The Blease 900 Series Ventilators are advanced, microprocessorcontrolled, pneumatically driven ventilators, which have been designed specifically for the mechanical ventilation of adult and pediatric patients under general anesthesia.
Device Story
Microprocessor-controlled, pneumatically driven ventilator; designed for adult and pediatric patients under general anesthesia. System includes electronic/pneumatic control unit and bellows assembly; integrates with circle-type absorber. Operates in volume control, pressure control, and SIMV/PSV modes. Provides real-time monitoring of oxygen, volume, airway pressure, and waveforms; displays data on color touchscreen. Clinicians set ventilation parameters (tidal volume, frequency, I:E ratio, PEEP, pressure limits) via interface. Device generates alarms for pressure, volume, oxygen, and system errors. Benefits include precise ventilation control and monitoring during anesthesia, supporting both low- and high-flow applications. Used in clinical settings by anesthesia providers.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Performance verified against IEC 60601-1 (electrical safety), IEC 60601-1-2 (electromagnetic compatibility), and ASTM D4169-05 (shipping/packaging). Results confirmed compliance with predetermined specifications and safety standards.
Technological Characteristics
Microprocessor-controlled, pneumatically driven ventilator. Features color touchscreen interface (8.4 inch). Ventilation modes: Volume Control, Pressure Control, SIMV+PSV, Precision Pressure Support.

Dear Mr. Kroenke:
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.
