Intended Use

The Retractable Safety Insulin Syringe is a sterile, single use, disposable and non-reusable, automatically retractable safety insulin syringe intended for injection of U-100 insulin into the body, while reducing the risk of sharps injuries and the potential for insulin syringe reuse.

Device Description

The Retractable Safety Insulin Syringe has the same technological characteristics as the Retractable Safety Syringe(manufacture by Jiangsu Caina Medical Co., Ltd.) as cleared in K191490 at date 2019/10/03. The difference between the Retractable Safety Insulin Syringe and the 1ml Retractable Safety Syringe is only the scale.

The Retractable Safety Insulin Syringe works like a conventional insulin syringe except for its ability to retract the contaminated needle inside of the syringe immediately after patient injection. Needle retraction is activated by the syringe user. Because the contaminated needle is automatically withdrawn into the syringe plunge, the syringe user is protected from accidental needle sticks. These accidental needle sticks would occur between removing the needle from the patient and disposing of the syringe in a sharps disposable container.

The Retractable Safety Insulin Syringe is available in various specifications. The proposed device consists of eleven components: (1) plunger. (2) piston. (3) barrel. (4) needle cap. (5) sealing plug. (6) slide bushing, (7) needle tube, (8) spring, (9) plunger lid, (10) barrel barb, (11) hub.

The proposed device is provided sterile. The product is sterilized by Ethylene Oxide Gas to achieve a SAL of 10-6 and supplied sterility maintenance package which could maintain the sterility of the device during the shelf life of five years.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text is a 510(k) Summary for a Retractable Safety Insulin Syringe (proposed device) and focuses on demonstrating its substantial equivalence to a predicate device (U&U Insulin Syringe with/without Safety Retractable Device). The acceptance criteria and supporting study details provided are primarily non-clinical, comparing the proposed device against established standards and to the predicate.

Here's the information extracted and organized as requested, with "N/A" where the document does not provide the specific detail, indicating it was likely not part of this specific submission or the type of device.

Study Details

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

    • Test Set Sample Size: Not explicitly stated for each test, but standard test methods (e.g., ISO, ASTM) typically specify lot sizes or sample numbers for compliance testing. The provided values for force measurements (e.g., 10.48-20.91 N) are ranges, suggesting multiple units were tested.
    • Data Provenance: The tests were non-clinical, conducted by the manufacturer (Jiangsu Caina Medical Co., Ltd., China) as part of their substantial equivalence submission. The studies are by nature prospective tests performed on the manufactured device.
  2. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts:

    • Number of Experts: N/A. This was a non-clinical device performance and materials testing study, not a study involving expert human interpretation or ground truth establishment in a clinical sense (e.g., image-based diagnosis). The "ground truth" here is compliance with established international and national standards for medical devices and their components.
    • Qualifications of Experts: N/A. The compliance is assessed by technical testing, not expert consensus on interpretations.
  3. Adjudication Method for the Test Set:

    • Adjudication Method: N/A. As a non-clinical, standards-based compliance study, there was no "adjudication" in the sense of reconciling differing expert opinions. Test results are objective measurements against predefined criteria.
  4. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study Was Done:

    • MRMC Study: No. The document explicitly states: "Simulated clinical study was not conducted on proposed device," and "No clinical study is included in this submission." This type of study is common for diagnostic AI, not for a mechanical medical device like a syringe.
    • Effect Size of Human Readers Improvement: N/A, as no MRMC study was performed.
  5. If a Standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the loop performance) Was Done:

    • Standalone Performance: N/A. This device is a mechanical syringe, not an algorithm. The "performance" discussed is the mechanical, biological, and material compliance of the device itself.
  6. The Type of Ground Truth Used:

    • Ground Truth: The ground truth for this device's acceptance is adherence to established international and national standards (e.g., ISO, ASTM, USP) for the performance, safety, and biocompatibility of syringes and their components, as well as comparison to a legally marketed predicate device. For example, the "ground truth" for "Force to activation" is that it must be <= 25N as per internal specifications driven by standard requirements.
  7. The Sample Size for the Training Set:

    • Training Set Sample Size: N/A. This is a manufactured medical device, not an AI/machine learning algorithm. There is no "training set" in this context. The manufacturing process and design are validated through the non-clinical tests described.
  8. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established:

    • Ground Truth for Training Set: N/A, as this is not an AI/ML context. The device's design and manufacturing processes are based on established engineering principles and existing standards for similar devices.

Comment 1

Differences in safety feature principle between the predicate and subject device were addressed through ISO 23908 Safety Feature Performance Test.The safety feature principle of subject devicer is identical with Retractable Safety Syringes(manufacture by Jiangsu Caina Medical Co., Ltd.) as cleared in K191490 at date 2019/10/03.

Comment 2

Differences in needle length between the predicate and subject device were addressed through ISO 8537 performance testing.

{8}------------------------------------------------

Comment 3

Differences in materials between the predicate and subject device were addressed through Biocompatibility Statement and copy of test report.

Comment 4

Differences in reuse prevention, for the predicate device this is achieved through pulling back the plunger and snapped off, for the proposed device a convex point is designed on the plunger and a barrel barb is designed in the barrel. When the plunger is pushed to the bottom, the barb and convex point are stuck, the plunger can not be re-moved to prevent reuse. At the same time, the front end of the slide bushing opens the barrel to release the needle hub and activate the safety function. Under the spring, the needle hub falls back into the plunger, and the needle tube is shielded inside the plunger. Force to re-move plunger have be tested in Safety Feature Performance Test Report, which is more than 70N. Proposed Device and Predicate Device are different designs, however performance demonstrated the differences do not raise any new safety concerns.

9. Substantially Equivalent (SE) Conclusion

Based on the comparison and analysis above, the proposed devices are determined to be Substantially Equivalent (SE) to the 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).
