More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a mechanical IV connection accessory and explicitly states that AI, DNN, or ML were not found in the description.

No.
The device is described as a catheter accessory for fluid and medication transfer, not as treating or mitigating a disease or condition itself.

No
The device is described as a multi-purpose catheter accessory for fluid and medication administration, not for diagnosis.

No

The device description clearly indicates a physical, hardware medical device (a multi-purpose catheter accessory) and does not mention any software component.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use/Indications for Use: The description clearly states its purpose is for "blood sampling, intermittent injection or continuous infusion of fluids or medications" and is a "multi-purpose catheter accessory." These are all related to administering or withdrawing substances from the body, not for testing samples in vitro (outside the body) to diagnose a condition.
  • Device Description: The description reinforces its use as a "closed, needle-free IV connection accessory for sampling, injection or continuous infusion." Again, this points to its function in patient care, not laboratory testing.
  • Lack of IVD-related terms: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, diagnostic testing, or any other activities typically associated with IVDs.

The device is a medical device used in patient care, specifically for intravenous access and fluid management.

The Latex Free Bionector is a multi-purpose, closed, needle-free IV Device Description: connection accessory for sampling, injection or continuous infusion of fluids or drugs.

Latex Free Bionector is a multi-purpose catheter accessory; a closed Intended Use: needleless system permitting blood sampling, intermittent injection or continuous infusion of fluids or medications. Connection is exclusively with the Luer system. Latex Free Bionector is a Male/Female Luer device that displaces a positive bolus during disconnection of the Male Luer devices connected to it.

Technology Characteristics: The Bionector has a disinfectable membrane which closes automatically when the infusion line or the syringe is disconnected. The Bionector is resistant to lipid emulsions, most cytotoxic drugs and antiseptics. The Latex free is substantially equivalent to the predicate device (Bionector K941678) except that it does not contain latex.

Summary of Design Control Activities:

Biocompatibility testing of the Latex Free Bionector demonstrate that it is non-irritant and non-toxic. Performance testing demonstrates that the change in material does not affect device functionality. Risk Assessment was conducted in compliance with ISO 14971.

Only change between the predicate device (Bionector K941678) and the Conclusion: Latex Free Bionector is the change in material. Biocompatibility testing, performance testing and risk assessment demonstrate that the Latex Free Bionector is safe and effective to use, when used in accordance with the supplied instructions for use.

Dear Ms. Smith:

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.
