The DeVilbiss Intellipap2/DeVilbiss BLUE Series is intended for use in treating OSA in spontaneously breathing patients 30 Kg (66 lbs) and above by means of application of positive air pressure. The Device is to be used in Home and Healthcare Environments.
Device Story
DeVilbiss Intellipap2/DeVilbiss BLUE is a CPAP/Auto-CPAP device for treating obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). It pressurizes room air, delivering it to the patient's airway via a nasal or oral-nasal mask to keep the airway open during sleep. Used in home and healthcare environments by patients under physician prescription. Features include Bluetooth connectivity, PulseDose humidity, USB serial communication, and SmartCode Rx for prescription settings. The device monitors respiratory events (apnea, hypopnea, snoring, flow limitation, etc.) and adjusts pressure accordingly. It can connect to an optional Nonin 3150 WristOx2 oximeter to log SpO2 and pulse rate. Data is transferred via SD card or USB. The device provides therapy to maintain prescribed pressure, helping prevent breathing interruptions and improving patient outcomes.
Clinical Evidence
Single-center, prospective, controlled study (n=28) comparing the revised respiratory event detection algorithm to hand-scored PSG. Subjects (mean age 54, 57% male) with moderate-to-severe OSA on stable therapy acted as their own controls. Primary objective: demonstrate effectiveness of therapy as reported by expert human reviewer. Results showed the device algorithm is equivalent to hand-scored PSG for sleep event analysis and pressure titration. No device-related adverse events reported.
Indicated for spontaneously breathing patients 30 kg (66 lbs) and above with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).

## Clinical Testing:
Clinical testing was performed to validate the respiratory event detection and pressure change decisions made by the proposed device during therapy. A single-center, prospective, controlled study was designed to validate improvements to the predicate software algorithm in the DeVilbiss AutoAdjust CPAP flow generator, a device that is already FDA-cleared under K071689 and in use in the U.S. The revised algorithm is intended to improve precision of treatment and phenotyping of residual disease.
Subjects with a sleep apnea diagnosis who were on stable therapy enrolled in a one-night PSG titration study. DeVilbiss AutoAdjust CPAP device with revised algorithm was compared to hand-scored PSG to determine whether the machine results are equivalent to hand scores. Each subject acted as their own control for assessing accuracy of sleep event analysis and prescribed CPAP pressure.
The primary objective of the study was to demonstrate effectiveness of therapy provided by the DeVilbiss AutoAdjust CPAP device as reported by an expert human reviewer. A total of 28 subjects, with a diagnosis of moderate to severe sleep apnea on stable therapy, completed the study. 57% of subjects were male and 43% were female. Subject ages ranged from 27 to 75 years, with a mean age of 54.0 years. Twenty six of the subjects completing the study were diagnosed with Obstructive Sleep Apnea, and 2 with Mixed Sleep Apnea. Three (3) adverse events were reported for one subject. All the events consisted of mild digestive distress and were unrelated to the study device. No safety concerns were raised in the course of the study.
## Statement of Safety and Effectiveness:
Analysis of comparison of design, function and features of the proposed DeVilbiss Intellipap2/DeVilbiss BLUE Series to the predicates DeVilbiss IntelliPAP DV5 Series cleared under K071689, and substantially equivalent to Respironics, Inc, Remstar Auto A-Flex HT cleared under K113068, together with the results of testing demonstrates the device to be substantially equivalent to the predicate devices in terms of meeting performance criteria and functioning as intended.

Part 2 — Embeddings: the galaxy map 3 min
1. Search: exact and fuzzy
Type a phrase like "coronary artery calcification" into the search box. You get two kinds of results. Exact results match the literal phrase — prefix searches work ("coronary artery calcificati") but suffix searches do not. Fuzzy results match on the meaning and intent of your phrase rather than the exact words, and are sorted by relevance score. Hover over the Exact or Fuzzy badge on any row to see exactly why it matched.
Use the checkboxes above the results to narrow: SaMD keeps only software-only devices, AI / ML keeps only devices with AI.
Exact vs. fuzzy search: what's the difference?
Exact matches on the literal phrase (prefix search works, suffix does not). Fuzzy matches on the meaning and intent of the phrase rather than the exact words. Hover over the badge on any row to see why it matched.
You search "coronary artery calcification" and want only software devices with AI. What two filters do you apply?
Narrow by SaMD (software-only devices), then narrow by AI/ML (devices with AI).
2. The results table
Scroll right in the results table. The intended use is extracted for you — no need to open the PDF. The device story gives a high-level snapshot of what the device does and how it's used. The AI Performance sub-table shows each output name, acceptance criteria, observed values, and development/test dataset descriptions — the same format Innolitics uses for regulatory strategy outputs, and the fastest high-level fingerprint of an AI device. It is AI-generated but has been very reliable in practice.

Scroll right in the search results table. The intended use column is extracted for you; no need to dig into the 510(k) summary PDF.
What does the AI Performance sub-table show, and why is it useful?
Output name, acceptance criteria, observed values, development dataset description, and test dataset description. It's the same format we use for regulatory strategy output and Fast 510(k) input, and the fastest high-level fingerprint of an AI device. AI-generated but reliable in practice.
3. Judging fuzzy relevance
Fuzzy results trail off in relevance as you scroll. Use three signals to decide how far down to go: the fuzzy badge explanations, the intended use column, and whether your target output (e.g., Cobb angle) still appears in the AI Performance sub-table. Once it stops appearing, you're past the relevant zone. A top hit with a low score (~0.4) and a stretched explanation is a hint the closest predicates are far away — the project may be headed for De Novo. Note the fuzzy search is a pattern match: it doesn't handle negation ("not") well, and hardware devices can appear — filter by SaMD/AI ML to cut them.
How do you judge how far down fuzzy search results to go?
Use the relevancy signals: the fuzzy badge explanations, the intended use column, and whether the target output (e.g., Cobb angle) still appears in the AI Performance sub-table. Once it stops appearing, results are trailing off in relevancy.
4. Device detail page: chat and citations
Click a device name to open its detail page: device facts on the left, a chat window on the right. Ask something like "Describe the training data". The answer carries little citation bubbles — click one to jump to the highlighted passage in the source PDF, so you can verify every AI answer against the document. There's also a Download PDF button for sharing.
How do you verify an AI chat answer on the device detail page?
Click the citation bubbles to jump to the relevant highlight in the source document.
Reading rule for every project: how many summaries do you read in full?
At least the three most relevant 510(k) or De Novo summaries, in full. After that, use targeted chat questions to confirm your memory quickly. The tool supports this professional habit — it doesn't replace it.
5. Side-by-side comparison
Select multiple rows in the results table (aim for under ~10), then open the PDF Viewer tab. Ask one question — it goes to all selected devices in parallel, each with citations. This is the fastest way to compare and contrast devices: training data, PCCP scope, how they handled adding new scanners, and so on.
What does the side-by-side PDF viewer mode do?
Select multiple devices, open the PDF viewer tab, and ask one question (e.g., "Describe the training data"). It queries all selected devices simultaneously with citations, so you can compare and contrast quickly.
6. Collections
With rows selected, go to the Collections tab and create a labeled collection (e.g., "Cobb Angle Project"). Reload that selection any time — before a client call, pull up the collection and ask questions across all of its devices at once.
How do you save a set of selected devices for later use?
Select the rows, go to the Collections tab, and create a labeled collection (e.g., "Cobb Angle Project"). You can reload the selection anytime and carry it into the PDF viewer and other tabs that support selections.
7. Product codes and the regulations tree
Click a product code in the results to jump to it in the regulations tree — identification text, sibling product codes, and devices you can open in a PDF viewer on the right. Click a regulation number to see its identification, special controls, and related product codes. You can also search by product code or regulation number at the top of the tree. Always read the special controls if any exist for your device — it broadens your search and sharpens pre-kickoff research.
What can you do from the regulations tree view?
Browse product codes and regulation numbers, read the identification text and special controls, browse sibling product codes, open device PDFs on the right, and search by product code or regulation number at the top of the tree.
8. Chart view
Click Show Chart and segment by regulation number (or product code) to see which regulations dominate your result set. Clicking a regulation takes you into the regulations tree. Great for spotting that most matches are, say, hardware laparoscopic devices — a cue to go back and filter.
How do you see which regulations dominate a search result set?
Click "Show Chart" and segment by Regulation Number. Clicking a regulation takes you to the regulations tree.
9. The predicate graph
Open the Predicates tab for a family-tree view of predicate relationships. Click a node to trace its parents and children; selections from search carry over pre-selected. Commonly predicated devices are worth reading — a lot of people predicated them for a reason. The visual lineage is also handy on client calls, e.g. to show how a predicate family evolved and justify why your predicate still holds.
In the predicate graph, why are commonly predicated devices worth reading?
A lot of people predicated them for a reason. Clicking a node traces parents and children, and selections from search carry over pre-selected.
10. Embeddings: the galaxy map
The Embeddings tab plots every matching document in a 2-D "galaxy map" where semantically similar devices cluster together. Hover or click clusters to explore, and let AI label the clusters for you. Embeddings beat product codes for grouping: two devices can carry different product codes (LLZ vs. QIH) yet do the same thing — the embedding captures the meaning of the intended use and device story. This is also exactly how retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) works under the hood, and it makes a great visual on client calls.
Try it yourself
Head to the search page and work through a few of these AI/ML fuzzy searches to build intuition: perivascular fat on CT · aortic valve calcification opportunistic screening on noncontrast CT · breast cancer prediction on digital pathology slides · autism detection · gestational age prediction · a hearing aid that can also detect a pulse · foundation model based analysis of ECG · large language models · penetration test. Watch how the relevance scores, intended use, and AI Performance tables tell you when results stop being meaningful.
