Intended Use
The Arion Dialysis Water System is for use in multi-patient hemodialysis. The system consists of pretreatment, reverse osmosis, post-treatment and distribution equipment. The sizing of the system is consisting with the demand of water needed for patients. The water produced will meet the minimum requirements of ANSI/AAMI American National Standard for Water Treatment Equipment for Hemodialysis Applications (RD52:2004 and RD62:2006/A1:2009) and the CMS End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) Program Interpretive Guidance (based on 42 CFR 494) when used as directed. RO and Pretreatment design is based off of feed water quality to meet the stated specifications. This system is intended to be used in hospitals, dialysis centers, and dialysis clinics.
Device Description
The Arion Dialysis Water System is comprised of water purification equipment used to purify water for hemodialysis.
More Information

No
The document describes a water purification system for hemodialysis and does not mention any AI or ML components or functionalities.

No
This device purifies water for hemodialysis machines, it is not directly applied to a patient for therapeutic purposes.

No

This device is a water purification system for hemodialysis, not a diagnostic device. It produces water that meets specific standards for use in hemodialysis.

No

The device description explicitly states the system is comprised of "water purification equipment," indicating it includes hardware components beyond just software.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
  • Device Function: The Arion Dialysis Water System is designed to purify water for use in hemodialysis. It treats water before it is used in the dialysis process, not by analyzing samples from the patient.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's for "use in multi-patient hemodialysis" and that the water produced will meet specific standards for this purpose.
  • Device Description: The description confirms it's "water purification equipment used to purify water for hemodialysis."
  • Lack of IVD Indicators: The text does not mention analyzing biological samples, detecting biomarkers, or providing diagnostic information about a patient's health.

Therefore, the Arion Dialysis Water System is a medical device used in the process of hemodialysis, but it is not an in vitro diagnostic device.

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

A water treatment system must be tested for water quality at the time of install. If the system can't produce water quality specified in ANSI/AAMI RD52:2004, then it can't be used for hemodialysis. Each system will be tested and not be operational until it is shown that the water quality meets AAMI standards. The system will be tested for chemical containments on a quarterly basis.

This system is not required to have Clinical Test performed.

The Arion Dialysis Water System is capable of meeting ANSI/AAMI standards by producing water that has chemical containments below the maximum acceptable levels. The system is designed to conform to ANSI/AAMI equipment and design requlations. If the water does not meet quality, the system will be sanifized and retested. Equipment should be shown to operating properly. If the system can still not meet quality, the system will be decommissioned.

(a)
Identification. A water purification system for hemodialysis is a device that is intended for use with a hemodialysis system and that is intended to remove organic and inorganic substances and microbial contaminants from water used to dilute dialysate concentrate to form dialysate. This generic type of device may include a water softener, sediment filter, carbon filter, and water distillation system.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The device, when it is a water purification subsystem disinfectant, is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 876.9.

Section 4.5: Indications for Use:

The Arion Dialysis Water System is for use in multi-patient hemodialysis. The system consists of pretreatment, reverse osmosis, post-treatment and distribution equipment. The sizing of the system is consisting with the demand of water needed for patients. The water produced will meet the minimum requirements of ANSI/AAMI American National Standard for Water Treatment Equipment for Hemodialysis Applications (RD52:2004 and RD62:2006/A1:2009) and the CMS End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) Program Interpretive Guidance (based on 42 CFR 494) when used as directed. RO and Pretreatment design is based off of feed water quality to meet the stated specifications. This system is intended to be used in hospitals, dialysis centers, and dialysis clinics.

Section 4.6: Comparison to Predicate Device:

The Arion Dialysis Water System is substantially equivalent to many marketed devices that are used in Hemodialysis. Table 4.6.1 compares systems for the companies of Arion Water, Inc., Performance Water Systems, LCC, and Biolab Equipment Canada Limited.

The system listed use RO as a primary purification method. The system design must be similar to the Arion Dialysis Water System due to the requlations of ANSI/AAMI RD62:2006. The standard states certain requirements for the design of water treatment system for Hemodialysis.

The Arion Dialysis Water System provides safe mechanical and electrical operations. The electrical components are enclosed with in a NEMA enclosure in compliance with building and electrical codes. The Arion Water Dialysis system has no exposed moving parts.

Chemicals being used in water treatment are often monitored with pH probes and other sensors. The Arion Dialysis Water System has no pH probe because it does not use chemicals. The only time the system would need chemicals in during sanitization. When sanitization is in progress test strips and/or metering devices are used to ensure correct amounts of chemicals are used. All chemicals used in the sanitization of the dialysis system are certified by the EPA or conform to AAMI standards.
