Intended Use
- Infusion of crystalloid, colloid, or blood product, including packed red blood cells, as volume replacement for patients suffering from blood loss due to trauma or surgery. - Infusion of warmed fluid to rewarm patients after surgery or for hypothermia. - Infusion of warmed fluid for irrigation in urology procedures.
Device Description
The Belmont® Rapid Infuser, RI2, (same as the existing Rapid Infuser) combines advanced microprocessor technology with an efficient mechanical system to provide a high speed, simple and safe system for rapid infusion of warmed fluid. . The Rapid Infuser infuses blood, replacement IV fluids or irrigation fluids warmed to physiologic temperature at user-set rates from 10 to 1000 milliliters per minute (ml/min). A low infusion rate at 2.5 ml/min (150 ml/hr) is also available without heating. The system monitors temperature, line pressure, and air in the fluid path to ensure safe operation and alarms at all unsafe conditions. A hardware override circuit prevents unsafe operation in case of system computer failure. A touch screen displays flow rate, total fluid infused, temperature, line pressure, alarm and status messages and proper procedures to proceed safely after an alarm situation. A battery backup allows for mobile transport of the patient and system. During battery operation, fluid warming is disabled while pump operation and safety monitoring remain active.
More Information

No
The description focuses on microprocessor control, safety monitoring, and mechanical systems, with no mention of AI or ML algorithms.

Yes
The device is described as an "Infuser" for "volume replacement" and "rewarming patients," indicating direct medical intervention for treatment purposes.

No.

The device is designed for the rapid infusion of warmed fluids (crystalloids, colloids, blood products) for volume replacement, rewarming, or irrigation. It monitors temperature, line pressure, and air, but these are for safe operation of the infusion, not for diagnosing a medical condition. Its function is therapeutic/supportive rather than diagnostic.

No

The device description explicitly details a mechanical system, hardware components (pump, heater, sensors, touch screen), and battery backup, indicating it is a physical medical device with integrated software, not a software-only device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes the device's function as infusing fluids (crystalloid, colloid, blood products, irrigation fluids) into a patient for volume replacement, rewarming, or irrigation. This is a direct therapeutic or procedural intervention on the patient's body.
  • Device Description: The description focuses on the mechanical and electronic aspects of pumping and warming fluids, monitoring pressure and air, and displaying information. It does not mention any analysis of biological samples or substances outside of the body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The document does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Detecting or measuring specific analytes
    • Providing diagnostic information about a patient's condition
    • Using reagents or test kits

The device is designed to deliver fluids to the patient, not to analyze samples from the patient. Therefore, it falls under the category of a therapeutic or procedural medical device, not an IVD.

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

In order to verify performance of the Belmont® . Rapid Infuser, R12, in support of substantial equivalence, the following tests were carried out:

  • a. The ability of the system to pump fluids accurately over the full range of flow rate and operating conditions including different input fluid temperatures, different back pressure levels, change in ambient temperature, and changes in fluid viscosity including that of crystalloid solution and packed red blood cells.
  • b. The ability of the system to warm cold fluids to physiological temperature over the full range of flow rate and operating conditions.
  • c. The ability of the system to detect and alarm at unsafe or ineffective operating conditions including over temperature, the unsafe high line pressure condition, out of fluid, air in the line and at any of several internal fault conditions.
  • d. We performed risk assessment regarding the keypad, i.e., key stick, key bounce/failure, operator error by pressing the wrong key, unintentional activation of the keypad, and fluid spillage on the keypad. We performed the verification and validation tests to ensure that these risks were mitigated and method of controls were implemented correctly.
  • e. We generated a software life cycle in according to the IEC 62304. We validated each algorithm for each function element in the software specification using an approved procedure. We also performed extensive testing for the entire system with software in place to test both the hardware and software functions to ensure that all system requirements are met.

§ 880.5725 Infusion pump.

(a)
Identification. An infusion pump is a device used in a health care facility to pump fluids into a patient in a controlled manner. The device may use a piston pump, a roller pump, or a peristaltic pump and may be powered electrically or mechanically. The device may also operate using a constant force to propel the fluid through a narrow tube which determines the flow rate. The device may include means to detect a fault condition, such as air in, or blockage of, the infusion line and to activate an alarm.(b)

Device Description:

The Belmont® Rapid Infuser, RI2, (same as the existing Rapid Infuser) combines advanced microprocessor technology with an efficient mechanical system to provide a high speed, simple and safe system for rapid infusion of warmed fluid. . The Rapid Infuser infuses blood, replacement IV fluids or irrigation fluids warmed to physiologic temperature at user-set rates from 10 to 1000 milliliters per minute (ml/min). A low infusion rate at 2.5 ml/min (150 ml/hr) is also available without heating.

The system monitors temperature, line pressure, and air in the fluid path to ensure safe operation and alarms at all unsafe conditions. A hardware override circuit prevents unsafe operation in case

of system computer failure. A touch screen displays flow rate, total fluid infused, temperature, line pressure, alarm and status messages and proper procedures to proceed safely after an alarm situation.

A battery backup allows for mobile transport of the patient and system. During battery operation, fluid warming is disabled while pump operation and safety monitoring remain active.

The Belmont® Rapid Infuser, R12, is for use in high blood loss surgical procedures, trauma and any situation where rapid replacement of warmed blood or replacement fluid at 10 - 1000 ml/min is required. It can also be used to deliver irrigation fluids at rates up to 1000 ml/min.

Corporation is claiming Belmont Instrument substantial equivalence of the Belmont® Rapid Infuser, RI2, to the Belmont® Rapid Infuser which was originally cleared to market under 510(k) K972284 on November 13, 1997, and to the Belmont® Rapid Infuser 750 ml/min flow rate was cleared to market under 510(k) K032674 on September 16, 2003, and to the Belmont® Rapid Infuser 1000 ml/min flow rate was cleared to market under 510(k) K091855 on July 1, 2009.

The Belmont® Rapid Infuser has been in clinical use for more than 14 years; consequently a component used in the system had become obsolete and hard to obtain. Therefore, the system hardware (chip replacement), and software (to correspond with the chip changes) have been upgraded. At the same time, we are using a brighter monochromatic display with a higher contrast LCD to improve visibility. We have performed a rigorous validation to ensure that these updates are backward compatible with our existing system and no major functions have been altered.

Conclusion:

The Belmont® Rapid Infuser, RI2, is substantially equivalent to the Belmont® Rapid Infuser which received 510(k) approval at various times. Both systems are capable of high infusion flow rates, infusate at physiological while maintaining temperature, and both systems are suitable for use with blood products. Both systems monitor flow rate, temperature, line pressure, and the presence of air at the input line or within the system, and alarm and stop the system at all unsafe conditions.

The tests demonstrate that the Belmont® Rapid Infuser, R12, is substantial equivalent and performs as well as the legally marketed device.
