No.
A therapeutic device is one that treats or cures a disease or condition. This device is used to create a puncture site for the introduction of other vascular access devices and does not provide therapeutic benefit itself.
No
The Merit Safety Introducer Needle is used to create a puncture site for the introduction of vascular access devices and incorporates a safety mechanism. It does not perform any diagnostic function such as detecting, examining, or monitoring a disease or condition.
No
The device description clearly details a physical needle with a safety mechanism, made of stainless steel and other materials, and mentions bench testing related to physical properties and performance. There is no mention of software as a component or the primary function of the device.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to provide a puncture site in blood vessels for the introduction of vascular access devices. This is a procedural device used for accessing the circulatory system, not for performing tests on biological samples in vitro (outside the body).
- Device Description: The description focuses on the physical characteristics of the needle and its safety mechanism for preventing needlestick injuries during a medical procedure. It does not mention any components or functions related to analyzing biological samples.
- Lack of IVD-related information: The document does not mention any aspects typically associated with IVDs, such as:
- Analyzing blood, urine, tissue, or other biological samples.
- Detecting or measuring specific substances (analytes).
- Providing diagnostic information about a patient's health status.
- Reagents, calibrators, or controls.
The Merit Safety Introducer Needle is a medical device used for a procedural purpose (vascular access), not for in vitro diagnostic testing.

Device Description
The Merit Safety Introducer Needle is used for providing a puncture site in blood vessels for the introduction of vascular access devices. It incorporates a safety mechanism/quard to minimize needlestick injuries. The needle consists of a stainless steel one wall cannula and a clear standard female Luer lock hub for immediate bleed-back visualization. The hub of this introducer needle is designed with an ergonomic feel for ease of handling and is offered with a standard hub or a Seldinger shield. The needles are available in 18 gauge and 21 gauge with a usable length of 7 cm. The safety mechanism is color coded for needle gauge identification. The design of the Merit Safety Device Introducer Needle allows clinicians to easily activate the safety mechanism by advancing it to the end of the needle to shield the needle bevel after use. The safety mechanism automatically senses the end of the needle and locks the safety mechanism covering the needle tip which reduces the risk of accidental needlestick injuries by shielding the needle tip. A visual, tactile, and audible confirmation of the locking component over the needle confirms lockout of the safety guard over the needle. The safety mechanism cannot be deactivated and remains protective through disposal into a sharps container. The safety mechanism can be activated over quide wires. The Merit Safety Introducer Needle is a single use device that is supplied sterile and non-pyrogenic for use in the adult population. The technological characteristics of the subject Merit Safety Introducer Needles are substantially equivalent to those of the predicate device. The needle is available in the same gauge sizes 18 and 21, same useable length 7 cm, and same hub styles which include with and without a Seldinger shield. The needle incorporates a clear standard female Luer lock hub for immediate bleed-back visualization and the safety mechanism is color coded for needle gauge identification. The Merit Safety Introducer Needles are similar in clinical use. Comparison to function, materials and use to the predicate SecureLoc™ Predicate Safety Introducer Needles. The Merit Safety Introducer Needles have a safety feature that locks a safety mechanism over the needle tip after the needle is removed from the patient, as does the SecureLoc Safety Introducer Needle predicate device. The Merit Safety Introducer Needle's safety mechanism lockout can be confirmed by visual means, tactile feel and audible means, as can the SecureLoc Safety Introducer Needle predicate device cited in this submission.

Dear Ms. Christensen:
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. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
