#### Description of Device:
The NUK Expressive Double Electric Breast Pump is intended to express milk from the breasts. It is intended for use by a single user. This is accomplished by an electrical pump system generating a suck and release vacuum pattern. The suction strength is adjustable. The cycles per minute are adjustable. The electrical pumping unit of the device is connected to the breast shields via silicone tubing. The breast shield and screw housing is equipped with a flap valve separating the breast shield from the NUK breast milk container. The system is assembled in an airtight way to ensure that the system can build up vacuum when the breast shield is connected to the breast. The milk will flow through the flap back flow valve into the bottle. A voltage adaptor is provided with the device.
#### Indication for Use.
The NUK Expressive Double Electric Breast Pump is intended to express milk from the breasts. It is intended for use by a single user.

#### Performance:
The NUK device verification testing under the company's Design Control Process has confirmed the device's conformance with specifications. Suction pressure was tested and recorded to verify that the NUK Expressive Double Electric Breast Pump was equivalent to the predicate device using both single and double pumping options. All tissue contact components were tested for biocompatibility according to ISO 10993. The device was also tested for electrical safety testing according to IEC 60601-1. The specifications do not include any significant differences from those of the predicates.
#### Conclusion:
This submission demonstrates that the NUK Expressive Double Electric Breast Pump is substantially equivalent to the predicate device. It provides evidence that shows the NUK device fits the same classification code definition as the predicate device; the technology for the same for both devices; the intended users are the same; and performance characteristics such as the vacuum range and suction cycles of both devices are similar.
