Intended Use
The Nihon Kohden NKV-550 Series Ventilator System is intended to provide continuous ventilation for adult, pediatric and neonatal patients who require invasive or noninvasive respiratory support. The NKV-550 offers mandatory and spontaneous ventilation modes as well as respiratory monitoring. The NKV-550 is intended for use in hospitals and hospital-type facilities, as well as, for in-hospital transportation.
Device Story
NKV-550 Series Ventilator System provides continuous respiratory support; utilizes medical oxygen and compressed air to deliver 21-100% oxygen concentrations. System comprises graphic user interface (GUI) and breath delivery unit (BDU). Clinicians use GUI to set parameters (tidal volume, inspiratory pressure), configure alarm limits, and monitor waveforms/loops. BDU uses microprocessors to control pneumatic system via proportional valves for breath delivery. Used in hospitals and during in-hospital transport. Output includes ventilation therapy and patient monitoring data; assists clinical decision-making by providing controlled respiratory support and real-time physiological feedback. Benefits patients by maintaining adequate ventilation and oxygenation.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Substantial equivalence demonstrated via bench testing, including software verification, electrical safety/EMC, device functionality, therapy/mode performance, product endurance, power performance, environmental testing, cleaning/disinfection, gas path biocompatibility, human factors/usability, risk management, and waveform comparison.
Technological Characteristics
Critical care ventilator; positive pressure delivery; time-cycled, volume-constant, pressure-controlled. Components: GUI and BDU with microprocessors and proportional valves. Power: AC and DC (battery). Connectivity: Not specified. Biocompatibility: ISO 10993-1, ISO 18562-1 to 3. Safety/Performance: ISO 80601-2-12, ANSI AAMI ES60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, IEC 60601-1-6, IEC 60601-1-8, IEC 62133, ISO 80601-2-55.
Indications for Use
Indicated for adult, pediatric, and neonatal patients requiring invasive or noninvasive respiratory support via mandatory or spontaneous ventilation modes.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A continuous ventilator (respirator) is a device intended to mechanically control or assist patient breathing by delivering a predetermined percentage of oxygen in the breathing gas. Adult, pediatric, and neonatal ventilators are included in this generic type of device.

Dear Sheryl Higgins:
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. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. 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 requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part
{1}------------------------------------------------
801); medical device reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803) for devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/CombinationProducts/GuidanceRegulatoryInformation/ucm597488.htm); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (OS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR Part 807.97). For questions regarding the reporting of adverse events under the MDR regulation (21 CFR Part 803), please go to http://www.fda.gov/MedicalDevices/Safety/ReportaProblem/default.htm.
