Intended Use
The Summit Medical Transfusion Filter is intended for the filtration of up to one unit of intra-operative or post-operative salvaged blood, for the reduction of lipid particles, anaphylatoxin C3a, microaggregates and leucocytes. It is indicated for the reinfusion of blood derived from the surgical site or post-operative wound drainage.
Device Description
The Transfusion Filter device consists of a sterile, single wrapped package, containing a filter assembly, with or without an administration set. The administration set is fitted with a drip chamber and roller clamp. The filter unit is connected to a flexible bag containing the blood to be reinfused via a spike port in the bag. The filter is primed by holding the bag inverted, with the filter above the bag, then squeezing the bag to force blood through the filter medium and to the desired level within the drip chamber. The roller clamp is then closed, and the system hung on a drip stand ready for use. The administration line can then be primed and connected to the patient according to clinical practice, and the rate of blood flow to the patient requlated by adjusting the roller clamp.
More Information

No
The description details a physical filter and administration set with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing.

No
The device is described as a "Transfusion Filter" intended for processing salvaged blood for reinfusion, and its function is to filter and prepare blood outside the body, not to directly treat a disease or condition in a therapeutic manner.

No

The device is described as a "Transfusion Filter" intended for the "filtration of ... salvaged blood" for reinfusion, which is a therapeutic function, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description clearly outlines a physical filter assembly and administration set, indicating it is a hardware device, not software-only.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for the filtration and reinfusion of salvaged blood. This is a therapeutic process involving the physical manipulation and administration of blood back into the patient.
  • Device Description: The description details a filter assembly and administration set used to prepare and deliver blood to a patient. This aligns with a medical device used for treatment, not diagnosis.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Elements: There is no mention of analyzing blood or other biological samples to provide information about a patient's health status, disease, or condition. IVDs are designed to perform tests in vitro (outside the body) to aid in diagnosis.

Therefore, the Summit Medical Transfusion Filter is a medical device used for blood processing and administration, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

§ 880.5440 Intravascular administration set.

(a)
Identification. An intravascular administration set is a device used to administer fluids from a container to a patient's vascular system through a needle or catheter inserted into a vein. The device may include the needle or catheter, tubing, a flow regulator, a drip chamber, an infusion line filter, an I.V. set stopcock, fluid delivery tubing, connectors between parts of the set, a side tube with a cap to serve as an injection site, and a hollow spike to penetrate and connect the tubing to an I.V. bag or other infusion fluid container.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The special control for pharmacy compounding systems within this classification is the FDA guidance document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Pharmacy Compounding Systems; Final Guidance for Industry and FDA Reviewers.” Pharmacy compounding systems classified within the intravascular administration set are exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of this part and subject to the limitations in § 880.9.
