No
The device description and performance studies focus on the mechanical properties and function of a pen needle for insulin injection, with no mention of AI or ML.

No
The device is a pen needle, an accessory for a pen injector, used to deliver insulin. It facilitates a therapeutic action (insulin injection) but doesn't perform the therapy itself.

No
Explanation: The device, a pen needle, is designed for the injection of insulin, which is a treatment, not a diagnostic procedure. It does not gather information about a patient's health status.

No

The device description clearly states it is a physical pen needle consisting of a needle, hub, and shield assembly, and describes bench tests related to its physical performance.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for the subcutaneous injection of insulin. This is a therapeutic action, delivering a substance into the body.
  • Device Description: The description details a needle, hub, and shield assembly designed for injection. This is a delivery device.
  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.

This device is clearly designed for delivering a substance into the body, not for analyzing samples from the body.

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

Bench tests relating to the performance of the pen needle were conducted. The tests performed included needle pull-out force, hub pull-off forces, needle angularity, needle break-off testing and dose accuracy. The results demonstrate that the BD Ultra-Fine III 31G Pen Needles perform equivalent to the predicate device and is safe and effective when used as intended.

510K Summary of Safety and Effectiveness (Continued)

6. Technological Characteristics:

The B-D ULTRA-FINE ® III 31G Pen Needle and the predicate device have the identical technological characteristics and perform equivalently.

The only difference between the ULTRA-FINE ® III 31G and the predicate device is the inner bore diameter.

7. Performance:

Bench tests relating to the performance of the pen needle were conducted. The tests performed included needle pull-out force, hub pull-off forces, needle angularity, needle break-off testing and dose accuracy. The results demonstrate that the BD Ultra-Fine III 31G Pen Needles perform equivalent to the predicate device and is safe and effective when used as intended.

The term "substantial equivalence" as used in this 510(k) notification is limited to the definition of substantial equivalence found in the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, as amended and as applied under 21 CFR 807, Subpart E, under which a device can be marketed without pre-approval or classification. A determination of substantial equivalency under this notification is not intended to have any bearing whatsoever on the resolution of patent infringement suits or any other patent matters. No statements related to, or in support of substantial equivalence herein shall be construed as an admission against interest under the US patent Laws or their application by the courts.

Dear Mr. Schalago:

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.
