Intended Use
The portable Crono infusion devices have been designed for use in subcutaneous and intravenous infusion of prescribed liquid medicines.
Device Description
Canè s.r.l., a company that specializes in the production of ambulatory pumps, has now produced a new generation of compact pumps: Crono F, a perfect combination of high technology and innovative design. The infusion pumps which use normal commercial syringes are inevitably cumbersome and thus difficult to use in everyday life. This provokes in the patients a refuse of the therapy. A special syringe, an integral part of the Crono F allows an efficient reduction of the pump size. In this way, the patients can freely carry out the therapy at any time of the day, even during their everyday life. Patients who have been following a liquid medicine therapy for a long time, often experience difficulties in absorbing the drug subcutaneously; this may lead to a catheter occlusion with consequent interruption of the infusion. Crono F has a particular mechanism which pushes directly the rubber syringe piston: so it is possible to reach a thrust force up to 3 times higher with respect to conventional pumps. In case of catheter occlusion, an innovative infusion control system makes it possible to proceed with the infusion automatically and, after the occlusion is eliminated, to complete it. For a better absorption of the drug, Crono F makes the infusion up to 3 times more fractionated with respect to traditional pumps (22 µl per impulse, using a 10/20 ml syringe). Crono F is fitted with a liquid crystal display which shows the time it takes to complete the delivery and battery charge status.

No
The summary describes a mechanical infusion pump with features focused on size reduction, increased thrust force, and fractionated delivery. There is no mention of AI or ML algorithms for decision-making, data analysis, or adaptive control. The "innovative infusion control system" appears to be a mechanical or basic electronic feedback mechanism for occlusion detection and resolution, not an AI/ML system.

Yes
The device is used for "subcutaneous and intravenous infusion of prescribed liquid medicines," which directly contributes to a therapeutic effect on the patient.

No

The device is an infusion pump designed for delivering prescribed liquid medicines, which is a therapeutic function, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description explicitly details a physical pump with mechanical components (syringe, piston, mechanism for thrust force, display) and mentions bench, EMC, and user testing, indicating hardware validation.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is "subcutaneous and intravenous infusion of prescribed liquid medicines." This describes a device used to deliver medication into the body, not to perform tests on samples from the body.
  • Device Description: The description focuses on the mechanical aspects of the pump, its ability to deliver medication, and features related to infusion control and patient comfort. There is no mention of analyzing biological samples or providing diagnostic information.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The document does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Detecting or measuring specific substances in samples
    • Providing diagnostic, prognostic, or screening information
    • Using reagents or assays

The device is clearly designed for therapeutic delivery of medication, which falls under a different regulatory category than IVDs.

§ 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).
