Intended Use
This device is intended for injection or aspiration of fluids utilizing a luer slip syringe. The needle protection device covers the needle after use to help prevent needle sticks. The Needle-Pro® device is not designed for use with a luer lock syringe.
Device Description
This device is intended for injection or aspiration of fluids utilizing a luer slip syringe. The needle protection device is an integral component of the device as it comes pre-attached to the needle. Once the needle/needle protection device is attached to a syringe, the collar hoop hinders removal of the needle protection device from the needle. The Needle-Pro® sheath may be adjusted relative to the needle bevel by swiveling the orange arm to the desired position. After the procedure is completed, the needle is pressed into the sheath using a onehanded technique. As the needle enters the protective sheath, the needle protection device engages and the needle is contained within the sheath. The device should be immediately be disposed into a sharps container. This device is not designed for use with a luer lock syringe. The device is supplied with 25G, 26G, 27G needles both with and without a syringe.

No
The description focuses on mechanical features for needle protection and fluid handling, with no mention of AI/ML terms or functionalities.

No
The device is described as an injection/aspiration fluid delivery system with a needle protection feature, which is a common medical accessory rather than a device designed to directly treat a medical condition or disease.

No

This device is designed for fluid injection or aspiration and needle protection, not for diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description clearly describes a physical medical device (needle protection device, syringe, needle) and its mechanical function. There is no mention of software components.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for "injection or aspiration of fluids utilizing a luer slip syringe." This describes a procedure performed on a patient, not a test performed on a sample in vitro (outside the body).
  • Device Description: The description focuses on the physical mechanism of the needle and its safety features for use in injecting or aspirating fluids. It does not mention any components or processes related to analyzing biological samples.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing samples, detecting analytes, providing diagnostic information, or any other typical characteristics of an IVD device.

The device is a medical device designed for administering or withdrawing fluids from a patient, with a safety feature to prevent needlesticks.
