Intended Use
KimVent* Microcuff* Subglottic Suctioning Endotracheal Tubes are indicated for airway management by oral intubation of the trachea and for removal of secretions that accumulate in the subglottic space.
Device Description
KimVent* Microcuff* Subglottic Suctioning Endotracheal Tubes are available in adult sizes 7.0, 7.5, 8.0, 8.5, and 9.0mm with a Murphy Eye. They include a separate lumen with a dorsal opening above the cuff to provide access to the subglottic space. The subglottic space is accessed via a normally open suction valve that includes a one-way port for rinsing the subglottic space with sterile saline (0.9% Sodium Chloride solution) or administering an air bolus to assist in maintaining a patent suction lumen patency. These devices are sold as disposable, sterile, single-use, devices.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a mechanical device for airway management and secretion removal, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities.

Yes.
The device is used for airway management and removal of secretions, which are therapeutic interventions.

No

The device is an endotracheal tube designed for airway management and secretion removal, which are therapeutic and management functions, not diagnostic ones.

No

The device description clearly details a physical, disposable endotracheal tube with a separate lumen and suction valve, indicating it is a hardware device, not software-only.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for airway management and removal of secretions from the subglottic space. This is a direct intervention on the patient's body for therapeutic and management purposes.
  • Device Description: The device is an endotracheal tube with a suctioning mechanism. This is a physical device used within the body.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Purpose: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes.

IVD devices are used to perform tests on samples (like blood, urine, tissue) taken from the body to diagnose or monitor a condition. This device is used in the body for treatment and management.

Intended Use:

KimVent* Microcuff* Subglottic Suctioning Endotracheal Tubes are indicated for airway management by oral intubation of the trachea and for removal of secretions that accumulate in the subglottic space.

Technological Characteristics Both the Kimberly-Clark* KimVent* Microcuff* Subglottic Suctioning Endotracheal Tubes and the predicate TaperGuard Evac™ Endotracheal Tubes have the same basic fundamental technological characteristics. Both are polyvinylchloride tubes with inflatable cuffs and include a suction lumen. The Kimberly-Clark* KimVent* Microcuff* Subglottic Suctioning Endotracheal Tube incorporates a barrel-shaped polyurethane inflatable cuff while the predicate TaperGuard Evac™ Endotracheal Tubes contain a tapered PVC cuff. The Kimberly-Clark* KimVent* Microcuff* Subglottic Suctioning Endotracheal Tubes incorporate a suction valve with integrated rinse port to aid in removing secretions that accumulate in the subglottic space while the predicate TaperGuard Evac™ Endotracheal Tubes contain a single port for access to the subglottic space.

Dear Ms. Johnson:

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.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls.
