Intended Use
The EZ-IO is for emergency vascular access when standard venous access is not possible. Humeral head IO access is indicated when rapid fluid or pharmacological resuscitation is required and intravenous access is not possible.
Device Description
The EZ-IO (which looks similar to a cordless drill) consists of a reusable battery powered driver connected to a single use disposable intraosseous (IO) needle assembly. Upon activation, the drill penetrates through the cortex of the bone to a desired depth within the bone marrow. The driver then separates from the hub of the IO needle assembly, leaving the cannula securely seated in the bone. The trocar/stylet containing the drill bit is then removed. A standard Luer lock (part of the needle assembly) then permits attachment of standard syringes and IV lines for administration of drugs and fluids via the humeral head.
More Information

No
The description focuses on mechanical operation and does not mention any AI/ML components or functions.

No
The device is used to establish vascular access for administration of drugs and fluids, which are the therapeutic agents, but the device itself does not provide therapy.

No
The provided text describes a device used for obtaining vascular access and administering fluids/drugs, not for diagnosing a condition or disease.

No

The device description clearly states it consists of a reusable battery-powered driver and a single-use disposable intraosseous needle assembly, indicating it is a hardware device with mechanical components.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This testing is done outside of the body (in vitro).
  • EZ-IO Function: The EZ-IO is a device used to gain direct access to the bone marrow within the body (in vivo) for the administration of fluids and medications. It does not analyze or test any bodily specimens.

The description clearly states its purpose is for "emergency vascular access" and "administration of drugs and fluids via the humeral head," which are actions performed directly on the patient's body.

Intended Use / Indications for Use

The EZ-IO is for emergency vascular access when standard venous access is not possible. Humeral head IO access is indicated when rapid fluid or pharmacological resuscitation is required and intravenous access is not possible.

Dear Ms. Holland:

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.
