## Device Story

The Sevoflurane Vaporizer SV 953 is an anesthetic vaporizer designed for integration with the Siemens Servo Ventilator 900. It functions by vaporizing liquid sevoflurane for controlled delivery of anesthetic gas mixtures to patients during surgery. The device is operated by healthcare professionals (physicians, nurses, technicians) in clinical bedside settings. Modifications from the predicate include a yellow color-coded knob, label, and filling mechanism, a concentration scale ranging from 0.2% to 8%, and an increased capillary tube diameter (0.36 mm) to support the 8% concentration output. The device is not intended for transport in ambulances or helicopters and is not MRI compatible.

## Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. The device design was validated through testing of all settings under the expanded indications, with results meeting or exceeding the criteria applied to the predicate devices.

## Technological Characteristics

Anesthetic vaporizer; mechanical operation. Features a concentration scale (0.2% to 8%) and a 0.36 mm diameter capillary tube. Color-coded yellow for sevoflurane identification. Complies with ISO/DIS 8835-1.2 and ISO 5360. Not MRI compatible.

## Regulatory Identification

An anesthetic vaporizer is a device used to vaporize liquid anesthetic and deliver a controlled amount of the vapor to the patient.
