The PROVENT Professional Sleep Apnea Therapy Device - PROVENT 50 intended use is for the treatment of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).
Device Story
PROVENT 50 is a nasal device placed inside nostrils. It directs expiratory flow through specific pathways to increase intranasal pressure, mimicking the expiratory phase of CPAP therapy. Used for obstructive sleep apnea treatment. Device operates passively via airflow resistance; no active power source or software. Patient-applied; used during sleep. Output is physiological pressure modulation during expiration, intended to maintain airway patency and reduce apnea events.
Clinical Evidence
Non-clinical and clinical testing demonstrated substantial equivalence to the predicate device. No specific study metrics or sample sizes provided in the summary.
Technological Characteristics
Intranasal device; passive airflow resistance mechanism; 50 cm H2O sec/liter resistance specification. No electronic components, software, or external power source.
Indications for Use
Indicated for the treatment of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in patients.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
Intraoral devices for snoring and intraoral devices for snoring and obstructive sleep apnea are devices that are worn during sleep to reduce the incidence of snoring and to treat obstructive sleep apnea. The devices are designed to increase the patency of the airway and to decrease air turbulence and airway obstruction. The classification includes palatal lifting devices, tongue retaining devices, and mandibular repositioning devices.
Special Controls
*Classification.* Class II (special controls). The special control for these devices is the FDA guidance document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Intraoral Devices for Snoring and/or Obstructive Sleep Apnea; Guidance for Industry and FDA.”

# Device Description
The PROVENT device is placed just inside the nostrils. The device directs expiratory flow through selected pathways, which increases intranasal pressure similar to the expiratory portion of the breathing cycle during CPAP use.
## Indications for Use
For the treatment of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).
## Performance Data
Non-clinical and clinical testing demonstrated substantial equivalence of the PROVENT 50 device to the predicate device when used according to its intended use.
