Intended Use
The Invia Ease Negative Pressure Wound Therapy (NPWT) system is indicated for patients who would benefit from a suction device (Negative Pressure Wound Therapy) as when used on open wounds it creates an environment that promotes wound healing by secondary or tertiary (delayed primary) intention by preparing the wound bed for closure, reducing edema, promoting granulation tissue formation and by removing exudates and infectious material. When used on closed surgical incisions, the Invia Ease NPWT System is also intended to manage the environment of surgical incisions that continue to drain following sutured or stapled closure by maintaining a closed environment and removing exudate via the application of Negative Pressure Wound Therapy (NPWT). The Invia Ease NPWT system is intended for use in acute, extended and home care settings.
Device Story
Invia Ease NPWT System is a portable, reusable suction pump for negative pressure wound therapy. It applies controlled negative pressure to wounds to promote healing by removing exudate and infectious material, reducing edema, and preparing the wound bed. Used in acute, extended, and home care settings by clinicians or patients. Input consists of vacuum pressure settings (continuous or intermittent) managed via a touchscreen interface. The device monitors pressure via an electric sensor and provides visual/acoustic feedback for alarms (e.g., blockage, canister full, low battery). It utilizes an adaptive air flush mechanism to maintain therapy. Output is the maintenance of a closed, negative-pressure environment at the wound site. Benefits include improved wound bed preparation and management of surgical incision drainage. The device is used with specific Medela canisters and dressings.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Substantial equivalence supported by non-clinical bench testing, including vacuum performance, pump endurance, battery run-time, noise, and IP22 ingress protection testing. Biocompatibility testing (cytotoxicity, intracutaneous reactivity, sensitization) performed per ISO 10993 standards. Usability testing conducted per human factors guidance.
Technological Characteristics
Powered suction pump; Class II; IP22 rated. Materials: Canister and tubing tested for biocompatibility (ISO 10993). Energy: Internal 7.2V 5000mAh Li-Ion battery or external AC/DC adapter. Vacuum range: -40 to -200 mmHg. Connectivity: Standalone. Software: Embedded, moderate level of concern. Sterilization: Provided sterile (dressings). Features: Touchscreen interface, electric vacuum sensor, adaptive air flush, acoustic/visual alarm system per IEC 60601-1-8.
Indications for Use
Indicated for adult patients requiring negative pressure wound therapy for acute, subacute, chronic, dehisced, pressure, diabetic/neuropathic, venous insufficiency, or traumatic wounds, partial thickness burns, flaps, grafts, or closed surgical incisions. Contraindicated for necrotic tissue with eschar, untreated osteomyelitis, non-enteric/unexplored fistulas, malignancy (except palliative), exposed vasculature, nerves, anastomotic sites, or organs.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A powered suction pump is a portable, AC-powered or compressed air-powered device intended to be used to remove infectious materials from wounds or fluids from a patient's airway or respiratory support system. The device may be used during surgery in the operating room or at the patient's bedside. The device may include a microbial filter.

Dear Mike McAndrew:
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.

# Comparison of Technological Characteristics
The Invia Ease Negative Pressure Wound Therapy (NPWT) System is a modified version of the Invia Liberty NPWT System, which was most recently cleared in K172145.
The Invia Ease NPWT pump has the same intended use, similar indications for use, and has equivalent fundamental technology as the legally marketed predicate device to which substantial equivalency is claimed.
Both Invia Ease NPWT System and Invia Liberty use an equivalent suction aggregate to create the necessary vacuum in the same manner and provide same therapy modes: continuous and intermittent.
