Device Story
Q13 SPIROLYSER is a portable electronic spirometer for respiratory function assessment. Device uses single-use Fleisch-type pneumotachograph sensor to measure airflow via pressure drop across capillary tubes. Patient holds ABS plastic handle, breathes through sensor; device connects via USB to PC running SPIROWIN EXPERT software. Software acquires pressure samples, calculates flow/volume, displays curves, and stores results. Used by healthcare professionals (doctors, lung specialists, allergists) to interpret respiratory function. Output aids clinical decision-making by providing diagnostic data (e.g., FVC, SVC, MVV). Single-use sensor design reduces cross-contamination risk compared to multi-use predicate.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Bench testing only. Performance validated using a pulmonary waveform generator to verify compliance with ATS 2005 standards. Testing confirmed repeatability and accuracy within tolerated maximum errors for all flow/volume curves. Biocompatibility testing (ISO 10993-5, 10993-10) and electrical/EMC safety (IEC 60601-1, 60601-1-2) were successfully completed.
Technological Characteristics
Fleisch-type pneumotachograph sensor (polypropylene); ABS plastic handle; foam nose clip. Powered by 5V DC via USB. Dimensions: 250g (excluding PC). Connectivity: USB to PC. Software: SPIROWIN EXPERT. Standards: ISO 10993 (biocompatibility), IEC 60601-1 (electrical safety), IEC 60601-1-2 (EMC), ATS 2005 (spirometry performance).
Indications for Use
Indicated for adult and pediatric patients aged 6 years and older requiring spirometry testing in hospital or clinical settings.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A diagnostic spirometer is a device used in pulmonary function testing to measure the volume of gas moving in or out of a patient's lungs.

- 1. Identification of the Device: Proprietary-Trade Name: Q13 SPIROLYSER® Classification Name: Spirometer Common/Usual Name: Spirometer Device Class: II per regulation 868.1840 Product Code BZG
- 2. Equivalent legally marketed device: K010761, SPIROLYSER SPL-50, FIM Medical
- 3. Indications for Use: Intended to perform spirometry in hospital and clinical environments, for adult patients and pediatric patients aged 6 years and above.
- 4. Description of the Device: The SPIROLYSER® Q13 is an electronic spirometer operating on a PC, for the exploration of respiratory function. The spirometer is composed of a single-use sensor that propels the air (FLEISCH principle) and obtains a difference in pressure. Definition of Fleisch type pneumotachograph: A pneumotachograph that measures flow in terms of the proportional pressure drop across a resistance consisting of numerous capillary tubes in parallel. The SPIROWIN® EXPERT software acquires samples sent by the spirometer and determines a flow and a volume so as to display the curves and deduce results. The SPIROLYSER® 013 spirometer is a portable device. In normal use, the patient holds it by the handle, placing the single-use sensor in the mouth. The SPIROLYSER® Q13 is directly powered by the computer USB port via its USB lead. The SPIROWIN® EXPERT software (on the attached PC) calculates, displays and stores data to help the practitioner in the exploration of a patient's respiratory function. The SPIROLYSER® Q13 should only be used by health professionals (doctor, lung specialist, allergist ...). Results should only be interpreted by health professionals having undergone pneumology training.

The technological characteristics, including design, materials, composition, and energy source, are substantially the same, so there are no issues impacting safety and effectiveness, as detailed in the right hand column in the table above.
- 8. Summary of non-clinical testing: Biocompatibility of the mouthpiece, handle, and the nose clip wasevaluated according to FDA recommendations and ISO 10993 standards for cytoxicity, irritation, andsensitization (ISO 10993-5 (2009) and ISO 10993-10 (2010). Software validation and risk analysis wasperformed. Electrical safety (IEC 60601-1:2005) and EMC compatibility (IEC 60601-1-2:2007) testing wassuccessfully performed. Bench testing also included Compliance with ATS 2005 Spirometry TestingRecommendations. Using its flow/volume Pulmonary Waveform Generator the FIM MEDICAL has carriedout all essential requirements recommended by the American Thoracic Society (ATS 2005). Themeasurements were performed several times in order to check repeatability, as well as the performance of theSpirolyser® Q13 spirometer. All the results obtained are below the tolerated maximum errors on all the FTand PW curves tested, in both positive and negative flows. All test results were satisfactory.
- 9. Summary of clinical testing: Not required. Bench testing was sufficient to establish the performance characteristics as being safe and effective.
- 10. Conclusion: The 013® Spirolyser® is as safe and as effective as the predicate device. It has insignificant technological differences, and has essentially identical indications for use, thus rendering it substantially equivalent to the predicate device. The small differences do not impact safety of effectiveness..
