Indications for Use

The IRRIS is intended for use as an aid in the placement of an endotracheal tube (ETT) during intubation procedures performed with video-assisted devices.

Device Story

IRRIS is a non-invasive, battery-operated electronic illumination device for single-patient use; designed to assist endotracheal tube (ETT) placement during video-assisted intubation. Device transmits near-infrared light (~850 nm) to patient's neck; illuminates trachea to distinguish it from surrounding tissues during video-laryngoscopy. Used by physicians or trained medical personnel in hospitals and pre-hospital settings. Healthcare providers observe the tracheal illumination via existing video-assisted devices to confirm ETT placement. Non-invasive application provides a visual aid to improve intubation accuracy and safety; benefits patient by reducing potential for misplacement or trauma during airway management.

Clinical Evidence

Clinical trial conducted on 12 patients outside the USA; verified device aids ETT placement by illuminating the trachea. No adverse reactions reported. Pre-clinical proof-of-concept studies conducted on 6 cadavers to evaluate clinical utility and usability, confirming acceptability for human use.

Technological Characteristics

Non-invasive electronic illumination device; battery-powered. Emits near-infrared light (~850 nm) via LEDs. Surface temperature ~25°C. Single-patient use. Tested for biocompatibility (ISO elution, skin irritation, sensitization), electrical safety (IEC 60601-1), and EMC (IEC 60601-1-2).

Indications for Use

Indicated for use as an aid in endotracheal tube (ETT) placement during intubation procedures performed with video-assisted devices in patients requiring airway management.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A tracheal tube is a device inserted into a patient's trachea via the nose or mouth and used to maintain an open airway.

Dear George Hattub:

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. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's

### Summary

Based on the results of the non-clinical performance testing, which included Biocompatibility Confirmation, Electrical Safety & EMC Tests, and Software Validation, as well as the outcomes from the pre-clinical cadaver studies and the performance in the clinical study, we believe that the IRRIS raises no new safety concerns or efficacy issues. Therefore, A.R. Guide In Medical believes that the IRRIS is substantially equivalent to it predicate device for its intended use.
