Dear Charlemagne Chua:

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 (the 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 available 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.

Submission Date: May 16, 2025

# 1. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The TG-980P and TG-980P1, collectively referred to as TG-980P/TG-980P1, are CO₂ Sensor Kits used to measure the concentration of carbon dioxide (CO₂ or CO2) during patient expiration. The TG-980P/TG-980P1 is intended for use by qualified medical personnel as an aid for determining patient ventilatory status within a hospital, ambulatory care, transport, or any other clinical environment.

The TG-980P/TG-980P1 CO₂ Sensor Kit comprises three main components: a CO₂ sensor, an interface connector, and a sensor cable. It utilizes the mainstream measurement method to sample gas directly from the patient's airway and non-dispersive infrared (NDIR) absorption technology to measure CO₂ concentration during patient expiration. CO₂ gas absorbs infrared light at specific wavelengths, and the amount absorbed is directly related to CO₂ concentration. The CO₂ sensor is equipped with a light source that generates infrared light. The light passes through an attached Nihon Kohden accessory (except the Thermal Airflow Sensor) through which the expired air flows and is converted by photodetectors to voltage, which is used to calculate CO₂ concentration. The calculated digital data is then transmitted and displayed on a connected patient monitor or other device.

The TG-980P/TG-980P1 CO₂ Sensor Kit can be connected via the interface connector and used with Nihon Kohden devices for which the operator's manual specifies compatibility with the TG-980P/TG-980P1.

TG-980P/TG-980P1 CO2 Sensor Kit 510(K) Summary

## 7.3 Discussion for Technological Characteristics

The TG-980P/TG-980P1 CO2 Sensor has the same Technological Characteristics as the predicate device.

## 7.4 Discussion for Design Characteristics

The predicate device, reference device and TG-980P/TG-980P1 CO2 Sensor Kit have very similar design characteristics. There were changes to the physical dimensions. The dimensional changes and design changes do not impact the safety and effectiveness of the TG-980P/ TG-980P1 CO2 Sensor Kit when compared to the predicate device.

7.4.1 When compared to the predicate and reference devices, the overall size of the TG-980P/TG-980P1 CO2 Sensor Kit is smaller, and the device configuration has changed. This is due to the removal of the CO2 adapter from the subject device.

7.4.2 When compared to the predicate and reference devices, the overall weight of the TG-980P/TG-980P1 CO2 Sensor Kit is lighter. This is a design improvement to make the subject device more lightweight.

## 7.5 Discussion for Compatible Device

The predicate device, reference device and TG-980P/TG-980P1 CO2 Sensor Kit require the devices to be connected to a Nihon Kohden host device to display the measured data. The differences do not impact the safety and effectiveness of the TG-980P/TG-980P1 CO2 Sensor Kit when compared to the predicate device.

## 7.6 Discussion for Performance Specifications

The predicate device, reference device and TG-980P/TG-980P1 CO2 Sensor Kit have similar CO2 measurement specifications. The predicate and reference devices have a slower response time when EtCO2 is measured. The difference does not impact the safety and effectiveness of the TG-980P/TG-980P1 CO2 Sensor Kit when compared to the predicate device.

## 8. CONCLUSION

The results of the substantial equivalence assessment, taken together with non-clinical bench testing, electrical safety and EMC, and electromagnetic compatibility, software verification, and validation demonstrate that the TG-980P/TG-980P1 CO2 Sensor Kit does not raise concerns regarding its safety and effectiveness when compared to its predicate device and operates in accordance with claimed indications for use. Nihon Kohden believes that the TG-980P/ TG-980P1 CO2 Sensor Kit is substantially equivalent to the TG-970P predicate and reference devices.
