Used for percutaneous administration of diagnostic allergenic extracts.
The Medblue Skin Prick Test Applicator is a sterile, single use disposable, multiple test head applicator used to administer skin test substances to the surface of the skin.
The Medblue Skin Prick Test Applicator is used for the conventional percutaneous application of substance directly onto the surface of the skin of diagnostic allergen extracts for performing skin tests for hypersensitivity reactions in individuals suspected of having allergies.
The Medblue Skin Prick Test Applicator is offered in several configurations with 1, 8, 10 or 12 test heads made of medical grade acrylic (ps158N) material arranged in a symmetrical design. Model AS 113 features a metal tip made of 301 stainless steel. All other models have acrylic tips.
Each of the test heads have a "leg". At the tip of each leg is an array of protruding test points (tines). Each leg has 1, 6, or 9 tines. The tines utilize capillary action to hold the allergenic material for percutaneous delivery when the applicator is applied to the skin. Each leg has a stopper to prevent going deeper than the epidermis thickness.
The test heads are designed to fit into the matching asymmetrical well design of a dipwell tray. The applicator loads the allergen from each well in the tray onto each test head.
When properly applied to the skin, the applicator will leave visible indentations in the patient's skin corresponding to the test heads of each applicator. The applicator is not intended to pierce the skin.

Dear Lee Strong:
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 (the 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. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database available at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. 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. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
