Intended Use
The anesthesia workstation Perseus A500 is intended for use in anesthetizing adults, children, and neonates and can be used for automatic and manual ventilation, pressuresupported spontaneous breathing, and spontaneous breathing. Perseus A500 is equipped with airway monitoring, gas measurement and device monitoring. O2 insufflation, and an anesthetic gas receiving system. Anesthesia is achieved through a mixture of pure oxygen and Air (medical compressed air) or pure oxygen and nitrous oxide, with the addition of volatile anesthetic agents. Ventilation is accomplished on the patient through a laryngeal mask, a mask, or an endotracheal tube. The integrated breathing system can be used with partial rebreathing (low-flow or minimum-flow). A non-rebreathing system such as the Kuhn or Medec Water System may be used at the external fresh-gas outlet (optional). Perseus A500 is specified for inhalational anesthesia and/or patient ventilation in accordance with the intended use during surgical or diagnostic interventions.
Device Story
Perseus A500 is a continuous flow anesthesia workstation for clinical use by anesthesia professionals. It integrates a blower-based ventilator, gas mixer, and heated breathing system. Inputs include medical gases (O2, Air, N2O) and volatile anesthetic agents. The system provides automatic/manual ventilation modes (Volume/Pressure Controlled, APRV, Pressure Support) and monitors airway parameters (flow, pressure, gas concentrations). Output is displayed on an integrated touchscreen for clinician decision-making regarding patient ventilation and anesthesia depth. Benefits include precise gas delivery, integrated monitoring, and support for low-flow/minimum-flow rebreathing, facilitating safe patient management during surgery.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Verification and validation activities were performed in accordance with internal Quality Management Systems and FDA-recognized standards (IEC 60601 series, ISO 8835 series, ISO 21647, ISO 15001). Usability features were evaluated by end-users. No clinical trial data was required for this submission.
Technological Characteristics

Biocompatibility per ISO 10993. Software: Programmable electrical medical system.
Indications for Use
Indicated for anesthesia delivery and ventilation in adults, children, and neonates during surgical or diagnostic interventions. Supports automatic/manual ventilation, pressure-supported spontaneous breathing, and spontaneous breathing via laryngeal mask, mask, or endotracheal tube.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A gas machine for anesthesia is a device used to administer to a patient, continuously or intermittently, a general inhalation anesthetic and to maintain a patient's ventilation. The device may include a gas flowmeter, vaporizer, ventilator, breathing circuit with bag, and emergency air supply. A gas machine for analgesia is a device used to administer to a patient an analgesic agent, such as a nitrous oxide-oxygen mixture (maximum concentration of 70 percent nitrous oxide).
