## Indications for Use

To deliver oxygen to patients in low to medium concentrations and provide a means to sample expired gases.

## Device Story

OxyArm CO2 is an oxygen delivery and gas sampling headset. Device features an oxygen delivery port positioned in front of patient's nose and mouth, plus a dedicated port for sampling expired gases for end-tidal CO2 monitoring. Device connects to standard oxygen source and external CO2 monitor via sampling tubing. Used in hospitals, sub-acute institutions, emergency services, and physician offices. Operated by healthcare professionals. Unlike traditional masks, device does not cover nose or mouth and does not contact patient's face, potentially increasing patient comfort. Output allows clinicians to monitor patient respiratory status via CO2 waveforms and values while simultaneously providing oxygen therapy.

## Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Performance data confirmed the device yields comparable CO2 waveforms and values at various oxygen flow rates and is capable of delivering required O2 concentrations.

## Technological Characteristics

Materials: Polyethylene, polypropylene, PVC. No latex. Design: Headset-based, non-contact, one-size-fits-all. Connectivity: Connects to standard oxygen source and external CO2 monitor. Energy source: None (passive delivery/sampling).

## Regulatory Identification

A carbon dioxide gas analyzer is a device intended to measure the concentration of carbon dioxide in a gas mixture to aid in determining the patient's ventilatory, circulatory, and metabolic status. The device may use techniques such as chemical titration, absorption of infrared radiation, gas chromatography, or mass spectrometry.

The Southmedic OxyArm CO2 is an oxygen delivery device with a headset and oxygen delivery port, which is placed in front of the patient vs. nasal cannula or over their mouth and nose. It also contains a port for taking a sample of expired gases, to measure exhaled end-tidal carbon dioxide. It is connected to a standard oxygen source and the sampling tubing to a standard end-tidal carbon dioxide monitor.

OxyArm CO2 Regulation Number: 868.1400 Regulation Name: Carbon Dioxide Gas Analyzer Regulatory Class: II (two) Product Code: 73 CCK Dated: March 14, 2002 Received: March 15, 2002

Dear Mr.Dryden:

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. 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.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such 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.

Page 2 - Mr. Paul E. Dryden

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): good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (OS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801 and additionally 21 CFR Part 809.10 for in vitro diagnostic devices), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4648. Additionally, for questions on the promotion and advertising of your device, please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4639.
