Intended Use

The NeoMed Urinary Catheter is intended for use in neonatal and pediatric patients to sample urine and/or facilitate urinary drainage. This catheter is NOT a Foley (balloon) type catheter. This catheter is intended for temporary use and will be in contact with the patient for less than 30 days.

Device Description

The NeoMed Urinary Catheter is a silicone single lumen catheter that is used to drain urine. The device consists of the following main components: a single lumen urinary catheter, a hub, and a luer lock connector. It is available with either an orange radiopaque stripe or a natural white stripe (supplied from the barium sulfate loaded in the catheter).

AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes the NeoMed Urinary Catheter and its clearance for market based on substantial equivalence to a predicate device, the CATCO Urological Catheter (K944782). The key information for acceptance criteria and the supporting study is:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance:

The document summarizes the acceptance criteria and performance based on equivalence to the predicate device.

Acceptance CriteriaReported Device Performance Statement
Method of OperationSame method of operation as predicate: drainage of urine through a single lumen catheter.
Functional EquivalenceBench testing demonstrated functional equivalence to predicate and other urinary catheters.
Safety and EffectivenessMinor differences do not affect safety or effectiveness.
BiocompatibilityMaterials have a long history of use in catheter and urethral catheter manufacture and are biocompatible.
Intended Use PerformancePerforms its intended use of urine drainage.
Duration of ContactIntended for temporary use (< 30 days).
Patient PopulationIntended for neonatal and pediatric patients.
Catheter TypeNOT a Foley (balloon) type catheter.

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance:

The document states "Bench testing has demonstrated that the NeoMed Urinary Catheter is functionally equivalent to predicate urinary catheters". However, it does not specify the sample size for this bench testing. It also does not provide information on the data provenance (e.g., country of origin, retrospective or prospective) of this testing.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts:

The document does not mention the use of experts to establish ground truth for a test set. The evaluation relies on functional equivalence to a predicate device.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set:

An adjudication method is not described as the evaluation is based on bench testing for functional equivalence rather than clinical studies requiring expert review or consensus.

5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study Was Done:

No Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done or mentioned. The submission is focused on substantial equivalence through bench testing, not on comparing the device's effectiveness assisted by AI with human readers.

6. If a Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) Was Done:

This device is not an AI algorithm. It is a physical medical device (urinary catheter). Therefore, a standalone performance study in the context of AI is not applicable and was not done.

7. The Type of Ground Truth Used:

The ground truth or basis for evaluation is the performance and characteristics of the predicate device (CATCO Urological Catheter, K944782) and other currently marketed urinary catheters. The device's performance is gauged against established functional criteria for such catheters and their known biocompatibility.

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set:

This device is a physical medical device, not an AI model. Therefore, the concept of a "training set" is not applicable in this context and no information is provided.

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established:

As this is not an AI model, the concept of a training set and its ground truth is not applicable. The device's design and manufacturing are based on established engineering principles and materials used in similar predicate devices.

SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE:

The NeoMed Urinary Catheter is substantially equivalent to the CATCO Urological Catheter cleared under K944782.

Both devices have the same method of operation, drainage of urine through a single lumen catheter. Bench testing has demonstrated that the NeoMed Urinary Catheter is functionally equivalent to predicate urinary catheters currently on the market and that any minor differences do not affect safety or effectiveness.

DESCRIPTION OF THE DEVICE:

The NeoMed Urinary Catheter is a silicone single lumen catheter that is used to drain urine.

The device consists of the following main components: a single lumen urinary catheter, a hub, and a luer lock connector. It is available with either an orange radiopaque stripe or a natural white stripe (supplied from the barium sulfate loaded in the catheter).

INDICATIONS FOR USE:

This product is intended for use in neonatal and pediatric patients to sample urine and/or facilitate urinary drainage. This catheter is NOT a Foley (balloon) type catheter. This catheter is intended for temporary use and will be in contact with the patient for less than 30 days.

PERFORMANCE DATA:

The NeoMed Urinary Catheter materials that come in direct contact with the patient have a long history of use in catheter and urethral catheter manufacture and are biocompatible. Functional test results demonstrate that the NeoMed Urinary Catheter performs its intended use of urine drainage and is equivalent to the predicate device.

CONCLUSION:

Based on the performance testing, it can be concluded that the NeoMed Urinary Catheter is equivalent to the predicate CATCO Urological Catheter with respect to intended use and technological characteristics.

Dear Ms. Northcutt:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
