Intended Use

Medgraphics Ultima system is intended for medical applications requiring a non-invasive assessment of the cardiopulmonary response to exercise or measurement of energy expenditure using indirect calorimetry.

Device Story

Ultima system is a cardiopulmonary exercise testing device. It measures breath-by-breath flow, oxygen uptake (VO2), and carbon dioxide production (VCO2). Inputs include respiratory gas samples and flow signals. The system processes these inputs to calculate metabolic and cardiopulmonary parameters, including cardiac output via the Fick method. Used in clinical settings by healthcare professionals to assess exercise response, energy expenditure, and nutritional status. Output is presented to clinicians to guide diagnosis, disease classification, and therapy management. Benefits include objective assessment of cardiac/pulmonary function and optimized patient care plans.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Performance validated on 11 systems. Tandem gas exchange system validator studies compared the Ultima system to the predicate device, showing less than 3% variability for VO2, VCO2, and tidal volume measurements.

Technological Characteristics

Cardiopulmonary exercise system; breath-by-breath measurement of flow, oxygen uptake, and carbon dioxide production. Utilizes gas exchange analysis and indirect calorimetry. Provides direct Fick determination of cardiac output. Connectivity and specific material standards not detailed.

Indications for Use

Indicated for non-invasive assessment of cardiac and pulmonary function during exercise, screening for cardiac/pulmonary dysfunction, differentiating heart and lung disease, assessing dyspnea, classifying disease severity for patient management, establishing exercise prescriptions/training programs, evaluating therapy efficiency, providing nutritional assessment/substrate utilization quantification, and direct Fick determination of cardiac output.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

An oxygen uptake computer is a device intended to compute the amount of oxygen consumed by a patient and may include components for determining expired gas volume and composition.

Description: The Ultima system is a cardiopulmonary exercise system that provides breath by breath measurements of flow, oxygen uptake and carbon dioxide production. Intended Use: Medgraphics Ultima system is intended for medical applications requiring a non-invasive assessment of the cardiopulmonary response to exercise or measurement of energy expenditure using indirect calorimetry. Comparison: Direct comparison with the predicate device was made with acceptable conclusions. Discussion: Laboratory testing of 11 systems has shown the Ultima system to have substantial equivalence in performance and precision to the predicate device. Tandem gas exchange system validator studies performed with the predicate device produced comparative data output with less than 3% variability for VO2, VCO2 and tidal volume. Conclusion: The Medgraphics Ultima system is substantially equivalent to the predicate device. $$ \ell \not\sim \ell \quad \bigotimes_a a \not\sim \ell $$ Page 65 of 67 {1}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/1/Picture/0 description: The image shows the logo for the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services.

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. {2}------------------------------------------------ #### Page 2 – Ms. Lynn Brosoius 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), please contact the Office of Compliance at (240) 276-0120. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21CFR Part 807.97).

The system can be used to screen for early signs of cardiac and pulmonary dysfunction; differentiate heart and lung disease; assess dyspnea complaints; classify patients according to severity of disease as a guide for patient management; establish an optimal exercise prescription and training program; evaluate the efficiency of prescribed therapy. The Ultima system uses the direct measurement of oxygen uptake and carbon dioxide production to provide nutritional assessment, to optimize nutritional supplements and quantify substrate utilization. The Ultima system can also provide direct Fick determination of cardiac output using real time oxygen uptake measurements.
