The description focuses on a mechanical safety mechanism for a syringe and does not mention any computational or data-driven components.
No
The device is a safety syringe intended for fluid injection, designed to prevent sharps injuries and reuse, not to treat a specific medical condition.
No
The Otter Safety Syringe is described as a device for injecting fluids into the body, not for identifying a disease or condition. Its purpose is to deliver substances, and its safety features relate to preventing sharps injuries and reuse, not to diagnosis.
No
The device description clearly describes a physical syringe with a mechanical safety mechanism, not a software application.
Based on the provided information, the Otter Safety Syringe is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is "for injection of fluids into the body". This describes a device used in vivo (within the living body) for administering substances.
- Device Description: The description focuses on the mechanical function of the syringe for injection and needle safety, not on analyzing biological samples in vitro (outside the living body).
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of:
- Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
- Detecting or measuring analytes
- Providing diagnostic information
IVD devices are specifically designed to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. The Otter Safety Syringe's function is purely for administering substances into the body.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Otter Safety Syringe is a sterile, single-use, disposable and non-reusable, manual retractable safety syringe intended for injection of fluids into the body, while reducing the risk of sharps injuries and the potential for syringe reuse.

Device Description
The Otter Safety Syringe is an integrated needle and piston syringe with an innovative anti-needlestick mechanism. The design incorporates the ideal features desired in a safety syringe.

§ 880.5860 Piston syringe.
(a)
Identification. A piston syringe is a device intended for medical purposes that consists of a calibrated hollow barrel and a movable plunger. At one end of the barrel there is a male connector (nozzle) for fitting the female connector (hub) of a hypodermic single lumen needle. The device is used to inject fluids into, or withdraw fluids from, the body.(b)

COMMON NAME: | Safety Syringe |
SUBSTANTIALLY EQUIVALENT TO:
The Otter Safety Syringe is substantially equivalent to the Duopro Safety Syringe and the SecureGard The otter barety Byringe because these devices also retract the needle into the barrel of the syringe and the SEZ Safety Syringe which also crumples the needle. The Nipro hypodermic needle is a predicate for the Otter Syringe as these are the same as the needles used on the Otter Syringe.
DESCRIPTION of the DEVICE:
The Otter Safety Syringe is an integrated needle and piston syringe with an innovative anti-needlestick mechanism. The design incorporates the ideal features desired in a safety syringe. No special techniques meenanism. "The atternechanism. The mechanism allows clear visualization of the injection site at all times. The mechanism clearly shows that the needle has been crushed within the syringe barrel. After standard techniques for injection, the plunger is withdrawn completely into the barrel. A forward compression of the plunger again and the needle is crushed within the puncture-resistant barrel. This renders the needle unusable and safe from accidental needle sticks.
INDICATIONS FOR USE:
The Otter Safety Syringe is a sterile, single-use, disposable and non-reusable, manual retractable safety syringe intended for injection of fluids into the body, while reducing the risk of sharps injuries and the potential for syringe reuse.
SUMMARY of TESTING:
The Otter Safety Syringe has been shown to meet internationally recognized standards for syringe performance and labeling characteristics. In addition, clinical testing in China and simulated use testing in per remails by qualified healthcare professionals proved the Otter Safety Syringe performs reliably and in accordance with the high expectations for safety syringes set by FDA and healthcare organizations.
