#### 5.2 Device Description

Solo™ and Swing Maxi™ are breast pump systems intended to be used in a home environment (or similar such as an office). Solo™ and Swing Maxi™ comprise a pump unit, power adapter, and one (Solo™) or two (Swing Maxi™) PersonalFit Flex™ connectors that include the connector body, membrane (diaphragm), and connector back cap. The breast pump systems also include breast shields (21, 24, 27, and 30 mm), bottle lid, bottle stand, and tubing. The device is provided non-sterile.

The breast pumps can be used on one breast (single pumping; Solo™ and Swing Maxi™)) or on both breasts (double pumping) at the same time (Swing Maxi 101).

The Solo"M and Swing Maxi™ breast pumps feature 2-Phase Expression® technology, which runs pumping in two phases (Stimulation and Expression) by applying a cyclic negative pressure to mimic a baby's natural nursing rhythm. A DC motor is used to drive a membrane aggregate. This membrane aggregate creates the negative pressure (suction) required to extract the breast milk. The pump unit includes the following features:

- user-adjustable controls: "On/Pause/Off" for powering on/off or pausing the device, "Letdown" for switching between pumping modes, and "Increase vacuum"/ "Decrease vacuum" for controlling vacuum intensity levels;
- a port for connection of the tubing that channels the vacuum for breast pumping;
- a port for connection of the power supply;
- a central LED light as status indicator; and
- a textile lanyard as an interface to the user's clothes/body.

The Solo™ and Swing Maxi™ breast pump systems allow the user to adjust the vacuum levels in both phases (stimulation and expression). The powered breast pumps are preprogrammed with variable vacuum levels and cvcle rates. The powered breast pumps are capable of providing vacuum levels from -45 to -140 mmHg with cycle speeds up to 111 cycles per minute for stimulation and from -45 to -245 mmHg with cycle speeds from 75 to 45 cycles per minute for expression.

Two different product configurations are available for the Swing Maxi™ breast pump: without and with Bluetooth®. These two product configurations share the same mechanical and electrical design components; however, the Swing Maxi111 breast pump with Bluetooth® additionally features always-on enabled Bluetooth® connectivity. This allows monodirectional wireless data transmission from the breast pump to a Bluetooth®-enabled personal mobile device, such as a smartphone or tablet computer. When the Medela FamilyTM smart application is installed on a compatible mobile device and the device is paired via Bluetooth® with the breast pump unit, the user can: automatically record pumping data (session length, phases, and vacuum intensity levels), manually input the amount of milk expressed, and get notified when the battery is low as indicated in provided instructional material and in-app information.

#### 5.3 Indications for Use

The Solo™ / Swing Maxi™ breast pumps are powered breast pumps to be used by lactating women to express and collect milk from their breasts.

The Solo™ / Swing Maxi™ breast pumps are intended for a single user.

The breast pumps are intended to be used in a home environment.

{6}------------------------------------------------

#### 5.4 Comparison of Technological Characteristics

The Solo TM / Swing MaxilM breast pumps have similar indications for use, intended use, and has similar fundamental technology as the legally marketed predicate device to which substantial equivalency is claimed, the Freestyle Flex™ breast pump (K191653). In addition, several Medela breast pumps are referenced to demonstrate further substantial equivalence to prior devices.

- 1. Medela Pump In Style® breast pump (K200508) as it includes the same connectors as the subject device.
- 2. Medela Pump In Style® Advanced breast pump (K181937) as it includes the same breast shields as the subject device.
- 3. Medela Symphony® (K020518, K151632) as it is the original Medela device with the same 2-Phase Expression® Technology (Stimulation and Expression) as the subject device.

The subject and predicate devices have identical indications for use and the same intended use expressing milk from the breasts of lactating women. The subject and predicate device have similar technological features. The subject and predicate device differ in the battery specifications and provided accessories. These differences between the subject and predicate devices do not raise different questions of safety or effectiveness.

#### ર્સ રે રી mmary of Non-Clinical Tests

The Solo™ / Swing Maxi™ breast pumps comply with voluntary standards for electrical saf ectromagnetic compatibility, use in the home healthcare environment and usability. The ollowing performance data are provided in support of the substantial equivalence determination:

- Electrical Safety testing in accordance with ANSI/AAMI ES60601-1:2005/(R)2012 and A1:2012, C1:2009/(R)2012 and A2:2010/(R)2012, Medical Electrical Equipment - Part 1: General requirements for Basic Safety and Essential Performance.
- Electrical safety testing for use in home in accordance with IEC 60601-11:2015 (Edition 2.0), Medical Electrical Equipment - Part 1-11: General requirements for Basic Safety and issential Performance - Collateral standard: Requirements for medical electrical equipment and medical electrical systems used in the home healthcare environment.
- Risk analysis in accordance with ISO 14971:2007 (Second Edition), Medical Devices -Application of Risk Management to Medical Devices.
- Electromagnetic compatibility testing in accordance with IEC 60601-1-2:2014 (Edition 4.0), Medical electrical equipment - Part 1-2: General requirements for Basic Safety and Essential Performance - Collateral Standard: Electromagnetic Disturbances - Requirements and Tests.
- Biocompatibility evaluation was completed according to the FDA guidance document "Use of International Standard ISO 10993-1, Biological evaluation of medical devices - Part 1: valuation and testing within a risk management process," dated September 04, 2020 and concluded that no new testing was required as all patient-contacting materials are identical those used in the predicate device Freestyle Flex™ (K191653).
- The software validation as provided in accordance with the FDA Guidance document "Guidance for the Content of Premarket Submissions for Software Contained in Medical Devices" dated May 11, 2005. The software for the subject device was considered as a Moderate" level of concern, since prior to mitigations of hazards, failure of the software could lead to minor injury, such as pain.
- Bench testing was conducted with settings to determine the minimum and maximum vacuum levels of the pumps as well as cycle rate compared to the specifications. The specifications ere met under conditions of single pumping (for Solo 110) and of single and double pumping or Swing Maxi™) modes with power supply from both the internal battery and external C/DC power adaptor.
- Battery and pump use life testing was conducted to demonstrate that the device maintains its pecifications throughout its use life.

#### 5.6 Conclusions

The subject and predicate devices have the same intended use and the technological differences ot raise different questions of safety or effectiveness. The performance data demons ject device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
