Substantial Equivalence Discussion
The only differences between the predicate and subject devices are those identified earlier in this Summary. Specific bench tests have been completed to ensure the new models and modified devices perform to specification.
In addition, new materials have been introduced to the device range, and finished, sterile devices with these new materials have been subjected to biocompatibility tests in accordance with the applicable parts of ISO 10993 for the appropriate nature of patient contact and duration of contact.
The Indications for Use statement for the Deltaven Fast Flash Closed I.V. Catheter systems is unchanged from the predicate, K171530.
Based on the above similarities and differences, the subject device does not raise different types of safety and effectiveness questions when compared to the predicate device.
