Attributes
Therapeutic, Pediatric
Intended Use
The Hudson RCI Triflo II Incentive Deep Breathing Exerciser is intended as an inspiratory deep breathing positive exerciser for adult and pediatric (above 5 years) patients. Intended for single-patient, multi-use in a hospital or home care setting.
Device Story
Non-powered, therapeutic incentive spirometer; used for sustained maximal inspiration (SMI) exercises. Device consists of housing, three internal balls, tubing, mouthpiece, and gross particulate filter. Patient inhales through mouthpiece; airflow causes balls to rise within chambers; provides visual feedback to patient. Used in hospital or home care settings; operated by patient. Output is visual incentive (ball movement) to encourage deep breathing; helps improve lung function/prevent pulmonary complications. Single-patient, multi-use device; discarded after use.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. No clinical data provided. Performance testing included flow accuracy (RMS variation 4.6%–9.3%), drop testing, simulated distribution, useful life testing, and cleaning validation. Biocompatibility testing conducted per ISO 10993-1.
Technological Characteristics
Non-powered, mechanical incentive spirometer. Materials: polystyrene, polypropylene, ethylene vinyl acetate, reticulated polyester polyurethane foam, dye. Dimensions/form factor: 3-chamber housing with balls. Connectivity: None. Sterilization: Non-sterile. Standards: ISO 18562-1/2/3, ISO 10993-1/5/10/11/18.
Indications for Use
Indicated for adult and pediatric patients (above 5 years) requiring sustained maximal inspiration (SMI) or similar inspiratory deep breathing exercises.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
An incentive spirometer is a device that indicates a patient's breathing volume or flow and that provides an incentive to the patient to improve his or her ventilation.

Dear Joy Gutermuth:
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.
{1}------------------------------------------------
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 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/combination-products/guidance-regulatory-information/postmarketing-safety-reportingcombination-products); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) 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).
