The summary describes a physical filter unit and contains no mention of AI, ML, or related concepts.
No
The device is described as a syringe filter for sterilizing or ultracleaning solutions, which is a preparation step for solutions rather than a direct therapeutic intervention on a patient. Its intended use is in "direct patient care and pharmacy admixture applications," suggesting it's for preparing substances for patient use, not for treating a condition itself.
No
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" states it is "Intended for use as a syringe filter to sterilize or ultraclean low volume solutions," which is a treatment/preparation function, not a diagnostic one.
No
The device description clearly indicates a "Sterilizing Filter Unit," which is a physical hardware component, not software.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to "sterilize or ultraclean low volume solutions in direct patient care and pharmacy admixture applications." This describes a process performed on solutions before they are administered to a patient, not a test performed on a sample taken from a patient to diagnose or monitor a condition.
- Device Description: A "Sterilizing Filter Unit" is a physical device used for filtration, not for analyzing biological samples.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
- Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
- Providing diagnostic or prognostic information
- Using reagents or assays
Therefore, the Millex-GP Sterilizing Filter Unit, as described, falls under the category of a general medical device used in patient care and pharmacy settings, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Trade/Device Name: Millex- GP Sterilizing Filter Unit Regulation Number: 868.5130 Regulation Name: Anesthesia Conduction Filter Regulatory Class: II Product Code: BSN Dated: March 18, 2002 Received: March 20, 2002
Dear Mr. Borrows:
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 (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. 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.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies.

You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.
If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801 and additionally 21 CFR Part 809.10 for in vitro diagnostic devices), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4618. Additionally, for questions on the promotion and advertising of your device, please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4639. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21CFR Part 807.97).
