Intended Use

The BD U-500 Insulin Syringe is intended for the subcutaneous injection of U-500 insulin for patients requiring more than 200 units per day.

Device Description

The U-500 Insulin Syringe is a standard single use 0.5mL plastic syringe intended for the injection of U-500 insulin into the subcutaneous tissue. It features a 31G needle and 6 mm needle length with unique U-500 scale markings on the syringe barrel. The U-500 syringe also features a green needle shield and a green U-500 symbol. It is a single use, sterile, nontoxic syringe. The fluid path of the syringe is sterile and non-pyrogenic.

AI/ML Overview

This document pertains to a 510(k) premarket notification for a medical device, specifically the BD U-500 Insulin Syringe. The information provided describes the device, its intended use, comparison to a predicate device, and the non-clinical performance testing conducted to demonstrate substantial equivalence.

Here's an analysis of the provided text in relation to your request:

1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance

Acceptance Criteria (from ISO 8537, Volumetric Accuracy)Reported Device Performance
At volumes < half of nominal capacity (including the lowest selectable dose): Volumetric accuracy shall be within ± [1.5% of nominal capacity + 2% of expelled volume].Device met requirements for its intended use.
At volumes ≥ half of nominal capacity: Volumetric accuracy shall be ± 5%.Device met requirements for its intended use.

Other acceptance criteria for functional performance (from ISO 8537, but specific values not detailed):

  • Device functional performance at time-zero and shelf-life (e.g., plunger force, break loose force, etc., though not explicitly stated with values in this summary). The summary states "met requirements."

Other acceptance criteria for various tests (specific values not detailed):

  • Device material biocompatibility per ISO 10993-1. The summary states "met requirements."
  • Human factor evaluations per ANSI/AAMI/IEC 62366-1. The summary states "met requirements."
  • Device sterilization per ISO 11737. The summary states "met requirements."
  • U-500 Insulin Stability. The summary states "met requirements."
  • Extractables and Leachables Testing. The summary states "met requirements."
  • Sterility Assurance Level (SAL): 10^-6. The summary states the subject device has an SAL of 10^-6, which matches the predicate.

2. Sample sized used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)

The document primarily discusses non-clinical (laboratory) testing. It does not specify sample sizes (e.g., number of syringes tested) for each test or the country of origin of the data. The testing would be considered prospective, as it involves testing newly manufactured devices according to established protocols.

3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts (e.g. radiologist with 10 years of experience)

This device is not an AI/ML or diagnostic device that requires expert review for "ground truth" establishment in the typical sense. The "ground truth" for the performance tests (e.g., volumetric accuracy) would be established by the physical measurements themselves, compared against the specified ISO standards.

Human factors evaluations (per ANSI/AAMI/IEC 62366-1) likely involved user studies or expert review to assess usability and identify potential use errors, but the number and qualifications of individuals involved in these evaluations are not specified in this summary.

4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set

Not applicable for this type of non-clinical device performance testing. Adjudication methods are typically used in clinical studies or for diagnostic/interpretive devices where expert agreement is needed to establish a reference standard.

5. If a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, if so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance

Not applicable. This is a physical medical device (insulin syringe), not an AI/ML-driven diagnostic or image analysis system. No "human readers" or "AI assistance" are involved in its performance assessment.

6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done

Not applicable. This is a physical medical device.

7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.)

For the volumetric accuracy and other functional tests, the "ground truth" is defined by the objective, measurable criteria set forth in recognized international standards (e.g., ISO 8537) and internal company specifications. For biocompatibility, it's defined by ISO 10993. For sterility, it's defined by ISO 11737.

8. The sample size for the training set

Not applicable. This is a physical device, and the testing described is performance verification/validation, not the training of an AI/ML model.

9. How the ground truth for the training set was established

Not applicable. As above, this document does not describe the training of an AI/ML model.

Legally marketed predicate device(s) to which substantial equivalence is being claimed: K024112 - BD Insulin Syringe

Reason for Submission

To introduce the new BD U-500 Insulin Syringe that comprises modifications to an existing device with new packaging, labeling, and indications for use.

Device Description:

The U-500 Insulin Syringe is a standard single use 0.5mL plastic syringe intended for the injection of U-500 insulin into the subcutaneous tissue. It features a 31G needle and 6 mm needle length with unique U-500 scale markings on the syringe barrel. The U-500 syringe also features a green needle shield and a green U-500 symbol. It is a single use, sterile, nontoxic syringe. The fluid path of the syringe is sterile and non-pyrogenic.

Indications for Use:

The BD U-500 Insulin Syringe is intended for the subcutaneous injection of U-500 insulin for patients requiring more than 200 units per day.

Comparison with Predicate Devices:

The BD U-500 Insulin Syringe has a similar intended use and operational principle as its predicate device for the subcutaneous injection of insulin. It also shares several similarities in technology compared to its predicate device consisting of a barrel, a movable plunger, the needle, and needle cover. These syringes are Gamma sterilized and are for single use only.

The only differences between the subject device and the predicate device are the syringe barrel scale markings, the color of the needle shield (green) and the packaging graphics. Each scale mark line on the U-500 Insulin Syringe measures 5 units of U-500 insulin due to the 5times concentrated U-500 insulin product. Caution should be observed in the measurement of dosage to avoid overdose. The green needle shield, green U-500 symbol on the syringe, and the syringe packaging graphics are designed to match the color of the U-500 insulin vial labeling.

  • U-500 Insulin Stability: and ●
  • Extractables and Leachables Testing. ●

Results of testing demonstrated the BD U-500 Insulin Syringe device met requirements for its intended use.

Conclusion:

The analysis and testing performed demonstrate that the BD U-500 Insulin Syringe device is substantially equivalent to its predicate device.

§ 880.5860 Piston syringe.

(a)
Identification. A piston syringe is a device intended for medical purposes that consists of a calibrated hollow barrel and a movable plunger. At one end of the barrel there is a male connector (nozzle) for fitting the female connector (hub) of a hypodermic single lumen needle. The device is used to inject fluids into, or withdraw fluids from, the body.(b)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).
