Intended Use
The TERUMO® SurGuard 2™ SAFETY NEEDLE device is intended for use in the aspiration and injection of fluids for medical purposes. The Terumo Safety Needle is compatible for use with standard luer slip and luer lock syringes. Additionally, after withdraw of the needle from the body, the attached needle safety shield can be manually activated to cover the needle immediately after use to minimize risk of accidental needlestick.
Device Description
The SurGuard 2™ Safety Needle consists of a hypodermic needle with a hinged safety sheath attached to the connector hub. The safety sheath contains a locking mechanism which is activated when the sheath is manually pressed over the needle immediately after use and just prior to disposal to minimize the possibility of sharps injury. The safety sheath is activated with a one-handed operation by pressing the sheath against a firm surface. The locking mechanism is located at a designated position within the body of the short or long sheath appropriate for the needle size it is to contain. The needle gauge sizes are 18gauge to 25gauge and the needle lengths are 5/8" to 1 ½". The hinge feature allows the user to set the sheath to the desired position for use. For user convenience, when the needle is in the "bevel up" position the sheath is located to the right. The SurGuard 2™ Safety Needle will be individually packaged and sterilized as a safety needle only or as a safety needle with attached Terumo syringe (as cleared under K771205 and K980181).
More Information

No
The device description and performance studies focus on mechanical features and physical testing, with no mention of AI or ML.

No
A therapeutic device is one that treats or prevents a disease or condition. This device is a safety needle used for aspiration and injection, which are diagnostic or procedural rather than therapeutic functions. Its primary safety feature is to minimize accidental needlesticks.

No.
The device is a safety needle intended for aspiration and injection of fluids, designed to minimize needlestick injuries. Its function is to administer or withdraw substances, not to diagnose conditions.

No

The device description clearly details a physical hypodermic needle with a hinged safety sheath and locking mechanism, indicating it is a hardware device, not software only.

Based on the provided text, the TERUMO® SurGuard 2™ SAFETY NEEDLE device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is clearly stated as "aspiration and injection of fluids for medical purposes." This describes a device used on or in the body for therapeutic or diagnostic procedures, not for testing samples outside the body.
  • Device Description: The description focuses on the physical components and function of a hypodermic needle and a safety mechanism for preventing needlesticks. This aligns with a device used for administering or withdrawing substances from a patient.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of:
    • Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.).
    • Detecting or measuring substances in samples.
    • Providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment based on sample analysis.
    • Reagents or other components typically associated with IVD tests.

The device is a medical device used for direct patient care, specifically for injections and aspirations. The safety feature is designed to protect healthcare workers from sharps injuries during these procedures.
