Intended Use

The 3B Flex-Lite™ channels airflow noninvasively to a patient from a positive airway pressure (PAP) device such as a continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) or a bilevel system. The 3B Flex-Lite™ is: - to be used by adult patients (>66lb / 30 kg); (1) - to be used for single-patient reuse in the home environment and multipatient (2) reuse in the hospital/institutional environment. (3) to be used in the following environments: home, hospital, and sub-acute institutions. intended for prescription use. (4)

Device Story

3B Flex-Lite is a nasal pillow mask interface; directs airflow from CPAP or bi-level PAP device to patient nose. Device consists of nasal interface with pillows and Breath-O-Prene fabric headgear. Used in home, hospital, and sub-acute institutional settings; operated by patient or clinician. Mask incorporates four vent holes for continuous air leak to flush CO2. Device connects to PAP tubing; provides noninvasive airway pressure delivery. Healthcare providers use device to treat adult OSA or provide ventilator support. Benefits include noninvasive pressure delivery for respiratory therapy.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Performance testing conducted by Piper Medical compared 3B Flex-Lite to Nasal-Aire II. Metrics included passive exhalation port flow, resistance to flow, CO2 rebreathing percentage, and dead space measurement. Results demonstrated substantial equivalence in performance.

Technological Characteristics

Nasal pillow interface; silicone construction (ISO 10993-1 biocompatibility). Headgear made of Breath-O-Prene (laminated knit textile). Features four vent holes for CO2 flushing. Fixed leak port design. Compatible with CPAP/bi-level systems (4-20 cmH2O pressure range).

Indications for Use

Indicated for adult patients (>30kg) requiring CPAP or bi-level positive airway pressure therapy for treatment of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) or ventilator support. Contraindications: None.

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.

Trade Name: Nasal-Aire II 510(k) Number: K022465 {1}------------------------------------------------ 3B Flex-Lite Nasal Mask (K 103434) 000008 Resmed, Ltd. Manufacturer: Swift FX Trade Name: 510(k) Number: K090244 ### DEVICE DESCRIPTION The 3B Flex-Lite™ is a mask interface, of the nasal pillow variety, that directs airflow from a positive pressure device to the patient's nose. The mask is held in place with adjustable headgear that straps the mask to the face. The 3B Flex-Lite™ is safe when used under the conditions and purposes intended as indicated in the labeling provided with the product. The 3B Flex-Lite™ is a prescription device supplied non-sterile. ### INTENDED USE The 3B Flex-Lite™ channels airflow noninvasively to a patient from a positive airway pressure (PAP) device such as a continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) or a bilevel system. The 3B Flex-Lite™ is: - to be used by adult patients (>66lb / 30 kg); (1) - to be used for single-patient reuse in the home environment and multipatient (2) reuse in the hospital/institutional environment. - (3) to be used in the following environments: home, hospital, and sub-acute institutions. - intended for prescription use. (4) CONTRAINDICATIONS: None ### TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS COMPARISON The 3B Flex-Lite™ is differentiated from the predicate devices based primarily on differences in form, fit and comfort. The headgear is constructed out of Breath-O-Prene™ fabric, a laminated knit textile which serves as the loop for a Velcro fastener. Breath-O-Prene™ is a popular fabric for the CPAP headgear market used in the predicate devise Swift FX, and is also currently being used in similar applications by several other manufacturers, including Phillips Respironics GoLife Nasal Mask K110008) , Fisher & Paykel (Opus Nasal Mask K063036) and Resmed (Ultra Mirage Nasal Mask K050359). {2}------------------------------------------------ ## 3B" The nasal mask itself incorporates four vent holes to provide continuous air, leak to flush out The nask Room moorporates a rebreathed by the patient. The design of the mask and infinitize the anount of these vent-holes does not interfere with the intended performance of the mask. The 3B Flex-Lite™ nasal mask is very similar to the predicate InnoMed Nasal Aire-II mask. Both rre cannula style mask systems with similar performance characteristics. Performance bench are connula style mash by virus™ and the Nasal Aire II were conducted. These tests demonstrate testing of both the BB Tion of the proposed device with the predicate device. Copies of test reports are included in Appendix A. The 3B Flex-Lite™ is similar to the predicate Resmed Swift FX inasmuch as they have similar air The DD Fex alle - b and pillow design) and utilize the same headgear fabric (i.e. Breath-O-9car 3f3cms (inst hase phonomisons of the proposed device and the predicate devises is shown below in tabular form: ### COMPARATIVE TABLE: | FEATURES | PREDICATE NASAL-<br>AIRE II (K022465) | PREDICATE SWIFT FX<br>(K090244) | PROPOSED DEVICE 3B<br>FLEX-LITE (K103434) | |-------------------------------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Indications for Use | A patient interface<br>accessory for use with<br>CPAP and bi-level<br>systems used in the<br>treatment of adult<br>OSA and/or ventilator<br>support. | A patient interface<br>accessory for use with<br>CPAP and bi-level<br>systems used in the<br>treatment of adult<br>OSA and/or ventilator<br>support. | A patient interface<br>accessory for use with<br>CPAP and bi-level<br>systems used in the<br>treatment of adult<br>OSA and/or ventilator<br>support. | | Environment of Use | Hospitals, sub-acute<br>institutions, sleep<br>laboratories and<br>home. | Same | Same | | Patient Population | Adult | Same | Same | | Contraindications | None | None | None | | Single patient, multi-<br>use | Yes | Yes | Yes | | Components | Nasal interface (no<br>headgear) | Nasal interface with<br>pillows and headgear | Nasal interface with<br>pillows and headgear | | Dead Space | Interface - 24-28 ml /<br>Pillows 2-4 ml | Interface - 24-28 ml /<br>Pillows 2-4 ml | Interface 10.5ml<br>Pillows 3.5 ml | | Fixed leak port | Yes | Yes | Yes | 000000 {3}------------------------------------------------ | Deliverable pressure<br>range | 3-18 cmH20 | 4-20 cmH20 | 4-20 cmH20 | |---------------------------------------------|---------------------------------------------------------|---------------------------------------------------------|---------------------------------------------------------| | Materials: | | | | | Nasal Interface | Silicone | Silicone | Silicone<br>(Biocompatibility per<br>ISO 10993-1) | | Headgear | None | Breath-O-Prene™ | Breath-O-Prene™ | | Comparative testing for safety and efficacy | Flow vs. Leak Pressure<br>Dead space<br>CO2 rebreathing | Flow vs. Leak Pressure<br>Dead space<br>CO2 rebreathing | Flow vs. Leak Pressure<br>Dead space<br>CO2 rebreathing | ### Non-clinical Tests Testing of the 3B Flex-Lite™ was compared to the predicate innoMed Nasal Aire II for performance and safety. Performance testing of both the proposed device, the 3B Flex-Lite™, and the Nasal-Aire II predicate device was performed by Piper Medical. A copy of the test report dated March 23, 2011 is annexed at Appendix A. In terms of design, both the Nasal-Aire If and the proposed device are cannula style nasal interfaces, with the air flow supplied to the interface from lateral sides. The performance bench testing consisted of three sets of testing: passive exhalation port flow (App. A at p. 6), resistance to flow (App. A at p. 8), CO2 re-breathing percentage (App. at p. 9), and measurement of dead space (App. A at p. 9). Based on the results of these tests, the report finds that the 3B Flex-Lite™ is "substantially equivalent to the Nasal-Aire II in terms of performance". ### Substantial Equivalence Conclusion: 3B Flex-Lite™ is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices. It has the same intended use. It has similar technological characteristics to both predicates. It does not raise new questions of safety and effectiveness. And, it is at least as safe and effective as the predicate devices Nasal-Aire II and Swift FX. 000010 {4}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/4/Picture/1 description: The image shows the logo for the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.
