Performance - Shelf Life - . Sterilization process and requirements - Packaging configuration and materials - . Material for the Sleeve and Bottom Cap When compared to the Predicate Device (K861276), the Tamper Evident Caps (K230195), the Subject Device, has the following difference: - Material used for Tip Cap [(Subject Device: ExxonMobil™ PP9074MED Polypropylene Random Copolymer) and (Predicate Device: LyondellBasell Pro-fax 6523 Polypropylene Homopolymer) The material difference is addressed through the comparison to the Reference Device , the Tamper Evident Cap (K193192), which utilizes the same material as the Subject Device. The safety and effectiveness of the TEC Subject Device are supported by the testing rationale and data provided, materials information, and comparison of design characteristics as found in the comparison table above. The testing provided supports the substantial equivalence of the Tamper Evident Cap Subject Device proposed material from that of the Predicate Device and poses no new questions of safety and effectiveness, including shelf life, when compared to the predicate device. No new hazards or risks were identified as a result of the material change. The Subject Device's material remains biocompatible as evidenced in the testing. #### Non-Clinical Performance Data 9. The testing was conducted as part of the Design Control process for the TEC product family to keep current with the latest ISO standard, 80369. For this product line, the applicable standards are ISO 80369-7:2016, "Small-bore connectors for liquids and gases in healthcare applications – Part 7 Connectors for intravascular or hypodermic applications", and ISO 80369-20:2015 "Common test methods". {6}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/6/Picture/1 description: The image shows the logo for IMI. On the left side of the logo is a blue square with three curved white lines inside. To the right of the square are the letters "IMI" in black. A circled "R" is in the upper right corner of the logo. The acceptance criteria stipulated in the design verification protocol for the TEC product family, which was based on ISO 80369-7:2016 and ISO 80369-20:2015 have been met. TEC passes ISO 80369 testing and associated standards and is therefore considered verified. Additionally, the Tamper Evident Caps have undergone a complete set of biocompatibility testing: - ASTM Hemolysis Study Extract Method [(ASTM) F756-17 ISO 10993-4:2017, ISO 10993-● 12:2021] - . Cytotoxicity Study Using the ISO Elution Method [ISO 10993-5:2009, ISO 10993-12:2021, ISO 10993-1:2018] - Infrared Spectroscopy [ISO 10993-18:2020 / A1:2022] - . ISO Acute Systemic Toxicity Study [ISO 10993-1:2018, ISO 10993-11:2017] - ISO Guinea Pig Maximization Sensitization Test [ISO 10993-10:2021] - ISO Intracutaneous Irritation Study - Extract [ISO 10993-23:2021] - . Microscopic Particle Count Test [USP 788] - Particulate Analysis - Device - Light Obscuration Method [USP 788] - . USP Rabbit Pyrogen Study Material Mediated [ISO 10993-11:2017] Tamper Evident Caps have undergone nonclinical testing to support their substantial equivalence to the predicate device. Tamper Evident Caps have passed the required testing. Material differences between the subject device and the predicate device are the same as our company's cleared reference device K193192. There are no additional safety or effectiveness differences between the subject and the predicate devices. Therefore, the Tamper Evident Caps are substantially equivalent to the legally marketed predicate device K861276. ### 10. Clinical Performance Data There was no human clinical testing required to support the medical device as the indications for use are equivalent to the predicate device. ### 11. Conclusion In summary, the Tamper Evident Cap (K231095) is substantially equivalent to the predicate device, Tamper Evident Caps cleared through K861276, in that it has the same intended use, Indications for Use, and sterilization method, and it meets the same test standard (ISO 80369-7). Where there are differences in materials used in the tip cap for the subject device versus the predicate device, the materials used for the subject device are the same as our company's cleared reference device K193192. Overall, the Tamper Evident Cap (K231095) does not raise any new questions of safety or effectiveness when compared to the predicate device, and the data presented supports a determination of Substantial Equivalence.
