ ## Performance testing An extensive collection of tests has been conducted and successfully completed, including clinical efficacy, safety, performance and comparative tests. Declarations of conformance to the FDA Recognized list of consensus standards have been provided in support of the safety and effectiveness of the BiPAP Auto. This list of performance testing included in the submittal is as follows: - IEC 60601-1: 1988 + A1: 1991 + A2: 1995 Medical Electrical Equipment -- Part 1: General .

The following performance indicators additionally demonstrate the clinical efficacy of the Auto Bi-Level therapy: Auto Bi-Level therapy maintains lower average treatment pressures (as defined by average IPAP and average EPAP as compared to manually titrated fixed pressure bi-level therapy), and the AHI will remain below 10 during polysomnography. Additional testing has been performed to ensure safety & effectiveness of the BIPAP Auto. This testing involves the unit, module, and functional testing of the software of the device (firmware).
