The indicator does not respond to dry heat or ethylene oxide.
More Information

Not Found

No
The device is a chemical indicator that changes color based on exposure to steam sterilization conditions, which is a purely chemical and physical process, not involving AI/ML.

No
The device is described as a chemical indicator to monitor sterilization conditions, not a device used to treat or diagnose a medical condition.

No

The device is a chemical indicator used to monitor exposure to steam sterilization conditions. It confirms whether the sterilization process has occurred, rather than diagnosing a disease or condition in a patient.

No

The device description clearly states it is a physical indicator consisting of ink printed on vellum, which changes color. This is a hardware component, not software.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's for monitoring exposure to steam sterilization conditions. This is a quality control measure for sterilization processes, not a diagnostic test performed on biological samples to diagnose a disease or condition.
  • Device Description: The description details a chemical indicator that changes color based on exposure to steam, temperature, and time. This is a physical/chemical reaction, not a biological or biochemical assay typically associated with IVDs.
  • Lack of Biological Sample Interaction: IVDs are designed to be used in vitro (outside the body) to examine biological samples like blood, urine, tissue, etc. This device interacts with the sterilization environment, not a biological sample.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on the indicator's response to different sterilization parameters (time, temperature, steam) and its adherence to sterilization indicator standards (11140-1:2005). This is consistent with a sterilization process indicator, not an IVD.

In summary, this device is a sterilization process indicator, used to verify that sterilization conditions have been met, not a diagnostic tool for medical conditions.

§ 880.2800 Sterilization process indicator.

(a)
Biological sterilization process indicator —(1)Identification. A biological sterilization process indicator is a device intended for use by a health care provider to accompany products being sterilized through a sterilization procedure and to monitor adequacy of sterilization. The device consists of a known number of microorganisms, of known resistance to the mode of sterilization, in or on a carrier and enclosed in a protective package. Subsequent growth or failure of the microorganisms to grow under suitable conditions indicates the adequacy of sterilization.(2)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).(b)
Physical/chemical sterilization process indicator —(1)Identification. A physical/chemical sterilization process indicator is a device intended for use by a health care provider to accompany products being sterilized through a sterilization procedure and to monitor one or more parameters of the sterilization process. The adequacy of the sterilization conditions as measured by these parameters is indicated by a visible change in the device.(2)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).

Conclusion:

The Indistrip Green, Heavy Metal free Steam Sterilization indicator is in accordance with 21 CFR 807 has the same intended use, provides substantially equivalent process color change timing, and color change stability as the Indistrip steam sterilization predicate device 510(k) K875193. The main difference is the indistrip
the Indistrin Groon, Product Cards IND (1933) The main difference is that the Indistrip Green, Product Code INDA00G indicator ink is developed with a metal free organic indicator as compared to the standard lead based steam indicator utilized in the Indistrip 400S steam indicator strip. The two devices are substantially equivalent.
