No
The summary describes a mechanical syringe used for a physical technique (Loss of Resistance) and makes no mention of AI, ML, or any computational processing.
No
The device is used to verify needle tip placement during an epidural procedure, not for direct therapeutic intervention. Its function is diagnostic/guidance.
Yes
The device is described as verifying "needle tip placement is in the epidural space by use of the Loss of Resistance Technique," which is a diagnostic function to determine the location of the needle.
No
The device description clearly states it is a physical syringe with a barrel, plunger, and bung, which are hardware components.
Based on the provided information, the SPECTRA-LOR, Loss of Resistance Syringe is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's for verifying needle tip placement in the epidural space using the Loss of Resistance Technique. This is a clinical procedure performed on a patient's body, not a test performed on a sample taken from the body (which is the definition of an in vitro diagnostic).
- Device Description: The description details a syringe-like device used for a physical technique, not for analyzing biological samples.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, reagents, or any other elements typically associated with in vitro diagnostics.
Therefore, the SPECTRA-LOR, Loss of Resistance Syringe is a medical device used in a clinical setting, but it does not fit the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The SPECTRA-LOR, Loss of Resistance Syringe is intended for use, in conjunction with an epidural needle, to verify the needle tip placement is in the epidural space by use of the Loss of Resistance Technique as detailed in medical textbooks and medical journal articles. The LOR Syringe is not intended for injection or aspiration.

Device Description
The construction of the SPECTRA-LOR, Loss of Resistance Syringe is similar to that of a standard piston syringe; it has a barrel, a plunger and a bung. The barrel has graduations which correspond to a capacity of 10 ml and is available in a Luer Lock or Luer Slip tip.

§ 880.5860 Piston syringe.
(a)
Identification. A piston syringe is a device intended for medical purposes that consists of a calibrated hollow barrel and a movable plunger. At one end of the barrel there is a male connector (nozzle) for fitting the female connector (hub) of a hypodermic single lumen needle. The device is used to inject fluids into, or withdraw fluids from, the body.(b)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).

Dear Mr. Henderson:
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.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.
If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801), please contact the Center for Devices and Radiological Health's (CDRH's) Office of Compliance at (240) 276-0115.
