0.9% Sodium Chloride Flush Syringes are intended for use in flushing compatible intravenous administration sets and indwelling intravenous access devices. Use according to the recommendations of the manufacturer for the appropriate device.
Device Description
The Predicate Device, 510(k) Number: K111034, cleared on July14, 2011 consists of a plastic syringe filled with 0.9% Sodium Chloride Solution that is terminally sterilized. The predicate syringe is fluid path sterile with a Sterility Assurance Level (SAL) of 10⁻⁶. This is a single use device packaged in a dust cover. The Modified Device, the subject of this 510 (k), consists of a plastic syringe filled with 0.9% Sodium Chloride Solution that is terminally sterilized. The modified device has a sterile exterior in addition to the sterility of the fluid, fluid path and the exterior of the device. The package that maintains the sterility of the modified device has a Sterility Assurance Level (SAL) is 10⁻⁶. This is a single use device. Technical Data: The technical characteristics of the syringe for the modified device do not differ from those of the currently marketed predicate device. These syringes have the same design, the same functional characteristics, and have the same intended use. The proposed modification involves a change in packaging from the dust cover with a sterile barrier package for use in a sterile field. All other aspects of the syringe design remain the same.

No
The device is a simple saline flush syringe with a change in packaging for sterile field use. There is no mention of any software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI/ML.

No
The device is a flush syringe intended for clearing intravenous lines, not for treating a disease or condition.

No

Explanation: The device is described as a "0.9% Sodium Chloride Flush Syringe" intended for flushing intravenous lines. Its function is to clear or maintain patency of IV administration sets and indwelling intravenous access devices, not to diagnose a condition or disease.

No

The device is a physical syringe filled with a solution, not a software program.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device is for "flushing compatible intravenous administration sets and indwelling intravenous access devices." This is a direct therapeutic or procedural use, not a diagnostic one.
  • Device Description: The description focuses on the physical components (syringe, sodium chloride solution) and sterility, which are typical for medical devices used for administration or flushing.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Elements: There is no mention of the device being used to analyze samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) or to provide information for the diagnosis of a disease or condition.
  • Focus on Flushing: The core function described is flushing, which is a mechanical action to clear lines or devices.

IVD devices are specifically designed to be used in vitro (outside the body) to examine specimens from the human body to provide information for diagnostic purposes. This device does not fit that description.

Device Description

The Predicate Device, 510(k) Number: K111034, cleared on July14, 2011 consists of a plastic syringe filled with 0.9% Sodium Chloride Solution that is terminally sterilized. The predicate syringe is fluid path sterile with a Sterility Assurance Level (SAL) of 10-6. This is a single use device packaged in a dust cover.

The Modified Device, the subject of this 510(k), consists of a plastic syringe filled with 0.9% Sodium Chloride Solution that is terminally sterilized. The modified device has a sterile outer wrap that maintains the sterility of the fluid, fluid path and the exterior of the device. The package that maintains the sterility of the package is not open and aseptic techniques are used. The Sterility Assurance Level (SAL) is 10-6. This is a single use device.

Technical Data: The technical characteristics of the syringe for the modified device do not differ from those of the currently marketed predicate device. These syringes have the same design, the same volume, materials, and have the same intended use. The proposed modification involves a change in packaging to a sterile barrier for use in a sterile field. All other aspects of the syringe design remain the same.

Dear Ms. Thomison:

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. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
