AG 100s is intended for airway management by oral/nasal intubation while providing continuous endotracheal cuff pressure control using non-invasive measurement and monitoring of carbon dioxide concentration in the subglottic space and evacuation of secretions from above the endotracheal tube's cuff.
Device Story
AG100s is an airway management system for clinical use; monitors subglottic CO2 levels via a dedicated endotracheal tube (ETT) lumen to detect cuff leaks; automatically adjusts cuff pressure to maintain seal; performs intermittent subglottic secretion evacuation and rinsing; includes a general suction port. System comprises a control unit, disposable connection kit, and ETT. Clinicians operate the device via a touch-screen interface to set pressure limits and suction levels. By maintaining optimal cuff pressure and removing secretions, the device aims to reduce aspiration risk, prevent ventilation loss, and minimize tracheal tissue pressure. The system is designed for use with AnapnoGuard ETTs or other FDA-cleared cuffed airways.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Evidence consists of bench performance testing and a human factors usability study (n=45) involving hospital professional staff, which confirmed the clarity and effectiveness of the user manual and GUI.
Technological Characteristics
System includes control unit, disposable connection kit, and ETT. Features NDIR CO2 sensor (0-10k PPM), peristaltic pump (rinse), and vacuum regulator. Cuff pressure control range 10-50 mmHg; accuracy ±0.1 mmHg. Connectivity includes touch-screen interface. Complies with IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, ISO 5361, EN ISO 10993-1, and ISO 14971.
Indications for Use
Indicated for adult patients requiring airway management via oral/nasal intubation, specifically for continuous endotracheal cuff pressure control, subglottic CO2 monitoring, and secretion evacuation.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
An inflatable tracheal tube cuff is a device used to provide an airtight seal between a tracheal tube and a patient's trachea.

#### Device Description:
The AG100s system is comprised of the following main components:
- The AG100s control unit
- The AnapnoGuard connection kit/harness (AG Connection Kit) connecting a cuffed airway to the AG100s control unit.
- The AnapnoGuard endotracheal tube (ETT) or another FDA cleared cuffed Airway.
- Accessories: including cart, secretions canister (Trap Bottle), ● rinsing fluid (saline) bag and antibacterial air filter.
AG100s, including its three components, monitors leak between the endotracheal tube's cuff and the trachea by measuring the Carbon Dioxide levels in the subglottic area above the cuff through a dedicated lumen in the endotracheal tube. Detection of a high level of Carbon Dioxide is an objective indicator for a leak (improper sealing of the trachea by the

endotracheal tube cuff). The system continuously monitors and adjusts the cuff pressure to prevent a leak at minimum possible pressure (all within pressure limits preset by the user).
Preventing a leak reduces the likelihood of aspiration of secretions from the upper airways into the lungs and increases the likelihood for no loss of ventilation and delivery of anesthetic and nebulized drugs into the lungs. Keeping the cuff pressure as low as possible reduces the mechanical pressure of the cuff on the tracheal tissue throughout the intubation period.
The system also performs evacuation of secretions from above the endotracheal tube's cuff through a dedicated lumen at the dorsal side of the endotracheal tube.
#### Indication for Use:
AG100s is intended for airway management by oral/nasal intubation while providing continuous endotracheal cuff pressure control using noninvasive measurement and monitoring of carbon dioxide concentration in the subglottic space and evacuation of secretions from above the endotracheal tube's cuff.
Predicate Devices: Substantial equivalence to the following predicate and reference devices is claimed:
| | K# | Company | Device Name | Clearance Date |
|-----------|---------|-----------|-------------------------------|----------------|
| Predicate | K150157 | Hospitech | AnapnoGuard 100 | Feb 16, 2016 |
| Reference | K093126 | Hospitech | AnapnoGuard endotracheal Tube | Dec 19, 2015 |
#### Comparison with Predicate Devices
The AG100s primary predicate device is the AnapnoGuard 100 Respiratory Guard System (K150157) since it has the same intended use, clinical indications and implements the same technology.
The AG100s is connected to the same AnapnoGuard ETT that is also part of the K150157 submission. The AnapnoGuard ETT is the same as the AnapnoGuard endotracheal Tube (K093126) that is referenced to this notification.
The AG100s can be interfaced with other suction ETTs, which includes maintaining cuff pressure control and intermittent subglottic suctioning, or to other FDA cleared cuffed airway to maintain preset cuff pressure control. This added ability was tested in performance tests.

Below the logo, the words "Hospitech Respiration" are written in a simple font, with "Hospitech" appearing above "Respiration."
The AG100s works, unlike the predicate device, with a disposable single use kit with no direct or indirect contact with any of the system components.
The AG100s is also equipped, unlike the AnapnoGuard 100 Respiratory Guard System, with a general suction port to provide general suction needs with two preset (by the user) suction levels.
#### Complying with AnapnoGuard ETT or another FDA cleared ETTs:
When used with the AnapnoGuard ETT the AG100s may conduct full functional mode where cuff pressure is automatically adjusted by the system (within the pressure limits) based on CO2 level readings above the cuff. Intermittent synchronized rinsing and suction is performed periodically.
When connected to a suction FDA cleared Endotracheal tube, the system offers one mode of operation, which includes maintaining cuff pressure control and intermittent subglottic suctioning.
The user may, at any time, adjust cuff pressure and perform suction by pressing the relevant buttons on the display.
When connected to a standard FDA cleared cuffed Endotracheal tube, the system offers one mode of operation which includes maintaining cuff pressure control.
The user may, at any time, adjust cuff pressure by pressing the relevant buttons on the display.
With any Endotracheal tube, the general suction line (Low Pressure or High Pressure) can be manually activated by pressing on the relevant button on the touch-screen.
