Intended Use
The GEM is intended to be used for diagnostic use in the treatment of pulmonary illnesses with an intended use and indication for use as a configurable, non-invasive pulmonary function tester (PFT) testing system.. The GEM is indicated for use in: pulmonary function testing.
Device Story
GEM (Gas Exchange Module) is a configurable, non-invasive pulmonary function testing (PFT) system. Device utilizes a pneumotach (GemTach) for flow measurement and gas analyzers for respiratory gas analysis. Inputs include patient respiratory flow and gas concentrations (CO, CO2, CH4, O2). Analyzers employ fast-response infrared technology for CO, CO2, and CH4, and electrochemical sensors for O2. System processes these signals to provide diagnostic pulmonary data. Used in clinical settings for pulmonary function assessment. Healthcare providers use output to diagnose and treat pulmonary illnesses. Benefits include non-invasive diagnostic capability for pediatric and adult populations.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Performance validated against ATS standards for spirometry (1994) and single-breath CO diffusing capacity (1995). Analyzers verified for step response, linearity, noise, and drift with pass/fail criteria identical to the CPL predicate.
Technological Characteristics
Pneumotach: single-screen bi-directional pressure differential; flow range +/- 15 L/Sec. Gas Analyzers: Infrared (CO, CO2, CH4) and electrochemical (O2). Power: 115-240 VAC. Standards: UL 2601-1, EN 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-1, CSA 22.2 No. 1, IEC 60601-1-2, ATS 1995. Weight: 18 lbs.
Indications for Use
Indicated for pulmonary function testing in pediatric and adult patients. Compatible with Body Plethysmograph as an optional module.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A diagnostic spirometer is a device used in pulmonary function testing to measure the volume of gas moving in or out of a patient's lungs.

## Technological Characteristics and Substantial Equivalence
Electrical: A medical grade switching power supply is used that operates on 115-240 VAC 50-60 Hz, at 3.15 Amps.
Weight: 18 lbs., 8.2 Kg
Spirometer: The pneumotach is a single-screen bi-directional device that is used in conjunction with commercially available pressure transducers. Resistance is < 1.4 cmH2O/L/Sec @ 14 L/Sec. Volume accuracy is +/- 3%, and it is calibrated by using a known volume displacement device 3-liter syringe as a standard.
GemTach
Type: Single screen pressure differential Linearity: 2% Resistance: < 0.5 cmH2O/L/Sec @ 14 L/Sec Accuracy: +/- 3% Flow Range: +/- 15 L/Sec
Gas Analyzers: The analyzers consist of a fast-response Infrared analyzer for the measurement of carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO2), and methane (CH4), and an electrochemical sensor for fast-response oxygen (O2) measurement. Calibration is accomplished by setting the span with known gas concentrations. In production, step responses, linearity, noise, and drift parameters are monitored, and the pass/fail criteria are identical to that of the CPL.
Multi-Gas Type: Infrared CO, CH4 Range: 0-3000 ppm CO2 Range: 0-15% Response: < 100 ms Sample Rate: 100 Hz Accuracy: 1% Linearity: < 1% Noise < 1% full scale
Oxygen Type: Electrochemical Range: 0.1-100% O2 Accuracy: 1% Response 80 ms
