No
The document explicitly states "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML: Not Found" and the device description and testing focus on mechanical and fluid dynamics, not data-driven algorithms.

Yes
The device is described as being for "patient therapy requiring repeated vascular access for infusion therapy, power injected diagnostic techniques using contrast media, and blood infusion/withdrawal." The term "patient therapy" explicitly indicates a therapeutic use.

No
The device is described for use in patient therapy requiring repeated vascular access and power injected diagnostic techniques using contrast media, as well as blood infusion/withdrawal. While it facilitates diagnostic techniques, it is a vascular access system and not inherently a diagnostic device itself. The performance studies also focus on its reliability as an access system under specific flow and pressure conditions.

No

The device description and performance studies clearly indicate a physical medical device (Vascular Access System Power Injectable Port) that undergoes hardware testing (Dynamic Failure Flow Test, Instantaneous Burst Test, etc.). There is no mention of software as the primary component or function.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes a device used for patient therapy requiring repeated vascular access for infusion, power injection of contrast media, and blood infusion/withdrawal. This is a direct interaction with the patient's body for treatment and diagnostic imaging, not for testing samples in vitro (outside the body).
  • Device Description: The description focuses on the physical device used for vascular access.
  • Lack of IVD Indicators: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) or providing diagnostic information based on such analysis. The diagnostic aspect mentioned is related to using contrast media for imaging, which is a procedure performed in vivo (within the body).

IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device's function is to provide access to the vascular system for administering substances and withdrawing blood, which is a therapeutic and procedural function, not an in vitro diagnostic one.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

The Cook Vascular, Inc. Vital-Port Vascular Access System Power Injectable Port was subjected to the flowing tests to assure reliable design and performance under the specified testing parameters. These tests were comprised of:

  • Dynamic Failure Flow Test 1.
    1. Instantaneous Burst Test
  • ýt Static Burst Test
    1. Puncture Life Test
    1. Cyclic Test
    1. Life Cycle Power Injection Test
      The results of these tests provide reasonable assurance that the device has been designed and tested to assure conformance to the requirements for its use as a Vital-Port Vascular Access System Power Injectable Port.

Based on empirical evidence, Cook Vascular, Inc. recommends for power injection of 9000 series models of Vital-Ports® with a maximum limit of 5mL/sec and 325psi. We reasonably assume that our testing provides "worst-case" scenarios for contrast media viscosity, catheter length and septum access. Our tested catheter length is greater than 70cm, while we assume the implanted length to be within a 20cm - 50cm range. Furthermore, our tested contrast media viscosity was at 11.8cP, while suggested usage for vendor supplied contrast media calls for pre-heating of the media prior to injection, this pre-heating could reduce viscosity by nearly half as some heated viscous contrast media could be as low as 4.9cP. Applying these expected clinical parameters would reduce overall system pressure and thereby increase the operational safety factor. Lastly, sufficient warnings against over pressurization of the silicone catheter systems are highly recommended as empirical evidence suggests that a catheter could fail prior to the injection machine depressurizing the system.

§ 880.5965 Subcutaneous, implanted, intravascular infusion port and catheter.

(a)
Identification. A subcutaneous, implanted, intravascular infusion port and catheter is a device that consists of a subcutaneous, implanted reservoir that connects to a long-term intravascular catheter. The device allows for repeated access to the vascular system for the infusion of fluids and medications and the sampling of blood. The device consists of a portal body with a resealable septum and outlet made of metal, plastic, or combination of these materials and a long-term intravascular catheter is either preattached to the port or attached to the port at the time of device placement. The device is available in various profiles and sizes and can be of a single or multiple lumen design.(b)

Predicate Devices:

The Cook Vascular, Inc. Vital-Port Vascular Access System Power Injectable Port Set is similar in terms of intended use, and exactly the same as materials of construction and technology characteristics to the predicate devices that have been found substantially equivalent.

Device Description:

The proposed device is exactly the same as the predicate devices,

Substantial Equivalence:

This device will be manufactured to specified process controls and a Quality Assurance program. This device will undergo packaging exactly the same as the devices currently manufactured by Cook Vascular. This device will undergo sterilization exactly the same as the devices currently marketed and distributed. Being the same as the predicate devices in respect to indication for use, materials and physical construction, this device meets the requirements for section 510(k) substantial equivalence. It is to be noted that this device has not changed in design, materials and/or methods.

It has come to Cook Vascular's attention that ports have been and are being used for power injection studies. Cook Vascular currently makes no claims and provides no instruction for use for this procedure. The purpose for this 510(k) is to establish a safe and effective way to conduct a power injection study through ports which are deemed appropriate for this type of use.

When used for power injection, the port is accessed, using qualified power injectable infusion sets, in the standard fashion, per the standard instructions. The supplemental instructions will then be used for power injection. Power injection involves the luse of a power syringe to inject contrast media in order to complete a study.

Dear Mr. Ferguson:

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.
