Intended Use
The CLIRANS® E-series Hollow Fiber Dialyzers are indicated for use whenever a patient is found to be in acute or chronic renal failure and hemodialysis is prescribed by a physician. The device should be used only at the direction of a physician who has evaluated all of the pertinent features of the patient's illness. This device is indicated for single use only.
Device Description
The 2.0 m2 CLIRANS® E and EE Series dialyzers that are the subject of this 510(k) are a larger size (larger fiber surface area) of the currently cleared dialyzers (K003425).
More Information

No
The 510(k) summary describes a hollow fiber dialyzer, a physical medical device for hemodialysis. There is no mention of software, algorithms, or any technology related to AI or ML. The performance studies focus on physical characteristics and function of the dialyzer.

Yes
The device is a dialyzer used for patients in renal failure requiring hemodialysis, which directly treats a medical condition.

No

The device is a dialyzer used for treating renal failure, not for diagnosing it. Its function is therapeutic, not diagnostic.

No

The device description clearly identifies the device as a "Hollow Fiber Dialyzer," which is a physical medical device used in hemodialysis, not a software-only product. The performance studies also focus on physical characteristics and performance of the dialyzer.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device is used for hemodialysis in patients with acute or chronic renal failure. This is a treatment applied directly to the patient's blood, not a test performed on a sample outside the body to diagnose a condition.
  • Device Description: The description details a hollow fiber dialyzer, which is a component of a hemodialysis machine used to filter blood.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) to provide diagnostic information. The device's function is therapeutic (filtering blood), not diagnostic.

Therefore, the CLIRANS® E-series Hollow Fiber Dialyzers are a therapeutic device used in the treatment of renal failure, not an IVD.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

The following verification tests were performed to demonstrate the substantial equivalence of the larger surface area device to the devices cleared under K003425 and to the Althin AF-220 dialyzers:

  • In Vitro Clearance .
  • Coefficient of Ultrafiltration, Kuf ●
  • In Vitro kuf ●
  • Pressure Drop in Blood and Dialysate Compartments .
  • Priming Volume ●
  • Structural Intregrity (Fiber Leak Test) .
    None of the data raises any new issues of safety and effectiveness. Additionally, a risk analysis was conducted and there were no new issues of safety and effectiveness.

§ 876.5860 High permeability hemodialysis system.

(a)
Identification. A high permeability hemodialysis system is a device intended for use as an artificial kidney system for the treatment of patients with renal failure, fluid overload, or toxemic conditions by performing such therapies as hemodialysis, hemofiltration, hemoconcentration, and hemodiafiltration. Using a hemodialyzer with a semipermeable membrane that is more permeable to water than the semipermeable membrane of the conventional hemodialysis system (§ 876.5820), the high permeability hemodialysis system removes toxins or excess fluid from the patient's blood using the principles of convection (via a high ultrafiltration rate) and/or diffusion (via a concentration gradient in dialysate). During treatment, blood is circulated from the patient through the hemodialyzer's blood compartment, while the dialysate solution flows countercurrent through the dialysate compartment. In this process, toxins and/or fluid are transferred across the membrane from the blood to the dialysate compartment. The hemodialysis delivery machine controls and monitors the parameters related to this processing, including the rate at which blood and dialysate are pumped through the system, and the rate at which fluid is removed from the patient. The high permeability hemodialysis system consists of the following devices:(1) The hemodialyzer consists of a semipermeable membrane with an in vitro ultrafiltration coefficient (K
uf ) greater than 8 milliliters per hour per conventional millimeter of mercury, as measured with bovine or expired human blood, and is used with either an automated ultrafiltration controller or anther method of ultrafiltration control to prevent fluid imbalance.(2) The hemodialysis delivery machine is similar to the extracorporeal blood system and dialysate delivery system of the hemodialysis system and accessories (§ 876.5820), with the addition of an ultrafiltration controller and mechanisms that monitor and/or control such parameters as fluid balance, dialysate composition, and patient treatment parameters (e.g., blood pressure, hematocrit, urea, etc.).
(3) The high permeability hemodialysis system accessories include, but are not limited to, tubing lines and various treatment related monitors (e.g., dialysate pH, blood pressure, hematocrit, and blood recirculation monitors).
(b)
Classification. Class II. The special controls for this device are FDA's:(1) “Use of International Standard ISO 10993 ‘Biological Evaluation of Medical Device—Part I: Evaluation and Testing,’ ”
(2) “Guidance for the Content of 510(k)s for Conventional and High Permeability Hemodialyzers,”
(3) “Guidance for Industry and CDRH Reviewers on the Content of Premarket Notifications for Hemodialysis Delivery Systems,”
(4) “Guidance for the Content of Premarket Notifications for Water Purification Components and Systems for Hemodialysis,” and
(5) “Guidance for Hemodialyzer Reuse Labeling.”
