The device description details a purely mechanical safety mechanism for a syringe, with no mention of computational or data-driven components.
No.
The device is a safety hypodermic syringe used for the delivery of medication, not for providing therapy itself. Its primary therapeutic function is related to preventing needlestick injuries rather than directly treating a medical condition.
No
The device is described as a safety hypodermic syringe for delivering medication and preventing needlestick injuries. Its function is to administer medication, not to diagnose a condition.
No
The device description clearly outlines physical components like a barrel, needle, plunger, cap, o-ring, and gasket, and describes mechanical actions for its function and disposal. This indicates a hardware-based medical device, not a software-only one.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is for "intramuscular and subcutaneous injection of medication to patients." This is a direct interaction with the patient's body for therapeutic purposes (delivering medication).
- Device Description: The description details a syringe designed to deliver medication and then safely contain the needle after use. This is a medical device used for administering treatment.
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, tissue) taken from the human body to provide information about a physiological state, health, disease, or congenital abnormality. This device does not perform any such examination of specimens.
The device described is a medical device used for administering medication, specifically designed with a safety feature to prevent needlestick injuries. It falls under the category of devices used for direct patient care and treatment, not for in vitro diagnostic testing.

Device Description
SEZ Safety Syringe consists of 1) a calibrated hollow barrel which contains medication and, after use, confines 2) the needle, 3) a movable plunger which aspirates medication and, after injection, retracts the needle into the barrel, At the distal end of the barrel, there is a female connector(nozzle) for fitting 3) a male connector(hub) to which the needle is firmly attached by bonding material. The needle is securely protected by 5) a cap before use. For sealing purpose, 6) an o-ring, between barrel and hub, and a gasket, between barrel and plunger, are used. The function of the device is to deliver medication and, after injection, to destroy the needle in the barrel to prevent needlestick injury and possible reuse. The injection process is practically the same as that of the conventional, non-safety, syringes, that is, to aspirate medication from a vial and to deliver it to a patient. The disposal process is turn-pull-push operation, each step of which is clearly and unmistakably defined. By turning the knob of the plunger half round clockwise, hub is disassembled from the barrel. Then plunger is pulled backward until it stops, which retracts hub and needle into the barrel. Needle is tilted to one-side pushed by the rod at plunger head. Finally, the plunger is pushed forward to crumble the needle in the barrel. Needle and contaminated fluid are contained in the barrel safely and used syringe can be discarded in the sharps container.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
A clinical investigation was performed in conformity with the requirements specified in Annex X of MDD93/42/EEC, and test for the comparison between SEZ Safety Syringe and the legally marketed predicate device was performed in accordance with "Supplementary Guidance on Premarket Notifications for Medical Devices with Sharps Injury Prevention Features; Guidance for Industry and FDA". The results of the investigation showed that the SEZ Safety Syringe is clinically acceptable.

Dear Mr. Kamm:
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.
