Device Facts

• Record ID: K100995
• Device Name: SHIKANI SPEAKING VALVE
• Applicant: Shikani Medical, LLC
• Product Code: JOH · Anesthesiology
• Decision Date: Jun 25, 2010
• Decision: SESE
• Submission Type: Traditional
• Regulation: 21 CFR 868.5800
• Device Class: Class 2
• Attributes: Therapeutic

Intended Use

To allow airflow over the vocal cords for speaking function. To be used with a standard 15 mm connection on tracheostomy tubes.

Device Story

Shikani speaking valve is a passive, ball-type check valve; attaches to standard 15 mm tracheostomy tube connectors. Device allows patient to inhale through tracheostomy tube; ball mechanism closes during exhalation, directing airflow through vocal cords to facilitate phonation. Used in hospital, sub-acute, or home settings by tracheostomy patients. Healthcare providers or patients use the device to restore speech function. Output is mechanical airflow redirection; clinical decision-making involves assessing patient's ability to tolerate valve and maintain airway patency. Benefits include improved communication for tracheostomy patients.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Performance data from original submission K982128 demonstrated equivalence in flow resistance and weight. Biocompatibility testing performed according to ISO 10993; materials passed.

Technological Characteristics

Housing: Celcon C251-A Acetyl Copolymer; Ball: Nylon 6/6 Grade 2; Pin: 316 Stainless steel. Mechanical ball-type check valve. Standard 15 mm/22 mm connections per ISO 5356-1. Weight: 32 gm. No software or electronic components.

Indications for Use

Indicated for tracheostomy patients requiring airflow over vocal cords for speech. Contraindicated for use with inflated tracheostomy tube cuffs, unconscious patients, or patients unable to exhale around the tracheostomy tube/cuff and through the upper airway. Not for in-line ventilator use.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A tracheostomy tube and tube cuff is a device intended to be placed into a surgical opening of the trachea to facilitate ventilation to the lungs. The cuff may be a separate or integral part of the tracheostomy tube and is, when inflated, intended to establish a seal between the tracheal wall and the tracheostomy tube. The cuff is used to prevent the patient's aspiration of substances, such as blood or vomit, or to provide a means for positive-pressure ventilation of the patient. This device is made of either stainless steel or plastic.

### Device Description

The Shikani speaking valve consists of a plastic housing with a captured ball that acts as a check valve. Once attached to the tracheostomy tube connector the speaking valve allows the patient to inhale through the tracheostomy tube and exhale across the vocal cords which facilitates speech or phonation.

### Indications for Use

To allow airflow over the vocal cords for speaking function. To be used with a standard 15 mm connection on tracheostomy tubes.

### Environment of Use

Home, Hospital, Sub-acute Institutions

#### Performance Testing

Performance testing which was used in the original submission K982128 was:

- Resistance to flow comparison to predicates demonstrated that the values were . equivalent
- Weight comparison to predicates demonstrated that the values were equivalent .
- Biocompatibility according to ISO 10993 was performed and the materials passed .

The proposed device meeting and passed all the performance testing as outlined above and thus demonstrated substantial equivalence.

Dear Mr. Dryden:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
