Date Summary Prepared
KnightControl CPAP Remote Control Non continuous ventilator (21 CFR 868.5905, Product Code BZD)
#### Device Information
The KnightControl is an optional accessory that provides remote control capabilities when used in conjunction with the GoodKnight 418, GoodKnight 420, GoodKnight 425, and Knightstar 330 and is intended for use by a clinician in hospital/sleep laboratory settings where patients suffering from obstructive sleep appea are diagnosed and treated.
{1}------------------------------------------------
#### Predicate Device Equivalence
This device is substantially equivalent to the ResControl II Remote Control cleared for commercial distribution in K040944. The predicate device is a remote control and data monitoring device intended for use with CPAP systems in the diagnosis and treatment of adult obstructive sleep apnea. It is intended to be used by clinicians in hospital and sleep laboratory environments and is not intended for lifesustaining applications.
Testing was performed to demonstrate that the performance of the KnightControl in its intended environment is as safe and effective as that of the legally marketed predicate device. The safety and effectiveness of the KnightControl was verified through performance related testing that consisted of Electrical Safety, Electromagnetic Compatibility, and Mechanical and Environmental Testing. The KnightControl was found compliant and has been certified to the standards referenced in the "FDA Reviewer Guidance for Premarket Notifications".
#### Device Description
The KnightControl is designed to control the GoodKnight 418, GoodKnight 420, GoodKnight 425, and Knightstar 330 devices in hospital, sleep laboratories, or other clinical settings.
The KnightControl is powered by AC mains (100 VAC to 240 VAC nominal). The KnightControl is doubleinsulated so that grounding is not required.
The KnightControl is set up for use by the clinician according to the instructions provided in the manual. The devices are operated according to the instructions contained in their respective Patient Manual and Clinical Manual.
The KnightControl relies on a microprocessor for setting and viewing main control parameters and status of the attached device, and turning features on and off. The microprocessor is also required for getting data of some signals from the devices in order to output these signals to allow these signals to be recorded.
The KnightControl is linked via an RS232 serial port to one of the following devices: GoodKnight 418 series, GoodKnight 420 series, GoodKnight 425 series, or Knightstar 330.
The KnightControl uses software to recognize the device to which it is connected and automatically adapt its menu to the device.
The KnightControl is not for use in life-supporting or life-sustaining situations. The device and it's accessories are not intended for sterile use.
The KnightControl is for multiple use. The KnightControl contains no patient contact components.
The KnightControl is for use in by physicians, nurses, and sleep lab technicians in a clinical (hospital, sleep laboratory, etc.) environment.
The KnightControl does not contain any drugs or biological products as components.

{2}------------------------------------------------
The KnightControl is not part of a kit.
#### Indication for Use
KnightControl is a remote control for use by clinicians to adjust the GoodKnight 418, GoodKnight 420, GoodKnight 425, and Knightstar 330 devices.
#### Intended Use
The KnightControl is a wired remote control intended for use with a GoodKnight 418, GoodKnight 420, GoodKnight 425, or Knightstar 330 device.
This remote control will be used in the sleep breathing disorder patients in order to define parameters of treatment.
The KnightControl is not intended for life support or life-sustaining applications.
#### Comparison of Technological Characteristics
Both KnightControl and the ResControl II remote control devices have been designed for remote operation and monitoring of CPAP devices by clinicians in clinical environments.
The global architecture of the KnightControl is similar to the ResControl II remote control. The voltage range for the KnightControl is 100 VAC to 240 VAC or 12 VDC. The KnightControl is doubleinsulated.
Both the ResControl II and the KnightControl use a microprocessor to set the various controls.
The user interface of the KnightControl and the ResControl control control are quite similar. Both devices use an LCD screen with button keypad to access and view various device settings, and output signals for polysomnograph data recording. Available settings on the KnightControl depend upon the connected therapeutic device and the mode of operation.
{3}------------------------------------------------
## Summary of Performance Testing
- 1. Functional testing was performed to confirm that the KnightControl is capable of meeting its stated performance specifications. The device passed all tests.
- 2. Testing was performed to confirm that the KnightControl complies with the November 1993 draft "Reviewer Guidance for Premarket Notification Submissions" published by the Division of Cardiovascular, Respiratory, and Neurological Devices. The device passed all tests.
#### Conclusions
We conclude that the KnightControl meets the stated performance specifications and criteria referenced above. We conclude that the device and its accessories will operate safely in its intended environment and will be effective in fulfilling its intended use.
