#### Intended Use and Indications for Use
The device is for use on adult patients for the treatment of Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA). The device is for use in the home or sleep laboratory.
#### Device Description
The F&P SleepStyle™ is a non-invasive, auto adjusting Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) flow generator, incorporating a heated respiratory humidifier. The device is intended to treat Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) by delivering a flow of positive airway pressure at a level prescribed by a physician to splint open the airway and prevent airway collapse.
The F&P SleepStyle™ system is comprised of the following devices/accessories:
- F&P SleepStyle™ models SPSAAN and SPSCAN: .
- . Breathing tubes:
- ThermoSmart™ heated breathing tube; o
- Standard breathing tube, i.e. non-heated, and elbow connector; O
- Water chamber and water chamber seal; .
- USB stick (F&P InfoUSB) .
The F&P SleepStyle™ system is available in two modes, fixed and auto-adjusting CPAP.
Similar to the predicate device, the SleepStyle™ works by pressurizing room air which is then transported to a patient interface. The delivery of positive air pressure to the patient holds the soft tissue in the throat open, preventing airway collapse and thus disruptions to the patient's breathing and sleep.

#### Key Differences
The key differences between the subject device and predicate device, are that F&P SleepStyle™:
- a) Has a revised auto adjusting CPAP algorithm. The algorithm from the predicate device has been modified.
- b) Has a revised AHI measurement algorithm. Changes were made to the algorithm used in the predicate device.
- c) Has a revised SensAwake algorithm and new comfort feature expiratory relief. Changes were made to the SensAwake algorithm used in the predicate device. Expiratory relief reduces pressure delivered to the patient each time the patient exhales.

- d) Uses a modified user interface The SleepStyle™ device uses dedicated buttons for key features i.e. therapy on/off and a graphical display to display text.
- e) Has similar reprocessing instructions to the predicate device, with additional disinfection options. Performance and verification testing was conducted as per the recommendations of FDA quidance "Reprocessing Medical Devices in Health Care Settings: Validations Methods and Labelling." Similar to the predicate device, chemical disinfection for SleepStyle™ parts (excluding the heated breathing tube) can be performed using Cidex OPA.
The main differences are described below:
- The heated breathing tube used with the SleepStyle™ is for single-patient use only and . therefore is not intended for high level disinfection.
- Thermal disinfection of some SleepStyle™ parts can be carried out at 2 different . temperatures: 75°C for 30 min and 90°C for 1 min. Thermal disinfection of the predicate device was validated at 70°C for 30 min.
- f) Is compatible with InfoSmart, a software reporting tool. The client version of InfoSmart was cleared with the predicate device through 510K K094040. InfoSmart was recently cleared through K161686 to be able to work with compatible flow generators and incorporated the client and web versions. InfoSmart simply displays data as recorded by the compatible CPAP device. Introducing a new compatible device does not change the basic functionality of InfoSmart.
- g) Includes an USB stick which is used to store sleep data that is captured by the device during therapy. The data is transferred from the memory of the CPAP device when the USB stick is inserted into the device's USB port. The USB stick can then be sent to the healthcare provider to view/report on the data, and/or adjust therapy settings. Alternatively, the application in the stick can enable data to be uploaded via the internet to a remote server which can be accessed by the healthcare provider via a web based software called InfoSmart Web (K161686). The stick, in the predicate device, functions in a similar fashion to the stick above but does not have the software application to support web based data transfer.
- h) Includes an integrated modem as opposed to an external modem InfoGSM (K110316) which is compatible with the predicate F&P ICON (K094040). The purpose of the integrated modem within the proposed device is to enable data transfer via cellular network to a software reporting tool InfoSmart (K161686).
The external modem used with the predicate device performs a similar function.
- i) Includes integrated Bluetooth which enables data transfer by pairing the device with the mobile phone or tablet. This allows the user to view their data on the SleepStyle™ mobile application or the SleepStyle™ website.
- j) Includes a water chamber that has a detachable seal to allow easier cleaning, and filling of the water chamber. The predicate device has the chamber seal permanently attached to the chamber.

1. Search: exact and fuzzy
Type a phrase like "coronary artery calcification" into the search box. You get two kinds of results. Exact results match the literal phrase — prefix searches work ("coronary artery calcificati") but suffix searches do not. Fuzzy results match on the meaning and intent of your phrase rather than the exact words, and are sorted by relevance score. Hover over the Exact or Fuzzy badge on any row to see exactly why it matched.
Use the checkboxes above the results to narrow: SaMD keeps only software-only devices, AI / ML keeps only devices with AI.
Exact vs. fuzzy search: what's the difference?
Exact matches on the literal phrase (prefix search works, suffix does not). Fuzzy matches on the meaning and intent of the phrase rather than the exact words. Hover over the badge on any row to see why it matched.
You search "coronary artery calcification" and want only software devices with AI. What two filters do you apply?
Narrow by SaMD (software-only devices), then narrow by AI/ML (devices with AI).

Scroll right in the results table. The intended use is extracted for you — no need to open the PDF. The device story gives a high-level snapshot of what the device does and how it's used. The AI Performance sub-table shows each output name, acceptance criteria, observed values, and development/test dataset descriptions — the same format Innolitics uses for regulatory strategy outputs, and the fastest high-level fingerprint of an AI device. It is AI-generated but has been very reliable in practice.
Where do you find a device's intended use without opening the PDF?
Scroll right in the search results table. The intended use column is extracted for you; no need to dig into the 510(k) summary PDF.
What does the AI Performance sub-table show, and why is it useful?
Output name, acceptance criteria, observed values, development dataset description, and test dataset description. It's the same format we use for regulatory strategy output and Fast 510(k) input, and the fastest high-level fingerprint of an AI device. AI-generated but reliable in practice.
3. Judging fuzzy relevance
Fuzzy results trail off in relevance as you scroll. Use three signals to decide how far down to go: the fuzzy badge explanations, the intended use column, and whether your target output (e.g., Cobb angle) still appears in the AI Performance sub-table. Once it stops appearing, you're past the relevant zone. A top hit with a low score (~0.4) and a stretched explanation is a hint the closest predicates are far away — the project may be headed for De Novo. Note the fuzzy search is a pattern match: it doesn't handle negation ("not") well, and hardware devices can appear — filter by SaMD/AI ML to cut them.
How do you judge how far down fuzzy search results to go?
Use the relevancy signals: the fuzzy badge explanations, the intended use column, and whether the target output (e.g., Cobb angle) still appears in the AI Performance sub-table. Once it stops appearing, results are trailing off in relevancy.
4. Device detail page: chat and citations
Click a device name to open its detail page: device facts on the left, a chat window on the right. Ask something like "Describe the training data". The answer carries little citation bubbles — click one to jump to the highlighted passage in the source PDF, so you can verify every AI answer against the document. There's also a Download PDF button for sharing.
How do you verify an AI chat answer on the device detail page?
Click the citation bubbles to jump to the relevant highlight in the source document.
Reading rule for every project: how many summaries do you read in full?
At least the three most relevant 510(k) or De Novo summaries, in full. After that, use targeted chat questions to confirm your memory quickly. The tool supports this professional habit — it doesn't replace it.
5. Side-by-side comparison
Select multiple rows in the results table (aim for under ~10), then open the PDF Viewer tab. Ask one question — it goes to all selected devices in parallel, each with citations. This is the fastest way to compare and contrast devices: training data, PCCP scope, how they handled adding new scanners, and so on.
What does the side-by-side PDF viewer mode do?
Select multiple devices, open the PDF viewer tab, and ask one question (e.g., "Describe the training data"). It queries all selected devices simultaneously with citations, so you can compare and contrast quickly.
6. Collections
With rows selected, go to the Collections tab and create a labeled collection (e.g., "Cobb Angle Project"). Reload that selection any time — before a client call, pull up the collection and ask questions across all of its devices at once.
How do you save a set of selected devices for later use?
Select the rows, go to the Collections tab, and create a labeled collection (e.g., "Cobb Angle Project"). You can reload the selection anytime and carry it into the PDF viewer and other tabs that support selections.
7. Product codes and the regulations tree
Click a product code in the results to jump to it in the regulations tree — identification text, sibling product codes, and devices you can open in a PDF viewer on the right. Click a regulation number to see its identification, special controls, and related product codes. You can also search by product code or regulation number at the top of the tree. Always read the special controls if any exist for your device — it broadens your search and sharpens pre-kickoff research.
What can you do from the regulations tree view?
Browse product codes and regulation numbers, read the identification text and special controls, browse sibling product codes, open device PDFs on the right, and search by product code or regulation number at the top of the tree.
8. Chart view
Click Show Chart and segment by regulation number (or product code) to see which regulations dominate your result set. Clicking a regulation takes you into the regulations tree. Great for spotting that most matches are, say, hardware laparoscopic devices — a cue to go back and filter.
How do you see which regulations dominate a search result set?
Click "Show Chart" and segment by Regulation Number. Clicking a regulation takes you to the regulations tree.
9. The predicate graph
Open the Predicates tab for a family-tree view of predicate relationships. Click a node to trace its parents and children; selections from search carry over pre-selected. Commonly predicated devices are worth reading — a lot of people predicated them for a reason. The visual lineage is also handy on client calls, e.g. to show how a predicate family evolved and justify why your predicate still holds.
In the predicate graph, why are commonly predicated devices worth reading?
A lot of people predicated them for a reason. Clicking a node traces parents and children, and selections from search carry over pre-selected.
10. Embeddings: the galaxy map
The Embeddings tab plots every matching document in a 2-D "galaxy map" where semantically similar devices cluster together. Hover or click clusters to explore, and let AI label the clusters for you. Embeddings beat product codes for grouping: two devices can carry different product codes (LLZ vs. QIH) yet do the same thing — the embedding captures the meaning of the intended use and device story. This is also exactly how retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) works under the hood, and it makes a great visual on client calls.
Try it yourself
Head to the search page and work through a few of these AI/ML fuzzy searches to build intuition: perivascular fat on CT · aortic valve calcification opportunistic screening on noncontrast CT · breast cancer prediction on digital pathology slides · autism detection · gestational age prediction · a hearing aid that can also detect a pulse · foundation model based analysis of ECG · large language models · penetration test. Watch how the relevance scores, intended use, and AI Performance tables tell you when results stop being meaningful.
