Intended Use
The Agento™ I.C.® Silver-Coated Endotracheal Tube intended use is for airway management by oral or nasal intubation of the trachea for anesthesia and in cases where duration of intubation is expected to be 24 hours or longer, or may be unpredictable. Agento™ I.C.® Silver-Coated Endotracheal Tube has been shown to reduce the incidence of microbiologically confirmed Ventilator Associated Pneumonia (VAP) in patients intubated for 24 hours or longer from an incidence of 7.5% in patients intubated with uncoated ET tubes to an incidence of 4.8% in patients intubated with the Bard Silver-Coated ET tubes (reduction of 36%) and to delay the time to onset of microbiologically confirmed VAP. For Adults Only.
Device Description
The Bard Silver-Coated Endotracheal Tube is a sterile bifurcated (two lumen) polyvinyl chloride tube with a polyvinyl chloride cuff. The tube design incorporates a Magill curve and features a radiopaque line to assist radiographic visualization. An indicator (ORAL: NASAL) is provided on standard length tubes to mark the tracheal tube length in centimeters. This indicator and all other device features listed above were tested in accordance with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 5361, Anesthetic and Respiratory Equipment -Tracheal Tubes and Connectors. The Bard Silver-coated Endotracheal Tube is available with a hooded Murphy tip, a intermediate high volume, low pressure cuff and self-sealing valve with attached pilot balloon. The Bard Silver-coated Endotracheal Tube is available in sizes of 6.0, 6.5, 7.0, 7.5, 8.0, 8.5, 9.0, and 10.0 mm ID. The Bard Silver-coated Endotracheal Tube is coated on the outer endotracheal tube surface, including the cuff surface, and on the interior surface of the airway lumen with a proprietary hydrophilic silver coating. Neither the inside of the cuff nor the inside of the inflation lumen is coated.
More Information

Not Found

No
The description focuses on the physical characteristics and silver coating of the endotracheal tube, with no mention of AI or ML technology. The performance data relates to the reduction of VAP incidence, not the output of an AI/ML algorithm.

Yes
The device is intended to reduce the incidence of Ventilator Associated Pneumonia (VAP), which is a therapeutic effect.

No

The device is an endotracheal tube designed for airway management and to reduce the incidence of ventilator-associated pneumonia, not to diagnose a condition.

No

The device description clearly details a physical, bifurcated polyvinyl chloride tube with a cuff, radiopaque line, and a silver coating. This is a hardware device, not software.

Based on the provided information, the Agento™ I.C.® Silver-Coated Endotracheal Tube is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: IVD devices are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) taken from the human body to provide information about a person's health. This information is used for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Function: The Agento™ I.C.® Silver-Coated Endotracheal Tube is a medical device used for airway management by being inserted into the trachea. Its primary function is to maintain an open airway and facilitate ventilation. The silver coating is intended to reduce the incidence of VAP, which is a clinical outcome related to the device's use in the body, not an analysis of a specimen.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes a procedure performed directly on the patient (intubation) for airway management and reducing VAP. It does not involve the analysis of any in vitro specimens.

Therefore, the device is a therapeutic and airway management device, not an IVD.

Dear Mr. Rimer:

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.
