More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a physical medical device (dialyzer) and its performance characteristics, with no mention of software, algorithms, or AI/ML terms.

Yes
The device is described as "intended for patients with acute or chronic renal failure when conservative therapy is judged to be inadequate," indicating its use in treating a medical condition.

No
Explanation: The device is a dialyzer used for patients with renal failure to transfer water and solutes from blood, which is a treatment process rather than a diagnostic one.

No

The device description clearly states it is a physical dialyzer, a hardware component used in dialysis, and the performance studies focus on physical characteristics and performance of the membrane and assembly.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device is for "patients with acute or chronic renal failure." This indicates a direct interaction with the patient's blood for treatment (dialysis), not for analyzing a sample of blood or other bodily fluid in vitro (outside the body) to diagnose a condition.
  • Device Description: The description explains how the device transfers water and solutes between blood and dialysate through a membrane. This is the mechanism of dialysis, a treatment, not a diagnostic test.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The document does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing a sample (blood, urine, etc.)
    • Detecting specific analytes (proteins, enzymes, etc.)
    • Providing diagnostic information
    • Using reagents or assays

The Optiflux Ultra dialyzer is a therapeutic device used for hemodialysis, a treatment for kidney failure.

§ 876.5860 High permeability hemodialysis system.

(a)
Identification. A high permeability hemodialysis system is a device intended for use as an artificial kidney system for the treatment of patients with renal failure, fluid overload, or toxemic conditions by performing such therapies as hemodialysis, hemofiltration, hemoconcentration, and hemodiafiltration. Using a hemodialyzer with a semipermeable membrane that is more permeable to water than the semipermeable membrane of the conventional hemodialysis system (§ 876.5820), the high permeability hemodialysis system removes toxins or excess fluid from the patient's blood using the principles of convection (via a high ultrafiltration rate) and/or diffusion (via a concentration gradient in dialysate). During treatment, blood is circulated from the patient through the hemodialyzer's blood compartment, while the dialysate solution flows countercurrent through the dialysate compartment. In this process, toxins and/or fluid are transferred across the membrane from the blood to the dialysate compartment. The hemodialysis delivery machine controls and monitors the parameters related to this processing, including the rate at which blood and dialysate are pumped through the system, and the rate at which fluid is removed from the patient. The high permeability hemodialysis system consists of the following devices:(1) The hemodialyzer consists of a semipermeable membrane with an in vitro ultrafiltration coefficient (K
uf ) greater than 8 milliliters per hour per conventional millimeter of mercury, as measured with bovine or expired human blood, and is used with either an automated ultrafiltration controller or anther method of ultrafiltration control to prevent fluid imbalance.(2) The hemodialysis delivery machine is similar to the extracorporeal blood system and dialysate delivery system of the hemodialysis system and accessories (§ 876.5820), with the addition of an ultrafiltration controller and mechanisms that monitor and/or control such parameters as fluid balance, dialysate composition, and patient treatment parameters (e.g., blood pressure, hematocrit, urea, etc.).
(3) The high permeability hemodialysis system accessories include, but are not limited to, tubing lines and various treatment related monitors (e.g., dialysate pH, blood pressure, hematocrit, and blood recirculation monitors).
(b)
Classification. Class II. The special controls for this device are FDA's:(1) “Use of International Standard ISO 10993 ‘Biological Evaluation of Medical Device—Part I: Evaluation and Testing,’ ”
(2) “Guidance for the Content of 510(k)s for Conventional and High Permeability Hemodialyzers,”
(3) “Guidance for Industry and CDRH Reviewers on the Content of Premarket Notifications for Hemodialysis Delivery Systems,”
(4) “Guidance for the Content of Premarket Notifications for Water Purification Components and Systems for Hemodialysis,” and
