Ventilators and Ventilator Accessories EUAs

November 8, 2023 - The COVID-19 public health emergency (PHE) declared under section 319 of the Public Health Service (PHS) Act expired on May 11, 2023. The COVID-19 enforcement policy guidances within scope of the Transition Plan for Medical Devices That Fall Within Enforcement Policies Issued During the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) Public Health Emergency (see List 1) are no longer in effect.

The end of the COVID-19 PHE and certain COVID-19 enforcement policy guidances no longer being in effect do not impact the FDA's ability to authorize devices, including tests, for emergency use. Existing emergency use authorizations (EUAs) for devices relating to COVID-19 remain in effect under section 564 of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. The FDA encourages manufacturers of devices issued EUAs related to COVID-19 to review the guidance: Transition Plan for Medical Devices Issued Emergency Use Authorizations (EUAs) Related to Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19), which outlines the FDA's recommendations and expectations to such manufacturers to transition to normal operations when the declarations that allowed for FDA to issue EUAs under section 564 of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act end. Additional information is provided on the page FAQs: What happens to EUAs when a public health emergency ends?

A continuous ventilator is a device intended to mechanically control or assist patient breathing by delivering a predetermined percentage of oxygen in the breathing gas. FDA has issued EUAs to help increase the availability of ventilators and ventilator accessories, which are integral to treat patients with severe respiratory distress during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Umbrella EUA for Ventilators and Ventilator Accessories

On March 24, 2020, FDA issued an umbrella EUA in response to concerns about the insufficient supply and availability of FDA-cleared ventilators for use in health care settings to treat patients during the COVID-19 public health emergency. This EUA authorizes the emergency use of certain ventilators, anesthesia gas machines modified for use as ventilators, positive pressure breathing devices modified for use as ventilators, ventilator tubing connectors, and ventilator accessories that the FDA determines meet specified criteria for safety, performance, and labeling. See FAQs on Ventilators for more information.

The scope of this authorization is limited to the use of ventilators, ventilator tubing connectors, and ventilator accessories listed below in Appendix B: Authorized Ventilators, Ventilator Tubing Connectors, and Ventilator Accessories for use in healthcare settings by patients during the COVID-19 public health emergency.

For Ventilator EUA: The interactive review template, which can be used to provide information to FDA, to support inclusion of an eligible product under the Ventilator EUA is available: Ventilator EUA Interactive Review Template (Updated April 21, 2020)

The tables below lists the ventilators, ventilator tubing connectors, and ventilator accessories authorized in this umbrella EUA.


Appendix B: Authorized Ventilators, Ventilator Tubing Connectors, and Ventilator Accessories (Updated April 3, 2024)
