## Intended Use

To provide visual indication of a patient's airway pressure during ventilation. It may be attached to the manometer port or proximal port on ventilation devices such as resuscitation bags, CPAP mask, or CPAP circuits. For patients that the clinician desires to monitor or measure airway or circuit pressure, including neonates to adults. Home, Physician office, Hospital, Subacute Institutions, Emergency services or anywhere measurement of airway pressure is desired.

## Device Story

Disposable pressure manometer provides visual indication of airway pressure during ventilation. Device connects to sampling/pressure ports on resuscitation bags, hyperinflation bags, CPAP masks, or CPAP circuits via flexible nipple. Mechanical design features clear housing, internal spring, and float indicator; positive pressure in circuit displaces float against spring, displaying pressure on calibrated scale (0-40 or 0-60 cm H2O). Used by clinicians in hospitals, clinics, emergency services, or home settings. Provides real-time visual feedback to assist clinicians in monitoring airway pressure, helping to avoid over-pressurization via a fixed leak mechanism. Benefits include simple, portable, single-patient use monitoring of ventilation pressures.

## Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. No clinical data provided. Testing included comparative pressure accuracy across the full range, 5-year simulated age testing, environmental testing (high/low temperature and humidity per MIL-STD-810E), and mechanical drop testing. Results demonstrated no statistical difference in accuracy performance compared to the predicate device.

## Technological Characteristics

Mechanical airway pressure monitor. Components: clear housing, float, spring, pressure scale. Materials: biocompatible for limited duration (<24 hours) indirect/tissue contact. Energy source: pneumatic (passive). Connectivity: none. Sterilization: non-sterile. Models: 0-40 cm H2O and 0-60 cm H2O ranges. Features fixed leak for over-pressurization protection.

## Regulatory Identification

An airway pressure monitor is a device used to measure the pressure in a patient's upper airway. The device may include a pressure gauge and an alarm.

# Device Description:

The Besmed disposable pressure manometer is a means of providing visual indication of patient airway pressure during ventilation.

The device consists of:

- 1. A flexible nipple for attachment to a sampling / pressure port.
- 2. Clear housing with a printed pressure scale
- 3. A float with indicator
- 4. Spring

When positive pressure is present in the ventilation device, the manometer displays the pressure in the "circuit". The proposed design incorporates a calibrated spring, which has demonstrated reasonable accuracy over the expected clinical pressure range - 0-60 cm H2O.

Besmed intends offer three (3) models / styles of their disposable pressure manometer.

They are identical in design, function and materials. The differences are:

- Pressure range .
	- 0 0 60 cm H2O
	- 0 40 cm H2O
	- · Rationale some devices which may use a pressure manometer do not produce as high a pressure and the user often would like a lower limit pressure design
		- Note the accuracy and performances are identical
- . Indicator strip

.

- O All models have the pressure range embossed on the housing
- o A color strip / indicator may also be included to indicate the pressure

# 510(k) Summary Page 4 of 4 19-Jun-2014

## Non-Clinical Testing Summary -

We performed a number of tests including comparative pressure accuracy and the results demonstrated equivalent performance demonstrating the proposed device is equivalent to the -K003497 - EMS pressure manometer.

Testing included:

- . Accuracy of pressure across the full pressure range to meet the pass / fail criteria
- Comparative accuracy testing showed no statistical difference in accuracy performance . between the proposed device and the predicate, K003497 - EMS
- . Age testing simulated to be equivalent to 5 years
- . Environmental testing at high and low temperatures (MIL-STD-810E)
- Mechanical testing Drop test .

All testing demonstrated that the proposed device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.

### Substantial Equivalence Conclusion:

The proposed device has been found to be substantially equivalent to the predicate. Differences between the proposed device and the predicate do not raise new questions of safety or efficacy.

Trade/Device Name: Disposable Pressure Manometer (RE-21466, RE-21464 and RE-21460) Regulation Number: 21 CFR 868.2600 Regulation Name: Airway Pressure Manometer Regulatory Class: Class II Product Code: CAP Dated: May 10, 2014 Received: May 13, 2014

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. Ilsting of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRFI does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

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