## Indications for Use
The Babi*Plus Bubble PAP Valve is a single patient use positive end expiratory pressure valve for use with infant patients weighing < 10 Kg in hospital environments to increase end lung pressure above atmospheric in constant flow conditions.
## Device Story
Babi*Plus Bubble PAP Valve is a single-patient-use water seal positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP) device. It functions by increasing end lung pressure above atmospheric levels under constant flow conditions. Used in hospital critical care settings for neonates and infants. Device connects to respiratory circuits to provide bubble CPAP therapy. Healthcare providers monitor the device to ensure appropriate pressure delivery. Benefits include non-invasive respiratory support for infants requiring elevated lung pressure. Operation is limited to hospital environments; contraindicated for patient transport or non-hospital use.
## Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Testing confirmed accuracy of the device at gas flows from 1 to 12 liters per minute and compliance with ISO 5356-1:2004 standards for conical connectors.
## Technological Characteristics
Single-patient-use water seal PEEP valve. Conical connectors meet ISO 5356-1:2004. Operates via water seal mechanism for pressure regulation. Designed for constant flow conditions (1-12 LPM).
## Regulatory Identification
A positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP) breathing attachment is a device attached to a ventilator that is used to elevate pressure in a patient's lungs above atmospheric pressure at the end of exhalation.
## Predicate Devices
- Water Seal PEEP Valve (Preamendment device)
- Disposable PEEP Valve ([K082092](/device/K082092.md))
- Disposable PEEP Valve ([K902062](/device/K902062.md))

### Device Description:
Single patient use water seal positive end expiratory pressure device.
#### Indications for Use:
The Babi*Plus Bubble PAP Valve is a single patient use positive end expiratory pressure valve for use with infant patients weighing < 10 Kg in hospital environments to increase end lung pressure above atmospheric in constant flow conditions.
#### Contraindications:
Contraindicated in individuals not requiring elevated lung pressure therapy.
#### Patient Population:
Patient populations from neonate to infant.
#### Environment of Use:
Hospital
# Comparative of Technological Characteristics:
The A Plus Medical Babi*Plus Bubble PAP Valve is substantially equivalent in indications for use, environment of use, patient population, material and function to the identified predicate and to devices that were in the market before 1976 and/or the post 1976 identified predicates. The A Plus Medical Babit PAP Valve and identified predicate device meet the requirements set forth ISO 5356- 1:2004 entitled "Anaesthetic and respiratory equipment - Conical connectors: Part 1: Cones and sockets". Bench testing confirmed the accuracy of the A Plus Medical BabitPlus Bubble PAP Valve and predicate device at gas flows from 1 to 12 liters per minute.
#### Conclusion:
The A Plus Medical Babi*Plus Bubble PAP Valve is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices that were in the market before 1976 identified predicates. The A Plus Medical Babi*Plus Bubble PAP Valve and all identified predicates have substantially equivalent performance. Both devices are made from substantially equivalent material, intended use and patient populations. The A Plus Medical Babi*Plus Bubble PAP Valve is limited to use in acute hospital critical facilities and is contraindicated in individuals not requiring elevated end expiratory pressure, gas flows over 12 LPM, patient transport or non hospital use.

Dear Mr. Loescher:
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.
