One tube delivers oxygen to the patient, while the second tube senses inspiratory/expiratory effort. The device is intended for use by adult and pediatric patients. It functions as a passive interface between the patient and an external demand-based oxygen delivery system. Healthcare providers or patients use the cannula to facilitate oxygen therapy; the output is the delivery of oxygen triggered by the patient's respiratory effort, which can improve oxygen conservation and patient comfort. The device is constructed from PVC with DINCH or DOTP plasticizers. ## Clinical Evidence Bench testing only. Testing verified performance characteristics including back pressure (max < 2 psi), tubing bond strength (all samples > 2 lbs), and environmental storage/transport stability (-29°C to 50°C). Biocompatibility testing confirmed the materials passed irritation, sensitization, cytotoxicity, particulate, and volatile organic compound requirements. Sample size (n=29) supported a 95% confidence level at 91% reliability. ## Technological Characteristics Dual-port nasal cannula; materials: PVC with DINCH or DOTP plasticizers. Sensing/actuation: passive dual-lumen tubing for oxygen delivery and respiratory effort sensing. Dimensions/form factor: standard nasal cannula interface. Connectivity: none (passive). Sterilization: not specified. Software: none. ## Regulatory Identification A noncontinuous ventilator (intermittent positive pressure breathing-IPPB) is a device intended to deliver intermittently an aerosol to a patient's lungs or to assist a patient's breathing. ## Predicate Devices - Demand Nasal Oxygen Cannula ([K890298](/device/K890298.md)) - Modified Demand Nasal Oxygen Cannula ([K892407](/device/K892407.md)) ## Submission Summary (Full Text) > This content was OCRed from public FDA records by [Innolitics](https://innolitics.com).
