## Indications for Use

The OGS-2001A PocketCare is intended for medical purposes to transmit radiation at a known wavelength through blood and measure the blood oxygen saturation based on the amount of reflected or scattered radiation and is intended to measure the concentration of carbon dioxide in a gas mixture to aid in determining the patient's ventilatory status.

## Device Story

OGS-2001A PocketCare is a portable SpO2/CO2 monitor; inputs include optical signals from SpO2 probes and gas mixture samples for CO2 concentration; device processes signals to calculate blood oxygen saturation and CO2 levels; output displayed for medical personnel to aid in ventilatory status assessment; used in clinical or remote/transport settings; not intended as sole diagnostic basis; benefits include real-time monitoring of patient respiratory status.

## Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Electromagnetic, environmental, safety, and performance testing conducted per design control requirements. Software validation confirmed acquisition, processing, display, and recording functions performed within specifications. No clinical data provided.

## Technological Characteristics

SpO2/CO2 monitor. Materials: silicone (reusable probes), biocompatible per ISO 10993. Airway adapter for single-patient use. Non-sterile. IEC 601-1 compliant. Software-based signal acquisition and processing.

## Regulatory Identification

An oximeter is a device used to transmit radiation at a known wavelength(s) through blood and to measure the blood oxygen saturation based on the amount of reflected or scattered radiation. It may be used alone or in conjunction with a fiberoptic oximeter catheter.

## Predicate Devices

- OLG-1100A PocketCap CO2 Monitor ([K964305](/device/K964305.md))

510(k) NOTIFICATION
OGS-2001A PocketCare

JAN - 7 2000

# SECTION 2 - 510(K) SUMMARY

Name and Address of Applicant Nihon Kohden America. Inc. Attn: Regulatory Affairs 2601 Campus Drive Irvine, California 92612-1601

Phone: (949) 250-3959 Fax: (949) 250-3210

The device has been classified as Class II by the Cardiovascular Device Classification Panel under 21 CFR Part 870.2700 "Oximeter" per 74 DQA and by the Anesthesiology Classification Panel under 21 CFR Part 868.1400 Analyzer, Gas, Carbon dioxide, Gaseous-phase" per 73 CCK.

The common name for the OGS-2001A device is SpO2/CO2 monitor.

The predicate devices are the OLG-1100A PocketCap CO2 Monitor per 510(K) #K964305 commercial distribution certification dated 02/19/1997and the BSM-1101 Life Scope EC Patient Monitor per 510(k) #K973918, commercial distribution certification dated 01/13/1998.

Nihon Kohden's model number OGS-2001A is intended for medical use to measure the blood oxygen saturation (SpO-) and to measure the concentration of carbon dioxide in a gas mixture (CO-) to aid in determining the patient's ventilatory status. This product will be available for use by medical personnel within a medical facility or in a remote environment. This device is not intended to be the sole basis of diagnosis.

The CO2 function of the device is intended for patients three (3) years and above and is not recommended for patients with low tidal volume such as patients weighing less than 22 pounds or patients with a respiratory rate greater than 60 breaths per minute. The CO2 function will be available for all other patient populations.

The device complies with IEC 601-1 subclause 56.3(c) implemented by 21 CFR Part 868 Performance Standard for Electrode Lead Wires and Patient Cables. To date, no other special controls or performance standards are known or established for this device.

The OGS-2001A device is not sterile. The airway adapter is for single patient use only. Reusable or single patient use SpO2 probes are available.

The device material components have been determined to be non-contacting per the quidance provided by BS EN 30993: 1994 / ISO 10993: 1993 which replaces the Tripartite Guidance. The reusable SpO2 probe surface is silicone, known to be biocompatible by over 30 years of various medical device uses per the open literature. The disposable, SpO2 probes are the same probes as used with the predicate device BSM-1101 (K973918). Therefore, good laboratory practice studies were not required per 21 CFR 58.

The OGS-2001A PocketCare was subjected to electromagnetic, environmental, safety and performance testing procedures per Nihon Kohden design control requirements. These tests verified the operation of the device. Software validation tested the operation of the software functions of acquiring. processing, displaying and recording all functions of the results confirmed that the device performed within specifications.

Therefore based on the above, Nihon Kohden believes that the OGS-2001A PocketCare is substantially equivalent to the combination of the predicate devices.
