Intended Use
The Dideco Venomidicard and Midicard are hardshell blood collection reservoirs intended for use in CPB circuits and postoperative blood salvage procedures.
Device Story
Sterile, nonpyrogenic, disposable hardshell reservoirs; contain integral cardiotomy filter, polyurethane defoamer sponge, and outer gross filter screen. Used in clinical settings during or after cardiopulmonary bypass procedures. Collects shed mediastinal blood for autotransfusion. Operates via passive collection of blood; filters debris and defoams blood before reinfusion. Benefits patient by enabling autotransfusion of shed blood, reducing need for donor blood products.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. In vitro physical and functional testing performed, including vacuum integrity, hemolysis, residual volume, and filter pressurization. Biocompatibility testing conducted per Tripartite Guidelines for short-term blood-contacting materials; results comparable to negative controls.
Technological Characteristics
Hardshell reservoir; polyurethane defoamer sponge; outer gross filter screen. Sterile, nonpyrogenic, disposable. Materials tested for biocompatibility per Tripartite Guidelines. No electronic components or software.
Indications for Use
Indicated for use in cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) circuits and postoperative blood salvage (autotransfusion) procedures for patients requiring collection of shed mediastinal blood.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A cardiopulmonary bypass blood reservoir is a device used in conjunction with short-term extracorporeal circulation devices to hold a reserve supply of blood in the bypass circulation.
Special Controls
*Classification.* Class II (special controls), except that a reservoir that contains a defoamer or filter is classified into the same class as the defoamer or filter. The device, when it is a cardiopulmonary bypass blood reservoir that does not contain defoamers or blood filters, is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 870.9.

## E. Device Name
Trade or Proprietary Name:
Venomidicard Pediatric Venous Reservoir with Integral Cardiotomy Filter
Midicard Pediatric Cardiotomy Reservoir
Common Name:
Cardiotomy Reservoir, Venous Reservoir with Integral Cardiotomy Filter
Classification Name:
Cardiopulmonary Bypass Blood Reservoir
Cardiopulmonary Bypass Cardiotomy Suction Line Blood Filter
## F. Summary of Substantial Equivalence
The Venomidicard and Midicard reservoirs are judged to be substantially equivalent in intended use, materials, design, and performance characteristics to the Sorin Hardshell Venous Reservoir (HSVRF). The HSVRF was cleared for chest drainage on September 30, 1987 (K872719). These devices were designed for use in chest drainage and are marketed by DIDECO for that intended use outside the United States.
## G. Device Description
The Venomidicard and Midicard are sterile, nonpyrogenic, disposable, hardshell reservoirs that contain an integral cardiotomy filter. Each device contains a polyurethane defoamer sponge and outer gross filter screen.
## H. Intended Use
The Venomidicard and Midicard reservoirs are intended to allow for the collection and autotransfusion of shed mediastinal blood following cardiopulmonary bypass procedures.
## I. Summary of Comparison of Technological Characteristics
The technological characteristics of the Venomidicard and Midicard are similar to the Sorin Hardshell Venous Reservoir with respect to chest drainage autotransfusion. These devices have a similar number of cardiotomy inlet ports, have similar filter elements, and are similar in setup and use for chest drainage.

## J. Summary of Nonclinical Tests
Substantial equivalence was based on a comparison of test results from the following *in vitro* physical and functional tests:
**Physical Tests**
Vacuum Integrity
**Functional Tests**
Hemolysis
Residual Volume
Filter Pressurization
All testing was conducted on nonaged, sterile devices. Test results show similar performance characteristics between the Venomidicard and Midicard and the Sorin Hardshell Venous Reservoir with respect to the expanded use of chest drainage autotransfusion.
**Biocompatibility**
Biocompatibility testing was previously performed on a finished, sterilized device in accordance with the Tripartite Guidelines for Biocompatibility testing for short term blood contacting materials. All test results were comparable to the negative control groups. Therefore, the materials used in these devices are considered acceptable for their intended use.
## K. Conclusions
Based upon the above information, Sorin Biomedical Inc. concludes that the Venomidicard Pediatric Venous Reservoir with Integral Cardiotomy Filter and the Midicard Pediatric Cardiotomy Reservoir are substantially equivalent to the Sorin Hardshell Venous Reservoir for use in chest drainage autotransfusion.
