## Indications for Use

The Respifit S is indicated for use as a training device and is used for a. conducting strength and endurance training by inhaling into a patient module. The purpose of this training is to improve inspiratory muscle strength and endurance. The training can be performed in adults and patients with neuromuscular disease and cystic fibrosis in the hospital, clinic and home.

## Device Story

Portable inspiratory muscle trainer; used in hospital, clinic, or home settings by patients. Device consists of patient module with aperture; user inhales against resistance to train respiratory muscles. Device electronically measures breathing parameters; provides visual feedback to user. Output includes measurements of endurance and tidal volume. Healthcare providers use output to monitor training progress; device facilitates muscle strengthening and endurance improvement for patients with neuromuscular disease or cystic fibrosis.

## Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only.

## Technological Characteristics

Portable inspiratory muscle trainer; patient module with aperture for resistance-based breathing. Features electronic storage of breathing measurements and visual feedback display. Class II device (Product Code BWF).

## Regulatory Identification

An incentive spirometer is a device that indicates a patient's breathing volume or flow and that provides an incentive to the patient to improve his or her ventilation.

The Respifit S is a portable device for training the respiratory muscles for strength and endurance.

{1}------------------------------------------------

#### Indications for Use

- The Respifit S is indicated for use as a training device and is used for a. conducting strength and endurance training by inhaling into a patient module. The purpose of this training is to improve inspiratory muscle strength and endurance.
- The training can be performed in adults and patients with neuromuscular b. disease and cystic fibrosis in the hospital, clinic and home.

#### Comparison with Predicate Devices

The Respifit S device is a device that is equivalent to the other inspiratory muscle training devices(K842634, K945118, K870514) in that the patient breathes into a mouthpiece against a resistance. The Respifit S also can store electronically breathing measurements and provide visual feedback in a manner similar to the Microlab Spirometer(K031102) from Micro-Direct. The Respifit S device also provides a measurement of endurance depicted as a form of tidal volume. The Microlab Spirometer (K031102) provides a measurement for tidal volume and endurance training is conducted with the other inspiratory muscle training devices(K842634, K945118, K870514) devices, however these devices do not provide measurable outputs. All tests were verified to meet the required acceptance criteria. In summary, the device described in this submission is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices for the reasons mentioned in this section and the submission.

#### Dear Mr. Levine:

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, 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.
