Intended Use
The Medisystems Hemodialysis Fistula Needle Securement Device, SiteGuard, is intended for use to secure the fistula needle to the patient's skin. The SiteGuard needle securement device has the following features: a. It allows the needle to be held at a consistent angle during treatment; b. It secures wing/hub to the patient's skin and helps prevent movement and/or dislodgement of the needle during use; and, c. It helps to immobilize the patient's vein or access during cannulation so that it is not necessary for caregivers to hold the vein or access with their fingers.
Device Description
The subject of this 510(k) is a removable, rigid plastic securement device that is attached to the AVF needle set by the care giver. The SiteGuard securement device will be included in the unit packaging pouch with the Medisystems AVF needle set and also will be available for purchase as an individually packaged accessory. Because the tape, the AVF wing, and the patient's skin are flexible, the needle may dislodge or move within the patient's access during treatment due to this inherent flexibility. The securement device adds a rigid structure to increase the ability of the tape to prevent the needle from accidentally dislodging or moving within the patient's vascular access. This accessory also will immobilize the patient's vein during insertion of the cannula so that it is not necessary for caregivers to hold the vein or access with their fingers. The channel along the bottom of the securement device is designed to immobilize the patient's vein during insertion. This feature is especially helpful for patients who have newly created fistulas or implanted grafts because new accesses tend to move during cannulation.

The description focuses on the mechanical function of a rigid plastic device for securing a needle and immobilizing a vein. There is no mention of software, algorithms, data processing, or any terms related to AI/ML.

No
The device is a securement device for fistula needles during hemodialysis, designed to prevent needle dislodgement and immobilize the vein, rather than directly treating a medical condition itself.

No

Explanation: The device is described as a securement device for a fistula needle during hemodialysis and cannulation, designed to prevent dislodgement and immobilize the vein. Its function is purely mechanical support and stabilization, not to diagnose any medical condition or disease.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "removable, rigid plastic securement device," indicating it is a physical hardware component, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to "secure the fistula needle to the patient's skin." This is a physical securement function, not a diagnostic test performed on samples taken from the body.
  • Device Description: The device is described as a "removable, rigid plastic securement device" that attaches to a needle set. Its function is to provide physical support and stability.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Elements: There is no mention of the device being used to analyze biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) or to provide information for the diagnosis of a disease or condition.
  • Anatomical Site: The device interacts with the patient's skin and vein/access, which are external or directly related to the physical access point, not internal biological processes being measured.

IVD devices are specifically designed to perform tests on samples from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device's function is purely mechanical securement.
