Not Found

No
The device is a cold storage solution, a chemical formulation, and the description focuses on its composition and physical properties. There is no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate AI/ML.

No.
The device is a cold storage solution used for the flushing and hypothermic storage of organs prior to transplantation, which is a supportive role in the medical procedure rather than directly treating a disease or condition in a patient.

No
The device is a cold storage solution intended for preserving organs for transplantation, not for diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "solution," which is a liquid substance, not software. The performance studies also focus on the dispensing bag and chemical properties, further indicating a physical product.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for the flushing and hypothermic storage of organs outside the body in preparation for transplantation. This is a process performed on the organ itself, not on a sample taken from a patient to diagnose a condition or monitor a physiological state.
  • Device Description: The description details a solution used for organ preservation, not a reagent or instrument used to analyze biological samples.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), providing diagnostic information, or being used in a laboratory setting for testing purposes.

IVD devices are specifically designed to be used in vitro (outside the body) to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. The BEL-GEN® Cold Storage Solution does not fit this description.

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

Technological difference in the dispensing bag has been evaluated through biocompatibility, stability and chemical identity testing. Results of these evaluations did not raise any new questions of safety or effectiveness when compared to the predicate device and therefore the BEL-GEN Solution is substantially equivalent to the SPS-1 predicate.

§ 876.5880 Isolated kidney perfusion and transport system and accessories.

(a)
Identification. An isolated kidney perfusion and transport system and accessories is a device that is used to support a donated or a cadaver kidney and to maintain the organ in a near-normal physiologic state until it is transplanted into a recipient patient. This generic type of device may include tubing, catheters, connectors, an ice storage or freezing container with or without bag or preservatives, pulsatile or nonpulsatile hypothermic isolated organ perfusion apparatus with or without oxygenator, and disposable perfusion set.(b)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).

Device Description

The BEL-GEN® Cold Storage Solution (BEL-GEN Solution) is clear to light yellow, sterile and pyrogen-free solution. BEL-GEN Solution has an approximate osmolality of 320 mOsm/kg, a sodium concentration of 29 mmol/L, a potassium concentration of 125 mmol/L and a pH of 7.4 at 20°C.

Intended Use / Indications

The BEL-GEN® Cold Storage Solution is intended for the flushing and the hypothermic storage of kidney, liver and pancreas organs at the time of organ removal from the donor in preparation for storage, transportation and eventual transplantation into a recipient.

Substantial Equivalence and Summary of Studies

The BEL-GEN Cold Storage Solution device is substantially equivalent to the SPS-1 Static Preservation Solution. The BEL-GEN and SPS-1 solutions have an identical intended use, chemical composition and principle of operation. Both the subject and predicate device are sterile, non-pyrogenic, transparent solutions dispensed from a bag. Technological difference in the dispensing bag has been evaluated through biocompatibility, stability and chemical identity testing. Results of these evaluations did not raise any new questions of safety or effectiveness when compared to the predicate device and therefore the BEL-GEN Solution is substantially equivalent to the SPS-1 predicate.

Dear Mr. Warren:

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.
