The device description and performance summary focus on the physical characteristics and functional equivalence to predicate devices, with no mention of AI or ML.
No.
The device is described as a blood access device for dialysis procedures, which is a supportive role and not a therapeutic function itself.
No
The device is described as a "blood access device for dialysis procedures using a constant-site cannulation technique" and operates "on the principles of a blood access device." Its function is to facilitate access for dialysis, not to diagnose a condition.
No
The device description explicitly states it consists of physical components like a hollow needle, flexible tube, mini clamp, and locking connector, indicating it is a hardware device, not software-only.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is clearly stated as a "blood access device for dialysis procedures." This describes a device used to physically access the bloodstream for a medical procedure, not a device used to examine specimens in vitro (outside the body) to provide diagnostic information.
- Device Description: The description details a needle, tubing, clamp, and connector – components of a device used for physical access and fluid transfer, not for analyzing biological samples.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: The document does not mention any components or functions related to:
- Analyzing biological specimens (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
- Detecting or measuring substances in specimens
- Providing diagnostic information about a patient's health status
The NIPRO BioHole™ Needle is a medical device used for a therapeutic procedure (dialysis), not a diagnostic test.

§ 876.5540 Blood access device and accessories.
(a)
Identification. A blood access device and accessories is a device intended to provide access to a patient's blood for hemodialysis or other chronic uses. When used in hemodialysis, it is part of an artificial kidney system for the treatment of patients with renal failure or toxemic conditions and provides access to a patient's blood for hemodialysis. The device includes implanted blood access devices, nonimplanted blood access devices, and accessories for both the implanted and nonimplanted blood access devices.(1) The implanted blood access device is a prescription device and consists of various flexible or rigid tubes, such as catheters, or cannulae, which are surgically implanted in appropriate blood vessels, may come through the skin, and are intended to remain in the body for 30 days or more. This generic type of device includes various catheters, shunts, and connectors specifically designed to provide access to blood. Examples include single and double lumen catheters with cuff(s), fully subcutaneous port-catheter systems, and A-V shunt cannulae (with vessel tips). The implanted blood access device may also contain coatings or additives which may provide additional functionality to the device.
(2) The nonimplanted blood access device consists of various flexible or rigid tubes, such as catheters, cannulae or hollow needles, which are inserted into appropriate blood vessels or a vascular graft prosthesis (§§ 870.3450 and 870.3460), and are intended to remain in the body for less than 30 days. This generic type of device includes fistula needles, the single needle dialysis set (coaxial flow needle), and the single needle dialysis set (alternating flow needle).
(3) Accessories common to either type include the shunt adaptor, cannula clamp, shunt connector, shunt stabilizer, vessel dilator, disconnect forceps, shunt guard, crimp plier, tube plier, crimp ring, joint ring, fistula adaptor, and declotting tray (including contents).
