# DEVICE DESCRIPTION:
The subject device is the Nellcor™ Bedside Respiratory Patient Monitoring System (oximeter) which contains the Nellcor™ Respiration Rate Parameter (RR Version 2.0 Application device). The oximeter is designed for continuous, non-invasive monitoring of functional oxygen saturation of arterial hemoglobin (SpO2), pulse rate, and respiratory rate by use of one of compatible Nellcor OxiMax oxygen transducers (sensors). The oximeter displays digital values of SpO2 and pulse and respiratory rate. The oximeter device features the same technological characteristics as the predicate, which is the exact same system featuring a system software upgrade.
{4}------------------------------------------------
The oximeter features the optional Nellcor™ Respiration Rate (RR) Software Application for use on the finished oximeter device. Covidien is submitting this traditional 510(k) submission as the result of a design change to the RR software device residing on the oximeter. The design change to the RR Software Application involves a modification to the principles of operation of the RR software algorithm.
The RR software application is intended for continuous non-invasive monitoring of respiration rate in adult patients, and it is calculated by an RR algorithm residing on the monitor which derives patient respiratory rate in breaths per minute based upon oximetry photoplethysmography data that is received from the oximetry sensor on the patient. The software parameter was cleared by the FDA through traditional 510(k) premarket notification (K111933) as the Nellcor Respiration Rate Software, Version 1.0 on March 15, 2012. Version 2.0 (V2.0) of the Respiration Rate (RR) software is an upgraded design of the original cleared software.
## INDICATIONS FOR USE:
The Nellcor™ Bedside Respiratory Patient Monitoring System is a portable pulse oximeter intended for prescription use only as a continuous non-invasive monitor of arterial oxygen saturation (SpO2) and pulse rate of adult, pediatric, and neonatal patients during both motion conditions, and for patients who are well or poorly perfused. The monitoring system is intended for use in hospitals, hospitaltype facilities, and during intra-hosport. The OxiMax SPD™ Alert (SPD) feature is intended only for facility-use care of adults to detect patterns of desaturation indicative of repetitive reductions in airflow through the upper airway and into the lungs.
The Nellcor™ Respiration Rate parameter, when used in conjunction with the Nellcor™ Bedside Respiratory Patient Monitoring System and Nellcor™ Adult Respiratory Sensor, is intended for the continuous, non-invasive monitoring of respiration rate in hospitals and hospitals and hospital type facilities.
# TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS SUMMARY & SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE STATEMENT:
The subject device, is the Nellcor™ Bedside Respiratory Patient Monitoring System (oximeter) which contains the Nellcor™ Respiration Rate Software Version 2.0 Application (RR software device), has the same intended use (Adults), general design (continuous, non-invasive indication of respiration rate) and fundamental scientific technology (indicator of central ventilatory drive) as the predicate device Nellcor™ Bedside Respiratory Patient Monitoring System K130320, K123581 and K121806.
The Respiration Rate Software uses photoplethysmography to calculate respiration rate, both of which are indicators of central ventilator drive. The respiration rate measurement range for the Respiration Rate Software is 4-40 breaths/minute, and is indicated for adults only. Both the subject and predicate devices have an accuracy of +1 breaths/minute for the adult population.
# PERFORMANCE DATA SUMMARY:
### Non-clinical performance data summary
The appropriate safety, environmental, performance and functional testing was conducted to ensure that the specifications of the Nellcor Respiration Rate Software and Nellcor™ Adult Respiratory Sensor were met.
The performance testing section of this submission includes verification and validation reports for pulse oximetry performance in accordance with FDA Guidance document: "Pulse Oximeters - Premarket Notification Submissions [510(k)s] Guidance for Industry and Food and Drug Administration Staff". Nonclinical testing in this submission includes, but is not limited to. ISO 80601-2-61:2011 and IEC 60601-1:2005 test reports, Oximetry performance verification, Human Factors Summative Usability validation, testing incorporating simulated motion performed to validate pulse rate accuracy across the operating
{5}------------------------------------------------
range of 20 to 250 beats per minute, and testing incorporating simulated motion performed to validate respiration rate accuracy across the operating range of 4 to 40 breaths per minute.
The simulated motion data used to assess respiration rate performance was collected from monitored patients on the general care floor which represents the intended populations and includes extreme boundaries of patient characteristics and artifact. Specifically, this simulation assesses respiration rate accuracy in the presence of motion artifact under conditions of low pulse rate (5th percentile) and low perfusion (5th percentile) and low respiratory variations for all of frequency, amplitude and baseline modulations (all 10th percentile) and validates the respiration rate accuracy across the range of 4 to 40 breaths per minute.
The results of this testing demonstrate that the Nellcor™ Bedside Respiratory Patient Monitoring System has a respiration rate measurement range of 4 to 40 breaths per minute with an accuracy of +1 breath per minute, and is substantially equivalent to the predicate device with respect to Respiration Rate (for adults).
## Clinical Summary
Clinical validation studies on healthy adult volunteers and on subjects from the hospital general care floor were conducted to assess the accuracy of the Respiration Rate Software algorithm. The studies demonstrated the accuracy of the Respiration Rate Software algorithm was as good as the predicate. The studies demonstrated the Respiration Rate Software algorithm calculates respiration rate within a stated accuracy of +1 breath per minute over a range of 4-32 breaths per minute and is shown to be substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
No device related adverse events were observed during the clinical studies.
### Conclusions
The information provided in this 510(k) demonstrates the Nellcor™ Bedside Respiratory Patient Monitoring System is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices with respect to performance.
