Intended Use

ULTepap™ is indicated for use in the treatment of mild to moderate Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) in adults > 66 lbs.

Device Story

ULTepap is a single-patient, reusable intranasal device for mild to moderate OSA treatment. Device consists of soft silicone rubber body, bi-resistance airflow cartridges, and nasal pillows; secured to patient face via standard CPAP headgear. Principle of operation: airflow cartridges allow unimpeded inspiration; during expiration, thin-walled shells collapse and inflate to seal cylinder inner diameter, forcing air through molded channels to create therapeutic positive pressure (4.2–20.3 cmH2O). Used at home or in sleep labs during sleep. Device provides non-invasive airway pressure support, potentially reducing OSA symptoms. Healthcare providers prescribe the device; patients self-administer during sleep.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data. Bench testing only, including back pressure comparison, airflow cartridge fatigue, comfort evaluation, accelerated aging, inhalation resistance, cleaning validation, vibration/drop testing, and environmental testing. Biocompatibility testing performed per ISO 10993-5 and ISO 10993-10.

Technological Characteristics

Materials: Liquid Silicone Rubber (LSR) LIM 6040, Polycarbonate resin (Type PC Poly, Grade ML-1020R), RTV 108 Acetoxy Sealant. Sensing/Actuation: Passive mechanical bi-resistance airflow cartridges. Form factor: Intranasal pillows with headgear attachment. Pressure range: 4.2–20.3 cmH2O. Reusable, single-patient use. Biocompatibility: ISO 10993-5, ISO 10993-10.

Indications for Use

Indicated for treatment of mild to moderate Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) in adults weighing over 66 lbs.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

Intraoral devices for snoring and intraoral devices for snoring and obstructive sleep apnea are devices that are worn during sleep to reduce the incidence of snoring and to treat obstructive sleep apnea. The devices are designed to increase the patency of the airway and to decrease air turbulence and airway obstruction. The classification includes palatal lifting devices, tongue retaining devices, and mandibular repositioning devices.

Special Controls

*Classification.* Class II (special controls). The special control for these devices is the FDA guidance document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Intraoral Devices for Snoring and/or Obstructive Sleep Apnea; Guidance for Industry and FDA.”

BRYGGS is also introducing reference devices for the purpose of making some technological comparisons. Reference devices similar to the ULTepap™ are the SNAPP Sleep Apnea Therapy cleared under K034053 on June 24, 2004 and the P-B Adam Circuit Nasal Pillows cleared under K900164 on January 26, 1990. #### Description of The Device 5.7 - The ULTepap™ is a single patient, reusable device intended to treat mild to moderate OSA. It is comprised of a soft silicon rubber body that contains a pair of bi-resistance airflow cartridges, has flanges to attach headgear, and has nasal pillows to interface with the nares. The device is held in place on the patients face by means of a common CPAP mask headgear which is provided in the packaging. The device creates a therapeutic level of positive pressure on exhalation by means of the airflow cartridges that allow air to enter the patient's upper airway without resistance on inhalation and created resistance to airflow on exhalation. The airflow cartridges are comprised of a cylinder and a flexible thin-walled shell which are aligned with the nasal pillows to allow unimpeded inspiration and partially restricted expiration to create the appropriate level of therapeutic back pressure. The thin-walled shells collapse on inspiration and re-inflate on expiration and create a restricted area for expiration by inflating and sealing the inner diameter of the cylinder, forcing expiration through a series of channels molded in the cylinder. #### Intended Use of the Device 5.8 The ULTepap™ is indicated for use in the treatment of mild to moderate Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) in adults > 66 lbs. #### Technological Characteristics 5.9 ● The proposed ULTepap™ has similar technical characteristics to the predicate Ventus Corp Provent Sleep Apnea Therapy device, cleared under K102404, and the Innomed Healthscience, Inc. Bongo, cleared under K180619. A comparison of technological characteristics is presented in Table 5. 1. | Attribute | Proposed Device: | Primary Predicate Device: | Secondary Predicate Device: | |-----------------------------------------------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | | ULTepap™ Intranasal<br>device | Provent® (K102404) | Bongo (K180619) | | Indications for<br>Use | ULTepap™ is indicated for<br>use in the treatment of mild<br>to moderate Obstructive<br>Sleep Apnea (OSA) in<br>adults > 66 lbs. | Provent® Sleep apnea<br>Therapy is indicated for<br>the treatment of<br>obstructive sleep apnea<br>(OSA) | The Bongo Rx is indicated for use<br>in the treatment of mild to<br>moderate obstructive sleep apnea<br>(OSA) in adults > 66 lbs. | | Principles of<br>Operation -<br>Physical<br>configuration | Soft silicon rubber body<br>that contains a pair of bi-<br>resistance airflow<br>cartridges, with flanges to<br>attach headgear and with<br>integrated nasal pillows to<br>interface with the nares | A pair of adhesives-<br>backed thin patches<br>containing flap valves<br>that adhere to the<br>underside of the nares | A pair of connected silicon rubber<br>inserts that are attached to flap<br>valves, with flanges to attach<br>headgear.
