Intended Use
The intended use of the Esprit Ventilator Neonatal Option is to provide continuous or intermittent ventilatory support for the care of individuals who require mechanical ventilation. The intended patient population includes intubated neonatal patients with an ideal body weight range from 0.5 kg to 6.5 kg and an endotracheal tube I.D. range from 2.5 – 4.0 mm.
Device Story
Esprit Ventilator Neonatal Option is a software-based modification to the existing Esprit Ventilator; enables neonatal-specific ventilation modes. Input: patient physiological parameters; Output: controlled mechanical ventilation. Modes include Assist/Control, SIMV, CPAP, Pressure-Controlled (PC), Pressure Support (PS), and Apnea Ventilation. Used in clinical settings for invasive applications; operated by qualified medical personnel. Software algorithms control breath delivery; healthcare providers monitor output to adjust ventilatory support. Benefits include expanded patient population coverage for neonates requiring respiratory assistance.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Software verification and validation testing performed per FDA guidance. Performance testing confirmed that all design and system-level requirements for the Neonatal Option were met.
Technological Characteristics
Software-based modification to existing Esprit Ventilator. Breath delivery controlled by software algorithms equivalent to those in reference device K981072. Supports invasive ventilation modes: A/C, SIMV, CPAP, PC, PS, and Apnea ventilation. No new hardware or technological characteristics introduced.
Indications for Use
Indicated for intubated neonatal patients (0.5 kg to 6.5 kg ideal body weight; 2.5–4.0 mm endotracheal tube I.D.) requiring continuous or intermittent mechanical ventilatory support.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A continuous ventilator (respirator) is a device intended to mechanically control or assist patient breathing by delivering a predetermined percentage of oxygen in the breathing gas. Adult, pediatric, and neonatal ventilators are included in this generic type of device.

### 16.1 Device Description:
The Neonatal Option is a software modification to the currently marketed Esprit Ventilator. Once the software is enabled and the neonatal patient type is selected on the Esprit, it provides the following types of ventilatory support to neonatal patients in invasive applications only:
- Assist/Control, Spontaneous Intermittent Mandatory Ventilation (SIMV) or . Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) modes of ventilation.
- Pressure-Controlled (PC). Available in A/C and SIMV. .
- Pressure Support (PS). Available in SIMV and SPONT. .
- . Apnea Ventilation
Note: certain features of the currently marketed Esprit are not available to neonatal patient types. Refer to the Neonatal Option instructional information for details.
{1}------------------------------------------------
#### Intended Use: 16.2
The currently marketed Esprit ventilator is intended for use by qualified medical rne ourrelity many many or intermittent ventilatory support for adult and performer and prescribed by a physician. It is intended for use in either invasive or non-invasive applications.
With the Neonatal Option, the intended patient population is expanded to include intubated neonatal patients with an ideal body weight range from 0.5 kg to 6.5 kg and an endotracheal tube I.D. range from 2.5 - 4.0 mm.
The Esprit Ventilator is not intended for use as an emergency transport ventilator. It is not intended for use in the presence of flammable anæsthetics. PLVC is a prescription use device that is intended for sale by or on the order of a physician.
#### Technological Characteristics: 16.3
The addition of the Neonatal Option to the currently marketed Esprit does not result in the use of any new technological characteristics. Breath delivery is controlled by software algorithms that are equivalent to those used on the currently marketed Respironics Esprit ventilator (reference K981072).
## Determination of Substantial Equivalence: 16.4
The modes/types of ventilation on the Esprit Ventilator with Neonatal Option are similar to those on other currently marketed continuous ventilators. The modified Esprit has similar performance characteristics, similar intended use and similar patient populations to the predicate devices. The addition of the Neonatal Option does not raise new questions of safety or effectiveness. The labeling and instructional information for the Neonatal Option is similar to that of the predicate devices.
#### 16.5 Summary of Performance Testing:
Software verification and validation testing was performed per FDA's Guidance for the Content of Premarket Submissions for Software contained in Medical Devices (1998). Performance testing was successfully completed demonstrating that all design and system level requirements for the Esprit Ventilator with Neonatal Option have been met.
#### 16.6 Conclusion:
The addition of the Neonatal Option to the Esprit Ventilator does not raise new questions of safety and effectiveness when compared to the legally marketed predicate devices.
