This device is used for collecting, transporting, and processing blood samples for in vitro diagnostic testing in a clinical laboratory, not for treating or diagnosing a disease or condition in a patient.

No
The device is used to collect, transport, and process blood samples, which are then used for testing. It is a tool for diagnostic procedures, but not a diagnostic device itself as it does not perform any diagnostic analysis or provide a diagnosis.

No

The device description clearly outlines physical components such as tubes, caps, and a vacuum tube holder, indicating it is a hardware device for blood collection.

Based on the provided text, the device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states the tubes are used to "collect, transport and process blood for testing plasma or whole blood in the clinical laboratory." This directly aligns with the definition of an IVD, which are devices intended for use in vitro for the examination of specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic purposes.
  • Device Description: The description further supports this by detailing the components used for blood collection and processing for laboratory testing.
  • Intended User / Care Setting: The intended user is the "clinical laboratory," which is a typical setting for IVD use.
  • Performance Studies: The mention of a study conducted on blood samples and testing of analytes further indicates the device's role in diagnostic testing.

Therefore, the VACUETTE® tubes with sodium heparin, as described, are clearly intended for in vitro diagnostic use.

Device Names:

Proprietary Name:VACUETTE® Evacuated Blood Collection Tube with Sodium Heparin
Common Name:Blood Collection Tube with Sodium Heparin
Classification Name:Tubes, Vials, Systems, Serum Separators, Blood Collection

Device Description:

VACUETTE® Tubes are used to collect, transport and process blood for testing serum, plasma or whole blood in the clinical laboratory. The VACUETTE® tube with sodium heparin may be used to collect a whole blood/plasma sample. The tube is composed of clear plastic. The cap is made of plastic and rubber. The tube size is 13 x 75 mm. The tube is equipped with a vacuum tube holder to assist in positioning the product when obtaining blood samples. The vacuum tube holder is composed of plastic.

Intended Use:

The Greiner VACUETTE® blood collection tube with sodium heparin additive is an evacuated blood collection device that is used for the collection of venous blood. The VACUETTE® Tube is used to collect, transport and process blood for testing plasma or whole blood in the clinical laboratory.

Substantial Equivalence:

The Greiner VACUETTE® tube with sodium heparin has been found to be substantially equivalent to the Greiner VACUETTE® tube with lithium heparin (K# 960857). Both blood collection tubes have the same intended use and contain the same tube material and stopper material. The tubes have different additives. The predicate device, Greiner VACUETTE® plasma tube with lithium heparin, contains lithium heparin as the anticoaqulant. The Greiner VACUETTE® plasma tube with sodium heparin contains sodium heparin as the anticoagulant.

A study was conducted on blood collected from 40 donors into each type of tube. Test results of 27 analytes commonly tested in plasma showed equivalent performance of the two anticoagulants.
