Intended Use
The EnteraLite® Infinity™ Enteral Feeding Pump is a rotary peristaltic pump designed to deliver programmed doses of enteral nutrition solutions at selectable rates.
Device Description
The EnteraLite® Infinity™ Enteral Feeding Pump as referred to as Infinity™ with disposable set is a small, lightweight pump used to dispense liquid nutrients at a user controlled rate to patients. The device may be used in the hospital or at home by bedridden or ambulatory patients. The device is also designed for use with pediatric patients. The device is a software controlled, variable flow rate, peristaltic pump. It operates up to 24 hours (at a nominal flow rate of 125 ml/hr) from internal rechargeable batteries. The batteries are recharged by a wall mounted charger that plugs into a standard 100 to 240 volt alternating current wall socket. The charger is available in various input voltage and plug configurations to accommodate international requirements. The charger converts line voltage to a safe low voltage of 5 volts DC that is supplied from the charger to the pump. A "fuel gauge" type indicator on the pump's LCD display continuously shows the state of battery charge. The pump motor runs at a single speed and is turned on and off at programmed intervals to obtain the desired flow rate. The motor drive circuit is controlled by a microcontroller that allows the motor to pause longer at lower flow rates with correspondingly shorter pauses at higher flow rates. The software embodied within the microcontroller is extensively validated and verified as part of the design process. The pump includes several safety features. An air-in-line sensor rapidly detects whenever nutrient flow is interrupted and alerts the user with both a visual and audible alarm. Two pressure sensors detect occlusions both on the nutrient bag (distal) side and the patient (proximal) side of the pump. The user is alerted to proximal or distal occlusions by both visual and audible alarms. The disposable tubing set consists of a bag, or spike for nutrient bag, DEHP free PVC connecting tubing, an integral cassette with a silicone pumping segment, and an enteral adapter. The set also contains a patented anti-free flow device within the cassette, a version of which is used in the stationary pumps manufactured by ZEVEX, which prevents free flow of fluids if the tubing set is inadvertently or purposely removed from the pump. A backpack (convertible to a waistpack) is available for use under ambulatory conditions. The pump may be operated in any orientation.
More Information

None

No
The description details a software-controlled peristaltic pump with safety features based on sensors and programmed intervals. There is no mention of AI or ML algorithms for decision-making, pattern recognition, or adaptive control.

Yes
The device is designed to deliver programmed doses of enteral nutrition solutions to patients, which is a therapeutic intervention.

No

An enteral feeding pump delivers nutrition. It does not diagnose medical conditions.

No

The device description clearly outlines hardware components such as a rotary peristaltic pump, motor, batteries, charger, sensors (air-in-line, pressure), and disposable tubing sets. While software controls the pump, it is an integral part of a physical medical device.

Based on the provided information, the EnteraLite® Infinity™ Enteral Feeding Pump is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to "deliver programmed doses of enteral nutrition solutions at selectable rates." This is a delivery mechanism for nutrition, not a test performed on a sample taken from the body to diagnose a condition.
  • Device Description: The description focuses on the mechanical and software aspects of a pump designed to move liquid. It describes features related to flow rate control, safety mechanisms (air-in-line, pressure sensors), and power supply. None of these relate to diagnostic testing.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD device, such as:
    • Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Detecting or measuring specific substances or markers in samples
    • Providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening of diseases or conditions
    • Using reagents or assays

The device is clearly designed for the delivery of substances into the body, which falls under the category of a therapeutic or supportive medical device, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

§ 880.5725 Infusion pump.

(a)
Identification. An infusion pump is a device used in a health care facility to pump fluids into a patient in a controlled manner. The device may use a piston pump, a roller pump, or a peristaltic pump and may be powered electrically or mechanically. The device may also operate using a constant force to propel the fluid through a narrow tube which determines the flow rate. The device may include means to detect a fault condition, such as air in, or blockage of, the infusion line and to activate an alarm.(b)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).
