- **Decision Date:** Oct 18, 1996
- **Decision:** SESE
- **Submission Type:** Traditional
- **Regulation:** 21 CFR 868.1400
- **Device Class:** Class 2
- **Review Panel:** Anesthesiology

## Intended Use

Indicated use - When a sample of a patient's expired gas is to be analyzed. Targeted population - Any patient requiring monitoring of expired gases. Environment of use - Hospital, anesthesia, ICU, PACU, respiratory therapy

## Device Story

Small-bore tubing with luer fittings; facilitates transport of patient expired gas samples to external gas analyzers. Used in hospital environments (anesthesia, ICU, PACU, respiratory therapy) by clinicians. Device features various lengths, diameters, and optional in-line filters. Single-use disposable design.

## Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only; performance testing of luer fittings confirms equivalence to predicate.

## Technological Characteristics

Small-bore tubing with luer fittings; materials include PVC, PC, ABS, Acrylic, and PE. Optional in-line filter. Single-use, disposable.

## 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.

## Predicate Devices

- Gibeck, Inc. disposable gas sampling lines ([K841722](/device/K841722.md))
